Jul 2018

KAYAK

Pros:

They had the exact car we reserved.

Cons:

We paid at the counter and all prices were quoted in US dollars. When returning the car, they showed me a bill that displayed a charge of $425 in US dollars. It also showed the price in Mexican Pesos and what looked like a favorable conversion rate. When I got home and checked my credit card bill I had actually been charged $485. Very tricky practice.

Pros:

We showed up in Loreto only to find out that there was not a car for us even though we had a reservation. We were one of 10 other travelers stuck in the same situation. FYI Ace, Fox and Mexcar are all the same company. Do not rent from any of them!!

Cons:

Liked getting a relatively new car. Had to wait VERY long time in line at pickup. Only one agent, and a very slow process for completing the paperwork. Also there was no staff at the airport until about 45 minutes before my flight boarded. Need to have staff there a couple hours before departure. And PLEASE do something to bring the insurance cost down! If insurance stays this high, we will take taxis instead of renting b

Car had plenty of trunk space but car itself was smaller than expected, tiny wheels which was a challenge with speed bumps in the area. Paid more than quoted due to conversion from MXD to USD. Almost wish quote was in MXD. Time at the counter to complete rental was longer than most places.

I liked that it would only have cost us $13 per day to rent a car in Mexico. But that turned out not to be the truth

Pros:

New VW Jetta was comfortable and clean

Cons:

I had been quoted online $55.00 for 6 days. But at the rental I was told I had to take mandatory insurance that brought the charge to $285.00! I felt that was a ripoff but they would not let me have the car unless I agreed. I had no choice. If in fact this kind of insurance cost is required in Mexico, it should at least be disclosed on the website. I have a suspicion though it should not have been that expensive and I got ripped off.

Easy process, good car. 2 items - there was some upfront expenses (deposit) that was not clearly covered in the websight when I booked. The second issue was the car was in need of oil service and had warning lights on when I picked it up. This was not big deal, I checked oil level and the car was actually fine.

Insurance costs should be presented honestly, up-front at time of on-line rental booking. Kayak confirmed price of $10/day for the rental car and mentioned no additional fees for taxes or insurance. Once we arrived to the rental car counter we were told the insurance costs were an added $50/day (Five times the cost of the rental agreement price). Bait and switch! Kayak must do their homework on this false advertising.

Cons:

We arrived at the airport in Loreto Mexico. The rate was to be $4 per day. OK I know that we should have some insurance - but in reality we have a great deal our own insurance. But I plan to add some insurance when we get there. Insurance is not 10 or 20 dollars a day, no it is $50 per day. Not only that - but you MUST buy their insurance. Anyway we decided against, just as well the city is tiny, tiny and we walked most everywere and hired a driver for out of area trip, rented a car for 1 day to look around the different beaches. So I guess the high prices forced us to see things from a different perspective.

Apr 2017

KAYAK

Pros:

Convenient, right outside the arrival door at the airport. This was the first time renting and we did it because it was cheaper than the cost of the shuttle to Villa del Palmar at the Islands, where our timeshare is. The car fit the 5 of us and the luggage. Return was easy even though no one was there for the turn in....

Cons:

No one there to turn the car in when we left, just placed the keys in the box. I had to contact ALAMO customer service after i got back home to try to get a receipt from them for the final bill, which ended up being $30 more than expected, even with the mandatory third party liability. ALAMO customer service really helped and that was appreciated.

Great service from Alamo, Mexico in both Loreto collecting car and La Paz where I returned it. Rental was a large SUV (VW Touran) in good condition and comfortable for 4 adults and luggage. English speaking representatives. Very polite and helpful. Explained everything about the rental including insurance and charges fully. My only suggestion for improvement would be to do "Full to Full" on fuel rather than picking it up with 3/4 of a tank and trying to return with same. But that aside, I'd recommend and use them again.

A cost of $350 turned in to over $1000 with all the fees and insurance added. The cost on Kayak is not representative at all of what you will pay. And all these charges hit you when you go to get your car, so you have no option but to pay the fees if you need a car
