Pros:
NothingCons:
Being more understanding with personal issues and offer solutions, I’ve never use the car because my flight was changed and I wanted modified the pick up date and was not possible so I pay without using the service.7.2 Good

Pros:
Nothing. There is no one thing which I likes.Cons:
They ripped me off. Overcharged. Used our poor language, threatened us, made us sign paper without explanation under pressure. They said ALL THIS HAS TO BE ON CONTRACT. BY later in their email they said it wasn't necessary. We pay over $600 more. The Allianz insurance wasn't legit for their policy.2.0 Mediocre

Sixt tricked US info buying effectively mandatory insurance, which totalled 3x the original price. 400$ instead od 120$. Super-bad, would never recommend or use again.Alamo

Jun 2017
Cons:
My flight was delayed. Alamo was aware of my flight number because it was notified by reservation and they are at the airport. Alamo closed and I left without transportation at the airport. I will never book again. I had a bad time and I was distressed to stay without transportation in a country that did not know anyone. I had to settle with another company.4.0 Okay
Jun 2017
Pros:
Decent carCons:
Got completely ripped off. Alamo did not honor the price I signed up for and forced me to to pay over $400 when I signed up for a car that was supposed to cost $1372.0 Mediocre
May 2017
Cons:
I did not rent the car because when we got there and we showed the rate we had the guy keep saying that is impossible you have no insurance he wanted to charge us insurance for 3 days $175.00 and the car rate $43 for the 3 das we thought it was outrages and decided to take a cab to the resort which was only $35.0010.0 Excellent

Feb 2017
Pros:
NothingCons:
My rate for a rental in DR was surprisingly affordable when I booked online. I went ahead and purchased the insurance made available during booking. When I arrived at the rental counter, additional insurance was required with the rental, regardless of the policy I'd purchased (mistakenly believing it was part of Alamo's a la carte options). So I had a useless insurance policy and the required Alamo insurance more than doubled the online quote. Bastards.5.2 Okay

Pros:

Get ready for a surprise when you arrive at the checkout counter to discover mandatory insurance, $1000 credit card holds, and lots of other fees in excess of what Kayak quoted you.2.0 Mediocre
Mar 2018
Pros:
Got to budget, and no 7 seaters available. Budget guy walked me over to National, where I was forced to pay double the reservation price to get the same vehicle I reserved.Cons:
Got ripped off. Won't use this again.8.8 Excellent
Feb 2018
Pros:
Was cheapest deal at the airport rentals. Would rent again hereCons:
The car battery died if you turned the lights on without the engine running, for 5 minutes. Literally 5 minutes to a dead battery. Had to have it jump-started twice and wish we would have been warned about that.9.2 Excellent
Apr 2017
Pros:
The car was clean, new, and in good working order.Cons:
The cost of the insurance was twice the cost of the rental charge2.0 Mediocre
Apr 2017
Cons:
The car was not ready when we got there and we had to be shuttled to another location to pick it up. I had purchased additional insurance on Expedia that I was then told when I arrived at Budget that that insurance was not valid for Budget nor in the Dominican Republic at all, so then I had to purchase another whole insurance. The person assisting me was rude and argumentative. He had me signing papers without even telling me what I was signing for nor what the price was going to be that I was committing/signing to. When I asked him the price he pitched a big fight and acted very immature and like I was an inconvenience. The car I got had tons and tons of dents all over it so I then had to make sure that they saw every single one so that I did not get scammed even more.Europcar

Oct 2018
Pros:
We had a Ford Explorer SUV that was able to fit our big group and was clean, drove perfectly, it would have been a 5 star review had there not been poor service with Europcar and the insurance scam they pulled on usCons:
I rented a SUV from Europcar through carrentals.com I purchased the insurance package through car rentals and when I go to Punta Cana they told me that for the SUV I cannot have the insurance I bought, I must purchase Europcar's insurance package. They also said that they DID NOT have it in writing as to where that actual company policy exists. They also did not have any paperwork that showed the different insurance packages. It seemed very sketchy and when I asked if there was a supervisor to speak to the guy said he was the supervisor. My rental went from being $375 to almost $700 with the little insurance scam. I emailed Europcar's customer service the day it happened, after my 7 day trip I still had not heard anything and still two weeks later have not heard from them.2.0 Mediocre

Pros:
Like how easy it was to dropped off.Cons:
I was given one price online and at the counter I had additional charges that no one could assist me with. I had to paid an additional $60 for dropping it off at the same location I had reserved it for but was told that it was not included in the price of reservation, I was force to use their insurance for an additional $20 otherwise they would not release the car even though I had my own insurance.2.0 Mediocre

Cons:
The quotation was way to different from what the company charged me, plus I bought the Insurance previous to the rental and the staff at Firefly said it was not valid for the Dominican Republic. Any way I can get my money back ?6.0 Good

Pros:

Jan 2017
Pros:
Absolutely nothing.Cons:
The fact that when we arrived they had no vehicles. Literally none and did not even try to help us find one. And we arrived ahead of our scheduled pick-up time to be safe. Horrible customer service and horrible company. Not what one wants to deal with when they arrive to a foreign country. Unacceptable.2.0 Mediocre
Jan 2017
Pros:
I would be capable to disband Kayak from the Internet.Cons:
They promised us to bring the car in Bavaro although, in the very first day they invited us in Punta Cana Aiport. After we made more than 5 phone calls, on European roaming, calls consisting of: wait a second, wait a second, and we were discussing with many, many operators, calling us on Terminal A, afterwards on Terminal B, and again on A and B, we found out that they didn't even have the car we ordered. We had to pay 70 USD taxi, round trip and also 282 USD insurance for no car. It was a disaster that destroyed our holiday. It's a huge mistake to have them as your franchisors. They don't speak English, it's a huge waiting time, no car, and the services are a disaster!5.2 Okay
Nov 2016
Pros:
NothingCons:
Bait and switch on prices. My rental before arrival was around 270 dollars and at the airport it turned into 597 dollars. Apperantly they do not accept the rental insurance I have bought thru Kayak (which Kayak recommended) so I was forced to buy their insurance which turned out to be more than the rental itself. Horrible rental company and I am not happy with Kayak that offered me insurance. So pretty much I got screwed. Never again am I booking rentals thru a website.2.0 Mediocre

The staff at the Punta Cana airport were horrible. They didn’t wanted to give me a car just because I didn’t paid much for my reservation online they only had cars if I was willing to pay more than 250$ US. With my reservation they said they don’t have a car and I have been charged on my credit card2.0 Mediocre
Jan 2019
Pros:
NothingCons:
It is a total rip off. Our confirmation stated that we would not have to pay anything else. They added over $250 to the agreed total. We spoke to their customer service desk and got no where. The first day they gave us an economy car when we prepaid for a mid suv. NO credit there. Car was filthy.2.0 Mediocre
Aug 2018
Cons:
It's hard to explain, because I didn't really understand it myself. But I'll try: I book a car that was $101 for five days. When I got there the total price ended up being over $550.00. Apparently theres an insurance and other fees that are not mentioned when booking that is required to rent a car. They photo copy your ID, passport, and credit Card too. After it was all said and done. I choose not to rent the car and was charged a $50 no show fee.2.0 Mediocre

Pros:
I didn't like that it was a very misleading experience. I booked through Kayak.com at a price and when I got to Hertz they said that they couldn't give me the value I was offered on the website and charged me double of what I expecting to pay.3.6 Mediocre
Jan 2020
Pros:
Convenience, dropped it off at a different locationCons:
The insurance we reserved was a joke. It was 10 dollars a day on the Kayak site only to find out when we got to the Hertz facility they wanted to charge more for insurance than the entire car rental price. We had 2 dents on the car that I told the hertz guy about. He saw them and agreed, but didn't add them to the damage sheet! So, at the other end, they are trying to charge us for dents that I have pictures of on my phone! The language barrier was a joke. If I have to pay for damage that was already on the car, I'll be coming back to Hertz for this.4.0 Okay
Jul 2019
Pros:
Honesty upon returnCons:
Was quoted a price and when I picked up the car I was downgraded to an suv that was not close to a “Tahoe or similar vehicle”. I was forced to sign into multiple types of coverages that according to the rep were mandatory. Price more than doubled from quite. Rep on return advised none were mandatory2.0 Mediocre

Feb 2017
Pros:
The car was large enough to fit 3 people and all the luggage comfortably.Cons:
I was given a price of $202 when I rented the car.I spoke to a Hertz Club Gold booking agent and they confirmed the price. Once I arrived at the Punta Cana airport: 1.) We waited over 45 minutes for someone to help us. There was nobody at the counter for 30 minutes. Then someone was who was helping another customer walked up, completely ignoring us. She was extremely slow and looked very inexperienced. Another Hertz representative showed up about 15-20 minutes later. 2.) The representative that helped us said that the price we received from the Hertz Club Gold member was just to reserve the car and the price of the car is actually more. I showed him my email receipt and he still said that's not what it shows on his screen. After that, he started adding all of these additional charges including insurance, gas option and a 28% tax. I told him I wanted to decline the insurance and gas options and he said that I could not an that I had to because it's a law in the Dominican Republic.I told him that none of this was ever communicated to me and I would have changed my travel plans to not use a rental car if I knew this was the case. I was stuck at this point and needed to pay for the car which now has cost me around $300 additional to the $202 I originally reserved. 3.) The car I was given was in terrible shape. Not only were there dents on the exterior but the inside was dirty and there were stains all over the seats. The driver side floor mat was not meant for the car. It partially covered the gas pedal and made it dangerous to drive. on top of all of this, the tires were bald and the car slide many times when I was braking. I have pictures of the dents in the exterior, floor mat and tires as proof. Additionally, I was only given the key to the car and not given the keyless entry module. This was absolutely the worst experience I've ever had renting a car and I was expecting much better service and vehicle since I was renting through Hertz. Also, the website and Hertz Club Gold representative should have explained the insurance and tax scams before renting the car. I will not be using Hertz in the future due to this experience.Thrifty

Pros:
Reservation made sept 2016 for the ONLY vacation I get all year at Christmas. Confirmed six times - even before leaving LAX! Arrived and was told "sorry lady we have no cars". Without all the horrible details here's a f ew: - 3.5 hours begging/crying at counter they did not care although my reservation was acknowledged. - Christmas day, traveling solo and disabled, they did not care. - Supervisor got on phone, he did not care. - I had nowhere to go and NO transportation. - 3.5 hours later "we found a car it will be $800" THIEVES AND LIARS. I witnessed FIVE other renters on either side of the Thrifty rental counter told the same thing.Cons:
Learned from MANY locals, "they do it all the time". - my reservation was for 16 days $300. I would NEVER give that country one dime out of my own pocket although the USA has given them HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of dollars to rebuild. Their culture is deplorable. They need to be delivered from the rampant "deception with a smile."2.0 Mediocre

I have rented cars for a little over 10 years now and this was the worst car experience.

Not even that, before I left for my trip I confirmed it and they told me my car was available. Don't know how that works?? And to end the story short they triple the price?

Cons:
They overbook and dies not have a car for me , the supervisor said that my reservation was "expired" becaude i arrive 2 hours late. They try to look for an indepent car rental that charge me 700 usd, when i book for 250 usd. Horrible experience5.2 Okay
Dec 2016
Pros:
The car drove nice, but was a stiff ride in the back seat for two adults. We were able to get four adult and 6+ bags. The air conditioning worked well. It had enough power to manuver when needed.Cons:
The Hyundai Accent is a small "Full size" car. Very short leg space in the back seat. The outside of the car was clean enough, but the inside of the windshield was very bad. Refracted the sunlight to the point we had to stop and find water and towels to scrub the inside clean. I expected the required liablity insurance to be extra, but the required ups and extras almost doubled the original quoted cost. I was very nervious driving, fearing someone might hit me and we were warned of the consequences.4.4 Okay
Oct 2016
Pros:
Car was fairly new and clean. Upon return rep drove us to our terminal in the car and helped us manage our luggage.Cons:
There were surprise extra charges and they insisted on putting a $1500 hold on my credit card because I declined their insurance. The car was smaller than what I reserved and there were no other options so we squeezed in and didn't have a very safe situation. There were several stickers partially removed from the windshield that obstructed the view.2.0 Mediocre

Top tips for hiring a car in Punta Cana
- Explore the very eastern tip of the Dominican Republic on your own four wheels and rent a car for your time in Punta Cana. With beautiful beaches and the inland stretching out seemingly infinitely, a car is definitely a must to get from A to B in this region. Make the most of your holiday and reach any beach with its wonderfully clear blue water or a stunning golf course conveniently and in comfort.
- Punta Cana International Airport is plopped amidst the region’s heart and is only a few minutes from many popular destinations. Various car hire agencies are situated at the airport, including companies like Thrifty, Avis, and Hertz. This remote corner of the world will most likely require visitors to have their own wheels if they do not want to be dependent on taxis. By car, it will take a maximum of half an hour to get to the northern side of the region, where most hotels are located.
- Driving in Punta Cana can be a bit of a challenge for first-time visitors, as many street regulations appear to be considered suggestions rather than rules. Motorcycles are also a common sight and they can whizz around a corner and be difficult to see coming. Driving defensively is the number one rule when coming to Punta Cana, but when doing so, there is nothing that can stop you from exploring all the beauty this region has to offer.
- Compared to major cities, rush hour in Punta Cana is comparably tame, but from 8 to 10 am and 6 to 9 pm, roads can face increased traffic as well. During the summer, traffic also increases as tourists flock into the region to enjoy the sun, white beaches, and crystal clear water. Especially around the coastline, traffic jams can occur in the peak season.
- Book your rental car in Punta Cana at least 7 weeks before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Intermediate rental cars in Punta Cana are around 37% cheaper than other car types, on average
