Be aware of the additional port access charge added. Also there are two budget locations close to each other. Double check you are at the one you intend.
Verified travelerJan 2024
The facility is not large, but the staff were incredibly polite and did their best to accommodate the ebb and flow of reservations. Suggest either not trying to rent a car when the cruise ships all arrive or being very patient.

KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Cape Canaveral

  • Car rentals in Cape Canaveral are one of the most flexible methods of transport for travelers who wish to transverse various parts of Cape Canaveral with minimal disturbance. Compared to using public transportation means, like the Space Coast Area Transit, which serves specific routes and follows a fixed schedule, using a rental car gives you a lot of freedom when making choices concerning where to visit. Some of the areas you should consider visiting in Cape Canaveral using your rental car include Jetty Park Beach & Pier and U.S. Air Force Space & Missile Museum.
  • Travelers booking Cape Canaveral car rentals will have many pick-up/drop-off locations in the city. Avis and Thrifty typically operate in Aric by the Sea neighborhood, while Budget car rental is right in the city center. If you're around Port Canaveral, look no further than Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Alamo, SunnyCars, and Payless – they offer convenient transfers (one-way trips) to the cruise terminals. Most non-airport locations provide free pick-up services, but you must call beforehand to make such arrangements during normal business hours. A rental representative will bring your paperwork so you can sign it and hit the road right away.
  • Melbourne Airport (MLB) is the most suitable airport for travelers arriving in Cape Canaveral using flights. Several Cape Canaveral car rentals in Cape Canaveral are available to travelers from Melbourne Airport. Examples of car rentals that guarantee travelers from Melbourne Airport quality and affordable services are the Budget Car & Truck Rental Melbourne Airport and Hertz Car Rental Melbourne Airport car rental agencies. These Cape Canaveral car rentals have on-site offices at MLB Airport near the Arrivals area .
  • You don't need to be afraid to rent an electric car in Cape Canaveral since many public charging stations are available, some of which are free of charge. The city center offers four charging points: Two Electric Vehicle charging outlets at Cape Canaveral Public Works Department and Banana River Park; and two Tesla destination chargers at the Radisson Resort at the Port and the Residence Inn by Marriott-Cape Canaveral/Cocoa Beach. When driving an EV through Avon by the Sea, look for a Tesla Destination Charger at Cocoa Beach Pier Arch.
  • The good condition of most roads in Cape Canaveral should not distract you from being careful when driving through Cape Canaveral. Being one of the major tourist attraction regions in Florida, Cape Canaveral’s roads have been maintained to enable travelers to smoothly transverse the region. Drivers using car rentals in Cape Canaveral need to be keen when driving through the city because there are many pedestrians and cyclists using Cape Canaveral roads. Travelers using Cape Canaveral car rentals should pay closer attention to all the road signs when driving in Cape Canaveral.
  • You can use a rented car to travel along the Bee Line Expressway to adjacent cities like Orlando and Lakeland. Consider cheap car rentals in Cape Canaveral supporting the Toll-By-Plate payment system because there will be tolls to pay down the road, e.g., at the Exit to Dallas Blvd. Toll charges will be applied to the credit card you used to reserve the vehicle. Some toll plazas on the highway are dedicated to the SunPass collection technique, which doesn't require you to stop at the booth. Use specific lanes designed for cash collection if you want to pay with cash.
  • The good condition nature of most roads in Cape Canaveral makes it easier for travelers using car rentals in Cape Canaveral to navigate through the city with a lot of ease. However, major difficulties can be experienced in the morning, lunch, and evening hours. From around 6 am to 9 am, many people are rushing to work using both personal and PSVs, causing traffic congestion on major roads. From around 12 noon to 2 pm, there is traffic congestion on major roads in Cape Canaveral as workers rush for lunch and lastly, 4 pm to 6 pm are the evening rush hours when workers are rushing home from their jobs. During these times, expect to encounter difficulties when driving your rental car in Cape Canaveral.

Despite being a cheaper option, renting an economy car allows you to easily squeeze in parking spaces, especially in scenarios where there are limited spaces.

  • What are the child car seat rules in Cape Canaveral?

    Ensure your little ones are restrained in a car seat when driving a rental car in Cape Canaveral. Rear-facing car seats are recommended for infants and toddlers under three. Forward-facing car seats are suitable for children between the ages of four and five.

  • What is the speed limit in Cape Canaveral?

    When using car rentals on Cape Canaveral roads, it is important to observe all the applicable speed limits if you wish to remain on the safe side of the law. Different road connections have different speed limits that should be strictly adhered to. For instance, travelers are encouraged to maintain a speed limit of 45 mph when driving on State Road 528 to SR A1A near Port Canaveral. When driving on the stretch between State Road 520 and Minutemen Causeway, along Cocoa Beach, you are advised to maintain a speed limit of 35 mph. When driving South of Cocoa Beach and Satellite Beach, ensure that you maintain a speed limit of 55 mph.

  • Which road trips can I take from Cape Canaveral?

    There's a lot to do in Cape Canaveral, but you should consider seeing the neighboring regions. A 75-mile drive to Daytona Beach, popular with car races at the Daytona International Speedway, is worthwhile. Take advantage of cheap car rentals in Cape Canaveral to drive about 2h 30min to West Palm Beach for endless entertainment at Rosemary Square or see the world's big cats at Panther Ridge Conservation Center.

  • Where are the best places to park in Cape Canaveral?

    For affordable parking in Cape Canaveral, consider reserving your parking space at Cruise Time Parking. This is one of the most affordable parking places in Cape Canaveral, charging approximately $8 per day for pre-booked parking. This parking space offers free parking services to shuttles. Unfortunately, the facility can only accommodate up to 4 cruisers in its free space.

Everything went smoothly, but long wait times, which can only be expected coming off a cruise. At least they had 4 people working the counter as opposed to 1 or 2 at many other rental places!

The vehicle and pick up were good. Shuttle service was very efficient to the port. However, a $9.99 port access fee was added to the bill. This was not parking the price that was booked originally.

Pick up was a nightmare. Took over 90 minutes to line up and get a car. Took the Budget shuttle from the cruise port. It identified only as Budget and the driver didn't advise that there are 2 locations. Of course I was at the wrong location. Paid an additional fee so I could get a car after the longest wait. The guy behind the counter wanted me to buy the toll pass for $13 per day. Said there was no option of paying if I didn't have exact change and it would cost me $10 to $15 to get to Orlando from Port Canaveral, it cost me no more than $10 and each toll had a person that was there to give change. The toll from Disney to the airport $2.75. It would have cost an additional $70 had we bought the "toll plan" as recommended. If I spent $15, it would surprise me. Drop off was a breeze. Took all of 2 minutes and the interaction was pleasant

It was extremely busy however every person on line was “priority@ except me. So every time they called someone new it was “priority”. I ended up getting passed by a lot of people and waiting for longer than I felt necessary for my car. So that felt like an insult because I am not priority because I never travel because I am a teacher. So how about we start prioritizing teachers and stop prioritizing business people. Thanks

The worst experience I have ever had with a rental car. Long wait time to get car, charged for a car seat when I didn’t have one. Then to top it off the vehicle was infested with German roaches. Spent hours inspecting our luggage’s and throwing away belongings that were infested with the roaches.
