Answers to popular questions

Prices can vary based on the company, the season, and the vehicle, but most locations offer discounts if you reserve a car prior to your arrival in Puerto Jiménez. The cheapest automatic cars cost from 15$ to 27$ per day. Larger cars can be more expensive due to their higher fuel consumption, so you may want to choose a smaller vehicle, which will also be advantageous on narrower roads.
There is always an increase in demand for car rentals in Puerto Jiménez during the summer months, which drives up the prices. During the off-season, particularly the winter, the prices are significantly lower. The duration of your rental also affects the total price. Typically, renting a vehicle for a longer period of time results in a lower daily rate, thus a five-day rental may cost only somewhat more than a three-day rental. If possible, consider spending at least a week exploring Puerto Jiménez.

Even if you caused the damage, third-party insurance is usually included in the rental price. This insurance does not cover car or driver damage.
Many base contracts include a large deductible (damages not insured by the rental provider). If you cause an accident, you must pay the contract's deductible to repair the rental car. You can add extra insurance to your rental to cover car damage. Did you know that some banks cover you when traveling if you used your card to pay?

Traveling by car lets you explore at your own pace. It's nice to be able to avoid congested bus or rail schedules and travel early or late.

You can rent almost any kind of car in Puerto Jiménez, from small, cheap cars to high-end ones. Here are some things you might want to think about:

A size of the car: A bigger car may be more comfortable on the highway, but many beautiful villages in Puerto Jiménez have narrow streets. Parking garages are often small, and getting in and out of them can be a nightmare. Ford Ka is the most well-liked model among economy classes in Puerto Jiménez. From EUROPCAR the daily rate for this vehicle begins at 12$. For those who want some extra comfort and have the appropriate budget, EAST COAST is ready to offer a Business-class model - Nissan Maxima, price starts at 60$ per day.
Most rental cars in Puerto Jiménez are manual, but more and more automatic cars are becoming available. Automatic cars usually cost more to rent, and if your license only lets you drive an automatic car, you won't be able to rent a stick shift car.

All car rental agencies allow booking the vehicle's main features but not a specific model. Because a specific model can break, be in an accident, be kept by the prior tenant, etc. Your voucher code sets the main parameters (e.g. CDAR). Code decoding:

Major car rental agencies are slowly starting to accept debit cards, but you should verify this before making a reservation because it remains the exception rather than the rule.
