Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Santa Cruz?
Get serious bang for your buck in Santa Cruz, with car rental prices within the past seven days starting from as low as $24 a day.
What happens if I need to cancel my Santa Cruz car reservation?
When you cancel at least six hours before collecting the car, most reservations qualify for a full refund. However, not every one is eligible for this, so it's important to read the rental policy. Look over your booking for the details or head to our Customer Service Portal for more information.
How do I find the best car rental deals in Santa Cruz with Expedia?
Browse our wide selection of rental cars, check out customer ratings and compare offers from major brands. In just a few clicks, Expedia will help you get the best deal on your ride. Got a flight or hotel booking? Add on your Santa Cruz car rental and save even more.
What do you need to rent a car in Santa Cruz?
Renting a car in Santa Cruz is a cinch. Generally, all you'll need is your driver's license and a credit card in the same name. After selecting your perfect set of wheels, read the terms and conditions to make sure there are no further requirements before pickup.
What is the cheapest car rental in Santa Cruz?
$24 and $28 were the lowest daily rates picked up by rental car customers in Santa Cruz 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 Santa Cruz?
Yes, which means you won't need to rebook a rental car halfway through your vacation. Head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your details and find a ride to call your own for the duration of your getaway.
Where can I find a Santa Cruz car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to check the age policy of the Santa Cruz rental providers you're considering. If you're under 25 years old, some companies will charge extra fees. It's useful to know this in advance so you can plan your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so it pays to do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Santa Cruz?
After meticulously planning your big trip, don't skimp on safety — purchase collision protection while reserving your Santa Cruz rental car with Expedia. There are plenty of benefits to this plan, including up to $35,000 in primary coverage for accident damage, theft and vandalism. Plus, with no deductible and round-the-clock emergency assistance, you'll be able to breathe a little easier if the unexpected occurs.
Can I drive in Santa Cruz with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Puerto Rico, then it's likely you'll need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be allowed to rent a car. Please also consider that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some added requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it may still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before sliding behind the wheel. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with your rental car.
