Updated November 2026

Just Drive Curaçao car rental is a local company that, by its own account, keeps its cars about one minute from Curaçao International Airport (CUR), with a shuttle from arrivals, no security deposit and no credit card requirement. It is also one of the local partners on TropicDrive. Below you find what Just Drive offers according to its own website, what its cars cost on TropicDrive for two weeks in 2027, and how to book the same car while you see other local companies next to its price. We checked everything on November 9, 2026.

Just Drive Curaçao car rental at a glance

Just Drive Curacao Car Rental lists its address as Franklin D. Rooseveltweg 409 in Willemstad. Its About page describes a car park about one minute from the airport and an authorized rental shuttle between the terminal and the office. The cars page groups the fleet into Economy, Compact, Mid-size, Small SUV, Crossover SUV, SUV, Mid-size SUV, Pickup Truck and Minivan.

A few things come with every rental, according to the company's own pages:

  • Unlimited mileage and a full-to-full fuel policy.
  • Rates in US dollars that include insurance, collision damage waiver (CDW) and the 9% government tax.
  • One additional driver at no cost, with a maximum of two drivers per car.
  • A free baby seat on request and a replacement car if yours breaks down.

The company also says on its website that it has been nominated ten times by the World Travel Awards. The site header lists Monday to Sunday, 8:00 to 21:00, and the homepage advertises 24/7 service. If you land late at night or fly out before sunrise, email them your flight details so the shuttle is ready.

Does Just Drive Curaçao deliver to the airport?

Yes, by shuttle rather than from a desk in the terminal. Just Drive's how it works page says a driver meets you at the car rental shuttle area and takes you to the car park about one minute away. At the end of your trip you return the car there and they drive you back to the airport.

Their shuttle instructions are simple. In the arrival hall, turn right and walk to the end of the hallway. Go outside, walk straight ahead to the shuttle pick-up point and look for the Just Drive Curaçao bus. On TropicDrive, the Just Drive cards carry a Free delivery label for airport pickup. Our guide to Curaçao airport car rental compares this with the desks inside the terminal.

Just Drive Curaçao car rental prices on TropicDrive for 2027

On November 9, 2026, we ran two seven-day searches on TropicDrive with pickup and return at Curaçao airport: a peak week (January 10 to 17, 2027) and a quieter one (May 10 to 17, 2027). The table lists every Just Drive card we found, with the daily price as shown, taxes included, next to the lowest local price in the same category.

CategoryCar on the cardJust Drive, Jan 10 to 17Lowest local, JanJust Drive, May 10 to 17Lowest local, May
EconomyKia Picantonot available$48$61 ($427 for 7 days)$37
CompactNissan Versa/Almeranot available$55$68 ($475 for 7 days)$43
Compact SUVKia Sonetnot available$85$75 ($528 for 7 days)$66

Mini vanToyota Sienna, 7 seatsnot available$99$106 ($740 for 7 days)$80

Every Just Drive card was an automatic with a minimum age of 23. Each one carried the same labels: No credit card, No deposit required, Free delivery and Instant. The rating on the cards was 4.8 from 324 Google reviews. For scale, the January search returned 117 cars from 16 local companies and the May search 140 cars from 17.

In January only the RAV4 showed up. The other classes did not appear for those dates, so if you want a JustDrive minivan in peak season, book early.

Is Just Drive Curaçao cheaper than other local rentals?

Not in every class. On November 9, 2026, the Just Drive Kia Picanto cost $61 per day on TropicDrive for May 10 to 17, 2027, against $37 for the cheapest local economy car. In the SUV classes the gap was smaller. Only three of 19 Full SUVs were cheaper than the Just Drive RAV4.

The cheapest car is not always the easiest one. That $37 economy car asked for a credit card and a driver aged 25 or older. The same page also showed a $43 economy car with no credit card and no deposit. That is the point of comparing on one screen. For a broader view of rates through the year, see our guide on how much it costs to rent a car in Curaçao.

JustDrive rental conditions: deposit, credit card and CDW

We opened the Rental Conditions of the Kia Picanto and Toyota RAV4 for May 2027 and of the RAV4 for January 2027. All three showed the same terms:

ConditionWhat the Just Drive listing shows
DepositNone required
CDWIncluded, deductible up to $300 per incident
Third party liabilityAlways included
Optional Zero Risk cover$24 per day ($168 for 7 days), brings the $300 own risk to zero
Payment at pickupCredit and debit cards accepted, no credit card needed
Fuel and mileageFull to full, unlimited mileage

Just Drive's own terms and conditions match this. They say no security deposit is required, the deductible is $300 per damage when you caused it or the cause is unknown, and you can reduce it to $0 with the Zero Risk option. The standard CDW on TropicDrive listings typically excludes tyres, the underbody, roof, mirrors and windows. Our guide to CDW insurance for a Curaçao rental explains what that means in practice.

Do you need a credit card at Just Drive Curaçao?

No. Just Drive's payment page says it accepts cash in US dollars or Caribbean guilders, plus Visa, Mastercard and American Express, and asks for no deposit. Every Just Drive card on TropicDrive carried the No credit card label, with debit cards accepted at pickup. Its terms add a 5% fee when you pay by card.

That makes Just Drive a good fit if you only carry a debit card. Our list of car rentals in Curaçao without a credit card shows more options, and so does our guide to no-deposit car rental in Curaçao.

Who can drive a Just Drive car?

The terms set a minimum age of 23 at pickup and ask that every driver has held a license for at least one year. You only need an international driving permit if your license uses a non-Latin script. The minimum rental is four days. Compare age rules in our overview of the minimum age to rent a car in Curaçao.

How to book Just Drive through TropicDrive

TropicDrive does not own cars. It shows live availability from screened local companies, Just Drive included, and the company itself hands you the keys.

How do I book Just Drive through TropicDrive?

Open TropicDrive's Curaçao airport results, enter your dates and look for the Just Drive logo on the car card. Click Rental Conditions to check the deposit, CDW and payment rules, then press Book Now. You pay a small part online and the rest at pickup, and you can cancel free up to 48 hours before arrival.

Four steps, about two minutes:

  1. Open the results for local car rental in Curaçao and enter your dates and pickup point.
  2. Filter on the class you want, such as Compact SUV or Mini van.
  3. Spot the Just Drive card by its logo and open Rental Conditions.
  4. Check the other local cards in the same class, then book the one that fits.

On our May test, the Kia Picanto showed "Pay today: US$71" out of a $427 total, with the rest due at pickup.

Booking direct or through TropicDrive

Both routes give you a Just Drive car. Here is what differs, based on Just Drive's terms and the TropicDrive listing.

Price comparisonJust Drive's rates onlyJust Drive next to 15 or 16 other local companies in our tests

We did not run a dated search on Just Drive's own site, so we cannot tell you which route is cheaper for your trip. Its cars page listed starting rates from $43.28 per day for Economy to $86.65 for a Minivan when we checked, and it advertised a discount running until December 9, 2026. Get both totals for your dates and take the lower one. The TropicDrive screen adds what a direct quote cannot: every other local offer in that class, side by side.

Just Drive Curaçao reviews and what to check before you book

Plenty of travelers look up JustDrive Curaçao reviews before they book. Here is what we could check ourselves, plus the points to settle before you pay.

Are Just Drive Curaçao reviews good?

On the numbers we could check, yes. The Just Drive card on TropicDrive showed a 4.8 rating from 324 Google reviews on November 9, 2026. The company's own website also points to reviews on Google, Facebook and TripAdvisor. Read a few recent ones about pickup times and car condition before you book.

5 things to check before you book Just Drive

These apply whether you book direct or through TropicDrive.

  1. The total for your dates. Just Drive's minimum rental is four days, so compare seven-day totals, not daily rates.
  2. The $300 own risk. Decide before pickup whether Zero Risk cover is worth it for your trip.
  3. How you will pay the balance. Cash in dollars or guilders is fine, and card payments carry a 5% fee under Just Drive's terms.
  4. Your flight times. Email your flight number if you land after 21:00 or leave before 8:00.
  5. Your drivers. Everyone must be 23 or older and have held a license for at least a year, and only one extra driver is allowed.
