About Us
Panayotis Rent a Car / MotoRent in Kythira is more than just a car rental company. It is a life story that began in 1981 and continues today, guided by the same core values: hard work, hospitality, and respect for people.
The company was founded by Panagiotis Defterevos, who started with only two motorcycles and a strong belief in himself. Growing up in a poor family in Kythira, he had to balance school with taking care of his family’s sheep, leaving little time for studying. Many told him he would never succeed. But he had already made his decision. “I will succeed.”
Through determination, persistence, and dedication, those two motorcycles gradually became the largest car and motorbike rental fleet in Kythira. More importantly, he built something far greater than a business — a relationship of trust with the people who visit the island.
His genuine love for people and his warm, sincere hospitality made him unforgettable to every customer. The smile with which he welcomed visitors was never just professional — it was heartfelt. That same smile remains the soul of Panayotis Rent a Car / MotoRent today.
