A personalized welcome

Welcome to Pole Caraïbe Airport - Le Raizet

Every customer is unique, and we want to offer you an authentic rental experience. We'll help you choose the vehicle that best suits your needs! There are some small mistakes our valued customers make quite regularly, and these deserve your attention. 

  • If you are a group of 5, book a 5-door car! Not so that everyone has their own door… But because 3-door city cars only have 4 seats!

  • For your information, the trunk of a Ford Fiesta, for example, holds 290 liters, while a Ford Ka+ holds 270 liters, which is roughly enough for 4 small suitcases or 2 larger ones! Keep this in mind if you plan to travel with a lot of luggage! 

  • If you're a group of 7, a 5- to 7-seater vehicle is convenient for short trips and parking, but upon arrival at the airport, an 8- to 9-seater minibus might be more comfortable. Good news: it's accessible with a standard B driving licence!
  • If you are coming to Guadeloupe to visit every corner of the island, renting a vehicle will be the best solution!

The famous security deposit

It's mandatory!

If there is one essential rental condition, it is this one! A quick minute of reading to avoid any surprises…

  • For any vehicle collection, a pre-authorization by credit card will systematically be required.

  • We accept Mastercard, Visa, and American Express. (Please note that Visa V-Pay, Visa Electron, Mastercard Cirrus, Mastercard Maestro, and all prepaid cards are not accepted.)

  • The card used to make the imprint must be that of the main driver, who himself must be present when the contract is signed.

  • Warning! The security deposit amount can range from €650 for a city car to €3,000 for some commercial vehicles. Remember to check your deposit limit before you leave or notify your bank in advance. The limit can usually be increased with a single phone call to your advisor.

  • Without an accepted security deposit (pre-authorization) we will not be able to deliver the vehicle.
