At Gumbsie Car Rental, we are always looking for ways to improve the experience we offer our guests. As part of our continued commitment to customer convenience, transparency, and peace of mind, we are excited to introduce our brand new range of vehicle protection packages for 2026.

Whether you are visiting the island for a relaxing holiday, business trip, family vacation, or luxury getaway, our updated protection options are designed to provide greater flexibility and clearer choices for every type of traveller.

More Choice. More Protection. More Peace of Mind.

We understand that every guest travels differently. Some travellers prefer a simple budget friendly option, while others want complete stress free coverage throughout their stay.

That is why we have introduced four easy to understand protection packages:

• Island Basic Protection
• Island Plus Protection
• Island Premium Protection
• Island Platinum Zero Excess

Each package has been carefully designed to provide varying levels of protection, reduced excess options, and additional benefits to suit your travel needs and comfort level.

Why We Updated Our Protection Packages

Over the past year, we listened closely to feedback from our guests. Many customers told us they wanted:

• Simpler and more transparent coverage options
• Lower excess choices
• Better protection for tyres, glass, and minor damage
• Roadside assistance inclusion
• A true zero excess option for complete peace of mind

Our new 2026 protection structure delivers exactly that.

The updated packages make it easier than ever for guests to understand what is included and choose the level of protection that best suits their trip.

Introducing Island Platinum Zero Excess

One of the biggest additions for 2026 is our brand new Island Platinum Zero Excess package.

This premium protection option has been introduced for travellers who want the highest level of confidence during their rental experience. With zero excess responsibility, guests can enjoy the island without the stress of potential damage costs or unexpected financial liability.

Island Platinum is especially popular for:

• Luxury vehicle rentals
• Honeymoon and special occasion trips
• International travellers
• Guests seeking complete peace of mind

No Security Deposit Required

Another major benefit of our updated protection packages is that no security deposit is required across any of our protection options.

This means a smoother and more convenient rental experience for our guests from the moment they arrive.

Designed for Modern Travel

As travel continues to evolve, we believe vehicle protection should be simple, flexible, and customer focused. Our new protection packages reflect the high standards and personalised service that guests expect when renting with Gumbsie Car Rental.

Whether you are looking for affordable basic coverage or premium zero excess protection, we now offer options tailored to every journey.
