Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Sandy Bay?
Travelling around Sandy Bay doesn’t have to drain your savings, with daily car rental prices starting at just AU$73 within the past seven days.
What happens if I need to cancel my Sandy Bay car reservation?
No need to worry. You should get a total refund if you notify us more than six hours prior to the collection time. Your itinerary contains information about this, and so does our Customer Service Portal. Not all reservations will receive a refund though, so you may want to go over your car’s home agreement.
What types of cars can I rent in Sandy Bay?
Not too small and not too big, compact cars are the first choice for many travellers to Sandy Bay. Featuring excellent gas mileage and easy parking and manoeuvrability, they’re ideal for dashing around the city. A compact car is slightly more spacious than an economy vehicle, so you can travel around in a little extra comfort and convenience. Prefer something bigger? Check out our standard, intermediate and full-size options.
Where can I go on a road trip from Sandy Bay?
Book yourself some wheels, collect the keys and get ready to explore all Sandy Bay has to offer. But with tons of places to see in the surrounding areas, don’t let that be the end of the road! Set your sat-nav to some of the other exciting places in the region:

  • You’ll feel the pulse of bustling city life the minute you pull into Launceston. Some 161 kilometres from Sandy Bay, it’s home to loads of excellent places to visit, such as Brisbane Street Mall.
  • Around 72 kilometres away, Derwent Valley Council is another city worth adding to your itinerary. You’ll want to check out Mt. Wellington while you’re there.

The exact surcharge, and which age range it applies to, varies between suppliers. It’s a good idea to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in Sandy Bay?
Before you can hit the road in Sandy Bay, you’ll need a driver’s license and a credit card in the same name.

Requirements may vary, so read the policy terms and conditions before you choose a home company.

Where can I find a Sandy Bay car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether or not you can rent a vehicle if you are under 25 years old in Sandy Bay often depends on the holiday home company you choose.
