That may be true, but I prefer relaxing on the Groome bus and renting from the local Hertz. I have rented from them many times, it's been very good and I'll continue to do so. It's important for The Villages to offer transportation options.
My suggestion (to make them more competitive) is that they possibly change their hours to 10 am to 6 pm, or make arrangements for off-hours pickup or drop-off similar to what other rental agencies do.

The Villages doesn't offer anything. The Villages is owned by a holding company that has no relation with Groome, Uber, Lyft, any taxi service, other public transportation, or any car rental company.
However, there are LOTS of options. You've just chosen to limit YOUR options by choosing to take a bus in to the Villages from the airport, at a time when the only rental companies that do business IN the Villages area are closed for the night. That is your CHOICE. That is the option YOU chose.
