Since the city is small and has many tight roads, a compact car is a convenient choice for your Destin car rental. A smaller model will make it easier to park when space is limited, and it will help you to clearly navigate through the town’s narrow streets.
When you’re driving near Destin, the speed limit on Highway 98 is generally between 35 to 40mph. However, in some areas, you can plan on it being as low as 25mph. Within the city itself, speed limits are on average 25mph, but some streets have limits as low as 7mph. Major intersections often have video cameras, so avoid speeding to not receive a ticket. There are usually many police officers stationed along Highways 98 and 293, so you’ll want to be careful when driving there as well.
While it is possible to find some free street parking, it can be difficult to snag them. The City of Destin offers quite a few paid parking options for a flat rate of $5 per 24h. These include public parking lots at the Destin Community Center, Destin Library, Marler Street, and Zerbe Street. Keep in mind that these different parking options have a first-come, first serve basis, so try to arrive early in the day to ensure that you have a spot.

Cons:
Vehicle was nice and clean and there weren’t any issues with the billing. The only complaint is when we got to the pickup location the office was locked and there was a sign stating they had to leave to assist another customer. I get that happens but we waited for over an hour along with several other customers. It was kind of a pain getting to the rental location from the airport but considering it was 1/3 of the price I would do it again.8,0 Very Good

Pros:
Check in person was friendly.Cons:
Location is Far from airport. No taxis or ubers available to get there. Expensive to get to rental location. Took a long time for Enterprise to get my car once I finally found a way there. Smelled smoky, finally found a Used Cigarette on the floor in back seat. Overall not a good experience.4,0 Mediocre

Cons:
I reserved a Jetta more than a month out from my vacation. I go to pick up my car. They tell me that they are giving me an upgrade to a 2 door mustang convertible. They don’t have anything else. I have a family of 4 with 2 car seats. The car was a pain to put 2 kids in car seats and luggage for 4 people. I don’t have much confidence in enterprise for my next visit.5,2 Fair

Pros:
The dude at the dropoff was super nice and friendly. He stated they were understaffed and worked very hard to help us as quickly as possible.Cons:
The vehicle had been recently smoked in. it smelled terrible. My son and wife asked multiple times to have the windows rolled down to get some fresh air inside. Very disappointing on SUPER hot days.One location in Destin

Pros:
We asked specifically for a car that seated 8 and we got a car that seated 7. There were no cars that seated 8 so someone had to ride illegally and unsafe the entire trip.Cons:
The lady that helped at Pickup was not helpful on instructing drop off after hours. The car stunk. And giving people the amount of seating they request is pretty vital.10,0 Wonderful

Pros:
Staff at the counter were very friendly and helpful.Cons:
Our car's lift gate was not working properly. It would open and then shut. We were not going to ruin our vacation by taking it back to Budget to let them take time out of our vacation to fix. Thankful someone did not get hurt. Car needed to be checked over before releasing it to customers.2,0 Poor
Apr 2021
Pros:
It was quick. The drop off was easy.Cons:
The Budget rep forced me to “upgrade” at the ticket counter since I was dropping the car in another location. (That was known when I placed the reservation.) She tried to get us to pay more for car I reserved or more for an upgraded car. I declined. She then said I had to pay for XM radio at $6 per day or the car I reserved couldn’t leave the lot. I was tired from traveling so we just swallowed it. When we got to the car, it had been smoked in, damaged on the body, and had 56k miles at the start.8,0 Very Good

The staff was super condescending and put me in an economy car despite the fact I paid for a mid size. I brought the car back @ 6 versus 4 and was charged an additional $38 when the daily rental was only $27 which seemed extremely inflated.2,0 Poor
