Several reviews describe the rental prices as cheap or competitive, which is the main attraction for budget-conscious renters.
One customer praised the range from economy models to supercars and chose an immaculate Audi TT.
Some customers found the booking and rental process quick, simple and convenient.
A review described the car delivery and collection service as excellent, making handover convenient for some renters.
A positive review said the cars were in excellent condition and had modern features, though other reviews report poorer vehicle condition.
Get Proof. Ask for written confirmation and a transaction receipt for the deposit refund; one reviewer was told reverse transactions needed no receipt.
Document Handover. Photograph the car, its condition and the handover area before taking possession, especially after a report of pre-handover parking fines.
Check Fines. Verify any traffic-violation amount independently through the Dubai Police website before paying the rental company.
Read Contract. If you smoke, check the contract for penalties before accepting the car; one customer reported a 250 riyal fine that was not explained at delivery.
Plan Cashflow. Do not rely on a quick deposit release: reviews describe promised 30-day refunds taking two months or more.
Escalate Quickly. If the refund stalls, keep your paperwork and consider a formal consumer complaint; one reviewer received the money within two days after reporting it.

The Bottom Line
Arizona Rent a Car in Al Barsha appeals mainly through low prices and a broad stated focus on exotic sports and luxury cars. Reviews mention everything from economy models to supercars, with one customer choosing an immaculate Audi TT. Some renters also found the process quick and simple, and praised delivery and collection or pick-up and drop-off arrangements.
The central issue is the security deposit or insurance refund. Many customers say they were promised a return after about 30 days, then waited a month, two months, or longer. Complaints include changing explanations about reference numbers and reverse transactions, missing receipts, partial refunds, and deductions linked to fines, Salik, bank charges or alleged scratches.
One reviewer received two parking violations before taking possession of the car; another said the vehicle was broken and poorly maintained. The positive experiences are real but sit alongside a much larger pattern of refund complaints. If you still consider booking, read the contract carefully, ask exactly how the deposit will be returned, and get written proof.
Photograph the car and handover area, verify any fine through Dubai Police, and keep all records. For a smoker, check the contract for the reported 250 riyal penalty. Treat the advertised low rate as only part of the total financial risk.
