01
Price
Review What the Rate Includes
Open the Rental Conditions for the specific offer to see what is included in the quoted price and whether any additional charges may apply to your reservation.

Deposit
Expect a Security Deposit
The rental supplier may place a temporary security deposit on the main driver’s payment card when the vehicle is collected. The amount varies between vehicles and suppliers.
03

Understand the Deductible
The deductible, sometimes called the excess, is the amount you may be responsible for if the rental vehicle is damaged or stolen under the applicable protection terms.
04
Protection
Full Coverage
DiscoverCars may offer optional Full Coverage during the booking process. It operates as reimbursement protection for eligible charges covered under its terms.
Optional Protection

What do I need to rent a car at Huatulco Airport?
Requirements vary by supplier, but you should be prepared to present the physical documents required by your rental offer, which commonly include a valid driver’s license, passport or identification and an accepted payment card in the main driver’s name. Review the Rental Conditions before traveling.
Do I need an International Driving Permit in Mexico?
Whether you need an International Driving Permit can depend on your driver’s license and the rental supplier’s requirements. Check the Rental Conditions for the specific vehicle you are booking, especially if your license uses a different alphabet or requires an official translation.
How much does it cost to rent a car at Huatulco Airport?
Rental prices change according to your travel dates, rental duration, vehicle category, supplier and availability. Rather than relying on a fixed daily price, use the Huatulco Airport rental search above to compare current offers for your actual trip.
Will I need to leave a security deposit?
A rental supplier will generally require a security deposit when the vehicle is collected. The amount and accepted payment method can vary by supplier and vehicle, so check the deposit information in the Rental Conditions before booking.
Where do I pick up my rental car at Huatulco Airport?
Pickup arrangements depend on the rental supplier and offer you book. Current HUX offers commonly use in-terminal desks or the airport car-rental area, but the exact instructions vary by supplier. After reserving, follow the pickup information on your rental voucher, which identifies the supplier and tells you exactly where to go after arriving at HUX.
Is unlimited mileage included with Huatulco Airport rentals?
It depends on the offer. Many rentals include unlimited mileage, while others may have a daily, weekly or total rental limit. Check the mileage policy displayed for the vehicle before booking, especially if you plan to drive long distances.
What fuel policy will my rental car have?
Fuel policies vary by rental offer. Your booking information will explain the fuel level provided at pickup and the level expected when the vehicle is returned. Review this before leaving the rental location so you know when and how much to refuel.
What is Full Coverage?
DiscoverCars may offer optional Full Coverage during booking. It is a reimbursement-based protection product for eligible covered charges under its terms. If the rental supplier charges you for an eligible issue, you generally pay the supplier first and then submit a claim for review. Full Coverage does not normally eliminate the supplier’s security deposit requirement.
Should I reserve my Huatulco Airport rental car in advance?
Booking in advance lets you compare the vehicles, suppliers, prices and rental conditions available for your travel dates before arriving at HUX. You can use the search at the top of this page to compare current availability.
Rental requirements, deposits, pickup arrangements, mileage, fuel policies and protection terms vary by supplier and offer. Your booking voucher and Rental Conditions should be treated as the final instructions for your reservation.
