Quick and smooth experience; their counter is right in front in the arrivals hall at Larnaca.
Staff was very friendly and spoke with a smile. Asked me for the required documents and credit card. They offered me an upgrade which I politely declined. They also offered the extra insurance but I already had one so I declined that as well. The whole transaction was done in about 10 mins.
They mention very clearly at the time of booking regarding the need for a credit card and the excess amount they are going to block - this is standard practice at most rentals. Many bad reviews seem to be from folks who have not read the terms in detail when booking.
Drop-off was pretty smooth too. A quick check of the fuel and a walk around the car - again done in hardly 3 mins. The excess amount blocked was reversed within a week to my credit card.
Kudos guys, keep it up!

I have had really incredible experiences each time with Sixt. The staff are very friendly - and I am so grateful to the lovely Cypriot woman who sits at the front of the desk in the airport on the left. I am really impressed by their service, as they try their best to accommodate specific needs.

We rented a vehicle for 14 days and had no problems at all. The lady at the start was friendly,efficient and helpful with advice. The pick up was smooth and efficient as well. Unfortunately on the way back to the airport to depart we had a flat tyre which I changed. Once the car was returned they inspected the tyre and as it wasn’t damaged they said all ok.
Great service from Anthony at returning area.
Thanks a lot to the Sixt team.
