Easy Rental Car Pickup at Maurice Bishop Airport
A Spice Isle Welcome at GND Arrivals
When you walk out of customs at Maurice Bishop International Airport, a Final Rentals team member is ready to greet you. They hold a sign with your name, so finding us is easy. We check your booking, give you the keys, and show you how the car works. Then you can start your trip around the Spice Isle.
We Track Your Flight Landing
Final Rentals follows your flight to Grenada from start to finish. If your plane lands early, we get your car ready sooner. If it lands late, we move your pickup time. You never wait for no reason, even when flights change times.
Fast Check-In for Pre-Booked Guests
Book online first, and you can use our fast check-in at GND. You skip the long rental line and go straight to a special counter. Your papers are ready, and your keys come quickly. We still walk around the car with you and write down any small marks.
Returning Your Car Is Easy
Giving your car back at the airport is simple. Drive to the Final Rentals return spot. Our team checks the car in a few minutes. You get a return confirmation, and then you walk to the terminal. The airport is close to the main beach area, so the last drive is short, but we still help you plan extra time.
Flights at Any Hour
Some flights land late at night or leave very early in the morning. Final Rentals can meet you at these times too. Tell us your flight time when you book. We can set up a safe key handover or key drop and a short car check with you.
Bag Help at the Curb
We help you carry your bags at the curb when you pick up or return the car. We put your suitcases in the trunk and take them out at the end. This helps families, couples on holiday, and divers with heavy gear.
Plan Your First Drive With Us
Driving on the left can feel new at first. Before you leave, we show you the way to your hotel, Grand Anse Beach, or St. George's. We tell you about narrow roads, steep hills, and busy bus stops. This helps first-time visitors feel calm and ready.
Simple Payment
You can pay for your rental at the airport desk. Final Rentals takes major credit cards. We show you the full price and any extras before you sign. The local currency is the Eastern Caribbean dollar (EC$ 2.70). Our team can answer easy questions about money.
Car Close to the Door
There is no shuttle bus and no long wait. Your car is parked close to the terminal. This saves time and keeps your first hour on the island easy.
Questions? We Are Here
The Final Rentals desk at Maurice Bishop International Airport is your place for help. Need an extra driver, a child seat, or a 4x4 for hill roads? Ask us. Our team knows the airport and the island roads well, so we can answer right away.
What to Know Before You Rent a Car at Maurice Bishop Airport?
Collecting Your Car
After you land at Maurice Bishop International Airport (GND), clear customs, get your bags, and walk to the arrivals exit. A Final Rentals team member waits near the car rental area. Bring your home driving licence, your passport, and a credit card in the main driver's name. A photo or phone copy is not enough.
Papers and the Temporary Driving Permit
Visitors need a temporary Grenada driving permit, plus their home licence. The permit costs about EC$60 (about USD $22) and is usually valid for three months. We tell you how to get it and help with the steps. Always keep your permit, licence, rental agreement, and passport with you in the car.
Credit Card Rule
The rental company holds a deposit on your credit card at pickup. It is usually between USD $250 and $600, based on the car and the insurance you pick. You get the money back after you return the car. Cash, debit cards, and prepaid cards do not work for this deposit.
Child Seat Rules
Young children should always ride in a proper child seat or booster that fits their size. Final Rentals can give you a safe, approved seat. Ask for it when you book your car rental online, and it will be ready when you arrive.
Driving Rules and Traffic Rules
In Grenada, you drive on the LEFT side of the road. Speed signs use miles per hour (mph), and speeds are low, about 20 to 30 mph in towns and up to about 40 mph on open roads. The alcohol limit is about 0.08%, but the safest rule is not to drink and drive. Everyone must wear a seatbelt. Do not hold a phone while driving.
Narrow Roads, Deep Drains, and Buses
Many roads are narrow, steep, and full of curves, with little room on the sides. Deep drains run next to some roads, so do not drive too close to the edge. Local minibuses stop fast to pick up people, so leave extra space. Drivers often give a short beep to say hello or to warn others at a blind corner.
Rain and Hill Driving
The wet season runs from June to November, and heavy rain can make hill roads slippery. Hurricane season is also from June to November, so watch the weather news. Drive slowly on wet roads, and try to be back at your hotel before dark, because many roads have no street lights.
Insurance and CDW
Every car rental in Grenada comes with basic Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Cover. If the car gets damaged, you pay a set amount first. This is called the excess. Narrow roads, drains, and tight parking spots can cause damage. We suggest Super CDW (Zero Excess) so you worry less.
Age Rules for Renting
Most rentals require drivers to be at least 25 years old. Some may allow drivers from 21 with a young driver fee of about USD $10 to $20 per day. A 4x4 may need an older driver with more years on their licence. Please ask us before you book.
Staying on Grenada and If Your Flight Is Late
Rental cars must stay on the main island of Grenada. They cannot go on the ferry to Carriacou or Petite Martinique. If your flight is late, we usually keep your car for one to two hours after your first pickup time. Book a few weeks early, mainly from December to April, for a better price.

Tell your airline when you book your flight, so staff are ready for you. The airport also has special parking spots and easy-to-use restrooms.

Why This Airport Is Special: Grenada is called the Spice Isle because it grows nutmeg, cinnamon, and cocoa. The airport sits on the southwest tip of the island, so you land with the sea on both sides, and you are minutes from Grand Anse Beach. A car lets you visit waterfalls, rainforest, rum distilleries, and fishing towns in one trip.
