Spring Break Hot Spots In Florida To Visit

March is one of the most beautiful months in the state of Florida, because the weather is usually warm enough to go to the beach, but cool enough enjoy being outside. Each year, thousands of spring break college students and families from up north visit Florida in March and April for the spring break school holiday. Fortunately, there are plenty of options for discount travel to Florida, including cheap rental cars offered by E-Z Rent-A-Car. Tampa, Ft. Lauderdale, and Miami are all popular destinations for Spring Break, because the night life is great, the beaches are better, and they have plenty of hotels and tourist attractions to accommodate you.

Tampa, Florida

I recently wrote an article giving you some ideas for fun, free things to do in Tampa, and I recommend you check out all of those recommendations when you’re visiting Tampa. St. Petersburg beach, Ft. Desoto beach (at southern tip of Pinellas County), and Clearwater beach are three great beaches you must try out. Also, you’ll save a lot of money in Tampa if you choose a hotel just off the beach. The area of Tampa, Clearwater, and St. Petersburg is huge, and we recommend renting a discount rental car from the Tampa Airport.

Ft. Lauderdale, Florida

Ft. Lauderdale is only 30 minutes from the heart of Miami, it’s less busy, and it has wonderful, sprawling beaches. The beaches are also less crowded, and you’ll spend less on a hotel if you stay on the beaches of Ft. Lauderdale. South Beach has the name and recognition, and it usually boasts higher hotel prices because of it. You won’t be disappointed if you decide to stay in Ft. Lauderdale, and they have their own international airport that is less crowded and easier to get in and out of. Rent a car from Ft. Lauderdale Airport (FLL)

Miami, Florida

If you’ve never visited Miami, it is truly a unique experience. The rich Cuban and Hispanic influence make Miami such a great experience for anyone looking for something different. South Beach is the famous beach of the Miami Beaches, and there’s always something to do. It has art-deco, historical hotels, great food, and vibrant night life. We recommend this list of great restaurants in Miami to try. If you want to experience all of the great attractions that Miami has to offer such as the Planetarium, The Island Parrot Jungle, or the Art Museum, we recommend renting a car with E-Z from MIami International Airport.

3 Reasons To Rent A Car When Visiting Florida

florida-beach

Florida is one of the most popular vacation destinations in the world. When you combine thousands of miles of beaches, warm weather, plenty of sun, Disney World, and some of the most vibrant cities in the U.S., it’s a great combination for tourism. What some people don’t realize is the size of Florida. Florida is a huge state. From top to bottom is about 450 miles, and from Jacksonville to the tip of the panhandle is about another 400 miles. Unfortunately, Florida has no decent public transportation to get around, so car is the best mode of transportation to hope from one city to the next. Here are 3 good reasons you need to rent a discount rental car when you come to Florida.

No Good Public Transportation

The rail system is not good in Florida. There’s a Commuter Rail in South Florida that can take you back and forth from Palm County to Dade County, but it’s still pretty slow. Other than that, you have Amtrak, and we all know that Amtrak doesn’t cut it. Orlando’s government just passed a bill to start building a high-speed rail from Orlando to Tampa and back, but that won’t be ready for a while. Florida does have a solid highway system though, and that is why renting a car is important. If you visit Orlando, you may want to check out Busch Gardens in Tampa or a catch a football, baseball, or hockey game. Reserving a cheap rental car in Orlando is essential if you want to experience everything Orlando and Tampa have to offer.

Florida Has Dozens of Appealing Attractions

Orlando has Disney and Universal Studios, but it’s not close to the beach. Daytona Beach and Cocoa Beach are an hour away. Cocoa Beach also has the Kennedy Space Center. Miami has South Beach, but the Keys are a great fishing and water sports destination. Renting a car at Miami International Airport is essential, because Palm Beach, Ft. Lauderdale, and the Keys are close enough to drive to.

Great Deals In Florida For Car Rentals

A great example of this is our Ft. Lauderdale Location. You can find an economy car on non-peak days for $12 to $16 a day! All of our locations in Florida have great rates. You can get real-time updates on Twitter for great deals that our customers have recently booked, and we provide a link to our site to let you try to see if that rate is still available!

How To Save Money On Your Car Rental

For most of our customers, price is a huge factor when determining what company to use when renting a car. The economy isn’t great right now, which leads to even more price-sensitive consumers. Here at E-Z Rent-A-Car, we understand that you are looking for the best price, so here are a few ways that you can ensure getting the best car rental rate from us or any other car rental company you choose.

Book In Advance

In economics, supply and demand drive the price of any good or service that we consume. This is no different in the car rental industry. The more advance notice that you book a car rental, the better your chances are of getting a great deal. As the time gets closer to your expected date of rental, the supply for a car rental goes down and the demand goes up. This is why airlines and rental car companies charge higher rates when booking a car or flight with less time in advance.

If you know that you’ll be renting a car over a busy holiday, make sure you book further in advance to lock in the best rates possible.

Take advantage of our online coupons.

If you are a veteran, senior citizen, teacher, student, airline employee, or policeman, we have a discount code waiting for you! These coupons are offered frequently on our website, so make sure you use them when you book a reservation with E-Z Rent-A-Car.

Here is the page for E-Z Rent-A-Car Discounts and Promotions

Join Our E-Z Money Rewards Program

When you join E-Z Money you’ll receive instant discounts and have access to exclusive member only coupons. Every member automatically receives 10% of their future car rentals. Plus you’ll start earning points that can be redeemed for credits on future rentals with no black out periods.*

Once you sign up, we’ll also give you a complimentary, personalized page where you can log in and easily find your future reservations, past rentals, access receipts, and keep track of all your E-Z Money points.


Click here to learn more about our three E-Z Money programs and which one suits you best.

The most important tip is to be an informed and educated consumer. Don’t just settle for the first car rental rate that you find. Search for different rates, read customer reviews, and search for the company with the best customer service and fleet vehicles. We are confident that E-Z Rent-A-Car will fulfill all of your car rental needs.
