KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Anacortes

  • Using car rentals in Anacortes has more benefits than using public transport. Car rentals offer flexibility in choosing your route, schedule and exploring multiple destinations. It provides enhanced comfort as you have ample storage place, can travel with family or partner, and can control certain features, including temperature in the car. With Anacortes car rentals, you can explore scenic places, including Washington Park, Mt Erie Park, and Cap Sante Park.
  • You will fly into Bellingham International Airport (BLI) if visiting Anacortes. BLI offers several car rental companies with on-site counters in its main terminal next to the baggage claim area. The car rental companies must ascertain information to ensure your car rental worthiness, including presenting them with proof of return airline flight that matches your rental. They must also assess your credit history and need a valid driver's license. Most car rental companies at BLI require you to be at least 25 years to rent, although there are a few exceptions that allow drivers aged at least 21 years with some limitations.
  • When using car rentals in Anacortes, you must be laid-back when driving on the roads. You can practice this by yielding to pedestrians at crosswalks, following traffic rules, adhering to traffic lights and speeds, and using turn signals. For enhanced safety, you may also need to be cautious when driving around Anacortes due to their hilly and winding terrain. The town is cyclist-friendly. You, therefore, have to share the road with cyclists. Anacortes is one of the sustainable towns as it encourages carbon emission reduction by encouraging more drivers to opt for electric vehicles.
  • Traffic will likely increase during certain times in Anacortes, including during tourist season and special events. Using car rentals in Anacortes may be challenging, typically during morning hours from 7 am to 9 am and evening hours from 4 pm to 6 pm. Major roads in Anacortes affected by traffic congestion during these rush hour times include 12th Street, Commercial Avenue, Oakes Avenue, and Fidalgo Bay Road. You can instead use H Avenue, I Avenue, and J Avenue. The fall season makes it challenging for drivers to navigate the roads due to heavy rainfall and fog, reducing visibility.
  • Book your car hire in Anacortes at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

The Enterprise on Iowa St doesn't have shuttles running to and from Bellingham airport. That is the only reason for the 4 (not 5 stars). They are different from the Enterprise that is located at the airport. However, there is a significant difference in the cost of rental. I saved a considerable amount by renting from the one on Iowa St (6 miles from airport). Only had to schedule/locate taxi and Uber services myself. It is not their fault for not having a shuttle service to the airport. There is some kind of agreement that prevents them from servicing the airport. Other than that, they are excellent.

Pros:

The pick up point was easy to find and get to. The guy (Alex) at the pick up point was very friendly and helpful and told us we could drop off at another, for us, more convenient location (which was also easy to find) for a small fee which proved to be extremely valuable because we accumulated lots of luggage! He didn't press us to take out any of the "usual" car hire add-on's, he asked once and when we said no he didn't ask further. The car was new, clean and reliable, we drove over 5000 miles and there was no issue. We found the online booking very easy and would recommend to everyone.

We wanted a car at the airport, but kayak booked us a car in town. We will avoid kayak in the future.

Pros:

The check out staff was very friendly. We did not see anyone when we dropped off the car.

Cons:

We probably paid too much for paying for a half tank of gas before taking car. I’m sure we didn’t use that much.

I paid for a rental car on line with my debit card. I arrived to pickup the car only to find out that I couldn't because you don't accept debit cards. I want my money returned to my debit account. You accept credit cards only, so why accept payment via debit card?

Absolutely nothing.

Cons:

We reserved a car but there were no cars. I expected to pay $78 but had to spend $210 to rake an uber to the airport rather than the rental car. The person at the desk said they were out of cars and asked corporate to stop allowing cars to be rented but there was no response.
