KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Venice

  • The advantages of choosing car hire in Venice are many, as immersing yourself in the culture can only really be done from the freedom of your own vehicle. Venice is located on the Gulf Coast of Florida and is surrounded by beautiful beaches, nature reserves, and other tourist destinations. Having a car allows you to easily visit places like Siesta Key, Sarasota, and Myakka River State Park, which may be a bit more challenging to reach by public transportation. You can also go on shopping sprees at the numerous malls and then carry your goods in the boot, which is not convenient on public transport.
  • When collecting your Venice car hire at Sarasota Bradenton Intl Airport (SRQ), you will need to catch a shuttle to the Rental Car Terminal, which is a separate facility located near the airport. The Rental Car Terminal is easily accessible from the main terminal building, and there are shuttle services available to transport passengers between the two locations. The distance between Venice and Sarasota Bradenton International Airport (SRQ) is approximately 34 km (21 miles) and will take about 30 minutes, if no traffic.
  • Take note when using car hire in Venice that the road infrastructure is well-developed and maintained, offering generally good driving conditions. The main roads in Venice include Interstate 75, which runs north-south and provides convenient access to other cities in Florida. There are also several state and local roads that connect different parts of the city, including US 41, known as the Tamiami Trail, which is a major road running through Venice.
  • In terms of traffic, Venice is not as heavily congested as larger cities like Miami or Tampa. Difficulties you might encounter when using your car hire in Venice are congestion at tourist peak seasons. During peak tourist seasons or events, traffic volumes can increase, especially in areas close to the beaches or popular attractions. Tourist season is during the winter months, when the weather is mild and pleasant. The exact timing may vary, but generally, the peak tourist season is from January to April. One unique aspect of driving in Venice is the presence of numerous roundabouts, so familiarise yourself with the rules about merging and yielding to other vehicles.

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Venice?

    The type of car you choose for your car hire in Venice should suit your itinerary. Since Venice is a relatively small city with narrow streets and tight parking spaces, it's advisable to opt for a compact or mid-sized car. This will make manoeuvring easier and parking more convenient. If you plan on exploring further out of the city, then rather opt for a larger SUV-type car that has air conditioning, as it can get very hot in Venice.

  • What’s the speed limit in Venice?

    The speed limits in Venice are enforced, so drive with caution and watch for changing road networks. In most residential areas and in the city, the speed limit is 25 mph. This lower speed limit is in place to prioritise the safety of pedestrians and reduce the risk of accidents in areas with high foot traffic. The speed limit on multi-lane urban roads can range from 35 to 45 mph, and on rural roads and highways, speed limits can range from 55 to 70 mph, depending on the specific road and its characteristics. Interstate highways generally have a speed limit of 65 to 75 mph.

  • Where are the best places to park in Venice?

    On Venice Avenue, you'll find several car parks that provide convenient access to the downtown area. The hourly rates are usually around $1 (£0.77) per hour.

Venice has a couple of public parking garages, such as the Centennial Park Parking Garage and the Venice Theatre Parking Garage. These garages usually charge an hourly rate, with the first hour being free or at a reduced rate. Throughout Venice, you'll find metered street parking with rates that are on average around $1 (£0,77) per hour.

Dan, Apr 2021

KAYAK

Pros:

Two days before scheduled pickup local Hertz called and canceled our prepaid 10 day rental agreement. By that time there were NO vehicles available for rent in Venice, Florida due to Spring break and Easter holiday. Local personnel said they had no vehicles though there were 7 vans sitting in their parking lot. When I questioned them they said they were all “broken”. Local personnel called their fellow employees liars, said corporate Hertz was terrible and to blame and said there nothing they could do about it and nobody else I could talk to. I also called Hertz customer service and they likewise said there was no one I could talk to about this cancelation at the last minute. Extremely disappointed in Kayak and Hertz. Will not use again!

Cons:

Everything!

Pros:

There was nothing I liked about my experience at Hertz. Their team absolutely do not care about the customer.

Cons:

I wish the company would be honest and reliable. They did not honor a reservation that was prepaid. The company recommended me to go to Budget. I must say Budget did what Hertz could have done. Very disappointed in Hertz.

When we got there they did not have our truck. Two others had reservations for trucks as well. The lady said she didn't know when they might get any trucks...why was the reservation allowed to be booked if no trucks? Bait and switch at its finest. Never renting from Avis again.
