|Jul 2023The gentleman checking me in was awesome! He helped me tremendously to finish up the process of renting our car. He turned what could have been a mishap on my part into a great experience renting a car. I would return.

|Jul 2023Awful experience! Avis Cabo San Lucas required that you purchase their insurance at $85 per day. Additionally they require a hold of $3,200 on the classification of vehicle which was a small SUV. They also double charged me for the hold so I had $6,400+ USD held on my car. Stay away!
8.0
|Jul 2023Overall, a good experience. It would have been excellent if Avis had not wanted to not honor the reservation price. Avis did eventually honor the reservation price, but here was no need to go through a period of thinking that I was going to pay about twice as much as the reservation price. The reservation price was excellent.

|Jul 2023Rented a minivan, they didn’t have one available and wanted to offer a smaller car. I got a large SUV, which was not enough space - we made it work. You have to go through 3 counters to provide documents, excessive.

|Jul 2023This was Avis at puerto Vallarta airport. Regular size car. The line was extremely slow and staff moved very slowly. Took an hour to get the car with only 1 person ahead of me. Price was ok but I declined insurance since my credit card and auto insurance policy cover the car. They insisted on putting a $4200 hold on my credit card in case there was any damage- even a scratch. Crazy. Won’t rent there again.

|Aug 2023I couldn't have a vehicle, your booking was not taking by Budget ... I arrive by Budget and They tell me that there was no vehicle for me. I showed the confirmation mail, but they tell me that there was no vehicle for me ... I lost a lot of time to find a new vehicle in another rent-a-car

|Jul 2023Car was very very dirty. Car seat we had for my child was caked in feces and smelled of urine as well. Lastly, someone who worked there also tipped off my entire family to corrupt cops who pulled us over (we had two cars, how would they know we were together unless being tipped off) who coerced us to pay them $500 or else go to jail. We had 5 children and my elderly parents with us. Terrifying experience.

|Jan 2026WORST EXPERIENCE EVER. THEY ARE A COMPLETE SCAM. PLEASE DO NOT USE THEM. They extorted nearly $1000 from us for returning the car a few hours late. For context, that is more than we paid for the entire 2 weeks of the rental. They also did not give us the car that we ordered. We ordered a 14 passenger van and they gave us an 11 passenger one. KAYAK should remove them from their site.

|Dec 2025I was pretty sure that I selected a vehicle that was supposed to be picked up at the terminal and instead they had an employee at the terminal and a shuttle outside of the terminal so there was an inconvenience for us on our trip.

|Nov 2025A terrible experience. First, they asked me to sign without checking the car. They had one of the doors that didn’t close and we had kids with us. The car was dirty and smelled, I had to put gas a soon as I got the car because it didn’t have any. The service was horrible. They tried to charge me for an extra insurance policy for $500. When I went to return the car they “found some damage” that was on the video and pictures we took when we got the car. They didn’t want us to show all the pictures they had in the file. They went ahead and charged $800 more to my credit card. I’ve brought the issue to my bank because this is fraud!

|Aug 2024I had reserved a truck, however when I arrived, they said it was unavailable because it was broken. I was going to a remote destination and needed a vehicle that would safely navigate the terrain. They gave me a front wheel drive small SUV and they said it would be fine. During my journey to my destination, there were half a dozen situations where they were completely wrong. Fortunately, I have experience navigating difficult terrain. And with several attempts managed to get to my destination and return. Both were equally stressful. Unfortunately, this will be my last rental through this company. The people were nice. The car was clean but but not what I needed or asked for...

|Jan 2023The staff were friendly and the vehicle was ok- vehicle lacked power. Overcharging for insurance was equal to 40% of the total charges. This creates caution for me when renting with kayak.

|Jan 2022Convenient and decent price (though not cheap) from a reputable brand. People at site are helpful. Oscar was good. Word of caution: check your vehicle VERY carefully for damage before accepting the car and take pictures. They may claim you damaged the car and try to withhold your deposit if they think you damaged the car.

|Jan 2022Great service and we got a brand new car!
