My colleagues & I always use Michaelides Car Rentals in Limassol. The owners name is Demetris Michaelides. He is very flexible and his prices are reasonable. If you need a car, he will drop it off at the airport in Larnaca for you. The taxi fare is equal to one day's hire, so this is a nice perk. His telephone is +357 25 327380 fax +357 25 329582.

If you rent with your credit card and it covers your insurance, don't let him sell you extra insurance (CYP5 per day). Also, you might wish to bring the car back fully tanked versus prepaying CYP25 for a tank, as gas is not as expensive in Cyprus as elsewhere in Europe.

I rented a nice small Peugot 206 last summer and payed CYP 12 per day incl. insurance. I have seen cheaper prices, but then cars were not as new or not as nice. I like his reliability, and as I said, the drop-off/pick-up at the airport is handy.

I see prices advertised for as low as CYP 8 per day, but that is without insurance, so be careful when comparing prices. Obviously, larger cars, SUVs and cabriolets cost more.

1 CYP = $2.26
