Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Dana Point?
You get bang for your travel buck in Dana Point, with car rental prices within the past seven days starting from as low as $22 a day.
Can I rent a car from John Wayne Airport (SNA)?
Enterprise and Avis are just a short drive from John Wayne Airport (SNA). After touching down, it won't be long before you're cruising down the road.
What happens if I need to cancel my Dana Point car reservation?
We understand that flexibility is important. That's why many reservations give a full refund if you notify us a minimum of six hours prior to the pickup time. It's still good to check your rental agreement though because there are some exemptions. If you can't find the answer there, head over to our Customer Service Portal.
Where can I go on a road trip from Dana Point?
When you've ticked off the fabulous places in Dana Point, there's heaps more to discover in the surrounding area. Grab the keys to a rental car, toss your bags in the trunk and hit the road. We've pulled together some road trips we think you'll love:

  • Los Angeles is about 50 miles from Dana Point. Renowned attractions like Universal Studios Hollywood deserve to be high on your list here.
  • Your next stop? It has to be Riverside, which is around 40 miles away. Desert Hills Premium Outlets is one local highlight you won't want to miss.
  • Channel Islands National Park is around 130 miles from Dana Point and is one of the region's most gorgeous nature spots. Pack a picnic lunch and enjoy the fresh air here.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Dana Point with Expedia?
Check out ratings and reviews, choose your car type and compare offers from top suppliers. Expedia makes it a cinch to get the best deal on your rental wheels. Combine your Dana Point car rental with hotel or flight bookings and hit the road with even more in your wallet.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Dana Point?
Dana Point requires drivers to be 21 and above to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra cost and some restrictions on choice. Most suppliers impose a young renter fee on top of the usual rental rate. This covers the higher risk of accident or damage. While many car classes (like compact and mid-size) are available to young drivers, restrictions generally apply to luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Dana Point?
Any rental company you select will require two things — a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you choose to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up the keys.
What is the cheapest car rental in Dana Point?
$22 and $24 were the lowest daily rates for rental cars in Dana Point within the past seven days. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Dana Point?
You can. We partner with quality suppliers that offer long-term rentals for a wide range of cars. Book one of our long-term car rental deals and explore every nook and cranny of Dana Point — or far beyond!
Where can I find a Dana Point car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental suppliers, so you'll have to do some research. Found a Dana Point outlet that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? Terrific! Just be aware that some companies charge extra fees to drivers between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're looking at should have all the information you need.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Dana Point?
Get your road trip off to a good start by choosing Expedia's collision protection. While there are many types of insurance, this is one you'll need to have. It provides primary coverage for accident damage, theft and vandalism up to $35,000, as well as round-the-clock emergency support. Don't wait until you get to the rental desk to insure your ride. Opt in to collision protection while reserving your Dana Point ride with Expedia and save time and money.
