You’ll need to investigate the age policy of the Waterfront holiday home providers you’re considering. If you’re under 25 years of age, be aware that some will charge additional fees.

Can I drive in The Waterfront with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the United States, you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, know that you’ll also have to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. 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 regulations, as well as with the company you’re renting from before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with a rental car. Please read the regulations before you book!
