Answers to popular questions

A rental car typically costs 26$ a day. However, the costs start at 9$ per day and can go as high as 96$ per day. The final price is directly influenced by the category of rental vehicles, the vehicle's features, your age, the date of booking, the length of the rental, etc.

By law, you must have third-party liability insurance when you rent a car in Puerto Jiménez. Most car rental companies do this for you and charge you the same price.
Theft coverage and Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) are recommended, but not required.

When going on vacation, renting a car in Puerto Jiménez gives you the freedom to go wherever you want, whenever you want, and on your own schedule. Because of this, it is virtually always a smart decision to get behind the wheel.It is always beneficial to have the freedom to travel during times that are less likely to be crowded on public transportation, such as early in the morning or late at night, should you find that to be more convenient.

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. Fiat Panda is the most well-liked model among economy classes in Puerto Jiménez. From EUROPCAR the daily rate for this vehicle begins at 12$. For those who want some extra comfort and have the appropriate budget, EAST COAST is ready to offer a Business-class model - Audi A6, price starts at 50$ 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:

The same card must be used to guarantee the rental agreement when you pick up the vehicle. We accept two types of cards:

We will accept a credit card as a guarantee. Our front desk staff is not permitted to accept a credit card if it is not clearly designated as such.
