Top Tips for Renting a Convertible Car in Charleston

  • Driving a convertible, especially when on vacation, makes a statement of class and style. You can choose from various Charleston convertible car rentals to suit your needs and preferences, ranging from Volkswagen to BMW. Explore the hidden gems of Charleston in your convertible, enjoying the wind in your hair and the incredible views. Drive to the Charleston harbor to see ships and boats of all kinds, or sign up for a Charleston boat tour. Your trip won't be complete without visiting downtown Charleston for shopping and dining.
  • You can find convertible car rentals at Charleston International Airport, even on short notice. However, we recommend booking your convertible at least a day in advance of your trip. Many car companies, such as Alamo, Enterprise, National, and Hertz, will offer you a better deal if you make your reservation ahead of time. Check whether everything in the car is working correctly before leaving the rental car location to avoid any surprise charges at the end of your rental period.
  • A convertible car rental is perfect for cruising through Charleston’s charming southern neighborhoods. You can venture from Hampton Park Terrace on the west side to Harleston Village on the opposite side of the city in comfort, while appreciating the open air. Always stay safe in the driver’s seat by watching out for road signs and abiding by speed limits.
  • We recommend checking online for alerts regarding road repairs and construction that might cause traffic jams within Charleston. Friendly Charleston locals will alert others of traffic jams on social media and local websites. Of course, bad weather and morning and evening rush hours can also cause traffic jams, so be sure to plan your drive time in advance to avoid spending too much time in your convertible car rental sitting in congested traffic.
  • Book your convertible car rental in Charleston at least 2 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • January is typically the cheapest month to rent a convertible car in Charleston, with prices around $68 per day. The most expensive month is August, with average prices of $118 per day.

I ended up getting a car from another company because the line was ridiculously long at Budget- longer than 2 days previously when my friend waited at least an hour to get to the front. There were also people waiting for cars out by the car pick up.

The car was not thoroughly cleaned inside. Crackers, etc. under passenger seat. Seats not thoroughly cleaned. The rental counter was seriously understaffed. One person (and one out for lunch) for 25 waiting people. Person who finally helped us stated, "everyone is always in a hurry." Repeat renters in line stated that it's always like this because the rental is less expensive. I think 25+ minutes in line is unacceptable. People just filling in their hours with no hurry involved.

The staff was friendly but the wait time was ridiculous. I did not get my car on time and paid for an extra day of rental which I shouldn't have been charged for due to getting my car later than I should have.

We waited in line for over 90 minutes to get the car. Staff (2 women doing their best) said there were no cars ready. How is this even possible when there are reservations? There were at least 40 people in line. A few jumped ship @ went to other car rental companies who had no lines. It was all frustrating. Once we did get our car, there appears to be several cars ready.

Not only was I charged over $200 by the third party (QEEQ), but Budget has now charged my card once upon the first day of rental over $200 and now that the rental is over, my card is being charged over $800. There had been no damage to the car and I feel deceived by Budget and the third party booking company,

Luxury SUV

Reserved a luxury SUV (Audi Q5 or equivalent was stated). When I arrived I was given the choice of only two SUV’s, both Ford Expedition Max. The vehicle is the biggest SUV Ford makes…6000lbs, 7 passenger and 20’ long. Not a luxury SUV and a gas guzzler averaging 13 mpg. You need a step ladder to climb into the vehicle. Was not a pleasant experience trying to drive and park that thing around Charleston SC.

our rental car could not be given to us because the car that we returned in Atlanta the day before had not been registered as returned. We had to make a new rental under different name. Luckily Isaac Mattern the manager helped us with the process. The Atlanta Alamo managers were incompetent.

Easy online selection. The car I requested was actually there (unlike other brands on past). The car seats for the kids were ok. A high back booster option would be nice to have for young kids who are bigger than a toddler seat and too small for just a simple booster. Rental price for kids seats is too much for the value. Those booster seats are old and can be bought for 20$ at Walmart, which I will do instead next time. Slow counter service and the line to leave the garage took almost 10 mins. Overall, good value and nice clean vehicle.

I couldn’t rent my car from Hertz. I used AFFIRM via online to get the rental that way. When I went to hertz counter, they wouldn’t rent me the car. Even though, the car was paid for prior to my pick up via AFFIRM. All they needed was a deposit since car was paid for. Nope, wouldn’t let me even use a debit card for that. I have NEVER had issues with Hertz before and I’ve rented cars via AFFIRM, KLARNA or AFTERPAY. I was so embarrassed. Money is tight for people wanting to rent vehicles and those buy here, pay later accommodations really help. I had to spend $600 of my own money to rent a car through AVIS.

Hertz did not have the car we reserved. We were forced to take a smaller car which was unsafe given the number of passengers and the luggage. Hertz did not offer any other options. I would not rent from Hertz again. I have heard many similar stories about the company. It used to be good but no longer.

We rented a van to evacuate from Hurricane Milton. When we arrived at the counter I was told no vans weee available and that my only option was an SUV for an extra $100. Considered we were evacuating from a CAT 5 storm I feel this was very poor customer service. To price gouge my family in a time of need. I won’t do business with Avis again.
