Otherwise I would go with @Ree723: 's Ergo suggestion. I wouldn't rent a car unless you guys were already planning to do stuff outside of the resort. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/car-rental-or-shuttlecab#post-1188929 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 17:38:38 +0000 Ree723 1188929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've travelled a few places with LO where we just used a shuttle or a taxi without car seats. Usually I pop LO in my Ergo and then put my seatbelt on over that, configuring it in a way that won't crush LO but will prevent LO and I from flying out of the car if we were to get in an accident. </p> <p>To be honest, I wouldn't pay all the extra money and have the hassle of dealing with a rental car for a 15 mile journey. If you were going to be using the car a lot, sure, but if it's solely to get to your hotel from the airport at the start and end of your journey, I wouldn't bother. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/car-rental-or-shuttlecab#post-1188623 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 15:02:00 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1188623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't want to drive in the Bahamas either! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/car-rental-or-shuttlecab#post-1188569 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 14:33:59 +0000 LindsayInNY 1188569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can you use a shuttle company that offers car seats? Or bring your own to use? We've been to the Bahamas and didn't need a car at all. Nor would I want to drive one there! I would die, LOL! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/car-rental-or-shuttlecab#post-1188405 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 13:38:26 +0000 chopsuey 1188405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you think we should rent a car + toddler seats when we travel to the Bahamas..?</p> <p>Or should we take a shuttle/cab sans seat..?</p> <p>I'm leaning more towards the rental + seats even though it'll cost a lot more. </p> <p>Thanks! </p>
