This shuttle will take you to the Rental Car Area where Blue Car Rental will be your second stop on its route. Quite convenient and easy to find.

All our customers can reduce their liability to zero by opting for our Liability Waiver.

The Liability Waiver reduces the liability amount for damages to zero. This includes damages covered by CDW/SCDW, GP, TP, Tire Protection and SAAP but also includes damages such as damage to the underside, wind blowing up the doors and water damages. This allows our renters to have a carefree experience with Blue Car Rental while enjoying our beautiful island.

Excluded are damages not covered by insurances as stated in Article 29 and 32 in the Rental Agreement and terms and conditions, for example intentional damages, damages caused by negligence or damages resulting from driving where prohibited.

Please note: Insurances can only be applied before the rental starts, not during the rental period.
