Just back from fab two weeks in Orlando, rented car through Alamo, car was Crysler Town and country mini van and was brilliant. It cost about $35 to fill the tank! the ride was so smooth. There was plenty of space for four cases in the boot with the hand luggage sat on top of that. My relative got us a sat nav to use over there and i was so glad of it, we ventured to the beach on the west coast aswell as Busch gardens on the East coast. I am so glad we hired a car as getting to our villa by bus every night would of been very time consuming and hard with tired children. The hire company were friendly and there was no queue when we got there, they also did not ask for credit card deposit of £500 like the travel agents told us they would, just fuel as it came with a full tank. When i go back i will certainly use them again.

If You Stop at a Villa....100% agree you need a Car...Hotels espically at I Drive slighty different...

Can anyone tell me if I need a photo I.D license to hire a car in Florida? I only have the old paper type license.

We've just come back from Orlando and the in-laws hired a car out there from Alamo with their old style licence without any difficulties.

Try Netflights for car hire but book it through a cashback site like TopCashBack. We've booke d a Dodge Charger from SFB airport for 3 weeks late August for 375GBP all inclusive.
