Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Juan Santamaria Intl. Airport (SJO)?
Take your pick of a good selection of rental car suppliers just a short drive from the airport. Alamo, Budget and Sixt are popular with travelers. Ace and Economy are a couple of other reliable options.
What happens if I need to cancel my Santa Maria car reservation?
We get that having the freedom to change your plans is important. That’s why most prepaid reservations offer a full refund if you notify us six hours in advance of the pickup time. It’s still good to go through your rental policy though because there are some exceptions. If the information isn’t there, head to our Customer Service Portal.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Santa Maria with Expedia?
Getting the best deal on your Santa Maria rental car is a cinch with Expedia. Choose your preferred car class, add in a few more details and compare prices across big-name suppliers. Why not add flights and hotels to your booking? You’ll unlock terrific discounts when you create a vacation package.
What do you need to rent a car in Santa Maria?
Any rental company you select will require two things — a valid driver’s license and credit card. If you choose to opt out of the supplier’s insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to collect your car.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Santa Maria?
Whether you plan to stop in Santa Maria or venture beyond, you can book a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip dates and pick-up/drop-off locations and we’ll help you find incredible long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Santa Maria car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to look up the age policy of the Santa Maria rental suppliers you’re interested in. If you’re under 25 years of age, some outlets will charge extra fees. It’s best to know about this before arriving at the desk so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so be sure to do your research.
