Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Santa Mónica car reservation?
We've all been faced with times when plans get upended. That's why we offer your money back on the majority of rentals if you let us know six hours in advance of picking up the car. Don't forget to double-check your rental agreement — there are some instances where it's not available. Can't find the details there? Our Customer Service Portal is always here to help.
What types of cars can I rent in Santa Mónica?
Whatever meets your needs! Go for a mid-size or full-size if you're travelling with the family, or scale up to a premium for a top-of-the-range ride.

Affordable and with awesome mileage, they're a good match for solo travellers, couples or anyone else who doesn't require a large amount of room. They're especially suited to city driving. Slipping into narrow parking spots will be a walk in the park!

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Santa Mónica?
Drivers with a valid licence aged 21 and over can rent a vehicle in Santa Mónica. While some providers may be willing to rent to drivers younger than 21, a fee will be added. Find out what age range the young driver surcharge applies to, and the cost, before locking in your ride. Providers also restrict the categories of cars available to young drivers. Higher age limits apply for large vehicles like premium SUVs and luxury models.
What do you need to rent a car in Santa Mónica?
While terms and conditions may differ between car rental outlets, the basics are your driver's licence and a credit card in your name. You don't need to take out the company's auto insurance. However, proof of alternative coverage may be required.
What side of the road do you drive on in Santa Mónica?
Vehicles drive on the right and pass on the left in Peru — the same as in the States. Road-tripping around Santa Mónica won't be exactly like home, though. You should familiarise yourself with the local road rules.

Where can I find a Santa Mónica car rental if I am younger than 25?
