KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in La Quinta
- Driving car rentals in La Quinta is a wonderful way to see this resort city located in the Coachella Valley in Southern California. In La Quinta car rentals, you can visit people and places according to your own timetable. You can see local sites including the Living Desert Zoo and Gardens, La Quinta Museum, and Indian Canyons. Car rentals in La Quinta give you the freedom to drive east to Joshua Tree National Park, southwest to San Diego, or northwest to Los Angeles.
- Located about 20 miles northwest of La Quinta, Palm Springs International Airport (PSP) is a convenient place for getting car rentals in La Quinta. At PSP, you can easily find the car rental counters right across from the baggage claim carousels. The rental cars are parked just outside the baggage claim. When it is time to return your La Quinta car rentals, drive them to the same parking stalls where you picked them up.
- Roads in La Quinta are wide, quiet, and well-maintained. Also, in general, you do not see much traffic congestion in La Quinta. However, keep in mind that La Quinta is in the desert. Therefore, those driving car rentals in La Quinta should make sure you have a good pair of sunglasses. Also, make sure that you have a lot of water with you in the car. And, if you will be heading out on a desert highway, make sure your gas tank is at least half full when you leave since gas stations are much fewer and farther between once you are in the desert. Also, if you have another driver with you, change drivers frequently, since desert driving can become mesmerizing.
- When driving car rentals in La Quinta, you might face a few challenges once you get out onto the highways and freeways that connect you to other desert cities in Coachella Valley. In April, during the Coachella Music and Arts Festival, many roads in and around La Quinta will be closed. So, if you are renting a car in April in La Quinta, be aware of road closures. Also, as you are driving north on Highway 111, the road narrows in Cathedral City and traffic becomes congested. Also, drivers in Coachella Valley are notorious for not using their blinkers and for not coming to complete stops at stop signs. So, drive defensively, ready for people to change lanes unexpectedly, and at a stop sign, expect other cars to simply do rolling stops.
- Book your car hire in La Quinta at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Standard hire cars in La Quinta are around 11% more expensive than other car types, on average

Norman, May 2021
Pros:
Did not have car I ordered. Tried to get me to take smaller car. I refused. Was given a hard time by salesman and then he went away. Tried to speak to manager, was ignored. Staff very unfriendly. I had to leave without a car. Was a disaster. I went to Avis and was treated as a customer should be. Rented a car to my choice for 2 weeks.Cons:
more honest treatment of a customer. A manager that would listen to my problem. A less hostile attitude. Have used Enterprise in the past, would never use again.Dollar

They completely bailed on me! They let me book a car but told me in the morning they didn't have any available. Instead of getting one for me and calling back, they closed for the weekend.10,0 Wonderful
