Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Hokitika Airport (HKK)?
Hertz and Europcar are just a short drive from Hokitika Airport (HKK). After landing, it won't be long before you're hitting the open road.
What happens if I need to cancel my South Beach car reservation?
There are always times when plans change. That's why we give a full refund on most prepaid bookings if cancelled a minimum of six hours prior to pickup. Remember to double-check your rental agreement — there are some cases where it's not offered. Can't find the details there? Our Customer Service Portal has more useful information.
What types of cars can I rent in South Beach?
Reasonably priced, a cinch to handle and with excellent mileage, it's no wonder compact vehicles are the most commonly booked rental category in South Beach. Tour this city in one of these and you'll be able to park in tight spaces and easily manoeuvre busy streets. A compact is perfect for city breaks or shorter road trips. But they're not your only choice. Go even smaller with an economy model or bigger with an intermediate, a full-size or premium — the choice is all yours!
Where can I go on a road trip from South Beach?
There's loads to do in South Beach, but venture further afield and you'll find more sightseeing magic. Book a set of wheels and you can discover the greater area at your own speed. Add these fantastic places to your to-do list:

  • Christchurch is around 161 kilometres from South Beach. Well-known sights like Lyttelton Harbour should be high on your list here.
  • Approximately 161 kilometres away, Ashburton is also a hit with wanderers. Set aside time to take in Ashburton Domain while you're in town. It's one of the reasons people love staying a while in this colourful city.
  • Visit Mount Victoria Lookout to rediscover nature. Take a picnic to enjoy or just relax and unwind. From South Beach, it's roughly 322 kilometres away.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in South Beach?
If you're 21 and over, you can rent a vehicle in South Beach. Take into account that rental companies will charge an extra fee if you're a young driver, which helps cover the higher damage risk involved. Also, young drivers often aren't permitted to rent luxury cars or larger vehicles. Take note of the terms and conditions before booking to avoid any surprises when you collect the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in South Beach?
Any rental company you select will require two things — a current driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you decide to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to collect your car.
What side of the road do you drive on in South Beach?
In South Beach and across New Zealand, you'll need to drive on the left side of the road. This alone can be daunting, but the steering wheel and other controls are also on the opposite side to the U.S. To stay safe, take things slow at first and allow extra time to reach your destination.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in South Beach?
You can rent a vehicle for a month or even longer in South Beach, so go on and extend your well-deserved holiday! Just enter your trip information into our long-term car rental deals page and secure your perfect ride.
Where can I find a South Beach car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental companies, so you'll have to do a little shopping around. Managed to find a South Beach supplier that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Awesome! Just keep in mind that a surcharge often applies to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're interested in should have all the details you need.
