KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Virginia Beach

  • Ditch the crowded public transportation and jump into a rental car, which is the most comfortable way to explore both Virginia Beach and its surrounding areas. A car will allow you to freely explore the coastal area and some of the city's best parks, such as First Landing State Park and Neptune's Park. Drive your rental car to nearby Norfolk to see the USS Wisconsin, plus the city of Richmond is only 45 minutes away.
  • All the major car rental companies can be found at Norfolk International Airport (ORF), which is approximately 30 minutes away from Virginia Beach. The car rental desks are located in the Arrivals Hall, which is on the Level 1 of the terminal. Many counters operate from early in the day (4:30 a.m.) until late at night (1 a.m.). Vehicle pickup is on Level G, and rental car return is on Level 2.
  • Virginia Beach is pretty straightforward to navigate, and the best time to visit (weather-wise) is from June to August. That's also peak season, however, so be prepared to find lots of tourists and generally more people on the roads. Two-way traffic must also keep to its side of the road, as a general rule. Drinking driving laws are strict, with the maximum blood alcohol limit being 0.08.
  • Morning rush hour usually takes place between 6 a.m. and 9 a.m., and evening rush hour happens between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. The evening peak hour may start slightly earlier around the shipyard and naval base as workers get off around 3:30 p.m. The Hampton Roads Bridge Tunnel (HRBT) connects the Virginia Beach area to the north side of Hampton Roads, which is where most traffic jams happen, so plan your trip accordingly.
  • Book your rental car in Virginia Beach at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Full-size rental cars in Virginia Beach are around 33% cheaper than other car types, on average

Pickup/dropoff was not where scheduled when paid for. Was called day before with location changed. Back off vehicle had flat tire and an interior panel laying in it, no washer fluid. Slde sliding door did not work properly. Had to be opened from inside most of the trip. Was told I could take it to airport to exchange no offer to get me another delivered. When complaint was filed before I left for trip was told I would get a partial refund. Have not seen it. Budget apparently really means budget customer care. Would never use them again!!!!

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

There was no car available when I showed up. The one person working there did not help me find another Budget location with a car, so I had to go to Enterprise and pay double the amount due to the increased rates of same day rental reservations. I won’t use Kayak for car rentals again either.

My friend paid for the rental because I forgot my credit card and then I went back up there and switched out her card for my card and removed her from the reservation. I did not want her card being charged. She was charged 1 cent and I was told her card was removed and they charged this to remove the original hold. I was assured when I dropped the car back off that it was my card being charged. Nevertheless, my friend called me and she was charged. I wasted my time going all the way back up there the day of the rental pick up for nothing since this happened. Very disappointed.

Pros:

Nothing at all. Unacceptable and unprofessional.

Cons:

We received a confirmation with location to pick up the car. When we arrived the rep stated that they didnt have the reservation and the site we booked it through was not legitimate. My husband showed her the information amd she stated it was not a reservation. They ended up sending us to another enterprise and made us pay 140.00 more. We had no choice as we were traveling with children for a youth tournament and needed transportation. Unacceptable.

Pros:

Staff was nice; pick up and drop off were easy. Car was good for what we needed.

Cons:

The car wasn’t luxurious- but I didn’t pay for a luxury model, so that’s definitely not Enterprise’s fault.

At least they called to say they had no cars. Just as I entered their parking lot.

Cons:

Have inventory online reflect reality. They were no cars as promised.

There were unexpected fees, and things not explained. I went to pick up the car but wasn’t allowed to use my debit card- I have no credit card and there were no other options or help offered. Luckily one of my passengers had a credit card. The toll system wasn’t explained and the fee for toll charges is outrageous. The rep at pickup was nice, but not hugely helpful. The rep at drop off was very good.

It was terrible, the customer service was poor. Our car broke down and they wouldn’t compensate us with a new one. Our reservation got screwed up so they said we had to rent a whole new car instead of just doing a vehicle exchange. Me receipt said jan 13 - jan 17 but for some reason the customer service reps kept saying that the vehicle was due on jan 14 and although I showed them my receipt with the proper information, they made us pay for a new car. And on top of that, they were rude as can be. This was the worst car rental experience of my life. I’m never using Avis again.

1) The car needed new wiper blades and it was hard to see in the rain due to bad streaking on the windshield. 2) All the glass on the inside was dirty and had a hazy film on it.

This location was top notch! They were very helpful, and upgraded our car size because that was the only car they had available at that location. The young man that checked the car out to me was superb very kind. We extended our rental 3 days and they gave us the same price. I will definitely rent from them again! Way to go Virginia Beach (Virginia Beach Blvd) location! Thank you!
