Car hire - simple, easy, and affordable prices

We understand the importance of choosing the right pick-up location. With that said, Bookingauto strives to provide customers with the opportunity to collect a car from all desired locations in Sarasota, including the city centre, main railway stations, and the nearest airports. Thanks to such a large selection of rental points, our clients can book a car in Sarasota and pick it up at a convenient place for them.

What we can offer:

By contacting Bookingauto.com, customers can be sure that there is the right type of car waiting for them. For example, if one person or a small group of guests arrives in Sarasota, it makes sense for them to rent a Convertible Mercedes C cabrio from €96 per day. This presentable and comfortable car is offered for rent by sixt. When it comes to a family or a large company, the best choice may be a Minivan Mercedes Viano at a rate of €63 per day. Your trip will be pleasant and safe in this roomy car. For those who want some extra comfort and have the appropriate budget, budget is ready to offer a Business-class model - Nissan Maxima. A budget transport option for a journey would be a Seat Leon car, compact but quite convenient, the rental of which would cost about €16 per day.

How to minimize costs:

In order to avoid paying too much, plan to pick up the car and return it at the same time. Car rental fees are set for the entire rental day. Therefore, if you return the car after 25 hours, the payment will be calculated as 48 hours, or two full days. Likewise, if you use your rental car for more than 72 hours, you will pay for 96 hours of rent.

For your convenience, all points are sorted according to three criteria: car rental in the city, airports, and railway stations. Please note that prices and the number of cars offered may vary depending on the rental location.

Therefore, we recommend that you look at all offers at different points and compare prices before renting a car.

Average prices by car class

Convertible €42 / Day

How the price changes depending on the month

The highest demand for car rental in Sarasota occurs during the high tourist season - summer.

On average, the cost increases by 20-30% and the choice of available cars is also significantly reduced if you don’t book in advance.

For example, in July, the average price for the popular model VW Passat in Sarasota is €27 per day.

In autumn, the same car costs about €12 per day.

In the summer, prices for convertibles are especially high. As a guideline, a Mercedes C cabrio will cost €96 per day for the duration of the vacation period.

Among the economy classes, the most popular model in Sarasota is the Seat Leon. The rental price for such a car starts from €16 per day from sixt.

For lovers of comfortable driving, you will also have to pay an increased price for business class cars – a Nissan Maxima will cost about €76 per day.

With the arrival of autumn, demand gradually decreases and this is reflected in costs. For example, a Toyota Rav-4 at this time can be rented for just €40 per day.

Fans of exclusive car models also find it easier to fulfill their requests in the autumn months. For example, in Sarasota, you can easily rent a Porsche Cayenne to travel in style through the streets of the beautiful city. Rest assured that the memories of these drives will linger in your imagination for a long time.

Answers to popular questions about car rental in Sarasota

Question: What is included in the base rental price?

Answer: The car rental price in Sarasota usually includes unlimited mileage, basic CDW insurance and local VAT. Before booking, you can get acquainted with the full list of services included in the rental price by reading the rental conditions of your chosen car.

Question: Is it possible to rent a car in one destination and return it in another city?

Answer: You can pick up a car in Sarasota and return it in another city, but you will have to pay extra for this. When booking, find the option "Return in another location" in the search form and indicate the city in which you will return the car. However, this option is not available for all cars. The system will return eligible options to you in the search results. The indicated rental price in this case already includes an additional fee for returning the car in another city. In some circumstances, the need to return a car in another city may arise after the lease has been issued, i.e. during the use of the vehicle. In this case, you need to call the rental company directly at the phone number indicated on the voucher to come to an agreement and discuss the terms of the surcharge.

Question: How do I choose the perfect car for me?

Answer: The most popular cars in Sarasota are ones that fit into the Compact and Standard categories, including the Seat Leon and VW Passat models. If you want to choose a car that exactly matches your needs, try making a short list of your expectations. Think about your passengers and how comfortable they’ll be while driving. Check the volume of the boot, as well as safety and fuel economy features if that’s important to you.

Question: How do I find rent-a-car near me?

Answer: Click on the "Car rental near me" icon in the search form. The system will automatically determine your coordinates and suggest a number of available cars, starting with the ones closest to your location. However, check the exact address of the rental office before booking to ensure that the coordinates are accurate.

Question: What is the cheapest car rental company in Sarasota?

Answer: Traditional low-cost airlines in Sarasota are Budget, Thrifty and Last Minute.Often, though, well-known network companies offer promotions and super discounts, which can reach up to 70% off. At the same time, the quality of service remains high. To get the best deal, we encourage you to compare prices from a wide variety of options and offers. Check the prices of the leading companies on our website, choose the option that best suits your parameters, and you’ll be able to get the ideal car at the best price.
