Лучшая компания в пунта кане по аренде машин, рекомендую от чистого сердца, все круто, быстро и дешево, брал мустанг гт, очень доволен! Хуан Карлос - отдельное спасибо, все на высшем уровне!)))
Ha sido una empresa profesional, manteniéndonos informados de todo detalle antes y durante el alquiler del vehículo. Si volvemos a R. Dominicana repetiremos con vosotros. Gracias
Excelente servicio. Lo pedí de un momento a otro y me lo trajeron de inmediato. Me hicieron la devolución del depósito sin problema. El vehículo no falló y el aire acondicionado excelente. El trato de la persona que me trajo el vehículo al hotel excelente. Gracias Maxin
Absolutamente confiables autos en muy buen estado una atención de personas extranjeras para tomar y dejar el auto. Todo muy fácil y te devuelven la seña con los mismos billetes que vos le diste. Recomendable 100% y la tarifa una de las mejores. Gracias Autodominicana.
Excelente servicio, el auto era muy cómodo, era lo que necesitábamos para el plan familiar, el agente fue muy puntual a la hora de entregar el auto como de recogerlo en el hotel, precios muy accesibles. Súper recomendable
This is the second time we’ve rented a car in the DR. Auto Dominicana was by far the easiest to communicate with. They had easy to understand insurance packages. We rented a Jeep Cherokee and it was clean and reliable. Pick up and drop off was easy to do at the airport.
Rental process was very smooth. Paid in cash and the driver had card machine for deposit, and when the car returned i got an email almost immediately about my deposit being released back. I Contacted them through what's app the day before to book. The car was delivered and picked up from my resort which made the process even better! Definitely recommend!
One of the best decisions I made during my trip to Punta Cana was renting a car from Autodominicana.
After spending days inside a large resort, I decided to rent a Mustang convertible and explore the island on my own. It completely changed my vacation. I got to see local towns, beaches, countryside, and everyday life far beyond the resort gates. It ended up being one of the most memorable experiences of the entire trip.
The rental process was easy from start to finish. The car was delivered directly to my hotel, communication was excellent, and everything was exactly as promised.
A special thank you to Victoria, who handled the return. She inspected the vehicle, took photos, and returned my deposit immediately. No stress, no arguments, no hidden charges, no surprises.
In a destination where tourists often worry about rental cars, deposits, and extra fees, this company gave me complete peace of mind.
I would absolutely rent from Autodominicana again and highly recommend them to anyone visiting Punta Cana.
Best rental in my opinion. Fast, reliable, affordable, great communication, good selection of cars. Just pure excellence in every way. I already rented 2 times, and will rent again
I would definitely recommend this rental place. With so many scary tourists horrible stories go here. I’m from Houston. They drop off to you and pick up from you. They stayed in contact before drop and before pick up. While I documented any prior damages to the car, the guy talked me through them. Saying yes this scratch was there etc.
We rent KIA Picanto for 1 day to go to Santo Domingo. The car was quite new. The service from Autodominicana was great. They always answer very fast your message and they are very punctual. No problem with returning the car (it took just 5 minutes). Highly recommended!

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about car rental insurance
The age requirement for car rental in the Dominican Republic is typically between 21 and 70 years old.
Driving in the Dominican Republic can be challenging for some visitors. The road conditions can vary, with major highways usually well-maintained, but some secondary roads may have potholes or uneven surfaces. Traffic can be busy, and drivers may exhibit assertive behavior, disregarding some traffic laws. Navigating unfamiliar areas and understanding local signage can also be a challenge. It's advisable to drive cautiously, be alert, and adapt to local driving practices. If you are not comfortable with these conditions, alternative transportation options like taxis or organized tours are available.
Yes, you can usually add extra features like GPS navigation systems, child seats, or additional drivers to your rental reservation. There may be an additional fee for these add-ons.
While a credit card is preferred, we also accept debit cards and cash deposits in certain cases. Please contact our team in advance to confirm eligibility.
For the best car rental in the Dominican Republic, we recommend opting for full coverage insurance for peace of mind. It covers collision, theft, and third-party liability, which is especially helpful when driving in unfamiliar areas.
Autodominicana.rent follows a Full-to-Full fuel policy. This means you’ll receive your rental car with a full tank and must return it the same. If it’s returned with less fuel, you’ll be charged for the difference and a refill fee. This policy is standard among car rental companies and offers a fair and predictable way to manage fuel costs during your trip.
If you return your car rental after the scheduled time, late fees may apply. A short grace period is sometimes allowed, but extended delays can result in full-day charges. To avoid extra costs, always return the car on time or contact customer support if a delay is unavoidable. This is standard among most car rental companies to manage their fleet efficiently.
There’s no need for professional cleaning, but please return the rental car in decent condition. Avoid returning the car with heavy dirt, sand, or trash inside. We may charge a cleaning fee if the interior is excessively dirty. As with any professional vehicle rentals in my area, cleanliness helps ensure a better experience for the next renter.
You can reach our support team 24/7 by phone, email, WhatsApp, or through the website. Whether you're inquiring about your reservation or need help on the road, we’re here to assist. Autodominicana.rent is committed to customer service and stands out among car rental companies for fast, friendly support—before, during, and after your rent a car in Dominican Republic experience.
The Dominican Republic opens up the moment you have your own keys. You leave the resort strip in Bavaro when you feel like it, take the Autovia del Coral west toward Santo Domingo, pull off for lunch in a town the buses skip, and nobody is counting heads. That is the whole reason Autodominicana exists. We are a Punta Cana company, and we hand over cars at the airport every day of the year.
A Fleet for Every Trip and Budget at Autodominicana
We keep more than 50 checked cars on the list, so there is a sensible match for almost any plan. Automatics start from $18 a day. The range runs from small, fuel-sipping compacts that are perfect for the short hop between Bavaro and Cabeza de Toro, to roomy SUVs for a family and a week of beaches, to a few convertibles for the fun of it. Every listing shows real photos of the actual car, so what you book is what we hand you. Support is around the clock, the cars sit near all the main resort areas, and picking one up takes minutes, not an afternoon.
Clear Terms When You Rent a Car in the Dominican Republic
We keep the terms plain, because we explain them at a counter with a queue behind you. Rates are fixed and already include basic insurance (CDW) and round-the-clock help. To rent you need three things: a valid passport, a driving licence held for at least a year, and a credit card for the deposit. Fuel is same-to-same, you bring the car back with what it had, and mileage is unlimited. Drive up to Macao, down to Juanillo, across to the capital and back, and the bill does not move.
How to Book Your Car in the Dominican Republic
Collect the keys near the terminal at PUJ, SDQ or LRM, or have us bring the car to your hotel in Punta Cana or Bavaro. To book or manage your rental, there are four steps:
- Pick the right car: count the people and the bags, then think about where you are going. A Jeep for the sandy tracks out past Macao, a sedan for the city.
- Check your papers: make sure your licence is valid, and read through the rental terms and the local road rules before you land.
- Look the car over: before you drive off, walk around it with us and check the body, lights and interior, so you know exactly what you are taking.
- Sign and go: sign the rental agreement, take the keys, and start your trip.
The booking itself is a few clicks on the site. Once the paperwork is done and the car is washed and waiting, the island is yours to drive at your own pace, on your own schedule.
