Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Sarasota car reservation?
Good news! You should receive a complete refund if you advise us more than six hours before the arranged pickup time. Your itinerary contains details about this, and so does our Customer Service Portal. Not all bookings result in a refund though, so you may want to scan your car's rental agreement.
What types of cars can I rent in Sarasota?
Bustling city streets and cramped parking spaces are no bother for an economy car — the most commonly booked type of rental in Sarasota. Slide behind the wheel of one of these and negotiate traffic easily. Affordable, reliable and good on gas, these small cars pack plenty of punch. But Sarasota can be explored in almost any sort of rental you like. Compact, full-size and premium vehicles are among your options.
Where can I go on a road trip from Sarasota?
Sarasota has plenty to keep you busy, but don't restrict yourself to one place. Pick up a set of wheels and hit the road to discover what else awaits in the surrounding area. Here are some places to consider:

  • Puerto Plata is around 161 kilometres from Sarasota. Famous sights like Playa Dorada should be high on your list here.
  • Why not enjoy the wonders of Punta Cana too? Top sights here include Bavaro Beach. Punta Cana is roughly 161 kilometres from Sarasota.
  • Get into the outdoors and breathe in some fresh air at La Ensenada Beach. You'll find it about 209 kilometres from Sarasota.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Sarasota?
If you're 21 and over, you can rent a vehicle in Sarasota. Take into account that rental providers will charge young drivers an extra fee, which helps cover the higher damage risk involved. Also, young drivers often aren't permitted to rent luxury or specialty vehicles. Carefully read the terms and conditions before booking so there are no surprises at the rental counter.
What do you need to rent a car in Sarasota?
While terms and conditions may differ between rental car outlets, the two main things you'll need are a current driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. You don't need to take out auto insurance with your rental provider. However, proof of alternative coverage may be necessary.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Sarasota?
Yes. We partner with reputable companies that offer weekly and monthly rentals for many car classes. Head to our long-term car rental deals and discover every turn of Sarasota — or beyond!
Where can I find a Sarasota car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the car rental companies operating in Sarasota. They often have different age policies. If you've found an outlet that does cater to drivers under 25, be aware that extra costs may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before collecting the vehicle.
