Just bear in mind that some companies charge additional fees to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The fine print of each holiday home car you’re interested in should have all the details you need.
Can I drive in Merritt Island with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license issued in the United States, you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required, be aware that you’ll also have to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car rental website before you travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the United States, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car rental. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
