Stages of work

  1. 1

    Determine what type of car you need

    If you are traveling with family or a group of friends, you will need a larger vehicle such as an SUV or minivan.

  2. 2

    Check your documentation

    Make sure you have a valid driver's license and that you are familiar with Dominican Republic traffic regulations.

  3. 3

    Carefully inspect the car before renting it

    Check the car body for damage or scratches and make sure all lights and indicators are working properly. Note any pre-existing damage.

  4. 4

    Sign a car rental agreement

    Renting a car in the Dominican Republic can be a convenient and affordable way to explore the island. Enjoy your adventures in the Dominican Republic.

The cheapest car we rent, and the right answer for more people than take it. It uses 4.4-5.4 L/100 km, so one tank covers most of a week of Bavaro driving, and it parks anywhere: the tight streets behind Los Corales, the Jumbo car park on a Saturday afternoon, the verge outside a comedor. The boot takes two large cases with the rear seats up. Four adults with four suitcases is optimistic. The honest limitation is ride height. It sits low, so the tall unpainted speed bumps want taking at walking pace, and the sand track down to Macao will scrape it if you are careless. For two people on paved routes it is the correct car, and nobody here will try to sell you something bigger.

Pay attention! Smoking in the car is strictly prohibited. A fine will be imposed for violating this rule.

Renting for a month or longer

A monthly rental of the Kia Picanto in Punta Cana costs $750 for 30 days — that is $25 a day, about 44% below the daily rate. Insurance, taxes and unlimited mileage are included, exactly as on a short rental, and the deposit does not change. Long stays are common here: people who work remotely from Bávaro or spend a season in the Dominican Republic usually find a month with us cheaper than repeated weekly bookings. Tell us your dates and we will hold the car for the whole period.

Long-term rental questions

Is there a discount for renting a Kia Picanto for a month?
Yes. Thirty days cost $750, which works out at $25 a day — around 44% below the daily rate. Insurance, taxes and unlimited mileage are included, and the deposit stays the same as on a short rental.
What documents do you need for a long-term rental?
A passport with the entry stamp and your national driving licence. We have to see the stamp: a foreign licence is valid in the Dominican Republic for three months from the date you entered the country, so the entry date decides how long you may legally drive.
Can I rent a car for longer than three months?
The car, yes — a foreign licence, no. It stops being valid three months after your entry date, so a longer rental has to be planned around that. Write to us with your dates before you book and we will go through the options together.
