Hiring a Car in Costa Rica: Good to Know
How to Find the Cheap Car Hire Deal in Costa Rica
Plan for Additional Drivers
If sharing driving responsibilities, check the policies regarding additional drivers. Some companies charge fees for each extra driver, while others may include it for free under certain conditions.
Understand fees for multiple driversCheck Your Personal Insurance
Before renting a car, check if your personal car insurance covers rental losses. Many personal auto insurance policies and credit cards offer coverage for rentals, which could save you from extra insurance fees.
Use personal insurance to save costsChoose a fuel policy that saves you money.
When renting a car from Costa Rica, choose a car hire deal with a “Full-to-Full” or “Same-to-Same” fuel policy from suppliers like Ace, Dollar, Sixt,Alamo, These policies ensure you only pay for the fuel you use, helping you avoid unnecessary costs. While a “Full-to-Empty” policy might seem convenient, it can often be more expensive if you don’t use all the fuel.
Choose a cost-effective car hire fuel policyCheck for Free Cancellation Policies
Before finalizing your booking, check if the rental company offers free cancellation. This can provide peace of mind if your travel plans change unexpectedly.
Look for flexible cancellation optionsAllow extra time for car pickup
When renting a car, especially after travelling by train, allocate extra time for pickup to account for possible delays. Most car hire companies offer a 30-60 minute grace period. Sharing your train number can be helpful, but if you're running late, be sure to contact the car hire provider to let them know.
Prepare in advance for a smooth car pickup experienceUnderstand Mileage Policies
Some rental agreements come with mileage limits, while others offer unlimited mileage. Make sure to review the mileage policy to avoid unexpected fees.
Know the mileage limits and feesConfirm Mileage Policy
Some rentals may have mileage caps. Check the details to avoid extra fees if you exceed limits.
Understand mileage limitationsUnderstand Age Restrictions
Be aware that some rental companies impose age restrictions or additional fees for drivers under 25. Make sure to check the company’s age policy when booking.
