Cheap Car Hire in San Juan

When we arrived at the airport around noon, the shuttle appeared quickly right after we picked up our bags. We did not wait for long at the car pickup counter, the checkin process was standard, the only extra thing I had to show was the portion of my car insurance that expressly says Puerto Rico is a part of the covered territories, so we did not have to take additional insurance. The car we got was new and in good condition. In the morning of our flight back, we arrived at the car rental return with about 50 minutes left before departure due to a GPS error, the return was processed very quickly without any issue and the shuttle took us to the terminal immediately so we were on time check in bags and boarding the airplane. Overall it was a positive experience —especially after reading so many negative experiences on various of can rentals in PR. The rental counter did not sell us things we did not need; one thing I suggest renters to get is the enabling of the road toll system at a few dollars a day, as the main roads have electronic toll collections and often don’t give you other payment options.

We reserved a minivan for a family of 6 with luggage. They didn't have the van and didn't really care. It was like that episode of Seinfeld. They provided a small SUV and it took FOREVER! Also, they are NOT located directly at the airport as was stated, rather they are a shuttle ride away. Not the end of the world, but added a few hours on each end of our trip and was totally unexpected. They know once you are there, they have you at their mercy. Spend the extra $$$ and get a real car rental from a legitimate company on the airport grounds.
