Cons:

Insurance is a scam. I have coverage through my credit card however they claimed I needed to present WRITTEN evidence of coverage in Mexico or would have to pay for their insurance. This was never disclosed in advance via reservation or when I called Budget to confirm reservation and any special insurance requirements.

Cons:

Having the vehicle I reserved. I reserved a SUV and when I arrived at 3:30 they only had 2 vehicles available (compacts) , I refused to accept either one and had to wait and hour for the next suitable vehicle a full size sedan to be returned, fueled and cleaned. Budget and I was lucky that I didn’t slice open the oil pan or dropped the transmission on the rutted and rocky dirt roads to my destination of Cerritos Beach north of Cabo. That office needs more inventory of vehicles with basic safety features like back up camera, blind spot warning or any sensors period not available on even their premium vehicles. Then replace some of the indifferent and drag-*ss employees who contributed to the hour long wait!

Renting a car in Mexico is a rip off. Once you think you have secured a rental fee you get hit with not only one type of insurance coverage BUT 3. So your rental ends up being very expensive. If you have a credit card that can cover your basic needs, IT IS NOT ENOUGH to satisfy the do call coverage. In addition, they send you a letter telling you that because of high demand your vehicle is not available, BUT they a wonderful upgrade for 3 or 4 times as expensive. We ended up renting from a different vendor, and ended up being less expensive and my credit card satisfied the basic coverage. However, we had to sign o declination on all other additional BS.

3.6 Poor

Jan 2020

KAYAK

Pros:

drop off was easy and when shuttle was going late, the guy offered to drive me to terminal, but then the shuttle showed up.

Cons:

1. They forced me to buy the more expensive insurance. They wouldn't rent the car unless I did. Another lady refused and they let her go, so my rental ended up costing 3x. 2. It took forever to get the car because they kept forcing the up-sell, while the family was waiting. It felt like a mafia run rental agency. 3. The car didn't have a front license plate and instead had this big piece of paper pasted to front windshield that obstructed passenger view.

Terrible service! They said it was mandatory to buy their insurance and that my card wasn’t enough. I asked Juan (supervisor) to show me where in their policy it stated this and he went to reach for it but then he said that the paperwork was moved by someone and he couldn’t show me. The folder with all their company policies was right in front of us but he refused to open it and show me. A total scam by these workers there!! I rented with Ace and they didn’t force anything on me 3 days before. Terrible customer service! Never rent here again!

2.0 Poor

Oct 2019

KAYAK

Cons:

I never got the car, they tried to get me for more money when I arrived. I have rented several times and used third party insurance to cover the car. They insisted that the purchased insurance would not cover anything, they really tried to scam me. They started quoting insurance in the excess of $1300 until I was fed up with their approach and they tried to offer me coverage for$100 walking out the door. Internationally I will rent from My resorts from this point forward!!!! Word to the wise! Had I not rented before I probably would have believed them like I seen many others do!

6.8 Okay

Jun 2019

KAYAK

Pros:

They didn't communicate price very well. We were originally told $25-30 per day when we called them. When we got there it was almost twice that, plus they wanted a $500 deposit they didn't tell us about. They ended up giving us the car for close to what they originally said plus a $300 deposit

Cons:

Communicate pricing more clearly from the start next time and mention the deposit. I also blame kayak for not posting pricing through the app. It originally said our trip would cost $4, which obviously isn't accurate. Have baseline pricing quoted at the very least including insurance.

Pros:

The car was OK, had to jump it once because it couldn't stand the radio on and the car was very weak and sounded like it had some transmission problems. But it did it's job, can't expect much from a Renault

Cons:

I made the reservation for $70 for all 5 days, thought it was a great rate. When we got there they said there was a mandatory insurance that jumped the price to OVER $250 for 5 days. Why are we booking at such a low rate and believe that is the TOTAL price as the website says then figure out we need to pay 4x the price at the spot. Then I extended for another 2 days and it was over $120 for the 2 days. Super misleading and that is definitely Kayak's fault for quoting such low rates, I wish they would honor the rate that I was quoted before I made my way to Mexico and got ripped off because I needed a car. Literally everyone was complaining about the huge insurance rates at the store.

Pros:

They didn't push the insurance too much. The place was clean. People were very respectful and prompt.

Cons:

3.6 Poor

Nov 2018

KAYAK

Pros:

Location was near the airport.

Cons:

Car was advertised as $94 for a week. I was forced (not asked) to pay for extra "mandatory" insurance of $16/day. This increased the total to $204. I was told by the representative at National Car Rental at the Cabo San Lucas airport that I could not rent the car unless I paid the extra insurance fee and that it was Mandatory. None of that information was on the site where I made a reservation. I believe the representative gave me false information and I'm going to report it to the Washington Post travel section. I took pictures of the agreement I had to sign.

4.4 Mediocre

Apr 2017

KAYAK

Pros:

The price I saw on my online booking! $10/day for a 2016 Chevy Malibu! Returning the car was quick and easy!

Cons:

The ACTUAL price I had to pay when I arrived because Mexican law requires the purchase of some Mandatory 3rd-Party Liability insurance which added 200% to the price of my daily rental. An additional $20/day. Customers should really be informed about this in advancen, as this can easily be taken into consideration during the online booking process. Also, my Emerald Club number was not connected to my reservation and I really had to negotiate HARD with the agent to get them to add it to my account. Was there an option to do this during the reservation? I don't recall. As a frequent National/Emerald user this was disappointing. Finally, clearing Mexican customs & immigration was less hassle, paperwork and time consuming than renting a car which I would have found hilarious if it wasn't so annoying. Would give 0 stars if I could! Also, the shuttle bus from the terminal has back doors for a reason. The staff should f***ing use them instead of piling everyone in the side, then cramming the luggage in so all the passengers are stick inside. Let the people go in and out the back DUHHHH!!! Okay... rant finished, but seriously those are legitimate points!

Oct 2018

KAYAK

Pros:

The car itself was clean and functioned as expected.

Cons:

I show up to Pueblo Bonito Rose on the date I scheduled my rental pick-up (the date and location had already been pre-selected) and the hotel concierge tells me that Avis is closed on Sundays. Why did the website allow me to schedule the pickup on this date? Pueblo Bonito was nice enough to call Avis' other location nearby and I spoke with Avis on the phone, they sent a guy with my rental. He said he'd be there in 10 minutes, that was a lie, I waited at least half an hour. They provide a wifi box which is kinda neat, but the guy gave it to me without a charging cable and I wasn't able to charge it, so this was only useful on the first drive, after the first day of using it, it died and was useless. He told me upfront that there was no charging cable, so I was aware of this and said ok. When I returned the car at SJD Airport, Avis asks me where the cable is. I said you guys gave me the wifi box without one. They said that because there weren't any notations of the missing cable that they would have to charge me, at this point I was pretty upset. I'm just trying to drop of my car so we can catch our flight back home and now this nonsense. Long story short I spoke with the manager and flat out told them, "no, I'm not paying for a cable that we were never provided with which made this wifi box useful for only one trip" I didn't end up having to pay for the cable but then I got screwed on having to pay for a full tank of gas when I only used 1/4 of the tank, so I might as well have paid for the stupid cable. Avis never once told me anything about extra charges for gas, I guess this can be assumed but being that this was in Mexico and the first time I rent a car there, I didn't assume the rules were the same. I would've put a few bucks worth of gas to replenish the tank had i known I was going to have to pay the full price of a tank. Terrible experience!

Cons:

They really try hard to push you on buying the insurance. In fact, they mislead you to the point of pushing outright fabrication (lying) that you are legally obligated to purchase insurance from them (which is not true.) This caused picking up the car to take far longer than it should, as when I got the contract, they had added insurance that I had not asked for, and I had to have them correct it, and go through the whole process again.

Pros:

Cons:

I call it the Mexico Shuffle because it always seems It's a bait and switch I am now a custom too this business practice Obviously when I rented the car through kayak it was $5 per day not even a Mexico can you get a car for $5 a day I knew that they were going to sell me a damage waiver the know where on the website could I find that information I actually called the location and got the exact price per day which was $35 plus the $5 as advertised so is about $40 per day for a midsize SUV which are required for off road dirt road travel Just to be fair all the car companies seem to do that even if I tell him I did not want to damage waiver that American Express credit card covers me and my automobile insurance covers rental cars and in fact my homeowner's policy has a line item in it for Rental Car Coverage which is rather minimal but it is there

4.0 Mediocre

Aug 2017

KAYAK

Pros:

The car, while it was a new car, still was not the car that we reserved. We reserved a Nissan Maxima for 4 adults and got a KIA Sorento

Cons:

This was my first use of the Kayak site and we reserved a car for a week out of Cabo. The car was not what I ordered (a smaller KIA instead of a Nissan). The real problem was that as soon as I reserved it, I received an email from an insurance company, Allianz, that offered to sell me insurance. I purchased the insurance, but ACE rental would not recognize that insurance. I had to purchase another insurance policy through them at 3 times the price or not get the car.

2.0 Poor

Jul 2017

KAYAK

Pros:

Not much. Starting with the (initial) airport shuttle ("Ace badged"), which delivered me to a 35 minute wait, at the (wrong) office. Once we took (other) shuttle, I was offered a Kia "Forte"(instead of the VW Jetta-Full Size or "similar"). My reservation stated Then, instead of the $30.69USD, that my reservation stated, I was given a choice of $180.69USD (with a $2500.00USD "Hold", and final charge on my credit card), or $215.51USD, for an $800.00 "Hold", and final charge on my credit card.

Cons:

I did not appreciate the disorganization, the need to go to (2) different office locations, the waiting in line (at each of those offices), for a total of 50 minutes, the type of car that I was rented, (i.e.smaller than the car class that I reserved), or the ("Surprise!!!") additional charges that were somehow acceptable, and explained by, the "Terms and Conditions". While "Additional Charges may apply for required insurance, when the "required insurance" is 6 times the cost of the rental, something is wrong.

Even though I already had an 11-day reservation and insurance covered by my own personal policy, they tried forcing me to either accept a $2000 deposit taken on my card or scam me into getting their insurance which was twice the amount per day of the rental itself. Given those choices, I refused the rental altogether and made alternate arrangements.

You are forced to purchase third-party liability insurance as your credit card coverage or your regular insurance policy is not valid in Mexico. We were aware of this coming down and we were prepared to purchase the insurance. However, $500 for third-party liability for 10 days is ridiculous. The neighbour in the condo we were staying pays $300 for the whole year for his liability insurance .

They were scamming customers. They force you to purchase their insurance for $99-150. I saw them find random things wrong with multiple cars that were being returned — it was almost like they already knew where the damage was. Don’t believe the prices, just go to enterprise or some other reputable company.

The rental price is provided in USD, with an exchange rate of 20-30% higher than the official rate. That's not the main issue. But, the fact they make you pay in Mexican pesos with the conversion rate they provide. Is not possible to pay in cash (USD/MXN), nor in the currency of your credit card (USD). Thus, they overcharge you with at least 20% more than the original price announced/agreed. This is an abusive practice, and I would recommend find another place where to rent a car, as there are plenty not doing this.

Read the reviews for MexRentACar. The same thing about the pickup/dropoff reverting to noon happened to the couple in front of me. The insurance per day happened to me. they wanted $28 per day, but I told them I had called and it was $18 dollars per day. So I ended up getting $0 deductible for any damages to the vehicle. Regardless of this, I still took detailed video of all the car, specifically in areas of prior damage. Sure enough, during inspection, they found a "new" scratch. I showed them the video and that was enough to get them off my back. Would NOT recommend MexRentACar. Another this is that I did not know I had booked with Priceline, I thought Kayak was booking agency, it's not.

Price is good, that’s the trick…..!!!!! They pick you up at the airport, is actually vans from mexcar at the airport in San Jose del cabo. When I do my reservation I paid $130 for 5 days. I ended pain $400 because insurance is not included you never know what can be wrong or what’s the condition of the car so they tell you if something went wrong with the car you are responsible for paid any damages. Full caber is $2$$ on top of what you paid on the reservation. I consider they need to be more clear with the insurance policy, they won’t take your insurance at all it even if your credit card has one.

First of all - do not buy the insurance that is sold either on this platform, or any other. It simply does not work. It meant that they denied my pre-purchased insurance, and made me purchase their absurdly expensive insurance on the spot (what choice did I have!). It's a scam! Thankfully Kayak did refund me the insurance cost after the fact, which means I'd book through this service again. But buyer beware - the insurance costs triple what the actual car rental costs, so the deal is crappy when you review it all together. My supposed $300 rental turned into almost $1200 when all was said and done (not including gas of course).

We booked a car for $140 for 6 days. I checked several times to make sure the car rental was at the airport, not with a shuttle. When we arrived, and finally found an attendant for U-Save amongst the crowd when you exit SJD (Cabo) airport, he indicated we would take a shuttle to the car rental office. We still waited 5-10 minutes for the shuttle. When we finally arrived, they said there were mandatory insurance fees of nearly $60/day, which would bring my total closer to $500–that’s more than triple the price I had reserved with. That was supposed to be the total cost. After much back and forth, they said there’s nothing they could do and that this 3rd party insurance is required in Mexico. We were almost going to agree, about to start the paperwork, then they said they would have to charge $1500 as a deposit for incidentals. This was NOT a hold, this was going to be a charge that they would refund. I’ve rented cars before and I understand a deposit for incidentals. But this amount seemed outrageously high, especially in light of the forced insurance. We decided to skip the car rental altogether and just used taxis/Uber to get around. It cost us much much less, and definitely less headache. I would never ever book with U-Save ever again. And generally be wary of renting a car in Cabo for that matter, as they just try to impose additional costs and triple the anticipated cost.

Did not rent car due to they are scammers. Get you in the door then make you buy extra insurance or you do not get car. Required purchase of extra third party insurance even though the rental details said it was optional. They try to extort you as you must sign all forms saying you agree to everything so they can get away with it. Made the rental more than double what I was quoted. You guys should no longer list them as rental options. Please do something about it. Ken Burger

Pros:

Car was excellent as was service.

Cons:

I chose Payless because of price. Supposedly $175 for a weekly rental. That they agreed was the confirmed price. When I declined the insurance as I always do, since I have insurance on my credit card, I was told they would only allow this if I could produce a letter proving I had insurance from the credit card company. Or I could bring it later to one of their offices. Since I didn't have access to a printer this was not possible. Payless then charged an additional $18/day or $125 for the week for "insurance". This essentially doubled the cost. I have rented from Fiesta in downtown San Jose before at a much cheaper price. We only chose Payless since we arrived with heavy suitcases and wanted a rental car from the Los Cable airport. We won't be renting from Payless again.

I rented a Jetta for 3 usd per day, but it turned ou that third party insurance ( basic by the way) is 33 usd per day. I think this is how they get you yo rent with them and then hike up the price. Also I came with the tank half full and they were charging me 70 usd to fill it up. In MEXICO that translates to 3.5 times the cost of gas. I took it myself given the price.

We had a mechanical breakdown 70km from the rental location. Checkin was tedious with many forms and contract pages to read if one was fluent in Spanish and had an extra hour, staff was completely unhelpful and said we were “on our own” because we made a short trip on a sand road which was stated not to do, but we didn’t see this disclaimer in the contract. NO NELP AT ALL is what they told us. We managed to have a very helpful local get the car started again some problem in the system which staff of this company said was completely and totally our problem to fix. We did with the local and got back to Cabo after being stranded for 5 hours. Car did not start again and we contacted the agency who again said it was our fault and responsibility. Had another mechanic come to the hotel in the morning and managed to get it started (no promise if it would start again) and drove to airport, leaving car running while filling up the gas, and returned it. Agency stated we would be billed for this repair. Cheap agency that overcharged for insurance, had a car with 64000km, bald tires, damaged interior a/c controls and management with attitude! Strongly suggest NOT USING THIS AGENCY Routes or sister company. We won’t use this again! Very displeased to say the least!!!

They forced me to buy regular Liability Insurance (not SLI) for 20 dollars per day. This is supposed to be included in the car rental price as per car rental regulations in Mexico.You can add SLI if you want more coverage. I initially refused to pay so they would not rent me the car. I went to Budget car rental down the street and they verified the car rental fee includes the basic Liability Insurance as required by law. Of course Budget would rent me a car but at “walk-in” prices which was substantially more than the on-line deal I was supposed to get at Routes. So, I returned to Routes, told them what Budget said and they said I still had to buy Liability Insurance which I had to do. My opinion is Routes is a sham company in business to extort travelers illegally and should be shut down. I will be challenging the MasterCard charge for the car rental. Ken Burger

The price quoted is very cheap and states "total cost". However, when you pick up the car you are required to pay over $200 for insurance. The "total cost" should include insurance!

Never rent from Firefly (aka Hurtz). Our total on pick up was TWICE as much as the price quoted with our reservation, and they call a Nissan Kicks (small cross over model) a full size SUV - barely fit 3 people comfortably. Two thumbs down, don’t be a sucker and rent from Firefly.

Pros:

The staff was friendly and drop off was quick and easy.

Cons:

There needs to be more information for future customers on additional fees NOT mentioned in the advertising when booking a rental car in Mexico. Although my credit card covers collision, it did not cover liability in Mexico. It was not known to me and to other customers to my left and my right at the counter, while I was working on getting the contract worked out. The daily advertised prices are steep and will cut into peoples budget. I understand that I have to play the game, but it is very disappointing that I find this out at the counter and not before.

Pros:

The staff was super awesome and friendly, wait time was insanely ridiculous- we waited over three hours from the time we got dropped off by the shuttle until we we drove out. I’ve rented cars in other countries and this one by far one of the slowest processes ever. And remember the price kayak quotes is just for the car-not for everything else they throw in at the counter. My price on kayak was $188 and I ended up paying $572 all said and done. In the end it was kinda worth it all.

They forced us to pay for their ridiculously expensive insurance when we arrived. The van they rented us barely even ran. Every check engine light was on. It was missing knobs and levers inside. Then they tried to tell us it was worth $20,000 and we would be on the hook for that amount if something happened to it and it was "our fault". We all know what that means in Mexico. Stay clear of these guys.
