Booking your Stuart hire car online saves you from the long queues at the airport counters.
  • Generally, using car hire in Stuart is an easy and safe experience because of the city's well-developed roads. Other drivers are typically less impatient and strictly follow traffic regulations. So, be sure to pay attention and abide by all the traffic light regulations and speed limits. The city has a zero-tolerance policy on drinking and driving. Therefore, you should be mindful of any alcohol in your system when driving your Stuart hire car.

Typically, you should look for a smaller car when travelling alone with little luggage. In that case, you should book a mini or economy. However, travellers on a family holiday should look for an intermediate or standard. Alternatively, an SUV is recommended if you plan to visit off-road areas, just check with your hiring agency that this is allowed.

  • What is the speed limit in Stuart?

    When utilising car hire in Stuart, beware of the varying speed limits from one area to another. The speed limit in municipal areas is 30 mph, but the speed limit on rural interstates is 70 mph. When driving your Stuart hire car in built-up areas, the limit is 25 mph. Always pay attention to when you should slow down, especially when approaching roundabouts and populated areas. The city has posted speed limits which are enacted strictly.

  • Where are the best places to park in Stuart?

    When driving your hire car in Stuart, you’ll ultimately need car parks. Finding car parks in the city is challenging due to limited options. So, avoid the hassle of looking for car parks by booking a Stuart hotel with parking provided. Most hotels have car parks and allow free parking to visitors staying on their property. Consider Courtyard by Marriott Stuart, Hampton Inn & Suites Stuart, Best Western Downtown Stuart, Old Colorado Inn-Hotel or Comfort Suites Stuart-Hutchinson Island. But if you opt for garage or metered parking, consider downtown to stay closer to the city's lively nightlife. Again, parking your Stuart hire car downtown allows you to easily access the city's freeways, accommodations and business centres. Generally, parking in Stuart costs around $2 (about £1.54) per hour.

Cons:

It took several attempts to acquire roadside assistance for a flat tire, which was flat but still holding air when we picked up the vehicle. We were traveling, but were told we either have to return home or go to another facility which was far to get the tire changed. We got no help from the dealership where we rented the vehicle, and it took three attempts to finally get the help we needed.

We checked several rental companies through Kayak. I tried to be careful to always switch back to "one-way trip" mode, but I must have missed my last time. We were charged $300 extra for our mistake.

The staff at Miami and PSL branches were very helpful and accommodating. I had some trouble returning the car due to some confusing signage, but they went out of their way to stay late and support me so that I could drop the car off after hours. I really appreciate it!

For such a busy location, they run a very efficient service. The employees are also courteous, which should be a given, but is often the exception these days.

Cons:

When I arrived, the car I had rented wasn’t available so they sold me an upgrade, not for free but for $10 more per day. They charged me $150 to drop the car off at the airport. Two days into my trip, the car got a flat tire and i had to change, wait on hold for an hour, then bring the car to a different enterprise location to pick up a downgraded, filthy car. They didn’t change my rate from the upgraded amount and told me I had to take it up with the other office, after being on hold for ANOTHER hour I finally got someone to look at it. They then told me I couldn’t get the rate I had originally been quoted and I ended up paying the $60/day. Wont use again.
