- A vacation in Northern Miami Beach can be more fun if your rent a van to facilitate your movements to different destinations. Compared to public transport as offered by Miami-Dade Transit Agency, Northern Miami Beach car rentals are better because of the greater convenience and flexibility. The van allows you to move around the city with more luggage conveniently, as well as gives you the option of setting your own travel schedules, including departure times and routes to follow. One of the most popular attraction sites in Northern Miami Beach, which you should not miss visiting with your rental van, is Oleta River State Park.
- In North Miami Beach, driving with a blood alcohol content (BAC) exceeding 0.08% is prohibited by law.

Also, if you are under 21 years of age, the law prohibits you from having any level of alcohol in your system while driving. If you are found to have a BAC of 0.02% or higher, you will be charged with underage DUI.

Pros:
The car was nice, had great gas mileage, was clean.Cons:
The pick-up and drop off experience was weird. A bunch of customers were in line complaining about their experience and I really didn't like the way the staff handled their complaints. One woman (angrily) said that she had tried calling many times and could not get through. Without missing a beat, an employee stated that the phone was disconnected. How is that an okay response? How is it okay for your phone to be disconnected? It was just awkward standing in line around all of this and it made me nervous that we would be unable to get the car we reserved considering all of the complaining happening around us. My dropoff experience was also terrible. We were returning the car by 5pm on New Years even in Miami. We found an Alamo location closer to our hotel in South Beach and confirmed that we could drop the car off there, we even called Alamos customer service line to confirm the closing time of the location, we were told it was 7pm. We arrived just after 3pm and were told that they were closed. So, I decided to find another location, this one at a hospital, and after driving 30 minutes there I found no location and was told by a security guard that there was no Alamo rental car location there. Finally I returned to the original location where I picked up the car. It was scheduled to close at 5pm, I got there around 4:40 and apparently it was pure luck that I was able to return the car. An employee happened to be moving a car and told me they were closed, but he took the car and keys and said he'd close it out in the morning. He seemed to really want me to get out of there, I was concerned because we didn't do a post-rental inspection, but it seems that he closed it out without issue. Still, it wasn't a great experience to hunt for a location where I could return the car after calling and confirming our plans with Alamo themselves.2,0 Poor

When we got to the airport we apparently booked at a place offsite from airport, and our we were at the airport after 6 and that offsite place closed at 6. The man at the Sixt counter at the airport would not let us transfer the rental. So I lost $250 and had to book a last minute rental from a different service for $900. Absolutely ridiculous I will NEVER use your service again!10,0 Wonderful

Pros:
Vehicle was brand new which was great given COVID.Cons:
The pickup in MIA was terrible in terms of time it took to get the vehicle. We waited about 45 minutes in line and even though I filled out everyone on-line for check-in, it seemed that I repeated the whole process once at the counter. Sixt needs to find a way to speed up the check-in process otherwise I'll go elsewhere.2,0 Poor
