We rented from February 17th to 27th, 2026, it was fantastic!

With the full coverage option for €8, we had complete peace of mind!

And we loved how easy it was to communicate via WhatsApp.

And a huge thank you to Joël (French-speaking), who arrived late (midnight) and gave us great advice!

Our experience with Simplycar was unfortunately below expectations.

When we received the vehicle, it was not very clean. The car also had numerous scratches, small dents, and a couple of broken exterior parts, which did not give a good first impression in terms of maintenance and quality control.

A more serious issue was that the road lights were not working properly. Since very few roads in Cape Verde have street lighting, this became a major safety concern. We didn’t notice the problem at pickup because it was daytime, but when we drove back from Tarafal to Praia at night, it was quite problematic and uncomfortable.

Additionally, the customer service was not very friendly, which made the overall experience even less positive.

There is definitely room for improvement.

We rented our 4x4 vehicle (Suzuki Jimny) in Sal, Cape Verde, and were extremely satisfied. Everything went smoothly from pick-up to drop-off. We look forward to renting from Simplycar again on our next visit. Thank you!

Very trustful company, car was very good and very easy to reach even in the evening. Strongly recommend this great company!
I am a regular client as the company is very good, trustful, the cars are very good and cared about, and the people is awesome. Very polite, corteous and customer focused. I recommend Simply Car to anyone visiting Santiago Island and can asure you that you won't be disappointed for sure. Many thanks

Um serviço extraordinário!
Até breve!
Grande abraço

Muito provavelmente, a melhor empresa de aluguer de automoveis na Cidade da Praia. Desde o contacto com inicial pelo whatssap, os envios de orçamentos já por email, o esclarecimento de dúvidas, tudo correu às mil maravilhas. À chegada ao Aeroporto da Praia, já tinhamos a viatura à espera. Foi possivel pagar em euros e na devolução da viatura correu tudo bem, tendo sido devolvida a caução como combinado. Recomendo vivamente.

Well kind of disappointed, I asked if they had any of the cheaper vehicles to rent for either Wednesday or Thursday, but the person I spoke to didnt have any idea if they would or not. I'm not sure how they wouldn't know it should be in the system if they had any vehicles available, either she never checked or didnt have a clue, so she couldn't give me an answer, she just said to message the number on WhatsApp and ask them. I ended up going elsewhere.
