Our fuel policy is “return with the same level as picked up.” If the car is returned with less fuel than at pick-up, Duluxe Car Rentals will estimate the cost and charge the client upon return of the car.

Your rental car is expected to be returned in a reasonably clean condition. If a car is returned and requires excessive cleaning, a cleaning fee ranging from Rs 400 to Rs 700 will be applicable, depending on the size of the car.

For short visits up to 4 weeks, a valid national license (in English characters) often suffices. However, for longer stays, or if your license isn’t in English, an International Driving Permit (IDP) is highly recommended for smoother interactions with rental companies and police in Mauritius.

Many of our recent cars are equipped with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, providing modern navigation capabilities by connecting your smartphone.

Yes, child seats and booster seats are available upon request. There is normally a small extra charge, typically between Rs100 to Rs200, although they may be provided free of charge depending on your booking period. Please specify your need for these items when making your booking so we can confirm availability and exact pricing.

Yes, we offer delivery and collection services all over the island, including SSR International Airport (MRU). The delivery cost ranges from Rs800 to Rs1200 per way, depending on the location.

A friendly Duluxe Car Rentals representative, wearing a polo shirt and a yellow cap with “DULUXE” written on it, will be waiting for you outside Gate 6 at the airport arrivals.

Please note the following regarding cancellations:

  • Any downpayment made is non-refundable.

  • Early returns are not refundable.

  • For other cancellation terms, please refer to your booking confirmation or contact us directly.

No security deposit is required. However, in the unfortunate event of an at-fault accident or damage, the excess for insurance is Rs25,000.

All our cars are fully insured. This includes Personal Accident Insurance (PAI), Theft Waiver (TW), and third-party liability coverage, meaning passengers are also insured. Please be aware that there is an excess of Rs25,000 for which the renter is liable in case of an at-fault accident or damage.

  1. Contact Duluxe Car Rentals at +23058945858 (our 24/7 emergency contact number).

  2. Take clear photos of the scene, including involved vehicles, driving licenses, and the car’s insurance vignette found on the windscreen.

  3. Call the police if required, especially for injuries or if other parties are involved.

  4. Fill out the accident report form found in the glovebox of your rental car.

Crucially, its genuine off-road capability allows access to hidden landscapes not reachable by standard vehicles, offering an unparalleled way to experience Mauritius’s natural beauty.

The average cost to rent a car in Mauritius is around Rs 1200 per day for a small economy car, though this can vary depending on the car make and size, rental duration, and time of year.
