Renting A Car

Renting a Car in Costa Rica

Renting a car is one of the best ways to explore Costa Rica, giving you the freedom to visit beaches, national parks, and off-the-beaten-path spots at your own pace. However, the process can be confusing, with unexpected fees and deceptive policies. We’ve rented cars in Costa Rica more times than we can count, and these are the two companies that we trust.

Adobe Rent A Car

100% Recommended

Adobe consistently offers transparent pricing, no hidden fees, full insurance options, and great customer service. Their cars are well-maintained, and they have locations at both San José (SJO) and Liberia (LIR) airports, as well as other major destinations.

We’ve negotiated a discount off their publicly available rate when using this reservation form or this booking link. The discount is around 5-15% and varies throughout the year, but it’s always cheaper than the generally advertised price. Enter your travel information for a no-commitment price quote.

Why We Recommend Adobe:

  • No hidden fees or surprise charges
  • Includes basic insurance in the upfront quote
  • Well-maintained vehicles
  • Excellent customer service in English & Spanish

Only If Using Our Contact

Need a second price quote? We used to rent from Economy regularly and never had major issues. However, we’ve heard a lot of negative feedback about their standard service. If you want to quote a price or rent from Economy, we only recommend doing so through our personal contact, who provides a more reliable and hassle-free experience.
