What type of car is recommended for driving in Liberia?

The terrain on roadways in Liberia can be a bit unpredictable—the rainy season can wreak havoc on the roads, causing grounds to washout, resulting in potholes or even missing segments of the road.

While there are shuttle and bus services that bring visitors into the city from the airport or other locations, public transportation within Liberia is limited, making taxis one of the most viable modes of transport. By securing a Liberia car rental, travelers can have the autonomy and flexibility to travel throughout the city without being restricted by ride availability and without having to waste time waiting for a ride to arrive. What’s more, independent vehicles will put off-the-beaten-path locations within reach and will allow travelers to determine arrival and departure times for outings. Coupled with the affordability of rental vehicles in Liberia, the option is also cost-effective.
The Daniel Oduber Quiros International Airport, otherwise referred to as the Liberia Costa Rica Airport (LIR), hosts several car rental kiosks for rental companies, including Enterprise, Budget, Avis, National, Sixt, and Europcar, among others. There are representatives for the companies at the airport, so whether you have a reservation or not, you can usually grab a car rental in Liberia from here. As you’re exiting the terminal, you’ll find rental desks to the far left of the building, with vehicles in the adjacent parking lot.
The road systems throughout Costa Rica were updated to include stoplights at several intersections where previously there had only been stop signs, however, in many of these updated locations, the original stop signs were not removed, so the intersection includes both forms of traffic instruction. If you come across such an intersection while driving your car rental in Liberia, you will want to take heed of the traffic light—if the light indicates green, proceed through the intersection without stopping.
The months of January through early May tend to be peak tourist season in Liberia since these are the driest months of the year. Travelers can expect roadways to be more congested during these periods, especially given the fact that limited public transportation options encourage visitors to rent personal vehicles. Drivers in rental cars should stay alert on these more crowded roadways, particularly when it comes to buses and 18-wheelers, as they often do not yield to passenger cars—it is recommended to let these types of vehicles pass. Also stay alert for motorcyclists, bicyclists, and pedestrians.
Book your rental car in Liberia at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

It is best to rent an SUV or 4x4 for getting around the area. Do your research on car rental in Costa Rica as the fees differ from most countries.

julius andreiDec 2023

Very useful for those who are willing to drive around and explore. If you’re planning to just stay at a hotel or all-Inclusive resort, and occasionally do excursions outside your lodging then it may not be worth renting a vehicle. Transportation to and from the hotels/ resorts are expensive but still cheaper than having to rent a vehicle.

Driving is always an adventure in Liberia or anywhere in Costa Rica. Parking is very limited at times and road signs/directions are non-existent. Drive carefully and walk as much as possible and your stress level will be lowered tremendously.

Payless has great customer service for the situation we were out in. The insurance prices are crazy but at the end of the day it wasn’t Payless fault. This is a country requirement that we did understand prior to booking. The pick up was easy and Luis was great!! Drop off was simple as well and super friendly. Car was cleaned when we picked up and that was appreciated.

No problem being picked up from Liberia Airport to off-site pickup location . . . It was either a pay an extra $419 for " a 'mandatory' 3rd person collision insurance" or no rental!!!!

It took them 45-60 minutes to check out each guest, were understaffed, and were not communicative about the situation. They were oversold and did not have the car we reserved.

Borderline scam, and I place about 60% blame on Expedia/carrentals.com/kayak. When I came to pick up the car, the price suddenly doubled due to the “mandatory” liability insurance that was not at all disclosed in any of the previous communications from CarRentals.com or Avis. Moreover, I had to reach out to the (superb) Amex support team to get a letter of coverage (at night in a foreign country) to avoid having to buy optional CDW insurance from Avis as well. Again, this was in no way disclosed at any time between the booking and the pickup. A terrible way to start a great vacation! I recommend looking up an independent car rental company and skipping both Avis and these middlemen.

Used a credit card that has full coverage insurance for 30 days. However once we arrived the agent wanted a letter with our name and card number stating the coverage. Credit card company could not provide the letter in a day therefore we were charged an extra $40 per day for Avis insurance coverage. We witnessed serval people with same problem. We did not have the same problem last year when we booked with another car rental company.

Hertz price does not reflect true price. Upon arrival they state Costa Rica law you must get insurance from them only. So if one pays from the site they have to pay again. Should be told before booking if that’s the law. And reflect the price correctly. False advertising and price alteration not great for consumers.

Everything was fine except for letting me know at the counter I had to buy liability insurance in Costa Rica that is the law. I have car insurance through my credit card but was told unless provided a letter stating it covers liability and gave them a $5,000 deposit, I had to buy their insurance. The insurance ended up costing more than the car charges. This is something that should be explained prior to making a reservation.

We were told that insurance would b $15-20 a day, and it ended up bein $80 / day and cost more than the rental itself. We compared the charge to the other family who joined us and rented via Hertz, and our insurance cost was 3x what they were charged. We do plan to dispute this charge with our credit card company and will be giving a negative review on google, yelp, etc.

They charged me triple what kayak quoted me, gave me a massive song and dance about how kayak and all 3rd party places are scams and I shouldn’t use them. Gas gauge on the rig was broken to always show full, discovered the truck was down 12 liters of diesel when I picked it up. I still did the ethical thing and topped it off to fill before drop off. The big kicker!! The G-D airport shuttle guy has taken the rest of the day off and I had to pay $15 US for a taxi 1.5 miles down the road! This was at like 8:40 PM when they advertise shuttle is available until 10 pm.

I have rented a car previously in Costa Rica. You have to understand that the price you are going to pay will be more them what you see here. They have a national insurance that is required no matter whether you have coverage on your credit card or your personal insurance. It typically adds $12-$13 additional per day. They also have other insurances that are OPTIONAL. You have to be careful because many unscrupulous rental agencies will try to tack these on additionally. If your credit card or insurance will cover you for renting the car then you need to bring documentation of such and show them to the rental agency. At National, as soon as I showed them this documentation I was able to decline the other VERY EXPENSIVE optional coverages. At some other agencies, this was not quite as easy and I did end up having to pay for some of the additional coverages despite the documentation. Make sure you do your research before you rent a car in Costa Rica. It definitely is different than renting it in the States.

Hidden fees and required insurance resulted in a 3x increase to quoted rate from website. Instead of $246.93, total cost was $735.13. Kayak is a joke. This is the ultimate rip-off as there was no way to accurately compare REAL cost of the rental. Further, the front end of this car was in terrible shape. At the first bump encountered, the left front end slammed loudly - which was an indicator of a car that was unsafe to drive. Very disappointed is an understatement.

My prepaid insurance through your website was not honored. I had to spend $250 extra just on the insurance. The car was 5 years old and beat up. It had 110000 kilometers on the odometer. I reserved automatic and I was offered a manual transmission for the same money. Major disappointment. Also they requested $1,000.00 deposit!!! That’s way far from the industry standard.

The car was not in amazing shape. But for us, that was totally fine. It got us up some steep hills and winding, rocky Costa Rican roads. Totally had enough power, got us everywhere but not much of a looker :) Certainly not a Toyota Land Cruiser. But completely funcional.

1) My reservation amount was completely different than what they ended up charging me: I had a reservation for 359 usd and they ended up charging me 544. My boyfriend got them down to the right amount. I knew to expect them to add all the extras and I successfully denied insurance by bringing my CC insurance certificate. I have to say that after we went back to complain she was able to reduce the amount to what it was supposed to be. 2) Car flooded: The rental car clearly had a faulty seal near the windshield because when it rained in Costa Rica, water was pouring in at our feet. It continued to drip for a whole week which made driving quite annoying and wet when it shouldn’t have. 3) car made some freaky noises: The car made questionable sounds intermittently. Usually when turning and breaking. Good things: -return was super easy -I liked that they had a sheet to review and sign off on current damage and suggested we video the car. -they did eventually return the extra charges when we ended up catching them. But this delayed our trip but 1.5 h and we ended up driving after sunset

Our connecting flight got delayed and we missed our flight to Costa Rica by a day. Tried calling them directly to let them know that we would be coming in later than expected. No one answered their phones. Upon arrival the next day they had to offer us a new contract because of the date change. This was fine but they were going to charge us more money for less days due to this (150$ USD). We ended up going with another company. Pretty disappointing.

Budget Costa Rica is a total rip off and has terrible customer service. If you happen to get COVID and need to return the car late they charge you an insane amount and have no compassion for the situation other than laughing at you. Avoid.

The car was dirty when we picked it up, and had faulty windshield wipers. Also, contrary to what we were told by Europcar when we made the online booking, the Europcar agency in Costa Rica did not honour the insurance we have via our Visa card, even though we provided a letter from the insurance company (Manulife, one of the biggest in Canada). Also, when we made the online booking, Europcar informed us that we needed to purchase an international driver's licence for Costa Rica. That information turned out to be incorrect. Not a good experience with Europcar.

Cost was supposed to be $224.97 for a week, plus I paid about $88 for Allianz insurance when I booked stateside. On arrival at the rental place in Costa Rica I was told the Allianz insurance only covers collision, and I also need liability insurance. Not sure if this is true or a scam, but ended up paying $495 for the week (rental plus cheapest liability insurance option). The car had 74,000 miles. Low pressure light came on on the last day, so i had to have the gas station pump up the tires, though fortunately did not go flat.

Worse car rental experience ever! After deciding to drop off the car sooner than originally planned, I have visited the office to discuss my refund options and was given a refund breakdown by the front desk person. However, on the day of the return, they gave me a completely different refund amount (HALF of what i was told originally), tried to threaten me, and challenged me to submit a claim with my CC company! After multiple emails back and forth with their "customer service team", they were still unable to provide me with the refund breakdown calculation, and then just ignored my emails all together. I am working through a CC claim at this point. STAY CLEAR, they are obviously struggling, and will rip you off without a second thought.

They forced us to get super expensive insurance. Then they said we put a ding in the car and made us pay extra for the repairs. I will be disputing the charge entirely.

Passenger van

We booked for $238, when we arrived we were driven to a remote area. We were then shown a beat up van, told it would be another $383 for MANDATORY insurance and ANOTHER $1600 for a refundable deposit! I was told if I wanted to cancel I could, but they couldn’t guarantee I would get my prepaid 2 $238 back. The van had a horrible sound underneath in the axle and could barely drive up the hills on the main highways. The only positive experience, was when I texted the actual owner, he had them bring 2 nice Suzukis to replace it. I was happily surprised with how well the change out went. The first part was VERY stressful, but it all worked out okay. I would say 80% of their fleet is pretty busted though. Just know what you are getting into.

Terrible check in experience. Charged 3 times the cost of car for insurance at pickup. Took nearly an hour to get checked in with only two customers in front of us. Other customers left unhappy too due to hidden fees and not having 4x4 vehicles that were requested. Beat up car but mechanically sound. Definitely avoid!

This is a scam. Rental car is asking separate insurance through them which they quoted $980.00 despite me buying comprehensive insurance through Kayak/ Allianz. Also they wanted $3000 deposit. Ended up not renting the car. Please read reviews from other travelers and save vacationers being scammed in a foreign country. Thanks.

Bait and switch. Horrible customer service. 1st the reserved car is not available… NOTHING comparable. Price is nothing even close to quoted price. (Of course there may be some slight differences) but this was off by HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS. We were so upset we said ok we will rent for one day to just get to hotel and drive to another rental place tomorrow. He says “one day price is same as 6 day price!!!!” Vehicle he tried to offer smelled so bad of cigarettes and mowed lawn. It looked like it was used as a gardener's vehicle for quite some time. He did not even try to offer a comparable vehicle!!! Our luggage would not fit in what he offered. Luckily we walked NEXT DOOR TO Amigo car rental and had outstanding service!

The car was a total wreck. 4 different and really used up tires. One of them had a slow leak that we had to take care every 100km. We had to remove and put back the 2 front mud guards because they were flopping. Final note, water was getting inside the car every big rain. During the rain season in costa rica.... Never again.

The car was OK (Toyota RAV4), but had over 110k kilometers and was 6 years old. The annoying part is that they keep giving half-empty tanks on pick-up. That way they never have to refuel their cars, as people always return more gas than what they pick up (practically impossible to return the same amount). In case you return less, you get charged for gas. I rented a few times from them, as well as our friends once, and the same thing happened every single time. One time the tank was 1/8 full, so we practically had to drive directly to a gas station. The company regularly has the lowest rates, but their fleet has by far the oldest cars, compared to other rental companies around the airport.

This is not a real business. They lie about the amount you have to pay in Costa Rica taxes. They take one hour to pick us up from the airport. Cars and installation is a rundown. Horrible experience.

The pick up was not good - very hard to find van, took 30-40 minutes just to get picked up (while many other car rental agency vans came and went). Car itself was not good - over 175k miles, ancient features, no audio, could barely make it up large hills, could not accelerate at all (which is a problem on Costa Rica roads). The best part was the drop off process - that was very quick and easy.

If comfort and safety are of no interest to you then this is your car! Still have a big binder of CDs laying around the house from your teens? Hate back up cameras and automatic transmissions? Think those pesky key fobs are just and inconvenience? This is the car for you! If you would like to double the price for the “mandatory insurance” and get a hold put on your credit card for the entire value of the vehicle, this is the car for you! One positive is that even if you forget something in the car no one is breaking in, because you have the worst car in the lot no matter where you go! Honestly, it’s a shame that kayak recommends places like this. I thought that maybe other rental companies didn’t operate in Costa Rica so this was a good option… turns out all the major car rental companies are there and it doesn’t cost any more than this place. The staff was nice enough, just doing their job… but you can get that most places.

The advertised/agreed-upon price is not the same as the price presented by hertz/firefly when you show up to the store store. The google reviews are poor for this store and are correct. The company forces you to provide an insurance letter from your credit card company and forced us to purchase 3d party collision insurance and more than doubled the agreed-upon price.
