KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Cocoa

  • Driving car rentals in Cocoa is a fantastic way to see this city situated on the northeastern shore of Florida. Faster and more convenient than taking public transportation, Cocoa car rentals can get you to appointments you need to keep or to sites you want to see, such as Cocoa Riverfront Park, the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex, HHHistoric Cocoa Village, and the Sands Space History Center. Driving car rentals in Cocoa will also give you the freedom to drive west to Orlando, north to Jacksonville, and south to Fort Lauderdale and Miami.
  • Located less than 50 miles to the west of Cocoa, Orlando International Airport (MCO) is a wonderful place for securing car rentals. At MCO, you can find car rental agencies in Terminal A on level 1, in terminal B on level 1, and in terminal C on level 4. From MCO, you can take FL-408 East to FL-50 East to FL-520 East to FL-528 East into Cocoa.
  • In Cocoa, Florida, the roads are well maintained, but traffic can be dense and congested, especially on the freeways. Even though average commute time in Cocoa is about 3 minutes shorter than the national average commute, you will undoubtedly experience backed up traffic, especially between peak rush hours of 7 am to 9 am and 4 am to 6 am. Traffic on the A1A which goes from Cocoa across the Indian River and Merritt Island and the Banana River to Cocoa Beach gets particularly congested throughout the day.
  • When you are driving car rentals in Cocoa, you will undoubtedly encounter toll roads. Many of these toll roads accept electronic payment only. Consider investing in your car rental agency’s toll program in order to avoid fines from both the state of Florida and your car rental company. Often, if you try to pay electronically with your own transponder in a rental car, the payment will not register because the account name for the transponder does not match the registered owner of the car. Thus, you get fined. Also, for those driving car rentals in Cocoa, do not slow down or attempt to stop when going through electronic payment toll booths. Also, those driving car rentals in Cocoa need to be aware that bridges often have fares you must pay in order to cross.
  • Book your car hire in Cocoa at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Mini hire cars in Cocoa are around 5% more expensive than other car types, on average

Enterprise refused to rent me the vehicle in FL because I am renting a car in RI through an insurance company, due to my personal car is being serviced/repaired at the Porsche Dealership. (Enterprise is the only company at the Porsche Dealership). Very poor company policy for business travelers in multiple states that two cars cannot be rented at same time.

Hard to find the office. The address on the office didn’t work great with google maps. The address from google itself worked. Also, there’s still too much nonsense paperwork even if you reserve and pay online, but the whole rental car industry is guilty of this.

When renting a car a few days prior in Orlando (and dropping off to this exact location) we were given the option for picking out what car we wanted and it was a REALLY nice thing. We were traveling with 3 teenagers and it was great to pick a car that really meet our needs and didn't beak the bank. This time we were assigned cars. There were other people at the counter renting in the same catagory as us who were getting to pick or were getting offered the brand new crossovers that were coming in. We had and older car and it was cramped- especially seeing how we ended up needing to drive back to NY in it after some other travel plans changed suddenly
