Top Tips for Renting a Convertible Car in Monterey

  • Driving Monterey convertible car rentals is a breathtaking way to see this utterly charming coastal city on the Pacific shores of California. You can drive around in style among the town’s seafood restaurants, bars, boutiques, and gift shops, many of which are located in converted factories. You can soak in the sun and let the wind blow through your hair as you drive through the surrounding area, immortalized by John Steinbeck. Monterey convertible car rentals can add yet another fascinating dimension to your time in this quaint city rich in history and culture.
  • For those interested in driving Monterey convertible car rentals south to the Mexican border, be advised that you need the car rental agency’s say so in order to cross into Mexico with the car. Car rental agencies tend to prohibit specialty cars, such as convertibles, from leaving the country. If you do not secure the car rental agency’s permission to cross the border, do not attempt it without their permission. If you do, the rental contract will be null and void, making you fully financially responsible for anything that might happen while you are driving in Mexico.
  • Since car rental agencies are unlikely to allow Monterey convertible car rentals off their lot unless they are insured, be prepared to bring proof of your own insurance policy if you intend to opt out of purchasing car rental agency insurance. If you are going to use coverage from your personal car insurance policy or coverage via a credit card, bring either photocopies or screenshots of the pages of the policy that detail rental car coverage.
  • Since Monterey is a small town but also a tourist town, those driving Monterey convertible car rentals can expect some congestion on the roads. During peak rush hours of 7 am to 10 am and then 3 pm to 7 pm, Monterey will experience rush hour traffic congestion on US Highway 1, which courses through the city connecting it to much busier California cities such as San Jose and San Francisco. Monterey tends to be a bike-friendly community, so as you are driving, be aware that you are sharing the road with both cyclists and pedestrian tourists.
  • Book your convertible car rental in Monterey at least 5 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • October is typically the cheapest month to rent a convertible car in Monterey, with prices around $60 per day. The most expensive month is February, with average prices of $173 per day.

FAQs About Renting a Convertible Car in Monterey

  • Can I find Monterey convertible car rentals at the airport?

    When you are flying to Central California in order to visit Monterey, you might be landing at a number of different airports, including the Norman Mineta San Jose International Airport (SJC), the San Francisco International Airport (SFO), or the Oakland International Airport (OAK). Each of these airports has several on-site car rental agencies with Monterey convertible car rentals available in their fleets. However, make sure you make a reservation before arriving to pick up your car so that they have a convertible available on the dates that you need it.

  • What is the minimum age for securing Monterey convertible car rentals?

    In Monterey and throughout California, you need to be at least 21 years old in order to rent a car. However, a car rental agency might require that you're older in order to rent a specialty car such as a convertible. If you are in your 20s, ask about age restrictions when you make your reservation. Also ask whether there will be a daily fee added to your rental charge because of your age and if so, how much it will be.

  • What documents do I need in order to collect my Monterey convertible car rental?

    At the time you arrive at the agency to get your convertible car rental in Monterey, you will need to present your US driving license, which needs to be current and valid. You also need a credit card, a fairly major one, such as Visa or MasterCard, in order to secure a deposit for the convertible.

Car was damaged at pickup. Tried to report to agent at counter but they disappeared to wash a car. Tried calling customer service number on receipt but they said they could only manage reservations. Tried emailing customer service with images of the damage and never heard back.

When I got into the vehicle, the windshield and every window of the car were covered with water on the inside. The windows were all closed, so it seems like someone may have cleaned off the entire inside and not dried any of it. I had to wipe everything down with some spare clothes, then blast the heat until the windshield finished drying off. It took ages and I ended up with some wet clothes. Was completely unacceptable.

Rental was for 08:00 am, but the car was not ready until 09:00. Was told they do not have the staff and he could not tell me when the car would be ready. Once the car was delivered, still had trash in the back from prior rental.

Pros:

The staff was great, the service was excellent - easy pick up and drop-off (and the woman staffing the desk remembered me three days later!). I found the entire experience to be easy and understandable (where to go, what to do, etc.) from beginning to end.

Cons:

The car wasn't all that great. It was safe, it was functional, and it was most definitely clean. However, I would have preferred something a little more comfortable and modern, even at my small-car/low-level need.

I made the reservation through Kayak, they called me 1 hour before the pick up time and told me they don’t have the car. The person I talked to was very rude, refused to let me talk to his manager, refused to tell me his full name, and at the end told me his is not going to do anything for me.
