Vista’s general terrain is hilly, with some winding roads and inclines, and features a mix of road types, ranging from wide boulevards to smaller residential streets. Based on this, for navigating the city comfortably, a mid-sized sedan or SUV is recommended for car rental, as they offer better handling on the hilly terrain and ample space for passengers. These vehicles also provide good clearance for any uneven surfaces. Overall, a reliable and versatile car will ensure a smooth and enjoyable driving experience in Vista.
Generally, the speed limits in Vista vary depending on the zone you are driving in and the road you are driving on. In most residential neighborhoods and city streets, the speed limit ranges from 25 to 35 mph. On larger roads and boulevards, the speed limit can range from 40 to 50 mph.

Cons:
Due to holiday weekend, office said the car hadn't been cleaned or gassed. Was given the choice to take as is or wait. Took it as is. Was told since given to me empty, I didn't need to fill the tank and was told a note was made. When checked in, the note didn't transfer, had to talk to Cust Svc.10.0 Wonderful

Everything was wonderful, excellent staff. If your going to leave a car there you will have to park on the street, that’s the only downside8.0 Very Good
Mar 2018
Pros:
ease of online booking and pick-up.Cons:
...not being acknowledged in waiting line, like others that came after me. Other than that no complaint. If I was in a hurry though, I would probably complain about the 25 min wait.7.6 Good
Oct 2017
Pros:
The pick up was fast and easy.Cons:
My pick up time was noon but the store closed at noon. Luckily, I called before heading to Hertz and found out I needed to leave earlier than expected. Also, I called to Leo the car an extra day and Hert charged me an additional $10 just to change the return date. I think I’ll look to other companies before using Hertz again.2.0 Poor
Jun 2017
Cons:
I paid for my rental and insurance on line and scheduled to pick the car at 12 noon.When i arrived 5 minutes after 12pm i didnt realize the location would be closed at 12pm. I dont understand how I could be able to schedule a rental at the time the location is closed. And if purchased on line why wouldn't a location have the informaion that there was a rental to be pick up. I was not given a confirmation ny Hertz after I booked my renral or reminder when the time was close. I was asked to call other locations to see if they were open but all, other than the airports, were closed and due ti it being a holiday I would not be able to get a car till 2 days after. I was forced to cancel my rental and insurance and make other plans of transportation which was a huge let down and inconvenience. I am not pleased at all and was baffled that the costomer service was not up to a greater standard. I had to make all my other arrangements myself and would not be able to use my same purchase at a different location. Instead i would have had to make a new purchase. And since a refund would not be available until 5 to 7 days i was not able to do that either.2.0 Poor
Apr 2017
Cons:
Terrible experience. I reserved the car, paid in advance. Was told by Hertz email that my pickup time was 12 noon; arrived at 12:10 to pickup car. The office was closed and nothing I could do. I wasn't told that office closed at noon; I should have check that I guess. But don't understand why I'm given a pickup time that is right at office closure?!? Called Hertz trying to get a car from another office, but nothing could be done. I canceled the purchase; I'm waiting for my reimbursement. I drove to local Enterprise rental office and rented a car. Proceeded on down the road on my vacation.2 locations in Vista

Daniel at the San Marcos location was so helpful and personable. If everyone at Enterprise is like him, I will continue to use them when I need to rent a car in the future.Cons:

May 2019
Pros:
The staff was very friendly and helpful. The pickup and drop-off were super easy.Cons:
Enterprise told me the $9 insurance I bought at booking online was no good and I would have to purchase theirs (for $20) if I wanted that coverage. They even called the booking insurance a "scam" and suggested I call back and request a refund for it. So I got scammed by either Kayak or them.10.0 Wonderful

Jul 2016
Pros:
The service especially at the drop off in LA was very friendly and good. The car was excellent.Cons:
KAYAK, you sold me an insurance, that Budget did not accept. That's VERY BAD! So I had to pay twice, because my first insurance was useless. How can you do that??????? And, again VERY BAD: The adress for drop off was wrong - 22 miles away from LAX. A fault of the Budget agency in Vista, I think. Fortunately, I followed the signs and found the drop off-station close to the airport.7.9 Good

Some Vista car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend being aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Vista.
Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a non-deductible option to your Vista car hire.
