Frequently asked questions

How do I get a Puerto Vallarta Budget car rental at a great price?

We try to get you the best rates, whether you reserve your car. However, getting well ahead of your trip can help you save even more. Make sure to not add an additional driver and go over the mileage policy to avoid any unexpected fees.

What do I need to bring when I get my vehicle in Puerto Vallarta?

Be sure to bring your driver's permit and a credit card in your name.

What's Puerto Vallarta's minimum age to rent a car?

Budget's minimum age to rent a car in Puerto Vallarta is 21. Make sure to review Budget's policies, as there could be added fees if you are under 25 or for higher category vehicles in particular.

What kind of Budget rental car should I get for my trip to Puerto Vallarta?

That depends on your needs and what you'll be doing when you visit Puerto Vallarta. Economy or compact cars are easier to park and good for short commutes. If you are traveling with a bigger group, then a SUV or mid-size vehicle will have more room for everyone's luggage and offer a more comfortable ride. Those looking for a dash of extravagance on their Puerto Vallarta getaway can choose the premium category for a car like an Audi A4 or Cadillac XTS or similar.

Do I need insurance when I rent a car in Mexico?

In Mexico you do need to have insurance before you rent. You can buy additional insurance through Budget for your trip, if you think your insurance won't cover you while traveling through Mexico. Although many of the major card issuers, like Visa and MasterCard, provide some coverage, there are usually restrictions. For example, you may not be covered if you book a larger or luxury vehicle. Make sure to check credit card issuer's policy before you decide. Additionally, as a U.S. citizen, you can also add on Collision Damage Coverage through CarRentals.com at checkout.

Does Budget require a deposit at the time of booking my rental car?

Budget requires a deposit when you book your rental car. Budget will block the deposit on your credit once you book your rental for your trip. Please be aware that the deposit may vary greatly based on the make and model of the rental.

Do I have to return my Budget rental with a full tank?

We encourage a full to full policy. You should receive your vehicle with full tank, and you should return it with a full tank. If you want to save some money, it is best to find a gas station before you return the car to Budget.

Do I need unlimited miles when I rent a car in Puerto Vallarta?

Puerto Vallarta certainly has its charms, but you may want to take to the road after you've checked off all the activities in Puerto Vallarta.

Does Puerto Vallarta Budget offer one-way car rentals?

Budget typically offers one-way rentals. You may find it easier to return your vehicle at a different Budget. Don't forget there is typically an additional charge when you opt for one-way.
