Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Central Coast California car reservation?
Good news! You should get a complete refund if you let us know a minimum of six hours before collecting the car. Your itinerary contains information about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid reservations result in a refund though, so you may want to check your car’s cancellation policy.
What types of cars can I rent in Central Coast California?
Full-size rides, compact cars, powerful SUVs … Pick up the keys to whatever you prefer! Economy is the top rental car category in Central Coast California. Small, with good mileage and a piece of cake to park, these rides make exploring bustling city streets enjoyable. Maybe the best part? They’re easy on the budget. That means you’ll have more cash to splash on other things, like touring as much of this awesome destination as possible.
How do I find the best car rental deals in Central Coast California with Expedia?
Finding an amazing deal on your Central Coast California rental car is a cinch with Expedia. Choose your preferred ride, add in a few more details and compare prices across big-name brands. Why not add flights and hotels to your booking? You’ll get access to even more savings when you create a vacation package.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Central Coast California?
Drivers 21 and above can road trip around Central Coast California in a rental car. If you’re a young renter, a daily surcharge applies. You’ll usually have fewer car categories to choose from, such as compact and mid-size, and may also be required to purchase inclusive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to find out if any extra fees or restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Central Coast California?
Be prepared to present a valid driver’s license and a credit card at the rental counter. Prior to pickup, check with your rental provider whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to show proof of insurance.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Central Coast California?
You can. Expedia partners with trusted providers that offer long-term rentals for all car types. Check out our long-term car rental deals and discover every corner of Central Coast California — or far beyond!
Where can I find a Central Coast California car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the rental car companies located in Central Coast California. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you’ve found a supplier that does cater to drivers under the age of 25 take note that additional fees may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before collecting the vehicle.
