KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Great Neck

  • Choosing car rentals in Great Neck over public buses or taxis provides you with the freedom to explore the city much more conveniently. With a rental car, you can easily access sites that might be outside the public-transportation routes. Additionally, you can save the time that you'd otherwise spend waiting for buses or taxis, and instead, optimize your sightseeing experience. While in Great Neck, don't miss the spectacular views at Kings Point Park and Steppingstone Park, both which offer serene waterfront settings and recreational activities--perfect for a day of relaxation and easy-going pleasure.
  • Choosing to pick up a car from the selection of Great Neck car rentals at New York John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) is the right move to ensure you a seamless trip to Great Neck's city center and any other destinations of your choice. A rental car helps you avoid the hassle of navigating public transportation so you can begin your adventure right from the airport. The car-rental agencies are located at Terminal 1, Level 1, and at Terminal 4, Level 1, so you'll have easy access for a quick departure to explore Great Neck and the surrounding region without delays or any inconvenience. Enterprise, Avis, Hertz, and Budget are some of the car-rental agencies with business counters inside the airport.
  • When using car rentals in Great Neck, remember to be aware of the city's driving styles, which can be fast-paced and assertive. While most drivers obey traffic laws, you can expect some occasional aggressive driving and busy traffic during rush hour. Watch out for jaywalkers, especially in urban areas, and always be cautious at pedestrian crossings. Make sure you follow New York State's car-seat laws if you're traveling with children, as safety regulations are strictly enforced. In Great Neck, New York, child-seat regulations require that children under the age of four must be securely fastened in an appropriate child-restraint device when traveling in a motor vehicle. Children ages four to seven must use a booster seat until they reach the height and weight requirements for using an adult seat belt.
  • With car rentals in Great Neck, drivers--especially those who are new to the city--might face considerable challenges navigating the intersection of Middle Neck Road and Northern Boulevard, due to heavy traffic flow and some tricky road configurations. Additionally, rush hour, which occurs from 7 to 9 in the morning and from 4 to 7 in the afternoon, poses a challenge for drivers. Northern Boulevard, Middle Neck Road, and the Long Island Expressway (I-495) are the most affected roads during rush hour.

Cons:

Very disappointed in this rental. Arrived and no car was available despite the fact I had this scheduled for over a month for my honeymoon. Was told I had to travel 10-15 minutes down the road to get another car. Asked what car I wanted, told them. Then when I arrived that car was not available and I was told it had been “wrecked”. Was given another car I didn’t want to drive and it was filthy. I asked them to clean it for me and the car only had about 1 gallon of gas in the tank. Enterprise called me the next day to check on the car and I was told they would switch out the next day but they called, didn’t leave message, and never followed up. By then it was too late for me to get another car because I had to leave for my trip. Very disappointed. Would not rent from these locations again.

I've had success at this Avis location in the past so I tried using them again.

Cons:

The car was not ready (needed vacuumed) when I picked it up. After I left the location as was en route to my destination I noticed this horrible smell and since Windows were open when we did the walk through with car, I didn't notice the horrible smell of smoke. I didn't have time to return car so I had to drive almost 500 miles with this horrible smelling car. I am very disappointed in the service.

I like how close to my home the pick-up/drop-off site was. What could’ve been better was the space allotted to the rental car pick-up/drop-off area. It was very small and congestd.

Cons:

The car wasn't at the location when we arrived. They told us it would be there in 20 minutes. The manager spoke extremely rudely to me, seemingly indignant that I dared to ask a question, when I asked them to explain why there was no car for our scheduled pick up time. Then, no one spoke to us until an hour later, when I asked them where the car was (they still didn't have an answer). They repeatedly tried to pressure me to take a different car, even after I explained that I didn't feel comfortable driving such a vehicle. They offered not a single word or gesture of apology for the inconvenience. The delay caused us to miss some of our plans for the day. Had we had any other option, we would have left the store, but we were stuck. I will never rent from this location again.
