KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Oak Bluffs

  • Oak Bluffs car rentals provide you with the freedom to explore the city and its surroundings on your own time. With a rental car, you can easily visit popular spots like Oak Bluffs Harbor, Circuit Avenue, Inkwell Beach, and the beloved Flying Horses Carousel on your own schedule. Having a car allows you to optimize your time by efficiently visiting multiple destinations in a shorter period. You are not bound by the schedules of public transportation, and you can avoid the higher costs associated with rideshare cars or taxis. Enjoy the convenience and flexibility of exploring Oak Bluffs and its highlights with a rental car.
  • Cape Cod Gateway Airport (HYA) is a convenient option for picking up car rentals in Oak Bluffs. With approximately four reputable rental companies available, you'll have a variety of familiar choices to cater to your requirements. The airport offers service desks for all of these companies adjacent to the baggage claim area, and then each one of their rental cars is just outside of the terminal in the parking lots that passengers will find outside.
  • Oak Bluffs is a pedestrian and bicycle-friendly town. Be aware of cyclists and pedestrians sharing the road and always yield to them when necessary. Oak Bluffs has several roundabouts. Familiarize yourself with the rules of navigating roundabouts, such as yielding to traffic already in the roundabout and using your turn signals to indicate your exit.
  • Some of the busiest times you will find driving in car rentals in Oak Bluffs are on weekends during the summer months. This heavier traffic will be especially evident on roads like Circuit Avenue, Beach Road, Seaview Avenue, and Barnes Road. You are also going to find tougher driving conditions during some of the annual events in this area, including the Grand Illumination Night held in August, the Oak Bluffs Fireworks taking place around July 4th, and the Harbor Festival held in June.
  • Book your car hire in Oak Bluffs at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Supplier choice hire cars in Oak Bluffs are around 48% more expensive than other car types, on average

    The best type of car rentals in Oak Bluffs depends on your specific needs and preferences. If you're traveling alone or with a small group, a compact car or a sedan may be sufficient for navigating the city streets and parking in tight spaces. However, if you have a larger group or plan to carry a lot of luggage, you might prefer a larger car, such as a minivan or SUV, for added comfort and storage space. If you plan to visit Oak Bluffs during the winter months or if you intend to explore the countryside, you might want to consider renting a car with features suitable for those conditions. For example, a car with winter tires or four-wheel drive may be more appropriate for snowy or icy roads.

  • What are the speed limits in the Oak Bluffs area?

    The speed limit within urban areas, including residential streets and downtown areas, is typically 25 mph.

The standard speed limit on most non-urban roads is 40 mph to 50 mph. However, there may be specific areas or sections where the speed limit is lower due to factors such as road conditions, curves, or congestion.

  • What are some of the best places to park in Oak Bluffs?

    A great feature of visiting here is that almost all parking is free of charge. A couple of good options for parking include the Oak Bluffs Harbor Parking Lot, which has a location near the Oak Bluffs Harbor. This parking lot offers convenient access to the harbor, downtown area, and Circuit Avenue. Oak Bluffs has several town-owned parking lots located throughout the town. These lots provide additional parking options, including the lot near the Steamship Authority terminal and the lot behind the Oak Bluffs Police Station.

Great experience overall. The agent at the counter was helpful and friendly. LOVE that there was so little paperwork. Time at the counter was fast. Still pricey however.

Hertz gave me a car that had a slow leak in one tire. It also lacked caps on the valves. When i returned it after two days the young man (not the boss) told me I MUST DRIVE IT ACROSS THE ISLAND, LEAVE IT WITH A REPAIR/GAS STATION --OVERNIGHT--AND PICK IT UP MYSELF NEXT DAY! Even though I had no other transportation. Unbelievable!!. I refused, eventually the boss showed up, and they gave me a much older car (30,000 miles plus), but only after the young woman--a cleaner--hearing the argument, said she knew of another car, which was ready. That second car, though a standard, not the economy size I had ordered, worked well for three weeks. The young woman should have been behind the counter, not the male youth who talked a lot but had an empty head and no perception of my problem or his real j0b. Misogyny?

Pros:

Nothing. Zero. First time user and "never again".

Cons:

Wanted (and booked) a one day rental on Martha's Vineyard, MA. Checked the pick up location; close to the ferry. Excellent. I confirmed. The confirmation now switched to Falmouth, MA, where I live. Was supposed to pick up the car on Gifford St. on the Vineyard. NOT Gifford St. in Falmouth. Can't cancel through Hertz; "gotta go through Kayak". Kayak says "no refunds or cancellations, gotta go through Hertz". Horribly run company. Never again using Kayak.

Only one problem with the car rental experience. Budget In Falmouth, Ma is scheduled to open at 8:30 AM, the staff did not show up until 9:15AM. It was pouring rain and a line of about 8 people standing in line outside office in the rain. Calling the location did not help. Mail box was full. Going online with Budget with live chat did not help. Very concerning as many people were headed to airports, a funeral, etc. Car was about 90% full of gas and the car was never gone over or checked by staff. Very poor experience at picking up car. Car itself was nice and clean. Drop off was great!

Pros:

The woman at the Falmouth location was helpful and friendly. The car was quite literally perfect (new).

Cons:

Personally, I think another sign or two marking the location of the office would be good. Also, I'm surprised how much pen and paper is involved. Speaking of pens, if they're going to require you to write mileage/fuel etc. on a piece of paper when you drop off, then there should be a pen in the car or next to the dropbox!

The Avis rental office was unstaffed for 3 hours despite being open according to their hours and Avis customer service. Customer service could not get in touch with anyone who was supposed to be on shift. I was stranded there for 3 hours before having to book a hotel. Their only option for me was to take a 200 dollar Uber to Boston Logan Airport that Avis would not cover

It took us nearly an hour to pick up our car. The office was severely over staffed with just one person there to handle all pickups, clean the car and deal with drop offs. She was stressed out and unfriendly. The person ahead of us took 45 minutes to resolve some issue with her car, so my family had to wait in the hot sun outside the tiny office. When we finally got inside, the person behind the desk had our reservation written down, and knew we were coming (we had reserved ahead and called the day before to confirm), yet she had to slowly re-enter all our information. Then she told us she had no clean cars available, so we had to wait while she ran out to clean out the car we had reserved, which had trash in the front seat, unvacuumed etc. While this was happening two more people came and had to wait, so I’m guessing this one poor agent had to deal with angry visitors all day waiting for her to manage. No wonder she was stressed and hostile!! Avis please support your teams with better systems and staffing. We will find another option for future transportation.
