— The Honest Answer

Do You Really Need a Car in Curaçao?

Short answer: yes

Curaçao is bigger than it looks, and the best beaches sit far from the hotels. There is no Uber or Lyft on the island, and a taxi to the far coast can cost $60 to $80 one way. Buses do not run to quiet coves like Grote Knip or Playa Kenepa.

With your own car you can reach Westpunt in under an hour, swim with sea turtles at Playa Piskadó, and stop wherever you like on the way back. For most visitors, a car costs about the same as two long taxi rides — and gives you the whole island instead of one hotel beach.

$60–$80 One-way taxi to the far coast
0 Uber, Lyft, or buses to Grote Knip
<1 hr Drive to Westpunt, your own pace

— Why Book With Us

Why Rent From a Local Curaçao Team

Andy, Ronald, and the team have run this company from Willemstad since 2015. We live here. We hand you the keys, tell you where the water is calm that week, and answer the phone if anything goes wrong. Locals call the island dushi, which means sweet. We want your trip to feel that way from the first minute.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Around Curaçao and the incredible service Andy and his team provided during my trip! From the very beginning, they were professional, responsive, and genuinely kind, especially compared to other rental companies on the island. Communication was fast and seamless, which made the entire experience stress-free.

The vehicle itself was spotless, modern, and in excellent condition. You can immediately tell they truly care about the quality of their cars and their customers’ experience.

What truly sets them apart, though, is their unmatched customer service. I accidentally left the lights on and drained the battery, and Andy was at my Airbnb within minutes to help recharge it. That level of responsiveness and care is rare anywhere in the world.

Then, after I returned the car, I realized I had left my phone in the airport shuttle van. The driver immediately turned around and personally brought my phone back to me at the airport. That act alone saved my entire travel day and speaks volumes about the honesty and professionalism of this team.

This was hands-down one of the best rental car experiences I’ve ever had while traveling. Around Curaçao goes above and beyond in every way, and I will absolutely rent from them again on future visits to Curaçao. Highly, highly recommend!

I highly recommend using Around Curaçao Car Rental! Andy and his colleague Ronald offer exceptional service, that you don't generally receive at other car rental places anywhere in the world. ( ie. they took us to and from the airport and the hotel, they offer great advice on restaurants to eat and places to visit, etc.) They made our trip to Curaçao a great experience! Thank you again Andy and Ronald!

We had an excellent experience with Around Curacao! Andy took care of our booking and informed us of everything we need to know about getting around the island! He and Ronald provided us with very kind and exceptional service. The car was very clean and the booking was much more affordable than taking a taxi around. They also offer airport pick up and drop off which was very convenient!

Curaçao Car Rental Questions, Answered

Yes. Every rental comes with Collision Damage Waiver, Loss Damage Waiver, and third party liability. Your own risk is $350. One extra driver is free. Tires, glass, and the underside of the car are not covered, which is standard for every company on the island.

Yes. A valid license from your home country works, as long as it uses the Latin alphabet. You do not need an International Driving Permit. The minimum age for our cars is 21.

The policy is full to full. You get a full tank and bring it back full. Fuel prices are set by the government and adjusted each month. In 2026, gasoline runs about $1.40 per liter. The yellow pump is unleaded and the black pump is diesel. Fill up in Willemstad before you drive to Westpunt, because stations get scarce past Soto.

Yes, and it feels familiar to most visitors. You drive on the right, the same side as the United States and mainland Europe. Signs follow Dutch standards, there are no toll roads, and turning right on a red light is not allowed. At roundabouts, cars already in the circle usually go first. Watch for goats and iguanas on the quiet roads out west.
