What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Arenal Hot Springs?
After meticulously planning your big trip, don't scrimp on your insurance — choose collision protection while reserving your Arenal Hot Springs rental vehicle with Expedia. There are loads of advantages to this plan, including up to $35,000 in primary coverage for accident damage, theft and vandalism. Plus, with no deductible and 24/7 emergency support, you can breathe a little easier if the unexpected occurs.
Can I drive in Arenal Hot Springs with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Costa Rica, then you might need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be able to rent a car. It's also important to note that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your current license your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some additional requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or over in most places to rent a car. If you're younger, it might still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before getting behind the wheel. You typically can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with a rental vehicle.
