KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Port St. Lucie

  • While Port St. Lucie does have public transportation, the routes are limited, making it a less viable option for exploring the city. What’s more, the city is so well-placed centrally on the eastern coast of Florida, that it invites visitors to explore the surrounding area; essentially, securing a car rental in Port St. Lucie is a great way to take advantage of the opportunities for tourism and adventure available. A personal vehicle will also provide you with the luxury of time flexibility—arrive at your destination when you want, then leave when you want.
  • When heading to Port St. Lucie via plane, you’ll land at Palm Beach International Airport (PBI). Here at the airport, you’ll find a number of available car rental companies, including Hertz, National, Enterprise, Alamo, Budget, Thrifty and more. To find the rental company service desks, go to level one of the terminal and head toward the exit. Here, you will be able to check in for your Port St. Lucie car rental.
  • With a rich aquatic environment and a fun downtown scene, visitors to Port St. Lucie will want to keep alert, especially on the city’s many bridges, and look out for pedestrians that are enjoying neighborhoods replete with shops and restaurants. While there are marked crosswalks, you will find that many people choose to cross at unmarked spots along the roads. Additionally, since there are many waterways running through the city, you’ll find that traffic patterns are focused along a handful of routes.
  • While you are visiting the city, take advantage of the commuting flexibility that a car rental in Port St. Lucie affords you and try to travel outside of the city’s rush hours. During the mornings, you can expect increased traffic between about 7am and about 9am. Toward the end of the workday, traffic increases again between roughly 4pm and 6pm.
  • When getting cheap car rentals in Port St. Lucie, it will be necessary to have personal injury protection and property damage liability insurance, both of which are mandatory in Florida. The most convenient way to get these insurance covers is through the car rental company, which can include the insurance policy in the basic car rental contract. However, if you already have a personal automobile insurance policy, the coverage will extend to your Port St. Lucie car rental. Book your car rental through KAYAK to view the various insurance policy provisions by car rental companies in St. Lucie.
  • When driving your cheap car rentals in Port St. Lucie, you are likely to come across several swale liners that aid in the management of water by directing stormwater. It is important to ensure that you do not drive over the swale liners as they are important in the city’s water management system. Also, be aware of driveway culverts when driving in residential areas as driving over them carelessly can cause them to crack and incur huge losses on the homeowner.
  • When driving cheap car rentals in Port St. Lucie, make sure to use the vehicle’s provided onboard GPS or mobile phone location service to track traffic through the area and plan your commute around times where there is minimal traffic along the road. This is especially the case along the US-1 highway which passes through the city and has some of the busiest intersections in town, such as the Prima Vista Blvd and US-1 intersection. Be consistently aware of your surroundings when passing through intersections on the US-1 highway, and always use your turn signaling to promote safe driving.

FAQs about renting a car in Port St. Lucie

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Port St. Lucie?

    In the sweltering and humid weather of central and southern Florida, it’s a great benefit to have a vehicle with good air conditioning, especially from spring through fall when temperatures are exceedingly high.

These flashing yellow arrows do not replace solid yellow arrows, with red arrows still meaning that the driver cannot make a left turn at the junction.

WKrieger, Jul 2020

KAYAK

Pros:

After arguing with the sales rep, I was given a free upgrade.

Cons:

When I arrived, the car I reserved was not available. I was not happy, and the sales rep was pushy and telling me that I had to pay more for a larger vehicle. I had to argue and get very uncomfortable and insist that they honor the price I was given several times before they finally did the right thing and acquiesced, giving me the free upgrade.

Budget has always been my 1st choice for car rental. The Port St. Lucie and the West Palm beach staff are always friendly and accommodating when renting from their location. Some of the others could take a refresher's course on how to treat people. Again, never any surprises, with the exception of this rental 28-30th Jan 25 as the pick up rental price was different that the drop off, closing out the contract.

2.0 Poor

Anonymous, Apr 2021

KAYAK

Pros:

We liked nothing about the experience. We got to the Budget Office in Port St Lucie and there was no car for us. The woman there insisted we travel an hour south (we were heading north) to hopefully get another car. No guarantees there either. We ended up having to drive 2 hours to Orlando to start all over by reserving another car. Our reservations contract was not honored.

Cons:

Everything? Maybe you could have reserved a car like you said you would?

The staff at Miami and PSL branches were very helpful and accommodating. I had some trouble returning the car due to some confusing signage, but they went out of their way to stay late and support me so that I could drop the car off after hours. I really appreciate it!

After making a reservation a few days earlier, they called me the night before and told me they didn't have what I had requested. After agreeing to accept something else, I showed up only to find that they in fact had NO cars available. I will never do business with Enterprise again!!!

There could have been an actual car to drive away in. What’s the point of making a reservation if you show up and don’t have a car reserved for you?

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

I guess the staff could of been a lot friendlier but they weren’t. Also if they are one of those business that opens after hours that’s good however they literally LIED on there website saying I open after hours and when I ask the manager he said they closed even though I made a reservation stupid business stupid people

Richard, Aug 2020

KAYAK

Pros:

STAFF WAS VERY ABRUPT WHEN I ARRIVED AND TOLD ME THAT THERE WERE NO CARS AVAILABLE. NO EXPLANATION, NO PHONE CALL, NOTHING. MY VEHICLE WAS NOT AVAILABLE AND THAT WAS THAT! NOT TO MENTION, THAT THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME THAT I HAD A CONFIRMED RESERVATION AT THIS LOCATION AND NOBODY CALLED TO TELL ME NOT TO SHOW UP. IT RUINED MY ENTIRE VACATION PLANS WITH MY GRANDCHILDREN. TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. BEWARE OF THIS LOCATION.

Cons:

FIRST OF ALL, MAKE AN EFFORT TO GET THE VEHICLE IN POSITION WHEN SOME ONE HAS A CONFORMED RESERVATION. IF THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE, THEN CALL THE RENTER AND TELL THEM SO OTHER ARRANGEMENTS CAN BE MADE. A BETTER ATTITUDE COULD ALSO HELP.
