KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Plantation
- A rental car in Plantation is an ideal way of facilitating your tour to numerous must-visit attractions in the city. The Secret Woods Nature Center, located on State Rd 84, comes across as an ideal outdoor site with numerous trails to stroll and jog. You can also take a drive to Coral Springs Museum of Art on Coral Springs Drive with your rented car and enjoy hundreds of art pieces. For a break from Plantation’s warm weather, take a trip to Florida Panthers Ice Den. The establishment is a haven for ice skaters and campers. For glamorous beaches, boat canals, and great shopping, you can travel to Fort Lauderdale, a short drive from Plantation, via a vehicle from Plantation car rentals.
- The closest international airport to Plantation is Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International Airport, which operates approximately seven miles from the city. You can find a Rental Car Center near the airport’s entrance where Plantation car rentals like Avis, Budget, Enterprise, Hertz, and Thrifty offer services. You may use a Rental Car Shuttle bus to get to the center if you arrive at any Terminal. Its pick-up point is at the consolidated rental facility in Level 2. Miami International Airport, located about 24 miles from Plantation, also allows you to fly into the city. Its Rental Car Center sits on the third level, between the Dolphin Garage and Flamingo garage. While a Rental Car shuttle bus is not available, the MIA Mover will provide you with a transport mode to the center. Avis, Budget, Hertz, and Enterprise are among the car rentals in Plantation you can find there.
- Plantation has various busy roadways, consisting of Broward Blvd, Sunrise Blvd, 12th Street, University Drive, State Road 7, and Florida’s Turnpike. They branch out to numerous arterial roads that reach various neighborhoods and attractions. Thus, opting for a navigation system on your rental car would go a long way to helping you maneuver the city. Further, keeping off the roads during rush hours would help traffic build-up on most routes, such as Florida Turnpike and University Drive.
- Plantation’s morning rush hour peaks early at around 6am. It features higher than moderate traffic that worsens between 7am and 7:30am. However, roads may clear off by approximately 10am. In the evening, you can expect a rush hour from around 3:30pm. Roadways like Florida Turnpike are mostly affected by bumper-to-bumper traffic. It might be tempting to drive through University Drive to escape the traffic. But the route also features many drivers creating congestion that does not die out until about 7pm.
- Book your car hire in Plantation at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Economy hire cars in Plantation are around 84% cheaper than other car types, on average

Mar 2021
Pros:
The car was decent. Drop off was easy just a little hard to find as the google address brings us to the Mazda dealership and there are no obvious signs in the front of there being enterprise.Cons:
Service was awful. It was a busy weekend and supposedly the company doesn’t anticipate these things for holidays. We waited about three hours for a random car to be ready. I booked and paid for an economy car (Corolla or similar) but got a really small compact car. The car change was fine but there was no refund or price change for downsizing or inconvenience. Sat on the sidewalk for almost three hours and I even called the corporate customer service number to ask for my options and the lady was unsure how to handle the situation so she stopped talking and eventually hung up on me. I don’t know how they could have been so overbooked, it was a terrible experience picking up the car. Everything else was fine10.0 Wonderful

Pick up NOT easy. Mall doors locked. Stood outside for 15 minutes until security let us in. Office open at 8 am. Mall opened at 10 am.Cons:
After getting on the road noticed paperwork was WRONG. Mileage off by almost 2000 miles and indicated tank was full. Tank was only 1/2 full. Unable to get new paperwork. Returned car with full tank. Requesting refund. Not able to have kind of communication with staff at drop off. I understand it’s busy but attendant was almost rude.Hertz

Pros:
After a tremendous amount of time, inconvenience, and multiple visits, we were finally given a vehicle that met our needs.Cons:
Our reservation made almost 3 months in advance meant nothing. We needed a minivan for our vavation, and there were none to be had.2.0 Poor
Mar 2017
Pros:
Nothing, absolutely nothingCons:
The facility was terrible. There was not a lot of help, the employees on pick up and drop off were slow and disinterested. Customer service was clearly NOT a priority. The car itself was terrible. It was expensive and not as described. It had 36K miles so it was older but the condition was terrible. The cloth seats in the interior were stained beyond any rental I have ever seen and there was a disgusting smell like fast food in the car for the duration of my rental. I had to buy 2 car fresheners for the vents and they did not even help in eliminating the smell. Another man that I was speaking with when I was dropping off my car was complaining that the car he just rented from them had bald tires. The rental company was disgraceful. I have rented many cars, especially in the past 3 years. I will NEVER rent from this company again.2.4 Poor
