Car rental service in Cyprus gains popularity each year. In Protaras, a relatively small tourist resort, a hire car will help you not only get from hotel to beach in comfort but also explore a fascinating part of the world. This quiet family resort is located relatively far from the main tourist destinations — just 13km from Ayia Napa and 71km from Larnaca. And you will get there by car before you know it.
You get the best of two worlds — recreation at a quiet place and all entertainments of a popular resort. And, of course, you'll be able to visit one-of-a-kind caves and see the nearby windmills located about 10km from the town. Car hire in Protaras enables you to explore the Windmill Valley without putting your body to the test of two things — hot weather and buses — that can be tolerated separately but are hardly tolerable together.
We recommend that you book a car in Cyprus in advance online. Many car hire companies on the island do not guarantee either availability of a suitable vehicle by the time of your arrival or good terms and conditions. Booking a car on our website will guarantee you both.
Is insurance included in the rental price? If not, what is the additional cost?
Hello! The TLP insurance is included in the rental price for all cars on our website. The CDW or SCDW insurance is not available for some cars or is offered at an additional cost. On the car’s page, you can find the insurance details and cost for the entire rental period.
Good afternoon. Can I change the car after booking?
Hello! To change your booking details, please send an email to [email protected] with your voucher number in the subject line. In the body of your email, please explain which details you would like to change.
Hello! Are rental cars equipped with navigation systems?
Hello! No, navigation is optional equipment. The rental company will only provide it if this equipment is included in your booking.
Good afternoon. When booking a car on your website, can I make an advance payment from my card and pay the remaining amount in cash? Is the deposit blocked on the card used to pay for the booking?
Hello! Advance payment is a part of the rental price, which you pay on our website by card only. When booking a car, you only make an advance payment of 15-20% of the rental price. And you will pay the remaining amount when you pick up your car. The bank card details you used to pay the deposit are not linked to the booking. So, you can pay the deposit with a different card when you pick up your car. In the profile of each car, you will find the information on how you can pay the deposit and the remaining amount. You will also see the terms and methods of returning the deposit in cash.
Can I return the car later than my original drop-off time?
If you need to return the car later than your original drop-off time, please, get in touch with car rental company (contact information you can find in your car rental voucher) or with Localrent Customer Support Team.
Hello, is it easy to drive in Cyprus?
For experienced driver it should not be a problem, but anyway it will require all your attention before you start to adopt (usually within a day, but it is pretty much individual). For non-experienced drivers we suggest to choose low traffic roads until you feel you are safe to drive. It may take 2-3 days to get used to traffic.
Hello, Will I have to leave a deposit when I pick up the car?
Hello. It depends on the car you have chosen. The amount and method of deposit's payment also depend on the car. This information is indicated in the car car booking form. The deposit is refunded to you in full amount if the car is not damaged and all rental conditions are met. To select a car without a deposit, use the appropriate filter in the search bar. The site will automatically show you all cars without a deposit.
How do I return my rental car?
Hello. Car rental company representative will come to meet you and to pick up the car at the location which you specified in your booking. Sometimes you can agree directly with car rental company that you just leave the keys on reception of your hotel, or leave the car at airport parking lot - but this is an exception and must be preliminary agreed with car rental company.
