KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Santiago de los Caballeros

  • While there are public transportation options within the city, securing a car rental in Santiago de los Caballeros is one of the best ways to guarantee access to the various attraction sites. Rental prices on the island are reasonable, making renting a car preferable in comparison with grabbing taxis and rideshares for your travels. What’s more, with a rental, you’ll have space to cart along any gear you may need for the day. If you choose to take a day trip to Puerto Plata along the seacoast, which is roughly between 1h and 1h 30min north, a rental car gives you the flexibility to make the trip on your own time. Alternatively, if you choose to explore some of the local wildlife parks, a car will get you there.
  • To pick up your Santiago de los Caballeros car rental from the Cibao International Airport (STI), also known as Santiago Airport, you’ll need to head toward the exit of the main passenger terminal. On the right, before leaving the building, there are desks for rental companies that include Hertz, Budget and Enterprise, among others. Within the city, there are additional rental locations, including both Budget and Alamo on Ave. Juan Pablo Duarte.
  • While driving in Santiago de los Caballeros, you’ll want to stay attentive to the roads and other drivers, as locals tend to have a more relaxed approach to complying with traffic laws. Also to note: If there is a traffic accident, regardless of who is at fault, typically all involved parties are apprehended until the details can be worked out and the matter is resolved. So, should your trip include traveling through the mountains or navigating more rural roadways, you’ll want to stay particularly vigilant. It is also highly recommended that you secure the proper insurance for your rental.
  • A majority of the working population in Santiago de los Caballeros commutes to work via car, which means that the hours just before and just after the normal workday can increase the time spent commuting. If your schedule allows for flexibility, we recommend hitting the road outside of these rush hours, which are typically from 7:30am to 9am and then again from 4:30pm until about 6pm.
  • Book your rental car in Santiago de los Caballeros at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Economy rental cars in Santiago de los Caballeros are around 73% cheaper than other car types, on average

FAQs about renting a car in Santiago de los Caballeros

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Santiago de los Caballeros?

    You’ll find that a suitable car rental in Santiago de los Caballeros is an economy or compact car. Both of these vehicle types offer a great deal of agility, and their small size is accommodating when you hope to park in tighter spots. If, however, you plan to use Santiago de los Caballeros as a launching point for day trips, whether it’s to the beaches or into the mountains, the better vehicle option for your trip is a compact SUV—the higher driver’s seat provides better visibility while the elevated drivetrain offers better clearance on bumpy roads.

  • What’s the speed limit in Santiago de los Caballeros?

    The speed limits that you can expect to find in Santiago de los Caballeros vary depending upon the type of road. Typically, speed limits posted within the city are around 40mph.

    Parking spaces are abundant in the city but can be difficult to find as spots fill up quickly. A good option is Parqueo Tienda, a parking garage located at Santiago De Los Caballeros 51000. Parking costs range from free in many parking places to around RD$1,446 ($25) per week at the airport.

I booked through Kayak and it showed Allianz which I guess was a middleman for Nelly or Ace rentals. There they informed that the insurance coverage I paid for thru Allianz does not apply in the D.R. and I had to buy it there. That I could call Allianz and ask for a refund. The $ 29 daily rate plus full coverage cost $117 plus what I paid through Allianz. Will not go through Kayak again unless I can get a refund.

Pros:

Car was fine. They had a very limited selection and had to force upgrade me (which cost me more in gas).

Cons:

They did NOT accept the Allianz insurance I had purchased online via Kayak and insisted I purchase their insurance. This more than doubled the cost of the rental. Allianz did refund me, but Kayak should not offer this option if Hertz will not accept it.

Pros:

When we went to pick up the car, we were told that they didnt have any cars available. There were others cars on the lot at a much higher price. Very disappointed as we were on vacation and were left in limbo at the last second.

Cons:

That they would’ve notified us ahead of time of the availability of cars. At a minimum they should had let us rent a car of our choosing at the same or lower rate as our reservation.

Nothing at all, I was supposed to get a certain car and it was not available at all. So I had to go to another company and pay more money.

The SUV I rented only had 1/8 tank of gas to start with. The white cloth seats were filthy. It looked like some mechanics had sat in there in their dirty work clothes. The rental and return process is rather lengthy, in spite of having a reservation and returning on time.

Extreme additional requirements not listed when reservation was made for example $1500 deposit and pushy about adding additional insurance. When we already had coverage because of our American Express. Car was in poor condition and had several damages to the body of the car that they were aware of but had not repaired . Front desk staff was also rude and took a very long time to process paperwork for a reservation that was made way in advancez

First off, I was disappointed that I was being charged about $25 more at the counter than what my agreement stated, then I noticed the car was a lot smaller then what I reserved, When I got in the car I noticed the cigarette lighter port wasn’t working to charge my phone. I was trying to get a replacement vehicle and was told there isn’t another one to give me at 1st. Since it was 5am I was tired and the going back and forth was overwhelming so I ultimately canceled the whole rental. After I left I was looking over my rental agreement and motive that I was going to get charged a lot more for the car insurance which was all supposed to be declined in the 1st place. So why was I being charged for car insurance after I told the person at the counter that I already purchased case insurance thru Kayak. I’ll NEVER return to Avis again. BUNCH OF CROOKS ..

Pros:

Some of the staff were helpful and apologetic about all the issues we encounter.

Cons:

The vehicle was not available at the time we landed. Had to get a cab to my hotel and come back the next day, we were a large family therefore very difficult to get to the hotel and back, especially as our plane arrived at midnight. The vehicle they gave us didn't have the proper license plate and the staff called me through my whole trip trying to have me come back for them to make do the paperwork. Also, they charge me bogus charges that were not included on my original reservation, on their words, those are country charges.
