I looked up the insurance policies prior to arriving in Costa Rica after receiving e-mails from AVIS stating that there are optional insurances and upgrades available. I'm covered with all the requirements of Costa Rica through my insurance, plus have additional coverage with my credit card and above and beyond that we have an umbrella insurance policy that covers far beyond any liability waiver that they provide. At the counter they required me to purchase their insurance for $38.99 a day!! I showed them my proof of insurance and then they told me they needed a personal letter from my insurance company to them (not AVIS, but to their office in Liberia). While in line there were two other couples contacting their insurance companies struggling to get a letter faxed to their office. Apparently a digital copy or e-mail wouldn't work either. It is off-airport and once they have you there they make it very inconvenient to leave you there without a car. Additionally they placed a $2,000 hold on my credit card (usually made for those who decline insurance) so that shouldn't have been necessary since I was made to purchase theirs. I later found out that the agents behind the counter are incentivized by commission to sell the insurance and upgrades. The car was suppose to be given to me full - it was 1/2 tank, the front tires were bald, I had to stop and put air in the rear tire. For this reason I will never rent with AVIS again.

If you want to wait 2 hours for your vehicle to be ready despite making the appointment, this is the place to go to.

Know that in Costa Rica there are mandatory insurance fees. In March of 2023 there are two: one is 15.99 a day and the other 29.99 a day. Our credit card offers primary insurance so we printed up a letter from them and brought it with us. This canceled out the 29.99 a day insurance but the 15.99 is required no matter what. These are not included in the quote you receive.

When we first rented the vehicle, we were told we had to purchase extra insurance so we took the highest coverage possible as the attendant told us that we would be covered for everything, When we went out to get the car, we noticed that the tire pressure light was on so we pointed it out to the attendant. He took the car to the back and he told us he filled the tire but not to worry about the light, because the light did not go off. We checked the rear tires which were worn but ok to drive on, and we checked the front driver side tire and it was brand new so we assumed that both front tires had been changed. We drove to our rental property in LaFortuna and drove around the area for a couple of days. We then noticed that there was a wobble in the wheel so when we checked it out we saw that the tire on the front passenger side was totally worn out and had threads showing - this is the one tire that we did not check when we picked up the car. We drove to the AVIS office in LaFortuna and he strongly suggested that we change the tire as it was dangerous to continue driving on the tire as it was. However, he did not have one in the office. So we put the spare tire on the car. We returned the next day and he told us he was unable to get a new tire for us but he could get us a different rental vehicle. We returned the following day to exchange our vehicle - the new vehicle was not 4 wheel drive and it was smaller than our original vehicle but we agreed to swap it. They did not offer to charge us less because we were getting less of a vehicle but they told us they would be charging us for the tire. So we had to pay a higher price for less of a vehicle plus the cost of a new tire even though the tire was in that shape when we originally drove away with the car. They accused us of overturning the wheel on the front passenger side. One of the men in our party is a mechanic and he asked them to explain how it is possible to spin only one tire on an AWD, they just kept repeating that we had to pay for the tire. We have been trying to talk to someone who can explain why the tire is not covered by our insurance and why we had to pay for it, but no one can answer us. So disappointing.
Pickup and drop off the staff were fantastic with no hassles. Alex in Liberia was fantasitic and got us on our way very quickly. The staff in Uvita were great as well.

Ana in Nosara was very helpful & Steven & Jean Paul in SanJose we’re excellent. All of them were helpful, great to work with, and gave great customer service. A plus people!
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.

Vehicle was in terrible shape. Missing buttons, dents everywhere, and dirty. Why don’t they mention that we need to pay for INS insurance when we book, I don’t know. It’s a total rip off.

Economy Rent-a-Car posts a low price on services like Kayak/Priceline- but then when you get to the pickup spot in Costa Rica you learn that mandatory insurance will cost you much more than the cost of the car. At that point you have little choice but to either get no car, or pay the overage, as the booking is non-refundable. It feels upsetting and dishonest. Please stop recommending Economy in Costa Rica.

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.
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.
