Top tips for hiring a car at Cozumel airport

  • You can make your vacation on the island of Cozumel an exciting one by renting a car at Cozumel Airport. A car rental will enable you to hit the road to your destination shortly after landing at CZM and on your own schedule. Apart from that, a nice rental car in this part of Mexico will give you an added advantage to drive to places that public transportation may not reach. With your rented car, you can enjoy endless road trips around Cozumel Island while taking your vacation experience to another level.
  • To enjoy your stay in Cozumel, you’ll definitely need a car that suits your taste and budget. A car rental at Cozumel Airport will definitely provide you with the right car for your travel needs. However, you must be at least 21 years of age to rent a car from one of the car rental companies at CZM. Bear in mind that if you’re below 21 years old you will be subject to the usual daily young driver fee. Make sure to confirm your eligibility with the specific rental car agency before you book.
  • Once you land at Cozumel Airport, proceed to collect your luggage and go straight to the Shuttle Rental Car Area located outside the baggage claim section of the airport. You’ll most likely find an agent who will direct or arrange for the shuttle bus to take you to the car pick-up location. Ensure that you get clear instructions about the car return time from your car provider before you drive off to your destination. The pick-up and drop-off hours at CZM are from 8 am to 8 pm from Monday to Sunday.
  • The best day for pick-up or drop-off of your car rental at Cozumel Airport is on Saturday because this is the least busy day at the airport. Avoid peak hours, which start from 5 pm to 6 pm to save yourself from spending time waiting in line. This means that you should be at the car pick-up point or car return area a few hours before 5 pm on weekdays.
  • Book your car hire at Cozumel airport at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Cons:

I bought the insurance online when I reserved the car but when I went to pick up the car the employee said the insurance I bought online was worthless. He said I need to buy insurance from him or I wouldn't have any, or very little liability coverage. I didn't appreciate having to buy insurance twice.

Location was not in the airport as described. After trekking across a parking area and field to the location we discovered our car had been given away because we missed the reservation time by about 1/2 an hour. (I had tried to change the pick up time on line multiple times prior to arrival but the website wasn’t working properly.) Our friend’s reservation was still good, but the proposed car looked sketchy and the employee who met us tried to force him to pay a bunch of previously hidden fees. We walked back to the airport and booked with Hertz, who were very professional and kind.

We changed the reservation and when we arrived there were no cars. This was disappointing. The man working at Budget was very nice and sorry. But he had no cars.

The process went smooth, but there were a ton of fees added on that we were not prepared for. The rental ended up costing us $1100 for only 3 days

Hertz could have actually had cars available at the location. Got to the airport and it was the guys day off. Nobody working counter. Finally found someone to call him and he had no car even available

Pros:

We arrived to the airport, went to the Hertz counter and were informed that they did not have our vehicle. They tried to sell me on another vehicle half the size (which would not fit my group), and for more money.

Cons:

Honesty? Not giving away a vehicle that I had reserved, leaving me stranded at the airport to figure it out?

They could have had the car or any car that they rented to me. Luckily Avis next door had a car to rent.

They did not have the car that I reserved. Also added additional fees at the pickup. They offered to take me to the hotel and deliver the car the next day, but we had already booked a tour that we needed the car for and honestly I didn’t trust them.

We arrived at Alamo and they did not have a vehicle for us. They said Kayak did not confirm whether Alamo had cars available. It was the worst car rental experience I have ever had.

Kayak shouldn't be booking car rentals when they've been warned by Alamo that they have no rental's. I had to pay triple the cost to secure a car in Cozumel for a week because of Kayaks failure.
