Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Santa Maria?
Getting around Santa Maria doesn't have to drain your savings, with daily car rental prices starting at just $19 within the past seven days.
What happens if I need to cancel my Santa Maria car reservation?
We appreciate that having a bit of wiggle room is important. That's why the majority of reservations give a total refund if canceled a minimum of six hours prior to the pickup time. It's a good idea to check your policy though as there are some exceptions. If the information isn't there, head to our Customer Service Portal.
Where can I go on a road trip from Santa Maria?
Santa Maria is full of adventures, but don't limit yourself to just the one place. Arrange a set of wheels and take to the road to discover what else awaits in the wider area. Here are some great options we've come up with:

  • You'll find New Cathedral of Cuenca and loads of other amazing sights in Cuenca. From Santa Maria, it's about 85 miles away.
  • Located 110 miles away, Ambato is also a favorite with travelers. Allow time to experience Mall of the Andes while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love coming to this buzzing city.
  • Head to El Panecillo for a day out in nature. Take a picnic to enjoy or just relax in the fresh air. From Santa Maria, it's roughly 160 miles away.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Santa Maria with Expedia?
Nabbing the best deal on your Santa Maria rental car is a piece of cake with Expedia. Choose your preferred car type, add in a few more details and compare prices from top suppliers. Why not add hotels and flights to your booking? You'll score even bigger savings when you create a vacation package.
What do you need to rent a car in Santa Maria?
A valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name are necessities. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? In that case, you're also likely to need proof of other coverage. Rules may differ between providers, so read your policy thoroughly.
What is the cheapest car rental in Santa Maria?
Santa Maria has no doubt had some very happy car rental customers lately. Daily prices within the past seven days dropped as low as $19 and $23. 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 Maria?
Yes, which means you won't need to rebook a rental vehicle in the middle of your vacation. Check out our long-term car rental deals page, enter your information and lock in a set of wheels to call your own for however long you need.
Where can I find a Santa Maria car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Santa Maria outlets will rent cars to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so be prepared to do your homework. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some places will apply a surcharge to young customers between 21 and 24. Be sure to read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Santa Maria?
We recommend purchasing collision damage protection while reserving your Santa Maria rental car with Expedia. This covers your vehicle against accident damage, theft and vandalism throughout your vacation. Offering up to $35,000 in primary coverage and round-the-clock emergency assistance, you can take the wheel knowing you'll be covered for possible mishaps. It's easy to opt in to this insurance while reserving your rental vehicle.
Can I drive in Santa Maria with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Ecuador, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car. It's also important to note that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid 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 vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger, 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: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive away. You typically can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your rental car.
