Good communication but the numbers were not good for me
I rented a Suburban for 9 people in December for a week. Although it wasn't a new vehicle, as it was a 2017 model and had some minor imperfections, it was in good condition.

The process and service were very quick, clear, and efficient. The woman who assisted me was very friendly. The process took no more than 30 minutes, and that was only because of a thorough inspection of the vehicle.

The return process was also very quick and transparent; it took no more than 15 minutes.

They picked me up at the airport upon arrival and drove me to the rental car upon return.

Everything was excellent. Highly recommended. It has been the best car rental service I've had in recent years.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Car Rental Experience!

The entire process was incredibly smooth and hassle-free. Fantastic communication, quick pickup, and no hidden fees.

The car was essentially brand-new and exactly as described. Drop-off was just as easy as pickup, making the whole experience stress-free.

What really stood out was the customer service: honest, friendly, and fluent in both Spanish and English.

I highly recommend Gecko to anyone looking for a reliable, no-nonsense car rental.

We rented a car with Gecko and had a really positive experience. The car was in great shape. There are no hidden fees and everything about renting with them was communicated clearly, fairly and honestly. We were even in a small fender bender (no fault of ours) and they sent someone to the scene to help translate with the insurance providers. They made a situation that sounds like a nightmare totally fine, and all was dealt with within an hour.
We would definitely rent from them again.

Outstanding Experience with Gecko Rent A Car Puerto Vallarta
Fair, Honest, and Excellent Service — October 2025
I recently had the pleasure of renting a vehicle from Gecko Rent A Car Puerto Vallarta for a week-long stay October 2025, and I can confidently say that my experience was nothing short of great. From the moment I made my reservation, (shoutout to Kenna) and the team, they all demonstrated genuine professionalism, honesty, and fairness.
Transparent Pricing and Honest Service
What truly set Gecko Rent A Car apart was their transparency. There were no hidden fees or surprise charges — everything was clearly explained upfront. The rental rates were extremely fair compared to other agencies, and the staff made sure I understood all terms, insurance options, and local driving tips before I drove away.
Good Vehicle and Hassle-Free Process
The car I received was in good condition: clean, well-maintained, and reliable. Pickup and drop-off were quick and efficient, with friendly staff guiding me through each step.
Exceptional Customer Care
The team at Gecko Rent A Car genuinely cares about their customers. Their friendliness and willingness to help made me feel valued and confident throughout my rental experience. Shoutout again to Kenna.
Response from the owner 18:08 03 Nov 25
Thank you for your amazing review! We are so happy to hear that your experience was fair, transparent, and hassle-free. We strive to provide honest and warm service. Kenna and the team will be thrilled to hear that they left such a good impression! 🦎✨

After using a different rental car agency on a previous trip we decided to try gecko. All the reviews are true. Great cars, fair pricing, zero surprise fees, staff is amazing in spanish or English, office is air conditioned, good quality child seat selection. If you don't fill the car up with gas before bringing it back they will drive you to the gas station en route to your airport drop off instead of just charging you a crazy amount like other rental places. Definitely will be my only choice on return trips.

Thank you!

I recently had an outstanding experience with Gecko. From the moment we arrived, their team was incredibly helpful and friendly. They went above and beyond by taking the time to explain local traffic laws, ensuring we felt confident and well-prepared for our journey.

There were no hidden fees or last-minute costs, which made the entire process stress-free and straightforward.
I highly recommend renting with them if you're looking for a hassle-free, honest, and friendly car rental experience.

A little disappointed with the car we were given. We rented an HR-V, but they gave us a slightly battered Tracker with all the paint scraped like a scouring pad. It needed a bit more deep cleaning, too. The staff was attentive.

We had a fantastic experience with Gecko! When we landed at the airport, there was a friendly driver waiting to take us straight to their rental location. The staff was welcoming and made the process quick and easy. Our car was clean, well-maintained, and came with a full tank of gas—ready for adventure.

We took the car to the beach and ended up with sand all over the interior, but when we returned it, they assured us not to worry and didn’t charge anything extra. That level of understanding and customer service really stood out.

Highly recommend Gecko Car Rental for anyone visiting the area—friendly staff, quality cars, and stress-free service from start to finish!

Without hesitation, I would recommend Gecko if you need to rent a car in PVR. Our flight was delayed, and they proactively reached out to give us options to get the car before they closed their office for the evening. The car was clean and as expected, and no trying to upcharge or change rates - pleasantly there were no "surprises." They were very timely in responding to our initial request to rent and great communication, generally. Their staff is very pleasant and helpful.

Really good company. They picked us up at the VIP section of the airport. The whole time I wasn't sure if the VIP section was one of the many scams that bombarded us when we arrived, but it's not! Speaks perfect English. Gave me a quick lesson on how to drive on the crazy streets. We got a flat tire during our trip, which I was able to change, but they didn't charge me since they were able to patch it up later. Gave us a ride to the gas station so we could fill the tank, and then drove us to the airport when we left so that we didn't have to ride a shuttle. The price they gave me was the price we paid. No hidden fees, extra insurance, etc. They picked us up at the VIP section of the airport. The whole time I wasn't sure if the VIP section was one of the many scams that bombarded us when we arrived.

My husband and I travel to Mexico quite often and it's always such a headache renting cars there, especially when it comes to insurance. This was our first trip to Puerto Vallarta and prior to going, I did a lot of research about car rentals. I am so grateful I found Gecko! Their incredible reviews are what sold me. Of course my husband was still skeptical..once we arrived the pick up was a breeze and the price I was quoted was exactly what I paid. No up sales, no pushy, rude employees. Honestly they were some sweet beautiful ladies and they were very helpful! They even provided directions on how to safely drive on the highway. Getting back to the airport is easy too! Just bring the car back to them, and they drive you in the same car to the airport. I highly recommend this company and when we return to PV, I will definitely use Gecko in the future!!

I rented from Gecko Rent A Car again based on my previous excellent experience, and they again went above my expectations. The booking process was seamless and the all-inclusive pricing including insurance makes this a no-hassle, 100% confidence, straightforward booking.

Communication was excellent. My flight was delayed by almost 2 hours, which would have had me land past their closing time. They reached out to me and offered to park the car in the airport parking lot, or to reschedule my reservation. I requested for parking lot pickup and the process was easy and I was on my way soon after landing.

I also got a flat tire during my trip, and their emergency number support was top notch. Jose arrived quickly, changed my spare and took me to a tire repair shop nearby. The car was clean, reliable and in great condition.

I highly recommend them again for anyone traveling to the area. I sure will next time I visit Puerto Vallarta!

------------------- Past

This is great, a flat rate per the number of days you need the car for, all listed on the website. They also have carseats and boosters, which was $10 each for the entire rental period for us (around 6 days). Insurance is included, and they can take you to the gas station on the return to fill up before dropping you off. Definitely a good things given the scams you hear about at gas stations in Mexico. Check-in and checkout were both super easy and they even give you a little quick session on the difference in driving culture in Mexico vs US and some areas to watch out for. Would definitely use them again!

Can easily add our positive review to the many others for this car rental business. They might be one of the best car rental experiences we have had in our travels in Mexico, Europe and Asia. They did exactly what they promised with care, professionalism and honesty. The pickup and return was perfectly smooth, efficient and stress free. The employees were all friendly, patient, professional and helpful. There were no issues or haggling about damages upon return and we were quickly dropped off at the departure terminal. At every step we were encouraged to ask questions or concerns if we had any and everything was explained carefully and in detail. Bottom line: if only everyone did business like Gecko…renting here is an absolute no brainer.

We have used Gecko Car Rental over the last two Christmas vacations to the Puerto Vallarta area and have found them to be an awesome rental company. We were given explicit directions with our online booking and were transported by VIP shuttle to the Gecko Office from the airport. The paperwork was quick, and both cars we have rented were low mileage and in pristine condition. Drop off is easy as they shuttle you to the airport in your rental car. Highly recommended!

Gecko made renting 2 vehicles for our family vacation in Mexico easy. The price they quote is the all-inclusive price including insurance. Getting to Gecko was easy with VIP transfer and it is a quick ride. When we returned the vehicles they drive you to the airport in the vehicle and stop to fill it up and you pay the actual cost of the gas, not an inflated rate. Nice vehicles and well maintained.
We would use them again.

This was our second trip to PV but our first time renting a car. I was originally looking at the big rental companies but while the advertised rates were attractive after reading the reviews I was worried about the long waits and the up sell. I didn't want to deal with that with two youngish kids after a flight. The people at Gecko were a pleasure to interact with, provided free VIP taxi service to their facility, and drop off and the trip back to the airport was painless when we were departing. Would highly recommend.

Great car rental experience. Takes all the worry away about insurance in Mexico. Easy pickup and easy return. I brought the car back empty and they filled it up for me. Completely trustworthy. Very price competitive. I highly recommend them.

We've rented a car with Gecko on three different trips now, and it's always been excellent: the cars, the attention, and the service the agency provides. I wish there were car rental agencies like this in all the tourist destinations in Mexico!
A thousand times more recommendable than any of the "big" rental companies that usually have terrible service.

We have rented many times from gecko in the past four years, usually about two weeks and usually we get the compact car. We have always had good service with the car and very good communication with the office staff. Never a problem when returning the car as far as being accused of extra scratches or dents. No hidden charges and very friendly staff. Highly recommended.

I use Gecko for storing my vehicle when I head back to Canada. They pick it up at the airport, take it to their compound and drop it off the day I arrive back in Vallarta. All clean amd shiny! Great dependable service for a very fair price!

Thank you for trusting Gecko 🦎 to take care of your car. We always make sure you receive it without any problems or faults, clean and ready for pickup. See you next time in Vallarta! ☀️🚗

Rented from Gecko Car Rentals and had a great experience. As i was told to expect, it’s no-frills but exactly what you want: efficient, transparent pricing, and easy check-in/return. Staff spoke English, were professional and courteous throughout, and even offered complimentary drop-off at the airport. The Bucerías location was convenient and easy to access. Overall, simple, straightforward, and stress-free—would definitely use again.

They are great, no crazy insurance markups, everything up front. Super friendly and helpful with tips for driving in MX too, both on the road stuff and dealing with the police shake downs.

Incredible prices and services. Manager somehow managed to recognise us, despite the fact that the last car we rented from them was 2 years ago at the Puerto Vallarta location. Beautiful clean, new car too. In significantly better condition than other rental cars.

We rented a car for two days to visit punta de mita and sayulita. We were given an all in cost estimate including all insurance coverage and we paid the same at the end- no hidden fees! They were so great to work with, helped us with directions, rules of the road, and everything we needed to know. They also offered a shuttle to the puerto Vallarta airport after drop off. We will only rent from here when we come to PV

I've rented multiple cars in Mexico and this was my first time trying Gecko! It was by far the best experience yet. The most important thing for me was that there were no hidden fees, all the fees were explained prior to renting at their offices. Great and fast service from David! Thanks a lot, will definitely rent again when I'm back. Cheers
I rented and then bought a car from Gecko. The process was amazingly seemless. This was the best way to buy a car in PV in my opinion. Great customer service and communication. Thanks for making this a fantastic experience. Dr Susan

15+ years of renting cars from Gecko. Never a problem with vehicle quality. Service is superb. As others have said: no hassle, no insurance scams. What could be better? Transport to and from the airport, or even pick the car up yourself, right from the airport parking lot as we have done many times, especially when your flight arrives late in the evening.
You can't go wrong with Gecko.

The price is very fair and included all insurance required by local laws. The price quoted was the full price I paid. I had a 4 door Jetta. Well maintained & clean. Approx $50 per day. E-mail reservation & English communication was excellent. Denis met me at an office in the Plaza Marina location (by appointment only) for both car pickup and drop off. It really doesn't get any better! Smooth transaction!
