Rent Kia Carnival in the Dominican Republic

The Kia Carnival is the van we hand to families and small groups who want to travel together without anyone drawing the short straw on legroom. It carries seven or eight people, but the cabin feels closer to a large SUV than to a shuttle bus, with wide seats, real headroom, and a calm ride on the highway that links Punta Cana with the beach towns and the countryside. Both sliding doors open wide, so loading children, grandparents, and a stack of beach bags in a busy resort lot takes seconds rather than a struggle.

Space for people and everything they bring

Inside, the second and third rows are set up so passengers can stretch out on a long drive to Samana or Santo Domingo. With every seat filled there is still a pocket of cargo room behind the last row for soft bags and a couple of suitcases, and when the group is smaller you can fold or slide seats to open a proper cargo bay. Strollers, a cooler, snorkel gear, and a week of luggage all find a home.

An easy drive in Dominican conditions

The Carnival is automatic, and the air conditioning is strong enough to keep the whole cabin cold through the middle of the afternoon. It sits tall enough to see over traffic yet stays narrow enough to park at a supermarket or a small guesthouse gate. Visibility is good, the steering is light in town, and the ride stays composed on the rougher back roads inland.

• Seven or eight seats with flexible second and third rows
• Two power sliding doors for easy loading
• Automatic gearbox and cold, strong air conditioning
• Luggage space that grows as you fold seats

Delivery and pickup

We bring the Carnival to your hotel in Punta Cana or Bavaro with a full tank, or we meet your flight at the airport so the group rolls straight from arrivals to the resort. The rate includes collision coverage and liability with a fixed excess and unlimited mileage, so you can plan day trips without watching the odometer. Bring a driving license, a passport, and a credit card in the driver's name; the main driver must be at least twenty-one, with a small surcharge for drivers under twenty-five. Choose your dates to see the exact daily rate for your trip.
