May 2021
Pros:
Staff----very good and quick. Simplicity in renting, especially since I had not placed a reservation.Cons:
Drop off a bit complicated at the Sanford airport. Went in circles until I figured out what to do.8.0 Excellent
Mar 2021
Cons:
We got a warning to change oil. We called and no one seemed to care. It was quite aggravating and time consuming.4.8 Okay
Nov 2020
Cons:
I rented a medium size car and Alamo gave me a compact, much smaller than I paid for. On top of that the attendant insisted in me taking road assistance which cost me another $100. It was a rip off. You can tell they are mad cause people refuse their insurance which is $40 per day and the other add one they desperately want us to accept so the rental fee doubles in price.8.0 Excellent
Sep 2020
Pros:
Car was clean and ready to go pretty quickly.Cons:
The USB port didn't work!!! So I couldn't use it to charge and run my iPhone for directions. This could have been disastrous if I had a longer trip to get to my GPS destination.10.0 Excellent
Mar 2020
Pros:
Rented a small car and was given a full size suv Ford Flex for the same price. Loved the upgrades roomCons:

May 2021
Pros:
First time w dollar. No one told us about a $100 "cleaning fee" . Never got that from hertz, alamo, national or enterprise or any other rental service. I would have had it cleaned. Also, why was I charged airport taxes when I did not fly in or out. Now I am on hold for 18 minutes waiting to address these unexpected charges.Cons:
Sneaky, they hit me with several unexpected charges after the return which I have never had an issue with when renting from any other company. $100 cleaning fee? Needed some vacuuming otherwise the vehicle was the same returned as picked up. You may spend hours on the phone before any answer when you call to ask why a non flyer was charged airport taxes. Take the time at the counter to get a final cost BUYER BEWARE!2.0 Mediocre
Apr 2021
Cons:
Carrentals.com hacked into this transaction, gave me a reservation to the wrong airport, did not make a reservation with Dollar car rental and refused to refund my money. I'm forced to go through my bank to FORCE A REFUND. I WILL NEVER USE KAYAK again10.0 Excellent
Mar 2021
Pros:
The car was great, we didn’t need anything special. It was a great price, good on gas, smooth driving, and the process of pick up/drop off was an ease.Cons:
I would go over any current dents/aesthetic damages already on the car prior to the renters taking the car off the lot.8.0 Excellent

Dec 2017
Pros:

I was offered a different car and the seats were not conforming to people who are short,therefore my neck and back developed cramps. I drove with these cramps during the whole1200 mile journey. It was very inconvenient for me and my passenger since we had the same build. I thought I would get the Ford, instead I was given a different car. Diana King 5 foot 1 inch4.4 Okay

Nov 2020
Pros:
Nothing, had to cancelCons:
Got to the rental place, their card chip reader wasn't working so we had to swipe. My husband's mag strip was worn so it wasn't working. The woman at the counter informed us she couldn't type the card manually. As we share the same bank account, we asked to use my card and were unable to due to it being in his name. We were then advised to call and straighten it out with priceline. So we tried numerous times to call price line only to get an auto recording telling us about our rental details, no option for a rep. We decided to use the chat feature to get help. First person seemed like she did not want to help, gave multiple bits of incorrect info, and then lied and said she couldn't contact the rental company to confirm our refund for up to 10 business days because they're closed. We were literally standing in the office she claimed wasn't opened. The next rep said we need to call their number, and gave us the recorded line again. The last rep FINALLY was able to get us a refund but either way we were left without a rental vehicle and had to find another method of transportation because the company also advised they need a minimum of 24 hours notice to rent a car. It was the absolute worst experience I've ever had. I will never use a third party site again, this was beyond words.8.0 Excellent
Oct 2020

Pros:
Staff friendly and helpful.Cons:
Only two vehicles to choose from in class we reserved. Since we needed luggage space over comfort we chose the Rav 4 which smelled like a cigar smoker had it last and there was a small burn hole in the driver’s seat. We are not smokers and we’re disappointed.4.0 Okay

Top tips for hiring a car in Daytona Beach
- Car rentals in Daytona Beach make traveling to most of the city’s attractions a breeze, whether you’re headed to the famous Daytona International Speedway or the Daytona Boardwalk Amusements. Opting for a rental car can also make it easy to go to nearby cities and attractions, such as the Washington Oaks Gardens State Park, which is about 35 miles away. You can also visit the charming city of St. Augustine, which can be reached by car in just over 1h.
- To find the car rental center at Daytona Beach International Airport, head to the first level of the main terminal. You will see the different company desks placed directly across from the baggage claim area. As the center is placed directly within the airport, there is no need to exit the building or take a shuttle. There are quite a few different Daytona Beach car rental companies present, including options like Avis, Hertz, and Thrifty.
- Due to its beautiful weather and location along the coast, Daytona Beach has many pedestrians and cyclists, so make sure to be on the lookout for them when you are driving throughout the city. When the city is particularly busy, pedestrians also have a tendency of jaywalking, so be careful when you’re behind the wheel in popular neighborhoods like downtown. It is also common for locals to drive golf carts, which can sometimes be more difficult to see than normal vehicles, so remaining vigilant is important.
- Highways 1 and 95 are the main roads that go in and out of Daytona Beach, so they tend to become congested during rush hour due to residents commuting to and from work. If you’d like to avoid getting stuck in a traffic jam, try to not drive on these highways in the late evening or early morning. These roads become particularly busy during summer months, as this is when visitors from the surrounding areas flock to the city for vacation and time by the beach.
- Book your rental car in Daytona Beach at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Intermediate rental cars in Daytona Beach are around 29% cheaper than other car types, on average
