Who We Are

Your Car Rental Intermediary in Cyprus

Cheap Rent a Car Cyprus is an online platform that connects travellers with licensed car rental companies across Cyprus. We act as an intermediary - a bridge between you and trusted local car hire providers throughout the island.

We are part of the Localrent White Label network, covering all major cities, resorts, and airports in Cyprus: Larnaca, Paphos, Limassol, Nicosia, Ayia Napa, Protaras, and many more locations across the island.

All rental agreements are concluded directly between you and the car hire company - we facilitate the search and booking process but do not operate as the rental provider ourselves.

Driving in Cyprus - What You Need to Know

Important Disclaimers

Our Role as Intermediary

Cheap Rent a Car Cyprus operates as an intermediary platform powered by Localrent. We connect customers with licensed car rental companies but we do NOT provide car rental services ourselves.

All rental agreements - including vehicle provision, insurance terms, damage liability, fuel policy, and payment conditions - are concluded directly between you and the car hire company. We facilitate the booking process but are not party to the rental contract.

Booking and Payment Terms

When you book through our platform, you pay an advance by card online. This advance is part of the total rental cost. The remaining balance (if any), deposit requirements, and payment methods for the remainder are determined by the rental company and detailed in your booking voucher.

Cash payment is NOT accepted for online advance payment - only card payment. Whether the rental company accepts cash for the remaining balance or deposit is specified in your booking terms.

Rental Company Responsibility

The car rental company is responsible for:

Vehicle provision and condition
Insurance coverage and terms
Pickup and return procedures
Damage assessment and charges
Roadside assistance
Refund of deposits (where applicable)

For any questions or issues related to your rental vehicle, contact the car hire company directly using the information provided in your booking confirmation.

Price and Availability

Prices shown on our platform are provided by the rental companies and may change based on availability, season, and booking date. The price confirmed in your booking voucher is the applicable price for your reservation.

We do not guarantee availability of specific vehicle models - you book a vehicle category, and the rental company provides a vehicle from that category or similar.

No Deposit Availability

Not all rental companies or vehicle types are available without deposit. No deposit options are subject to availability and specific booking conditions set by each car hire provider.

Where no deposit is required, this means no credit card block for security - it does NOT affect insurance coverage, damage liability, or other rental terms which remain as per the rental agreement.
