Buyer Beware - Read the insurance information to avoid a nasty surprise at the counter. My main complaint was that this provider should CLEARLY up front make buyer aware there will be another $USD1300 insurance coverage charge to rent in Costa Rica. I watched three other parties react in shock when informed of this charge over and above the booking rental price. Here is the no so clear policy buried in their on-line disclosures; Insurance information Renter is responsible for damage to the rental vehicle. We offer CDW - Collision Damage Waiver with a deductible of 900.00 - 5000.00USD, see detail below. The Renter may decline CDW and use credit card or insurance policy by presenting written proof of coverage with type of vehicle covered-amt of coverage valid during dates of rental and 3000USD deposit. 5000USD deposit for theft any car. If CDW is declined purchase of SLI-Z, 100 percent liability coverage, is required. Renter pays all rental vehicle damage. 3rd Party Ins and credit card coverage REIMBURSE you for damages to our vehicle. All damages must be paid by the renter in full prior to leaving Costa Rica.

Third Party Liability- SLI is mandatory in case of an accident with a third party. The renter is responsible for 20 percent of the total damage and the company pays 80 percent. If the renter declines CDW then SLI-Z will be mandatory and the Company pays 100 percent of the liability damages. The security deposit will be 900-1600USD depending on rented vehicle. SLI plus SLIZ ranges from 28 to 50USD per day depending on vehicle rented.
