Welcome to Coudicar SXM!
By accessing or using our website, booking a rental vehicle, or engaging in services provided by Coudicar SXM, you agree to the following Terms of Service. Please read them carefully.
1. Company Information
Coudicar SXM is a local car rental service proudly operating in beautiful Sint Maarten. Our website and services are provided for personal, non-commercial use, unless otherwise approved in writing.
2. Booking and Payment
-
All bookings are subject to availability.
-
A valid driver’s license and credit card are required at the time of rental (no need for an international driver’s license).
-
Payments are processed in USD unless stated otherwise.
-
A pre-authorization (not a charge) is required on your credit card at the time of delivery for security and damage deposit purposes. This amount is automatically released about 1 hour after the vehicle is returned, pending a quick inspection.
-
Full payment must be made before or at the time of delivery.
3. Cancellation and Refunds
-
Cancellations made 48 hours or more before the rental period are eligible for a full refund, minus a $50 cancellation fee.
-
Cancellations made less than 48 hours before the rental start date may incur a fee (typically one day’s rental charge).
-
No-shows or same-day cancellations are non-refundable.
4. Vehicle Use and Responsibility
The renter is responsible for the vehicle during the rental period. Vehicles must not be used:
-
Off-road or on unpaved roads
-
For racing or illegal activities
-
By unauthorized drivers
Renters are responsible for:
-
Any damage, loss, or theft not covered by insurance
-
Traffic violations, fines, and towing fees
Vehicles must be returned with the same fuel level, or a refueling fee will apply.
5. Insurance Coverage
Liability Insurance is optional, but strongly recommended. It covers damage you may cause to third parties — including both property and bodily injury. This can be added for $9/day. Without it, you are fully responsible for any such damages.
Collision Damage Waiver with Theft Protection (CDW) is another optional coverage. It’s available for $15/day, with a $1,000 deductible in the event the vehicle is stolen or damaged.
CDW covers damage to the rental vehicle and theft during your rental. Without it, you’d be liable for the full cost of repairs or replacement, which can be significant.
You may decline CDW if your credit card offers full primary rental car coverage — just double-check your policy before opting out.
Important: CDW does not cover:
Damage to other vehicles
Bodily injury to other people
Injuries to you or your passengers
Theft or damage of personal items inside the car
Nobody wants to need insurance, but it’s better to have it and not need it — than to need it and not have it.
6. Delivery and Return
-
We offer free delivery and pickup anywhere on the island, including directly at SXM Airport.
-
Delivery times are approximate and may be affected by traffic, weather, or back-to-back bookings.
-
Late returns may result in additional charges.
7. Privacy Policy
We respect your privacy. Any personal information you share with us is used only to provide your car rental service — we will never sell or share your data. View our full Privacy Policy for details.
8. Modifications to Terms
Coudicar SXM may update these Terms from time to time without prior notice. Continued use of our services means you accept the most recent version.
9. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of Sint Maarten. Any disputes will be handled exclusively by the local courts.
