WHERE TO PICK UP THE CAR WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE ...THE CARS WERE CRAPPY HAH TO GET ANOTHER ONE THAT WASNT FALLING APART ALSOAND MORE EXPENSIVE THAN CURACAO THAT HAD BETTER CARS4.8 Okay
Nov 2019
Pros:
Staff was ultimately accommodating, but not quick to assist.Cons:
Firstly, the car was a 2016 and a piece of garbage. The door lock only opened the driver door, rather than all of the doors as it should have. Our car died on the island. We called the service number and they told us 20-30 minutes. An hour later they came, tried a jump start and battery, but to no avail. They said the car needed to be towed, and after a phone call, said they were to take me to the airport to get a replacement. I questioned the drop off point since Payless is offsite. Of course, when they dropped me at the airport, there was no one there. I imposed on the Avis attendant (Avis owns/partners with Payless) to get me a ride to Payless. There they gave me a replacement vehicle. But no one from Payless knew of any of my previous conversations with them during this ordeal. To their credit, they provided me with a courtesy discount for my troubles when I settled my account.... but only after I asked.10.0 Excellent

No car was available. I paid for a taxi to and from and had no car. Very disappointing experience. Will not use Kayak next time.8.8 Excellent
Mar 2018
Pros:
Newer car, everything worked as expectedCons:
Long wait to check out, one clerk handling customer other clerk doing busy work. Waited 20 minutes, I was second customer in line. $1000 hold on credit card, not a problem but could be for some renters6.0 Good
Dec 2017
Pros:
Convenience of pick up and drop off.Cons:
Avis required a $1000 hold on a credit card at time of rental if their insurance is not accepted (& paid for...in which case it would have been a $500 hold).5.6 Okay

Cons:
Vehicle had 63K+ miles and was well used.4.0 Okay
May 2017
Pros:
Poor service. May 1st is labor day on the island. None bothered to inform customers that all gas stations would be closed. Every single customer complained about their lack of anticipation and it did not bother them to charge premium for gas not being full.4.0 Okay
Apr 2017
Pros:
It was not expensive, even with the extra insurance.Cons:
Atrociously long wait at the airport rental counter. It took us 30 minutes to fly from Curaçao to Aruba, and one hour to rent! There were four people working at the counter, with one working and three looking and a huge line of customers. The car itself was rundown, big mileage (35,000km) and very basic. I understand it was an economy rental, but I expected more from Avis.Economy Rent a Car

Too many extraneous charges and deposits up front that we didn't know about. They were waived upon return of the car, but a $361+ rental agreement came with deposits totaling $942+. That's one way to give a senior citizen heart failure.2.0 Mediocre

Oct 2019
Cons:
The total charge quoted to me was $221.02 for a 9-day rental. I had phoned Thrifty when I had made the reservation to inquire where the car pickup location is, and the representative stated that he believed it was the kiosk at the airport. Even the copy of the reservation stated "Free Shuttle To Car". However, when I checked in at the airport kiosk, they stated that the pickup for the vehicle was offsite from the airport, that they did not provide a shuttle to the offsite location, and that I would have to take a taxi to the pickup point. They claimed that the statement in the reservation copy that I produced at check-in was no longer in effect and that it was shown there in error. Instead, the offered to have me pick up a vehicle at the airport, but that I would have to pay an additional $24.91 USD + tax for "Airport Fee", which raised my total rental fee to $246.40 USD, an increase of $25.38 USD. I was not in a position to seek a taxi at that time, so I reluctantly agreed to accept the additional airport charge. Other competitive car rental firms that I've used for many prior years all offer free airport shuttle to offsite pickup and drop-off locations. If I had known this beforehand, I would likely have rented elsewhere who also quoted me competitive rates. Although I have rented from Thrifty a few times in the past without issues and was satisfied with their rentals, this time I feel I was a victim of erroneous advertising and a misleading claim of a bargain rate.5.6 Okay

Cons:
Explicitly asked the people at the counter and customer service on the phone if my girlfriend can return the car since she was listed as a driver. I checked with them 3 times and each time they said it would not be an issue as long as she was a driver. When she went to return the car they gave her a very hard time about it stating that I would need to be there since it was under my name. I wouldn't mind being there to return the car, but I had to work and we were told she could do it. I really don't like being lied to.8.4 Excellent

When to book a rental car in Oranjestad
Top tips for renting a car in Oranjestad
- Oranjestad is nothing short of picturesque, and for you to have the flexibility to make stops and soak in the beauty of the island, you would need to have a vehicle. Car rentals in Oranjestad offer you the convenience and ability to explore the island at your leisure without schedule rushes or worrying about missing buses. Once you get your car of choice from Oranjestad car rentals, hit the freeway and visit places like the California Lighthouse about 9 miles away or the Butterfly Farm about 7 miles away.
- When you land at the Aruba Queen Beatrix International Airport (AUA), you’ll find the rental car facility inside the airport. Once you exit customs, walk straight ahead about 60 feet, where you’ll find the rental car counter. You have the option to book your car through KAYAK, after which you’ll find it waiting for you at the airport. There are various car rentals in Oranjestad, including Alamo, Budget, Avis, Payless, Thrifty, and Hertz.
- The city of Oranjestad is conveniently located in the middle of Aruba, which means that nearly everything interesting is close and within driving distance. Driving is on the right side of the road, and when you turn left, the oncoming traffic will have the right of way. There are many traffic circles in Aruba and approaching traffic must yield to traffic already on the traffic circle. Watch out for goats and iguanas on the road, as they cause traffic in some areas. Also, look out for pedestrians during carnivals and events. The signage is not very visible, so having a car with navigation capabilities will go a long way.
- Oranjestad is the capital of Aruba, and you can expect heavy traffic, especially during rush hour, which spans from 6am to 9am, then 5pm to 7pm. The LG Smith Boulevard, better known as Sasakiweg, north of Oranjestad, is one of the busiest roads. It’s a four-lane highway, and it could be congested anytime depending on the number of tourists and locals commuting to different areas of the island.
- 25% of our users found rental cars in Oranjestad for ₪139 or less
- Book your rental car in Oranjestad at least 6 weeks before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Mini rental cars in Oranjestad are around 29% cheaper than other car types, on average
