About Liberia Airport

Liberia International Airport (LIR) is an important entry way into the western region of the beautiful country of Costa Rica. The airport is dedicated to the former president of the nation and it is officially known as the Daniel Oduber Quiros International Airport.

There are regular flights to the USA, Central and South America. Arriving customers can make use of Sixt's car rental service, a professional car hire service.

Things to see and do in Liberia

Liberia is a small city on the western coast of Costa Rica. It is over 125 miles away from San Jose, the capital of the country. The city is sometimes called the white city (la ciudad blanca), this nickname comes from the distinctive white gravel used to make roads in the region. In addition, most of the locals have painted their houses white, thus encouraging the city's nickname. Travellers may want to hire a car and drive the beautiful roads along the western coastline of the country. Alternatively, there are plenty of things to do in Liberia itself. The city has a large number of historical sites to see; much of the local history is related to the power struggles between Nicaragua and Costa Rica. Also, very popular (and located just outside of the city) is the Rincon de la Vieja Volcano National Park.

Rented a 4x4 SUV for 3 weeks. First it was a Hyundai Tucson or similar, then changed to some brand I didn't know, and when we arrived it was a Geely, also a brand I am not familiar with. It was still a similar vehicle in the class I ordered and turned out to be a good quality 4x4 for some of the really bad roads we encountered. We went to some remote places with steep inclines/declines and lots of potholes in every direction and the vehicle handled it all - slow and careful driving, but I never felt unsafe in the vehicle. The staff were friendly and helpful and the pick-up and return were easy and quick. Our last night we stayed at the airport hotel for an early morning flight. There's a great restaurant, Little Lucha, in the same parking lot as SIXT Liberia, so we had dinner there, returned the car, and the staff gave us a ride back to our hotel afterwards. Great service, all around.

SIXT to the rescue! After a long flight into Liberia airport in Costa Rica, we had a horrible experience with EuropCar, who we had reserved with prior to our trip! Across the parking lot we saw SIXT and thought we would check out our options! Well thank God we did! Went in feeling super deflated and left happy quickly thereafter, with a car at a fair price and a customer service experience that you don't find very often these days! Thank you Bryan for starting our holiday off on the right foot, when it so easily could have been the wrong one!

We booked online using a comparison site. Car pick-up was quick and easy! Our booking included a good insurance, which does not appear in the SIXT system, so they offered us another one (not compulsory).
