Santo Domingo car rental experiences: the best tips from KAYAK users

Insights shared by verified travelers who rented a car in Santo Domingo 
maximeJan 2024
Driving in Dominican Republic is not as dangerous as you may read online. Just adapt your driving to the local rules, or absence of rules. It may seem chaotic, but there’s much consideration from all users.
Verified travelerSept 2023
Be careful driving in Dominican Republic. Also be careful with traffic police officers on the road. When you rent a car, they seem to stop you more than they would stop tourists even when driving under speed limit. Be mindful of speed limits.
JoseOct 2023
Not to rent at Alamo and go to another car rental. Always double check the car before leaving the airport and don’t ever stay quiet.
Verified travelerAug 2023
Buy the insurance as soon as you secure the car reservation.

KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Santo Domingo

  • Renting a car for your time in Santo Domingo is definitely a good choice, as public transport is unreliable and often takes twice as long as going by car. Taxis can be very expensive and, unless you want to employ one of the carros pùblicos, which are taxis where various people are crammed in and dropped off one by one at their destination, a car is your best option.
  • Start your journey hassle-free and rent a car directly from the airport grounds of Santo Domingo Airport (SDQ). Located in the north terminal, there are various agencies who offer vehicles for all tastes. The airport is over 19 miles from the city center and public transport is not available directly from the airport, so driving by car is your best choice. Via the scenic coastline Autopista Las Americas, travelers will be in Santo Domingo’s center in about half an hour.
  • Most street signs in Santo Domingo are only stated in Spanish, so, unless you speak the language, it is advised to rent a GPS system with your hire car and also map out your journeys beforehand. Pedestrians are known to simply cross the road without looking, so drive defensively and attentively and always double-check before turning a corner or entering an intersection. Due to badly lit streets and cars driving without headlights, it is also not recommended to drive at night.
  • Santo Domingo’s traffic can be challenging to navigate in the increased peak times of around 7:30-9:30am and 5-7pm, as many commuters clog up the streets. Don’t be surprised when motorcyclists simply squeeze through cars lined up in traffic jams, as it is very common in Santo Domingo. The Expreso 27 de Febrero runs straight through the heart of the city to the coast line and should be avoided during rush hour.
  • 25% of our users found rental cars in Santo Domingo for ₪99 or less
  • Book your rental car in Santo Domingo at least 4 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Standard rental cars in Santo Domingo are around 14% cheaper than other car types, on average

Bad experience with my car and the agent lack of communication and knowledge. Was informed that the car was full and did not notice it was half of a tank. I will never again pay so much money and rent with Alamo car rental.

JD, Apr 2021

KAYAK

Pros:

The drop off was extremely easy and the staff very professional. I was very happy with the taxi offer.

Cons:

I was a bit surprised by the additional $500 deposit at the pickup location. The deposit was almost 250% more than the cost of the rental car itself - which only totaled $201. It would have been a little more comforting to know that this extra amount was required prior to arriving at the location. Knowing at booking allows for precise budgeting for the trip.

Pros:

I didn’t like anything.., When I got there, they told me that they didn’t recognize the insurance that I paid before I got there. Then, they increased the car prices and wanted to get the insurance from them for a lot of money, then another $500 down in case something happened... My question was how they can make people pay all that money for a liability insurance

Pros:

Nothing, the customer service sucked! My reservations were canceled due to time difference that I was not made aware of when booking plus they did not problem solve were very dismissive and said they had No cars at all.

Cons:

Customer service could have advised about the time difference plus the hold of vehicles. I should have been guided to other rental companies that would have given me a better deal. I had to figure it all out by myself. They guys there suck big time.

WORST RENTAL EXPERIENCE. Our flight was delayed and we arrived a few hours later than the pickup time at the AVIS counter at the airport. They just CANCELLED our reservation and offered us another car for three times the original price that was written in our contract. They had all our flight informations and were supposed to know about potential delays but they just ‘didn't check’… We had to rent another car, last minute, with another company for 50% more money and got a small city car instead of a (much needed for our trip) SUV. Again, WORST RENTAL EXPERIENCE!

The staff were friendly, and the car was in good condition. However my rental was supposed to be $83.98 with the $300 deposit that was blocked on my card to be released on return of the car. The $300 is still out of my account nearly two weeks later. It has cost me $400 for renting a car for a few hours.

Despite making a reservation months in advance, I was told no car was available at the time of my reservation and was directed to wait over 3 hours for a car. The cost of the reservation online was about $500, but I was told at the counter the actual total cost would be about $900. Unacceptable business practices. I gave my business to a different rental car company for the entirety of my stay. I also watched a number of other people make the switch from Hertz to the other rental car company due to the same issues. Hertz lost plenty of business that day due to poor business practices and service.
