Overall satisfied. During the period, a tire blew out, causing significant delays. They couldn't replace the car promptly and insisted on fixing the tire. Even the tire replacement was delayed, and we waited a long time for the tow truck. Time is so precious during trips!
The counter is right in the baggage claim area, indoors. The car was parked at a temporary parking lot just outside the airport. Renting at the airport is more reliable and relatively cheaper than in other parts of the island. I hoped to get a Jazz (Honda Fit), and indeed that's what I got. The car was in good condition, though not brand new. We drove for 10 days from the south to the north, nearly covering the entire island.
The counter couldn't read our card and insisted it was our problem. Not until three people from different countries tried and failed did they admit it was their card reader issue. They offered no alternative solutions, wasting over an hour of our time. The first car they gave us was wrong, a smaller engine model. How come mistakes never work in your favor? We waited a long time for another car, and it still wasn't the model we reserved. Since the engine capacity was similar and we had already wasted a lot of time, we accepted it. Returning the car was even more frustrating. We called hours in advance to arrange the return but were told to call ten minutes prior. When we tried, the phone wouldn't connect. The airport signs were confusing, and we couldn't find the counter. We almost missed our flight and had to run to make it. It was a terrible experience.
As long as you bring the required documents and speak English, there are no issues. The shops in Phuket are small, so you cannot choose the car by yourself.
In addition to credit and debit cards, you can now pay for online car rentals with cryptocurrency! Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) are accepted. Curious about how long a Bitcoin transaction takes or how to pay with Bitcoin? Read our FAQs for more details.
