KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Gulfport
- If your next vacation trip is to head over to Gulfport, you might want to rent a car and stop at a few famous attraction sites. Gulf Islands Waterpark is located on Interstate 49 and London Road, 11min away from the Biloxi Regional Airport. Or you can take a Gulfport nature tour of the Mississippi Sandhills Crane Wildlife Refuge, which is only a half-hour drive from the airport. Don’t forget shopping at Gulfport premium shopping outlets or a boat ride at the beautiful Marina. There are many transport options you can choose to get to all these destinations around the city. Buses and taxis are adequate options, but most buses adhere to specific routes and taxi prices are fixed, making public transportation not so cost-effective if you want to explore outside the city center. Car rentals in Gulfport will give you the flexibility to visit whichever place you want conveniently.
- The Biloxi Regional Airport is the main airport in Gulfport, providing domestic and regional air transport services. There are about 10 car rental companies at the airport, including Ace, Avis, Budget, Dollar, Enterprise, Hertz, National, and U-Save. Some of these Gulfport car rentals have pick-up services from the exit terminal to their rental offices, such as Avis, Budget, Dollar, Enterprise, and Hertz.
- Being a tourist city, Gulfport experiences high traffic congestion on some of its highways. This is more common during the high peak holiday seasons. The city also experiences varying temperatures, especially during the winter nights. When driving on Gulfport roadways at night, you might experience ice on bridges and overpasses as they tend to refreeze when the temperature drops. We recommend that you use caution in such circumstances. Also, watch out for jaywalking pedestrians and bicyclists.
- There are certain hours in Gulfport where traffic is heavy on roadways. The rush hour is typically between 6:30am-9am Monday through Friday, beginning again around 4pm-5:30pm. However, the busiest roads are located or interconnected to Interstate 51, including Creosote Road, Orange Grove, Courthouse, and Pass Road. If you’re on a schedule or you’re trying to catch a flight, keep these times in mind when planning your route.

Sep 2020
Pros:
Staff was very friendly but certainly understaffed. I was contacted 8 hours prior to picking up that the lot I was supposed to pick up from would be closed and to pick up at the airport. Once at the airport I was told they had no cars. After about one hour, we got a car. Staff was good and not her fault. The original pick up area over promised and should have called sooner.6.0 Okay

The manager doesn't care if you get your car no matter the circumstances. She made it clear my problem ( and I was a paying customer) was not her problem. I left in tears.Avis

Sep 2019
Pros:
Gas mileage was good and that’s about all! Didn’t break down and that’s a miracle. Your agent in Asheville was comoetent and corrected my bill but you have not set up scanning services in Asheville causing customers to walk afditional yards into the terminal when they are not catching flight.Cons:
car smelled like floral sprayed cigarette smoke. brakes grabbed and sounded like I was running over ridged pavement. Avis wasn’t available and sign directed me to Budget (extra walking)who had trainee who majorly overcharged me without explanation. car licensed in NJ and I drive car half-way back for you and got major drop fee?(poor value)Alamo
