KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Virginia Beach

  • Ditch the crowded public transportation and jump into a rental car, which is the most comfortable way to explore both Virginia Beach and its surrounding areas. A car will allow you to freely explore the coastal area and some of the city's best parks, such as First Landing State Park and Neptune's Park. Drive your rental car to nearby Norfolk to see the USS Wisconsin, plus the city of Richmond is only 45 minutes away.
  • All the major car rental companies can be found at Norfolk International Airport (ORF), which is approximately 30 minutes away from Virginia Beach. The car rental desks are located in the Arrivals Hall, which is on the Level 1 of the terminal. Many counters operate from early in the day (4:30 a.m.) until late at night (1 a.m.). Vehicle pickup is on Level G, and rental car return is on Level 2.
  • Virginia Beach is pretty straightforward to navigate, and the best time to visit (weather-wise) is from June to August. That's also peak season, however, so be prepared to find lots of tourists and generally more people on the roads. Two-way traffic must also keep to its side of the road, as a general rule. Drinking driving laws are strict, with the maximum blood alcohol limit being 0.08.
  • Morning rush hour usually takes place between 6 a.m. and 9 a.m., and evening rush hour happens between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. The evening peak hour may start slightly earlier around the shipyard and naval base as workers get off around 3:30 p.m. The Hampton Roads Bridge Tunnel (HRBT) connects the Virginia Beach area to the north side of Hampton Roads, which is where most traffic jams happen, so plan your trip accordingly.
  • With cheap car rentals in Virginia Beach, it’s easy for you to explore different parts of the city while also discovering some of the other towns that are in the larger region. For example, you can use your rental vehicle to drive to Norfolk, which is approximately 20 to 25min away. You can also go to Chesapeake, which is around 30min from Virginia Beach, or Portsmouth, which can also be reached by car in approximately half an hour.
  • When driving cheap car rentals in Virginia Beach, it's important to remember that you might encounter a toll road or two. There are quite a few toll roads that lead in and out of the city, including the I-64 Express, the I-66 Inside Beltway, and the Powhite Parkway. Each of these three toll roads will cost you approximately $1.50, but the fares for other roads may vary.
  • The area has quite a few annual events that take place, which may make it difficult for you to drive Virginia Beach car rentals in the city center. There is the Neptune Wine Festival, which usually takes place over several days in September, as well as the North American Sand Soccer Tournament, which occurs each year in June.
  • 25% of our users found rental cars in Virginia Beach for $46 or less
  • Intermediate rental cars in Virginia Beach are around 38% cheaper than other car types, on average

Pickup/dropoff was not where scheduled when paid for. Was called day before with location changed. Back off vehicle had flat tire and an interior panel laying in it, no washer fluid. Slde sliding door did not work properly. Had to be opened from inside most of the trip. Was told I could take it to airport to exchange no offer to get me another delivered. When complaint was filed before I left for trip was told I would get a partial refund. Have not seen it. Budget apparently really means budget customer care. Would never use them again!!!!

Pros:

Cons:

There was no car available when I showed up. The one person working there did not help me find another Budget location with a car, so I had to go to Enterprise and pay double the amount due to the increased rates of same day rental reservations. I won’t use Kayak for car rentals again either.

My friend paid for the rental because I forgot my credit card and then I went back up there and switched out her card for my card and removed her from the reservation. I did not want her card being charged. She was charged 1 cent and I was told her card was removed and they charged this to remove the original hold. I was assured when I dropped the car back off that it was my card being charged. Nevertheless, my friend called me and she was charged. I wasted my time going all the way back up there the day of the rental pick up for nothing since this happened. Very disappointed.

Pros:

Nothing at all. Unacceptable and unprofessional.

Cons:

We received a confirmation with location to pick up the car. When we arrived the rep stated that they didnt have the reservation and the site we booked it through was not legitimate. My husband showed her the information amd she stated it was not a reservation. They ended up sending us to another enterprise and made us pay 140.00 more. We had no choice as we were traveling with children for a youth tournament and needed transportation. Unacceptable.

There were unexpected fees, and things not explained. I went to pick up the car but wasn’t allowed to use my debit card- I have no credit card and there were no other options or help offered. Luckily one of my passengers had a credit card. The toll system wasn’t explained and the fee for toll charges is outrageous. The rep at pickup was nice, but not hugely helpful. The rep at drop off was very good.

It was terrible, the customer service was poor. Our car broke down and they wouldn’t compensate us with a new one. Our reservation got screwed up so they said we had to rent a whole new car instead of just doing a vehicle exchange. Me receipt said jan 13 - jan 17 but for some reason the customer service reps kept saying that the vehicle was due on jan 14 and although I showed them my receipt with the proper information, they made us pay for a new car. And on top of that, they were rude as can be. This was the worst car rental experience of my life. I’m never using Avis again.

This location was top notch! They were very helpful, and upgraded our car size because that was the only car they had available at that location.
