There are two types of insurances that are relevant I believe, and here is my understanding of them: Collision Damage Waiver (CDW), also called Loss Damage Waiver (LDW): This covers the actual car I rent for damage or theft. If I decline it, I'm responsible, or at least responsible for a large ...
1. Re: Do you buy rental car optional insurance in Aruba? 5 years ago. The rentals come with liability coverage. Amex offers collision coverage if you book your rental on the card. You should check your Geico policy but I highly doubt it covers to Rentals in aruba. When I rented, i used my Amex so I didn’t purchase additional coverage.
Sorry but any liability insurance carried by the car rental company DOES NOT cover the renter. If renter elects not to purchase the optional Liability coverage from the car rental company the renter is personally liable for any claims made by a third party as a result of an accident the renter cause while driving a rental car.
Rental car coverage: Most car insurance policies (with comprehensive and collision coverage) extend to rental cars during repairs, but check your policy for details.

The rental car companies will have that on their cars to get them registered to begin with. But it will be the bare minimum. Then you have collision coverage for accidents as well as comprehensive for damage when you are not in the rental, (fire and theft, etc). You might consider, just using Uber.
It usually covers some damage to the rental vehicle and may compensate the rental company for time the vehicle is out of rental service due to an accident. There may be some additional little coverages, but the gist of what's covered is damage. Amex may have some extra insurance packages available for additional fees.
