I have been hiring a small vehicle from the Omega Hire at the above address since November 2012 on a regular basis to date.

“Week's hire”

Written on: 22/04/2013

We hired a car to travel from Auckland to Tauranga and on to Gisborne returning via Napier and Taupo. The staff were friendly and helpful, the car was fine, clean and reliable and, using the sat nav we also hired, we had no trouble during our week travelling. The cost of the week's hire was very reasonable and we would have no hesitation in recommending Omega and will use them again on our next trip to Auckland. (read more)

“It was a good time!”

Written on: 18/04/2013

The staff at Omega was very pleasant, but they could not reverse my payment when I inadvertently paid with the wrong credit card. When we returned the car they were very timely in driving us to the airport. The car was exactly what I was expecting from my e-mail correspondence. The map included with the car could have showed more detail on exactly where the rental agency was located. We had quite a bit of trouble finding it on our return. (read more)

“Omega are excellent.”

Written on: 15/04/2013 by Jimell.

My wife and I have been hiring cars off Omega for quite a few years now and we're always impressed about the excellent service we get from the people we deal with, also the cars and price, often the price goes down the following year and we have never had a problem with any of the cars. We were especially looked after this year when the car was delivered to our hotel on the north shore. We would like to say a special thank you to Vangie Hill and the young man that delivered the car to us,... (read more)

We hired a car from this company 6 years ago and found them to be excellent. We have just returned a car today and the service was excellent again. Well done Omega! Would definitely use them again if we returned to NZ and will recommend them to friends in NZ and friends and family from home. No complaints at all. Good reliable cars and lovely office staff!

“Easy, reasonable, good option if you need a car”

Written on: 09/04/2013

Because they are centrally located on Beach road I was able to walk from my hotel and rent a car for the day. Easy pick up good vehicle, and the option to return late with a minimal parking fee. It would be nice if the car came with a full tank of gas but at least I didn't have to worry about filling it up after my journey. Also hoping that they eventually have an early morning pick up.

Just back from an NZ holiday and could not be more pleased with our Omega Tida 10 day rental. The car was excellent - clean, well maintained, ready to go and the staff on both pick up and return were super efficient. The rates Omega provide are excellent value. We found the shuttle service to/from airport terminal suited us perfectly - much better than the expensive on-site companies where you often have to trudge a distance thru big car-parks with your luggage to collect the car and get...

My husband and I hired a Nissan Sunny for 14 days from Omega Car Rentals in Auckland. Our flight arrived on a Sunday, touching down at 5pm. Less than a hour later we had cleared customs, telephoned Omega, collected our baggage, been picked up by a pleasant minibus driver, completed the paperwork with a very friendly girl at the Omega depot and were on our way to Taupo. All totally hassle-free and a great start to our holiday. Our smoke-free car was spotless inside and was a pleasure to... (read more)

Best car and best hire car company ever used. Best rates, hired a 1999 Nissan Bluebird, 1.8 plently of power for the hills, just purred all the way, good fuel ecomomy. Happy to be able to hire a slighty older car, doesn't have to look perfect just drive well. Staff very helpful and friendly. Was good to find out for the return the airport office was open later than advertised due to summer demand. Perhaps could be advertised due to demand hours can vary so to ask.

Written on: 15/03/2013

We hired a Toyota Previa from Auckland and drove to the Bay of Islands and return. The car was in good condition, worry-free and quite economical given the load of six people and bags - a bit of a squeeze. We picked the car up from the city depot after disembarking from a cruise ship. Unfortunately, the advice we were given about a five minute walk to the depot proved to be wrong with the trip taking closer to 30 minutes. As we had a large group we could leave the bags and 'watchers' at... (read more)

I hired a Mazda Premacy in New Zealand for 3 days, picked up in Auckland City and dropped off at Airport depot. The car had 1800cc engine and was very fuel efficient but not powerful enough for motorways, going 50kph at 2000rpm, 80kph at 3000rpm, 90kph at 3400rpm. It could not really reach the 100kph speed limit in motorways. The cars was also a bit noisy. We could hear the engine roared along the way even with all windows closed.

My wife and i rented a Toyota Corolla from Omega Rentals in Auckland for 2 weeks. When we got there, they came and picked us up(on time) and we went to there office, did a quick sign up, and off we went. The car was clean, full of fuel, and ran like a dream all the time we had it. Cant recommend them enough. The daily rate was very reasonable also. Thanks Omegas, for helping us have a great stay in North Island, New Zealand, and if/when we come back, we will use your company again for sure. (read more)

Omega car hire is great value for money. The cars are neot necessarily in pristine condition but who wants to pay for that. As some who arrived in New Zealand after midnight and had to leave at 0400 in the morning flexible collection and pick up were important to me. The guy at the desk was particularly helpful making suggestions in this regard (read more)

I booked with Omega about 2-3 weeks in advance for a trip from Auckland to Wellington for 5 days. A lot of companies had sold out but Omega had a Toyota Corolla, in great condition, spacious, comfortable and most importantly, great value. Staff in Auckland were very friendly and helpful. One of the staff members when we dropped the car off in Wellington was a bit impolite in telling us where to park the car (there were no bays, so it wasn't obvious).

Written on: 20/01/2013

Omega Cars were great, quite a bit cheaper than the competitors which when you are hiring for two and half weeks makes a real difference. We had a Subaru Legacy which was fine for running about. It was a bit of a tight squeeze in the back for our three kids and in hindsight probably would have gone for something bigger. However enough luggage space and because we weren't doing too much travel it was fine. The car was well used but again when you have kids this was a bonus as then I... (read more)

We were met on time at Auckland airport as arranged by the transfer bus to the local depot. The car was ready, valeted and the paperwork completed without delay. It was not old and drove well (automatic). At Wellington we drove to the depot and was transferred to the Ferry Terminal in the same car. Competitively priced with great service all round. Our only wish was that the depots were on site to save a little time otherwise the rating would be 5 star. Les Cook (read more)

I searched the internet to locate a rental car firm close to the WELLINGTON Airport. Omega's site came up and in reading what you got for your dollar, it was a great deal. Omega offer a shuttle service (saving the parking fee cost of exiting the airport carpark, up to $30, or a 30 minute journey into the city!) Omega's Wellington base is under 2km from the airport, so even shanks pony will get you there, after hours! I was greeted by a warm friendly driver on my arrival. At the yard I... (read more)

Planned out trip around NZ using Omega Car Rentals. The cars are what they say they provide - good quality, late models and supplied clean and ready to go. Really useful for us was pick up at Auckland / drop off at Wellington, followed by pick up at Queenstown and drop-off at Christchurch. The only hitch we had was at Queenstown, where due to our own fault, we had ordered a manual transmission in error. Ten minutes later, an auto was delivered and we were on our way.
