Rental car insurance
One of the most important aspects to look at when renting a car in Curacao is how the rental car is insured. Of course, if you suffer a collision or other damage, you don’t want to have to deal with all sorts of extra costs and a lot of hassle. That’s why we are very clear about this: every car rented via NaarCuracao.com is always properly insured. By default you rent the car WA insured, and if you want even more security you can insure the rental car All-Risk for only XCG 15 per day extra.
Rental car at Hato airport
If you want to take your own rental car directly to your accommodation upon arrival in Curacao, that can be arranged. For a small surcharge, you will be picked up/dropped off and can quickly drive yourself to the accommodation in your rental car.
No deposit in advance
Another great advantage of our car rental partner in Curacao is that they work without a deposit. Many car rentals in Curacao require a deposit of easily a few hundred euros. Not at the car rental we work with.
Young drivers
With the major international car rentals, it is not possible to rent a car as a young driver (under 23 yrs.). The local car rental we work with understands that even the younger tourist on Curaçao cannot live without a car. Hence, they do make it possible for young drivers to rent a car. You do have a slightly increased deposit with this, but of course you get it back in full if you return the car damage-free afterwards.
Children’s chair
If you are a young family going for a wonderful vacation to Curacao, then you don’t feel like the hassle of lugging your own car seat for the children on the plane. You don’t have to; for only XCG 10 per day (about €5) you simply rent your car seat with it so the kids are safe in the car, too.
Selection criteria local car rental
The local car rental company we work with was not chosen lightly. They meet a number of criteria that we consider important in car rentals:
- Cars are tiptop: neatly maintained, neatly cleaned and no inconveniences.
- 24×7 roadside assistance available
- Standard well insured
- Second driver co-insured for free.
- Unlimited mileage at no additional cost.
- Payment by credit card is possible, but not required.
- English-speaking management
- You will be picked up from your accommodation and brought to your rental car free of charge
- Clear terms and conditions without ‘fine print’
Considerations for car rental on Curacao
What should you pay attention to when renting a car in Curacao? We list the tips for you:
- Absolute must: air conditioning! Of course you can open the windows, but the warm wind on Curacao usually does not bring cooling.
- You won’t make many miles on Curacao. Within two hours you can have driven around the whole island, and the daily drives to beaches and restaurants are often no more than a 15-minute drive, too.
- A navigation system like a TomTom (in Curacao they have the WaraWara) is actually not necessary. Anyway, you will soon know your way around, and there are good offline navigation apps for on your smartphone (e.g. MapFactor Navigator for Android, or the offline version of Google Maps). So this is where you can save money. Just be aware that you need to download a relatively large amount of data beforehand, please do so via wifi.
- Driving on Curacao is fairly relaxed. There are a few traffic (behavior) rules that are slightly different from what you are used to in the Netherlands, but you will quickly adapt. Go with the (easy) flow! Read more about driving on Curacao here.
- In Curacao, you will rarely see a car with a manual transmission. Almost all cars have an automatic transmission. If you still really want a rental car with a manual transmission, there are of course options for that.
- Gasoline is cheap and-as already reported-you probably won’t drive very many miles. So for the cost of the rental car, fuel efficiency is not a factor to consider very much.
6 reasons to rent a car on Curacao
If you have booked a vacation, it is always a question that comes to your mind sooner or later: “Should we rent a car?” => YES! is then our advice. If you really want to fully enjoy Curacao, you can’t do without a rental car.
- To begin with, Curacao’s elongated coastal strip: most of the tourist addresses (beach, restaurants, accommodations) are scattered along the coast of Willemstad. From east to west, that’s easily 20 minutes to half an hour by car (if traffic is cooperative), so that’s not something you just walk in Caribbean temperatures.
- At an average of 86 degrees, you don’t want to walk more than necessary.
- Even though you are in the middle of a tourist area (e.g. Jan Thiel or Punda/Pietermaai), you only have a limited supply of beach bars, restaurants and outdoor cafes within walking distance. If you don’t want to be in the same place every time, then you have to go farther away.
- If you want to go to tourist highlights outside Willemstad (e.g., the bays, Christoffelberg, Shete Boka, eating at Jaanchies, etc.) you can only get there by car.
- Public transportation (large and small vans) are very unreliable in terms of route and driving times. Taxis are very pricey.
- Unfortunately, it can also happen on Curacao that tourists are mugged on the street when they accidentally walk into the wrong neighborhood at night after dark. Then you better be safe in your rental car.
