Top Tips for Renting a Van in Destin

  • One of the main reasons travelers book Destin van rentals while moving around Destin and Florida is to explore popular attractions like any of the 13 beach access locations with friends and family. With Destin van rentals, you can drive along the beaches on the Gulf of Mexico and the Destin Harbor Boardwalk. For travelers who love nature trails and scenic routes, the dunes of Henderson Beach State Park in the south which has pine and oak trees dotting the coastline and sheltering wildlife is a great place to drive Destin van rentals. If you want to visit Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park with the kids, consider booking Destin van rentals.
  • Destin, Fort Walton Beach Airport (VPS) is one of the major airports in Destin that travelers fly into. Booking Destin van rentals before arrival at VPS is convenient because you can pick up your van rentals immediately after taking your luggage and picking up your keys and contract from the specific car rental desk at the airport. You can book a van rental from rental companies like Hertz and Enterprise at VPS at affordable rates.
  • Driving in Destin is easy because the roads are well marked, and traffic rules are enforced. Golf carts and low-speed vehicles are a common site on the roads but aren’t allowed on highways so watch out for them while driving Destin can rentals. When driving your van, if you see police lights and a vehicle pulled over on the side of the road, move over to the next lane or slow down to around 20 mph as you pass by.
  • If it’s your first time in Destin, have no worries because it’s easy to get to popular locations on the major highways. The major roads include US Route 98 which is the main route between the mainland city and Miracle Strip Parkway and connects Fort Walton Beach to Panama City and Pensacola, Florida State Road 85, and Florida State Road 189 that both link Fort Walton Beach Airport to downtown.
  • Book your van rental in Destin at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

FAQs About Renting a Van in Destin

  • What are the best car rental locations in Destin to rent vans?

    Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport (VPS) is one of the most popular rental locations in Destin because it’s accessible to both locals and international travelers. The advantage of booking Destin van rentals from this location is that the rental desks of the rental companies are onsite preventing any time wastage in transfer shuttles. If you don’t have a preferred rental company, you can explore the van rentals offered by Hertz, Enterprise, and National to pick a fitting vehicle for your needs.

  • What are the most reliable van brands to rent in Destin?

    Because of the nature of the roads in Destin and the numerous beaches, the most popular van brands are Chevrolet Silverado Ext Cab and the Dodge Grand Caravan. Both vehicles have adequate seating space if you’re traveling with friends and family. They are convenient when traveling in any weather because they have powerful engines, large fuel tanks, and plenty of free space that can serve as a cabin. These vans also provide comfort because of the free-folding seats that can be used to rest as you camp out along the Gulf of Mexico or to free up the cabin space for bulk cargo.

  • Where are the best places to park a van in Destin?

    Due to the large size of Destin van rentals, it’s advisable to park in parking lots that have large parking spaces and to avoid parking on sidewalks, bike lanes, and near streets. Metered parking in Destin cost around $5 per day in parking lots on Zerbe Street and Marler Street in Destin Harbor District. Parking spaces in beach parking areas in Destin cost around $5 for five hours.

I didn't like anything. You guys should be ashamed. A death in the family prevented us from taking our trip....not that anyone in your organization cares. Phone numbers provided went unanswered when dialed...then disconnected. You're only mandate appears to be making money at the expense of customers and making sure they get a total runaround when trying to salvage a horrific personal tragedy. Way to go Kayak. You made a couple hundred bucks on this one and you didn't even have to provide a service...way to go! I shall never use Kayak, or Hertz again for anything, and neither will my large extended family. I will implore as many people as I can influence not to use you.

Vehicle was nice and clean and there weren’t any issues with the billing. The only complaint is when we got to the pickup location the office was locked and there was a sign stating they had to leave to assist another customer. I get that happens but we waited for over an hour along with several other customers. It was kind of a pain getting to the rental location from the airport but considering it was 1/3 of the price I would do it again.

Enterprise booked my reservation for noon on October 5. Their branch closed at noon. When I called at 11:45 to let them know that I would be a few minutes late as taking our luggage took longer than anticipated, they told me to try to switch my reservation to a different enterprise branch without making any calls for me or helping in any way. I contacted another branch who let me know that they were completely out of cars and wouldn’t be able to accommodate me. When I called back to the branch that I originally booked with around 12:05, I was greeted by an automated voicemail that told me that the branch was closed and to call back during normal business hours. I called back as soon as the branch opened the next day, and they let me know that they had cancelled my original reservation and that they wouldn’t be able to honor my initial rate. Very frustrating experience that left my family without a rental for > 24 hours and cost us a fortune in Ubers.

The staff was very nice and tried to be accommodating. The first problem we encountered was the location was not at the airport where we thought it was. We had to take a long taxi ride for six of us to the second enterprise location, of course we had to pay for that. I traveled with my three daughters, my wife and my mother-in-law. We had a lot of luggage for our 10 day trip to Florida.. When we got there, we were told the minivan that we reserved was not available and they wanted to upgrade us into an SUV. That was not acceptable because it didn’t have the storage space for our luggage that the minivan would have. But we had no other option so we fit in the back as Much as we could and each family member had their carry on bag in their lap. The vehicle was not cleaned very well and the tank was empty.

Pros:

Check in person was friendly.

Cons:

Location is Far from airport. No taxis or ubers available to get there. Expensive to get to rental location. Took a long time for Enterprise to get my car once I finally found a way there. Smelled smoky, finally found a Used Cigarette on the floor in back seat. Overall not a good experience.

Disappointing. The car broke down on the side of the highway 3.5 hours into a 14 hour drive. The roadside assistance department couldn’t come up with a solution any sooner than 6 hours of waiting on the roadside. I self-rescued and after securing a refund, Avis customer service did nothing to make up for the fact that their primary charter of renting a safe reliable car failed and had no compassion or interest in making up for the inconvenience and delays.

Pros:

We asked specifically for a car that seated 8 and we got a car that seated 7. There were no cars that seated 8 so someone had to ride illegally and unsafe the entire trip.

Cons:

The lady that helped at Pickup was not helpful on instructing drop off after hours. The car stunk. And giving people the amount of seating they request is pretty vital.

Our car's lift gate was not working properly. It would open and then shut. We were not going to ruin our vacation by taking it back to Budget to let them take time out of our vacation to fix. Thankful someone did not get hurt. Car needed to be checked over before releasing it to customers.

Pros:

It was quick. The drop off was easy.

Cons:

The Budget rep forced me to “upgrade” at the ticket counter since I was dropping the car in another location. (That was known when I placed the reservation.) She tried to get us to pay more for car I reserved or more for an upgraded car. I declined. She then said I had to pay for XM radio at $6 per day or the car I reserved couldn’t leave the lot. I was tired from traveling so we just swallowed it. When we got to the car, it had been smoked in, damaged on the body, and had 56k miles at the start.

Passenger van

I had a reservation for a 15 passenger van for a bachelorette trip on September 5th-9th at your VPS airport location. When we arrived we were given keys to a minivan not realizing until we went to the vehicle that it was not what we originally reserved. We went back to speak with your representative and was told that the van we reserved was in maintenance and was not available. The representative did offer to void our reservation but left 10 people with their luggage stranded without offering another vehicle or maybe offering 2 vehicles for us to be able to continue our trip. We had to scramble to find new transportation and it put a damper on the start of our trip. It was a horrible experience with your company. We ended up having to pay double the money with another company in order to proceed. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND

Dollar did fine except when I rented the vehicle (large, 8-passenger van) I attempted to add drivers, but the rental clerk (very busy!) said it was not possible. Something about not on my original rental request. That caused me personal problems during the week. The vehicle I got was clean and comfortable, and had pretty decent leg space for my passengers.
