Kas di Sono - Car use on Curaçao
Having holidays on Curaçao without a car will mean you will miss many of its attractions, not in the
least the beautiful beaches on the whole south shore of the island. Furthermore, a car is very
convenient when you go shopping or buying your groceries. Supermarkets are located in shopping areas,
most of the time to far to walk. Public transport is limited.
Roads on Curaçao are mainly good though in some places and during the ‘wet' months there can be some
holes in the tarmac, so please drive carefully. Driving rules can be compared to most rules in Europe
and the US (they drive in the right side of the road).
Hyundai Tucson
You can also make reservations including a car. Kas di Sono offers a choice of 2 fine cars, both SUV's.
A compact-SUV (Hyundai Tucson) and a larger one (Hyundai Sante Fe), both spacious and nice cars to drive
on Curaçao. Both have automatic transmission.
The surcharge on the villa rental can be found in the rate section of this website. The rates are very
competitive; basis rates come with own liability of EUR 500,00 per accident but you can reduce this to
EUR 125,00 at a surcharge. Furthermore, only local tax is due. So, no hidden charges, taxes or
surcharges and the amount of drivers is unlimited as long as they are 24 years or over and have
their drivers license for at least 3 years.
If your stay is longer than 14 nights or you rent both cars, we can offer you a discount on the
surcharge for the car of about 10-15% depending on the length of your stay. Just ask.
Hyundai Sante Fe
The car is used only by guests of the villa, so it will be in good condition. As an extra, the
car is a member of the local Road Assistance who can fix any problem during your stay anywhere on
the island at no charges. They even come to fix a flat tire!
If you prefer to larger car, we can help you. Kas di Sono offers you, in cooperation with her local care
taker (Villas & More), possibilities to have a car with 6-7 seats. Just ask when making bookings
or inquiries.
Extra advantage of using our car: we will bring you from the airport to the villa at no extra
charge; of course we will bring you back to the airport too. Normal transfer rate is € 15,00 (about
US $ 22,50) per person.
What you have to know:
- we provide children's seats (1st one free of charge, more if available and at a small charge,
please make reservations when booking a car);
- no limit in the amount of drivers, no surcharges;
- the car will be ready at the villa, so no waste of time after you arrived at the airport caused
by waiting lines at the rental companies; and no loss of time when you depart;
- the minimum age of the driver is 24; must have drivers license for at least 3 years;
- a deposit of € 300,- per car (€ 800,- if you don't reduce the own liability), to be
paid by bank or in cash (in EURO or its equivalent in US-dollars);
- the car must be left with a full tank and clean (inside, outside). If not, a surcharge
applies.
