It's a good idea to read over your policy though as there are some exemptions. If the information isn't there, head over to our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Gulf Shores?
Reasonably priced, easy to operate and delivering great mileage, it's not surprising compact vehicles are the most commonly booked home in Gulf Shores. Tour this city in one of these and you'll be able to fit into tight parking spaces and easily dart around busy streets. A compact is ideal for city breaks or shorter road trips. But they're not your only options. Go even smaller with an economy model or bigger with an intermediate, a full-size or premium — the choice is yours!

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Gulf Shores?
If you're 21 and over, you can rent a vehicle in Gulf Shores. Be mindful that most home companies will charge an extra fee if you're a young driver, which is meant to cover the higher damage or accident risk involved. Also, young drivers usually aren't permitted to rent larger or luxury models of cars. Carefully read the terms and conditions before you book to avoid any surprises when it's time to pick up the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Gulf Shores?
Most home companies will ask for these two things — your driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you'd like to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.
What is the cheapest car rental in Gulf Shores?
The lowest rate for a car rental in Gulf Shores within the past seven days was just AU$88 per day. The second best deal to be had was AU$91. These rates were available on Expedia, with a holiday home starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Gulf Shores?
Yes, and you're sure to find your ideal set of wheels on our long-term car rental deals page. Simply enter your trip dates and we'll show you incredible options from numerous trusted companies.
Where can I find a Gulf Shores car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a young driver looking to rent a car in Gulf Shores, you'll need to check the terms and conditions of the various car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25  some may not. There may be additional costs if you're between 21 and 24 years old. To avoid any nasty surprises at the home counter, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
Can I drive in Gulf Shores with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the U.S, you may be required to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S., know that you'll also have to show your current valid 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 driver's license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the company you're renting from before your trip to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your home vehicle. Please read the details before you book!
