Compare Car Hire DealsStandard Inclusions and Extra Costs
Local Naxos rental agreements usually include the items below in the base rate.
Standard inclusions (verified across local Naxos companies):
- • Unlimited mileage
- • Third-party liability insurance
- • CDW (Collision Damage Waiver) with an excess of €650–1,750
- • Free baby / child seat — common among local companies
- • Free Naxos island map
- • 24-hour roadside assistance
- • Air conditioning
- • Free pickup and drop-off at Naxos Airport and Naxos Port
- • Free additional driver — offered by local companies like Enjoy Naxos Car
Not included (costs extra):

Deposit Amounts and Insurance Options
| Insurance Level | Excess | Deposit Hold | Daily Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| CDW only | €650–1,750 | €650–1,000 | Included |
| SCDW | €160–300 | €160–400 | €8.50–16/day |
| Full Coverage (FDW) | €0 | ~€100 fuel deposit | €6.50–35/day |
CDW usually carries the highest excess. SCDW reduces the excess, and full coverage reduces the excess to zero but may still leave a fuel deposit. Hertz, Drivetime Naxos, and AbbyCar use different deposit models, so check supplier terms before payment.
Standard CDW is usually void on unpaved roads. Gravel sections are reported on routes such as Plaka access, the east coast, and Kalantos. Full coverage is the safer option for drivers planning those routes. Read more in our Naxos driving tips.
