BristonApr 2025

Use a rental company that lets you go straight to the lot, choose a car, and drive out. I have never had a bad experience with one of those, I have rarely had a good experience with the cheaper options.

DavidMay 2025

Keep an eye on charges to your card after renting.

MichaelFeb 2025

MazenNov 2024

Rent from a reputable car rental agency. You’ll pay a little bit more but it’s worth not having the hassle, unforeseen charges, comfort and convenience.

EdSept 2024

Shop around. It took a little time, but I got a great price on a good car.

PepperSept 2024

Ensure that you are aware that you are going through a third party, that the address to the rental car place is accurate and that they will give you a receipt upon return.

NathanNov 2024

When in Tampa, opt for vehicle selections with more power and reliable, quick braking. The drivers are aggressive and you want to have the tools to avoid a collision.

EasyOct 2024

For any rental, You have to take a shuttle to get to the car. Leave an extra half hour for pick up.

EugeneNov 2024

Most drivers in Florida will require a Sun Pass.....if you have a Fast pass, bring it!

Verified travelerAug 2024

Rent a car at one of the companies directly at the on terminal location where you just need to take the train- not an additional shuttle that may take 5-30 minutes to arrive.

FrancineJul 2024

I would definitely tell them to buy the toll package because there were tolls on every road we went on.

Verified travelerJun 2024

Budget was easy and I would use them again

PHILAug 2024

Stick to the airport rental car locations, not off site rentals, it was confusing to find pickup location, the driver was great, friendly and he helped he return the car after I waited in line for 15 minutes with no one even saying hello or greeting me or anyone else.

Verified travelerAug 2024

Though we were happy renting the Toyota Camry we rented, we saw a JEEP Cherokee parked next to us and we tried calling the office for an upgrade but, we weren't able to speak to a representative about it.

Verified travelerAug 2024

Roads are pretty easy to drive in Tampa. If renting a Tesla know that the adapters are not included.

Verified travelerJul 2024

Read fine print and go with a bigger known company

Verified travelerApr 2024

There are plenty of rental car companies at the airport and they are all very competitive. Use them, no need to go off site and deal with sub-standard companies.

lyndaMar 2024

Always good to go with a convertible in Florida! Shop around though, there are so many of them you can find a deal!

TimMay 2024

Bring your ezpass so you can avoid the plate pass rental. Lots of toll roads here.

Verified travelerMar 2024

Smooth handoff and experience. Staff was very nice and informative.

Verified travelerMay 2024

Enterprise was by far our best rental yet!

ElizabethMay 2024

There are shuttles to take you between terminals but it’s a bit of zig zagging if you check bags. I was traveling solo with kids and had to shuttle to get my bags, then shuttle again to get the car. That’s not an Alamo issue but more of an airport heads up

Verified travelerMay 2024

There are gas stations located close to the airport if you want to fuel up the vehicle on your own. There are a number of toll roads in the area so you may want to consider getting the additional toll coverage.

CraigMar 2024

Check your auto insurance coverage before the trip as it may or may not cover a rental. Many times you can avoid additional fees if you have a copy of your coverage.

Verified travelerMar 2024

Inquiry about a navigation system ahead of time if that is a convenience that you may find useful.

SeanMay 2024

Use the major companies. Stay away from the ones you never heard of. Read reviews on Google.

Verified travelerApr 2024

We rented a van and everything went very well. Traffic is busy, drive safe.

Verified travelerApr 2024

Only rent cars through the big companies that have a presence on airport property. It may cost more but at least you can expect to have a reasonable transaction in an reasonable amount of time. If you still want to go with one of the off-site rental companies just look at their reviews on google maps first. There you will see several negative experiences similar to my own.

DavidFeb 2024

Get the Sunpass with your rental to avoid high toll fees.

DavidDec 2023

The car rental center is a tram ride away. We had 1 person pick up the car while the other collected the luggage. After picking up the car, we then drove back to the terminal to get the other person and the luggage. All car rentals are at the car rental center

Verified travelerFeb 2024

Get the insurance the rental company offers unless you have ironclad proof your company will meet their demands. It's easier.

Verified travelerDec 2023

Just use the car rental services at the airport.

Verified travelerNov 2023

Get the Florida Sun Pass if you aren't sure of the tolls on the Florida highways. I drove over the Sunshine Skyway Bridge to Bradenton Florida during my stay.

JohnSept 2023

The airport built a new dedicated area expressly for all the major car rental companies to be in one area which is quite nice

Verified travelerOct 2023

It's easy to drive in Tampa. Rent from a reputable company. Nextcar had a clean car and no line.

Keep your eyes wide open. Lots of traffic

Verified travelerOct 2023

Don’t always go for the well known brands

KiranOct 2023

Please rent from national agencies such as Hertz Avis Budget Enterprise etc. Local renters impose mileage restrictions and force to buy expensive insurance coverage from them and impose several other charges if you don’t ask them to explain. Lots of rip-off agents. Be very careful.

LucindaJun 2023

Rent from Avis. It might cost more but they will be there when your flight gets in. They are the only car rental that is staffed after midnight. Europcar/Fox might be cheap but they are horrible if you have any delay, even if uou call to tell them.

Verified travelerJun 2023

Good area for driving. Set my GPS for avoiding tolls and had no trouble getting around. Expected slowdowns near Clearwater beach we're not too terrible

JessicaJul 2023

Do it at the airport. Expensive but better service and communication.

Verified travelerJul 2023

Happy with the experience 😊

ShelaineJun 2023

I would definitely recommend Nextcar.

MatthewJul 2023

Use the elevators in the car rental center. The escalators are slow, not great for bags (signs do say it’s prohibited), and there is a lot of moving up and down from the the sky train, to checkin, to the garage for pickup.

Verified travelerJun 2023

Double check with the budget agent when checking in regarding the pricing that they have

TiagoAug 2023

location is not the problem. it won't know until you see the car

Check the car before getting out. , report it any little scratches,.

Just use one of the big companies.

DannyJul 2023

Stick with the known brands

Verified travelerMay 2023

Make sure you plan extra time. Always lock the vehicle and don't leave any valuables in plain site in the vehicle.

Verified travelerMay 2023

I would recommend clarifying the Sunpass usage through license plate.

Verified travelerMay 2023

Don't go with a no-name provider like Green Motion. If they aren't one of the top 10, you think you will save money in the end, but you won't. Stay away from Thrifty/Dollar at TPA unless you are in their preferred program that lets you skip the counter. Good companies, but the lines are inexcusably long and slow moving. And lastly, inspect the vehicle and do not be afraid to ask for a different one if you are dissatisfied with the condition (smell, cleanliness, scratches, etc.).

For travelers planning on renting a car during their time in Tampa, it is as simple as hopping onto the SkyConnect train after your flight to Tampa International Airport lands. The SkyConnect train can be found in the main terminal building and connects the airport to the hire Car Center and the Economy Parking Lot.
Travelers new to Florida should be extra careful when driving in the rain, especially during the later summer months. Storms can appear out of nowhere and can quickly flood the streets with water, making them dangerous for inexperienced drivers. The flooding will pass quickly, so just be sure to keep an eye on the weather.
Rush hour in Tampa lasts from 7:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and picks back up again from 3:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. During rush hour, Hillsborough Ave and many of the I-275 exits can become very backed up so it pays to time your trip accordingly. Much of the historic downtown is made up of smaller streets that can grind to a halt during rush hour as well.
One of the major advantages to renting a car in Tampa is the easy access to all of its wonderful nearby beaches and state parks. For instance, Clearwater Beach, Fort De Soto Park, and Caladesi Island State Park are all readily accessed by car, but are extremely laborious to reach via public transportation. Chances are, you will want to take advantage of the wonderful shopping opportunities in the greater Tampa area and a car is necessary for that as well.

Convertible

Well, your confirmation of my rental really wasn’t. The car I rented and confirmed was not there. The agent at the counter was nice but hard to understand. There was no convertible there. He said they never have them. So I was given a Toyota Camry as my only option. No one showed me anything about the car and didn’t walk outside to look at it or help w luggage. Location was also sketchy. Will never be renting from you or Alamo again.

The people at the first enterprise we went to were too busy, unhelpful and gave away our rental car. Took us three hours to find a big enough rental. We reserved the rental June 20th for a family vacation. Really at a loss they gave away our vehicle. We finally found one at another location after going to four locations with no large vehicles. We then paid 300$ more for not even the same car we originally rented. Really disappointed.

I thought our rental deal was too good to be true. We booked through Kayak, But we were pleasantly surprised with the Tampa airport location. The staff were friendly and didn’t push any extras on us. The rental car was clean (Nissian Versa) the staff friendly & courteous. I would 100 % recommend them if you need a rental car in the Tampa area. Just a side note. I also look the car over before taking it off the lot, I also video the entire car inside and out for damage. And take pictures, it does take a few extra minutes but gives me piece of mind.

I didn't appreciate the "nickle and diming"; the final price was almost 3 times what was advertised with all the added fees and taxes etc. They should be far more transparent with the final cost to the customer. Staff are upselling to the benefit of the business and not necessarily that of the customer. I was offered a transponder but after closer inspection it would have been cheaper for me to pay for the tolls. This was very disappointing; I recommend better training and customer sensitivity workshops.

The pickup experience was horrendous, took almost 2.5 hours. The initial check-in line was extremely long. Once check-in was completed and instructed to go to lower floor to pickup car, you had to find an employee to put your name on a waitlist. The system was chaotic and unorganized. The entire process took 2.5 hours, I was late to meet friends for lunch and delayed my entire schedule. I was only in town for a night and required me to make alternate arrangements. Lastly, I was billed incorrectly and charged for refueling, even though I returned it at the same level I took the car.

My experience with the TAMPA AIRPORT DOLLAR RENTAL HAS BEEN UTTERLY DISGUSTING. They put me and my mother in a 2018 Nissan Rogue when here we are a few weeks shy of 2024. When you turned the wheel it made a horrible sound, the charging ports didn't work, the trunk didn't open and when you were at a stop light or idling it would shake and sputter. So I decided to drive 45 minutes back to the airport to get something better. Upon doing so they seemed to be annoyed with me. So after feeling that way I didn't want to complain when the car they exchanged with REEKED LIKE CIGARETTES. Me and my mother decided to just go buy some air fresheners and deal with it. We never mentioned the smell and now I 100% regret it. A few days after returning from Vacation I check my credit card and notice they charged me $400 dollars. I call customer service and am told I was charged that for a "cleaning fee for smoking in the vehicle" so I am now in the process of trying to dispute this charge. I have asked several times to see the notes from the previous person that rented the car to see if it was noted about it smelling like smoke and was told they aren't allowed to give me that information. DISGUSTING SCAMMING COMPANY.

Had the choice of picking which vehicle I would like to drive. The Nissan Rogue that I was given had 54,000 plus miles and shook when driven above 60 miles per hour. It had a number of door dings which concerned me before I drove off the lot. The attendant was helpful in reassuring me that none of the blemishes identified would register as damage that I caused when returned.

I would rent from Fox again but I’d be way more likely to rent from Fox if there was a way to use their car for toll roads on only the days when you’re planning to use it on those roads instead of paying for toll usage for the entire duration of the trip. Having to pay for the entire duration even though I only wanted to use tolls for one day meant that the cost was much higher and the value not really that great.

I think the company is ridiculous. Only 3/4 quarters of a tank of gas a they considered that full . I was hit with a ton of BS hidden fees . The car for the money was a disgrace .

First, the line at the counter was ridiculous. Should not take that long for people who reserve a car ahead of time. Secondly, the online quote was deceiving. By the time I paid at the counter it was double the price. For the price I paid I should’ve received something nicer than a basic Chevy equinox. Plus the car seats were junk. What a joke!

The truck was nice. Newer. Good features. The issues were on drop off and pickup. Had undocumented damage on pickup. Thankfully I noticed it and brought the attendant out. Also the truck only had a quarter tank on pickup which wasn't the end of the world but trying to get it returned at a quarter tank... Other issue was corporate charging me an extra day not knowing if the vehicle was returned on time or not. Which it was. The office was closed due to the hurricane.

I tried 4 different cars because each car had an issue. Two cars reeked of smoke, one had a smashed in back fender, and the last had sand and trash all over the floor board including 11 used water and soda bottles strewn around the interior of the car. The Avis agents were accommodating in switching cars but it was a terrible experience having to walk back and forth to the counter and car each time. It took over an hour to finally get into a car. They also didn’t escalate to a manager until I asked for one when we pulled the car up to show them all of the trash. The manager was very friendly and helpful. He apologized for the trouble. The return was challenging as well. The signage was poorly done. I parked in one of the designated return spots and followed signs up 8 flights of stairs to the rooftop to find that I had been misdirected. I walked back downstairs and ultimately found the return desk on the ground floor. The agent asked me where I parked and told me I had to move the car the rooftop. I told her the signs directed me to park in the designated spots side the garage which were clearly marked as Avis return spots but she insisted I move and that the car was now late. She said the signs were wrong and need to be removed. When I expressed displeasure with the poor signage and waste of time the agent told me I could call customer service. I had to go back upstairs and drive the car all the way to the top of the garage. The process was inefficient and frustrating.

The price was attractive, until they nickel and dime you for everything including wanting to sell you glass insurance by saying you are responsible for chips in the glass and they list an unrealistic price chart you will be charged for a chip. Car was a mess, full of sand on the floors and seats. Office wasn’t clean at all and they do not have enough staff. Expect to wait 1.5 hours for a car.

If you rent from this company have your insurance info with you and I mean the page that shows you have collision coverage because your insurance card is not going to work for them when they try to sell you there insurance. Be prepared to wait. One guy had to cancel his rental car and get an Uber it was that bad the day I rented from them. The gentleman that assisted me at the counter was very nice but can't say the same for all.

I rented a Camry or similar, and when I got to the counter I was basically forced into a hybrid Camry. When I proceeded to tell the woman behind the desk that I did not rent a hybrid and I’d prefer not to drive one, she cut me off and argued that “it’s not an actual hybrid that’s just what they call it.” I wasn’t in the mood to get into it that morning, so I took it since it wasn’t going to be for long and I can assure you it was a hybrid. My point is that while “or similar” may not matter, real gas cars vs hybrids do. I’ll spend extra to not use them again.

I would have liked more accurate price quoting. Price was listed as $240 for a "special class car." I was offered the lowest level compact they had. On top of that, I was informed the actual price for rental would be THREE TIMES as much as I had already paid. When I inquire about canceling my reservation, the clerk said that would be okay, but they would not refund the $240 I had already paid. Poor customer service, feeling scammed by hidden fees and forced into paying them to avoid losing my money. Will never rent here again, would not recommend this company to anyone.

Horrible - do not book with NextCar. They denied my car insurance because I was not the primary policyholder. I have full coverage insurance, so there was no logistical reason to deny it. The supplemental insurance cost as much as the rental itself. I was never told at the time of booking that I would be forced to use their insurance if I wasn’t the primary policyholder. I was only told so 24 hours out from my booking. I’m actively trying to get a refund for this.

I will never rent from this company again. They get you in the fine print with their insane insurance requirements, forcing you to purchase their coverage which is 3x the cost of the rental. They are also poorly located about 20 min from the rental car terminal at the airport. When they drop you off, they do not take you to the departures terminal, so you have to take another team.

The first car I got had expired plates. You have to pay for toll activation if you don’t it’s $25 a toll. The rental car price was good but all the add ons added up to another $100 so wasn’t such a great deal. And $2000 deposit if you don’t take their insurance

When I went to pickup my car, I had to wait ~1 hour to speak with someone at the desk. The agent I spoke to at the desk lied to me and said that I cannot use my personal auto insurance and had to use their plan. I call their corporate number later and the confirmed that agent was incorrect and refunded my money spent on the insurance. The car they had reserved for me was stuck behind several cars on the lot and inaccessible. Because of this they tried to give me another vehicle in the same class. The replacement they picked had visible damage/dent to the multiple panels, doors, and bumper. I started documenting all the damage in detail and taking pictures, the agent started getting visibly annoyed. He ended up providing me with a different car in the end. When I came time to drop off the vehicle, the lot nearly full and there was a line extending into the street just to enter the lot. I'm still waiting to deposit to be returned and I anticipating that I will need to call their corporate office again. This was an extremely poor experience through and through. I will never rent from Mexrentacar ever again, and I will never recommend their services to anyone.

The vehicle was perfectly fine. Everything other than that and the shuttle driver was terrible. Not able to reach the property. Number listed is in Miami. $2500 deposit hold for 3 weeks despite full coverage insurance is unheard of. Facility is inadequate, seats are in disrepair. Agent is unfriendly. I would highly recommend dropping this company from your vendor list. While my experience panned out, two of the three other groups in their office woth us that morning, were not able to rent for whatever reason. Both were very upset.

Cons:

A warning at least would have been nice about the lack of staffing or the possible extended wait times. The fact that I set a pick up time and expected to go to the counter to get my car, but waited in line for over an hour instead was frustrating to say the least. I have appreciated an offered substantial upgrade or refund for the inconvenience.

Do not use this company. I have used kayak and priceline often with no issues. After a slightly delayed flight, waiting for the Routes shuttle and waiting in a slow line at Routes I was denied my reserved car because they hold it for ONE hour. That was not in my paperwork anywhere. Other people were angry in line (which is why the line took so long) because they require to see your insurance declaration page, which no one had. There were people trying to call their insurance agents. The people ahead of me walked away without a car. One man was asked to leave because he was angry that he was not aware of the insurance requirement. I was denied a car, had to take the shuttle back to the airport where my daughter and her baby were waiting for me to pick them up in the rental car. VERY poor experience.

If you do not arrive within 1-2 hours of your reservation time, they give your car away and don't have backups for you! EVERYONE in that arrived on my shuttle were in the same boat; they didn't have any of our vehicles; they were simply telling everyone that their reservation is cancelled, we'll receive our money back (eventually), and we just need to go elsewhere to find a car last minute, at night. IT WAS A DISASTER! Thank God one of the guys working there took pity on my group since I had my 80 year old parents with me, and managed to find another vehicle for us. It was smaller than what we rented, but at least it was a vehicle. I'm thankful to the employee who bent over backwards to find us a vehicle, but York's policy of re-renting everyone's cars if they are not there within 1-2 hours is CRAZY! Everyone else got screwed. It was an awful experience. Oh, it it took HOURS for all of that to get settled. 0/5 stars.

Absolutely terrible company. If I could give it zero stars, I would. I have asked for a refund and had to go with a different rental upon landing in Florida. They tried to take a $3000 deposit even though we already had external insurance. They advertise that they're in the airport which they are not, and they didn't even offer a shuttle - they told us to Uber. Upon looking at reviews, many people said that they kept and wouldn't return the deposits claiming unreal damages. They also tried to do additional toll charges and other random shady things, that they communicated through text. Also, when they asked for the $3000 deposit, and we tried to escalate it since it was completely unheard of, they didn't say anything and changed the contract back to $500 without telling us (to delete the evidence). Terrible, terrible, terrible company. Pay more and go with a reputable service.

Airport shuttle from airport: Good communication, minimal wait. They called my insurance company to make sure I was covered. I already knew I was, so that was a time waster. Our car 4dr Mercedes was clean however, it was dented in 3-4 places and had a broken headlight cover. Interior smelled like smoke. The car worked and did its job getting around. Passenger window would stick or not work going up it had to be rolled up from the driver side. When I got the car, I told them when I return I will be here around 6:30pm. We can get a shuttle back to the airport correct? I was told yes. Upon returning the car at 6:30pm we were told they were closed (closed but people were still there) and they wouldn’t drive us to the airport. He said his coworker explained they were closed at 6pm and don’t do shuttles after 6pm. Kayak and the rental company promises airport shuttles. We were not given instructions on how to drop the car off if there had been no one there. We were also told our 6:30pm arrival wouldn’t be a problem for a shuttle. The employee took us to the airport in his personal car which was spotless and kind of him. This has soured my experience with both Kayak and the AZ rental company

The only car rental company that didn't accept our Liberty Mutual California liability limits. The total cost was over double the quoted rate. Also we got pulled over by the police due to expired plates.

Shuttle from Airport was clean, updated, and driver was courteous Phone number was answered at least ,50 percent of time by agent at the local office Downsides... There was an Extra airport surcharge that was NOT disclosed on the initial pricing for rental. I received email from company, said deposit for car was 250 with major CC, 500 with debit card, and as much as 2000 with FL residence. When requested insurance, stated policy, which was NOT disclosed in email, was that to use own Auto policy, deposit increased to 2000 for rental. Advertised vehicle was Toyota Corolla or similar... Recueved Mitsubishi hatchback... Was minimalist vehicle. On day of dropoff, front desk staff was ALSO shuttle driver, so under staffing for service also an issue.

This was a scam. They were requesting that a customer have libility insurance of >$500 000. The other problem is that they did not have a class of car I paid for, but 2 classes bellow it and they told me that is what I can get for my money. I asked to talk to manager, but they told me they do not have one. I did not use their"services".

When I arrived at Tampa Airport, I called multiple times and got a rerouted to different numbers. One number I called about 10 times with no answer. None of the people I did speak with could tell me when a shuttle would arrive to transport my family and I to the rental company. After an hour I gave up and got a rental from another company. I spoke with 2 other people in line for another company who claimed the same thing happened. 0/10 would not recommend.

Firstly, the staff was polite and professional; nice guys. They were on time in shuttling us to and from the airport (since they were off airport location but only minutes away so not inconvenient at all). Both the shuttle and car rental were clean. The registration process was easy and efficient. I would totally use them again HOWEVER, I don’t recall their website stating that the price I paid was just to reserve the car. When we got there they asked for our insurance and if it didn’t state we had 300k on Property Damage Liability (which I never heard a company having this requirement) we had to purchase theirs, no way around that. Although I had purchased extra rental coverage through a third party site which was pointless because this car rental company didn’t accept. So the car that was originally 30$ for the day ended up being almost 110$ after adding the sun pass and additional insurance. We were on a schedule to get our trip moving along smoothly so I just bit the bullet and used their services but this felt like a bait and switch tactic which is why I have a bad review. Too bad because I liked everything else about it. It would’ve just been easier, convenient and cheaper had I just used a well known rental company right inside the airport.
