Samui best rent-a-car offers
Bookingauto (Samui) strives to make your car rental experience as simple and convenient as possible. This also applies to the location of rental points. Our clients can pick up cars in the most popular places, whether it be the city centre, airport, or main railway station. The list of our pick-up locations is extensive, meaning that visitors who book cars with us in Samui can always collect them from the most suitable place.
Options and possibilities:
We take into account the preferences of our customers and look for a car that fits into the right category. For example, those who come to Samui on their own or with a small company can rent a spectacular convertible BMW 4 Cabrio from us, starting at €68 per day and rented out by the popular company sixt in Samui. For those of you who arrive with your whole family or friends, a roomy and reliable minivan Peugeot Traveller might be best - from €66 per day. For anyone who loves comfort and doesn’t have limited funds, budget recommends opting for a business class car like BMW 7 Series for €64 per day. For those travelling on a budget, rent a compact model Seat Ibiza for just €17 per day.
Select the exact date and time for picking up and returning the car:
If you want to save money, choose the same pick-up and return time. Car rental companies charge for a full day of rent, so if you rent a car for 25 hours, you pay for 48 hours (two full days), and 73 hours would be equivalent to four full days of rent.

Price changes Samui depending on the season
During the high season in summer, car rental in Samui costs 20-30% more than at other times. For example, renting the VW Passat popular in Samui costs €34 per day in July. In autumn, you’d pay about €8 for the same model.
During the holidays, the demand for car rental is very high, which is reflected in both the price and the choice of available cars. Therefore, you should book in advance if possible.
In the summer, prices for convertibles are especially high. As a guideline, a BMW 4 Cabrio will cost €68 per day for the duration of the vacation period.

Business class car rental in high season is also more expensive. For example, renting a BMW 7 Series costs about €64 per day.
The excitement noticeably subsides in autumn and rental companies begin to reduce their rates. For example, you can rent a VW Tiguan very cheaply in the autumn for just €29 per day.
It will also be easier to find unusual and exclusive car models. For example, by renting a Porsche Cayenne, you will experience real driving pleasure and enjoy a luxurious visit that will remain in your memory forever.

How to cancel a reservation without penalties
On our website, you can cancel or change your booking in Samui under certain terms.
The booking can be cancelled with a full refund at least 24 hours in advance (in some cases, 48 hours may be needed).
If cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice (or 48 hours in some cases), the administration fee will be deducted from the online payment amount but the rest of the money will be returned to your bank account.
Each vendor has a different cancellation policy and administration fee for different cars. Therefore, we recommend that you carefully read the cancellation policy before booking.
Remember that cancellations and changes are not possible after the pick-up time. This applies to all bookings.
Applies to all bookings:
If your online payment is less than the stated administration fee, there will be no refunds when cancelling your booking once the administration fee is applied.
If your booking is made less than 24 hours prior to the pick-up time (or 48 hours in some cases), a cancellation policy will be automatically applied to your booking.
Important information: All cancellations must be made in the “Manage My Booking” section and not directly through the car rental company itself.
Insurance coverage cancellation:
If the car was booked with an additional insurance product, the policy will be automatically ended upon cancellation. The issue of reimbursement is resolved within the framework of the cancellation policy provided for by the terms of the insurance product.
