How old do you have to be to rent a car in Jekyll Island?
The minimum age is 21. But there are several age-related restrictions to be aware of before reserving your wheels in Jekyll Island. If you’re a young motorist, most home outlets will charge an additional fee and limit the types of vehicles you’re able to rent. The surcharge amount, and which ages it applies to, differs between suppliers. It’s a good idea to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in Jekyll Island?
The main things are your driver’s license and a credit card in your name. Most car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of alternative coverage if you opt out. Check with your home provider to avoid any problems.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Jekyll Island?
Yes, and you’ll find your ideal ride on our long-term car rental deals page. Simply enter your trip details and we’ll show you fabulous offers from numerous leading providers.
Where can I find a Jekyll Island car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between holiday home companies, so you’ll have to do a bit of homework. Found a Jekyll Island supplier that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? Great news! Just bear in mind that extra fees often apply to drivers between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each holiday home car you’re considering should have all the information you need.
Can I drive in Jekyll Island with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the U.S, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is required, be aware that you’ll also have to show your current valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the car must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, and with the car rental company before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the U.S, you usually can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your home. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
