No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your Budget booking in Miami Beach are clearly shown at the time of reservation and in your confirmation email, so you know exactly what you are paying before you arrive at the Budget counter.

On top of that, every Hola Car Rentals booking includes the No Extra Charges© guarantee. This is a pricing guarantee (not insurance) that protects you if the Budget counter in Miami Beach charges you for something that was not listed on your confirmation and was not an optional add-on you accepted. If that happens, Hola Car Rentals will work with Budget to remove or reimburse the charge after verification.

The only costs outside this guarantee are:

• Optional add-ons you choose at the counter (GPS, child seats, prepaid fuel)
• Usage-based charges (tolls, fuel shortfall, traffic fines)

The Budget location in Miami Beach is at 6742 Collins Ave (at 67th Street), Miami Beach, FL 33141. This is a corporate street-level counter, not an airport facility.

Counter hours for this Budget Miami Beach location are:

• Monday to Friday: 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM
• Saturday: 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM
• Sunday: 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM

If you are arriving at Miami International Airport (MIA) and plan to pick up at this Budget Miami Beach address, note that you will need to drive approximately 20 to 30 minutes via the MacArthur Causeway to reach Collins Ave. There is no shuttle between MIA and this city location. Plan your arrival time around the counter hours listed above, as no after-hours pickup is specified for this site.

To pick up your Budget rental in Miami Beach, you must bring all of the following physical documents to the counter:

• Valid driver's license (original, unexpired, physical card) in the main driver's name
• Passport or government-issued photo ID
• Major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, in the main driver's name (debit and prepaid cards are not accepted for the security deposit)
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
• Round-trip flight or cruise tickets if you are visiting from abroad

If your driver's license is not in the English alphabet (for example, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script), an International Driving Permit (IDP) is mandatory at the Budget Miami Beach counter. The IDP is a translation only and must be carried alongside your original license, never as a standalone document.

All documents must be physical. Digital versions shown on a phone or tablet are not accepted at the Budget counter in Miami Beach.

Almost all toll roads in the Miami Beach area are fully cashless, meaning there are no cash booths. Your Budget rental vehicle comes equipped with an electronic toll device or a plate-based billing system that records your toll usage automatically.

At the Budget counter in Miami Beach, you will typically have two options:

• Unlimited toll package: approximately US$11 to US$15 per rental day, covering all tolls during your rental period
• Pay per use: the actual toll amount plus daily or administrative processing fees billed to your credit card, sometimes days or weeks after you return the vehicle

Common toll roads you may encounter driving around Miami Beach and South Florida include the Florida Turnpike and I-95 Express lanes. Estimated daily toll costs in the Miami area range from approximately US$5 to US$20 depending on your route.

If you prefer to use your own visitor toll pass, inform the Budget counter representative at pickup so they can deactivate the vehicle's default device and prevent duplicate charges.

Yes, every booking made through Hola Car Rentals includes Tolls Cashback, which lets you recover up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your Budget rental in Miami Beach.

Given that South Florida roads such as the Florida Turnpike and I-95 Express lanes are fully cashless and tolls can add up to US$5 to US$20 per day in the Miami Beach area, this benefit can provide meaningful savings.

To claim your cashback after returning your Budget vehicle in Miami Beach:

• Email [email protected] within 30 days of returning the vehicle
• Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - HOLA followed by your confirmation number
• Attach your Hola Car Rentals reservation confirmation, the rental agreement signed at the Budget counter, and a toll invoice or statement showing charges paid

Refunds are issued to the original payment method used for your reservation and typically process within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Claims submitted after 30 days are not accepted.

Yes, Budget in Miami Beach applies a young-driver surcharge for renters between 21 and 24 years old. The standard Budget fee is US$13 per rental day plus taxes, with a maximum charge of US$65 plus taxes for the rental period.

Drivers must be at least 21 years old to rent from Budget in Miami Beach. Drivers under 25 are also restricted from renting certain vehicle classes, including full-size sedans, SUVs, minivans, convertibles, luxury, and premium vehicles. Economy, compact, medium sedan, standard sedan, compact SUV, and medium SUV categories are generally available to eligible under-25 renters.

One important exception: if you are a citizen or resident of Latin America or the Caribbean and your Hola Car Rentals confirmation explicitly shows the underage fee waived, Budget in Miami Beach may waive this surcharge for the main driver aged 21 to 24. This exception applies only to the main driver and only to eligible vehicle categories. Additional drivers aged 21 to 24 are generally not accepted at Budget locations.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Budget rental in Miami Beach, but the additional driver must be physically present at the counter at the time of pickup.

To add an additional driver at the Budget Miami Beach counter, the extra driver must bring:

• A valid, original driver's license in good standing
• A passport or government-issued photo ID
• An International Driving Permit (IDP) if their license is not in the Latin alphabet

Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the rental agreement. Only drivers listed on the agreement are covered by protections such as CDW/LDW.

If your Hola Car Rentals confirmation does not show additional driver as included, Budget in Miami Beach charges US$13 per rental day plus taxes, with a maximum of US$65 plus taxes. Note that for Budget, additional drivers must generally be at least 25 years old at the time of pickup. If you need to add a driver after you have already left the counter, you must return to the Budget Miami Beach location in person to update the agreement.

When you pick up your Budget rental in Miami Beach, the counter will place a temporary authorization hold on your credit card. For standard vehicles in the United States, this hold is typically around US$300 to US$400, though the exact amount can vary based on the vehicle class, rental duration, and Budget's current policy at the Miami Beach location.

Important things to know about the deposit at Budget in Miami Beach:

• The hold is not a charge; it temporarily reduces your available credit until released after you return the vehicle
• Only a physical, major credit card in the main driver's name with the driver's name printed on the card is accepted. Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual cards are not accepted
• Your bank controls when the hold is released after return, which can take up to 15 business days
• Premium or specialty vehicle classes may carry a higher hold amount

Even if you prepaid your Budget Miami Beach booking, you must still present a physical credit card at the counter for the security hold. Bring a backup credit card in case your primary card is declined.

When renting from Budget in Miami Beach, two main types of coverage are worth understanding before you arrive at the counter.

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) reduces your financial liability for damage to the Budget rental vehicle itself, including collision, theft, and vandalism. A deductible may apply unless your confirmation shows zero deductible. CDW/LDW does not cover damage you cause to other vehicles or people.

Third-Party Liability (LIS/ALI/SLI) covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to others while driving your Budget rental in Miami Beach. Florida does not universally require rental companies to include state-minimum liability in every rental, so confirming this coverage is on your agreement is strongly recommended.

Neither CDW/LDW nor LIS/ALI/SLI covers:

• Your personal injuries (that requires Personal Accident Insurance)
• Your personal belongings
• Tires, undercarriage, or roof damage unless specifically included
• Drivers not listed on the Budget rental agreement

Review your Hola Car Rentals confirmation to see which protections are included in your rate before arriving at the Budget Miami Beach counter.

Yes, most Hola Car Rentals bookings include travel assistance coverage provided by Terrawind Global Protection, and this applies to your Budget rental in Miami Beach as well. However, this benefit is available only to travelers who are not residents of the United States or Canada.

If you are driving your Budget rental around Miami Beach or on South Florida highways and something goes wrong, the travel assistance coverage typically includes:

• Medical coverage for up to 5 passengers for accidents and non-pre-existing illnesses
• Legal assistance in the event of an accident
• Compensation for luggage lost by the airline
• Flight cancellation insurance

To get help 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, contact Terrawind directly:

• Phone (toll-free or collect): +1 888 980 9992
• WhatsApp: +1 208 910 1001
• Email: [email protected]

When you call, have your full name and your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready. This coverage does not replace CDW/LDW for damage to the Budget vehicle or LIS/ALI/SLI for third-party liability. Check your booking confirmation for the exact terms and coverage limits that apply to your Miami Beach rental.

Budget rentals in Miami Beach follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.

To avoid fuel charges on your Budget Miami Beach rental:

• Check the fuel gauge with the Budget agent at pickup and confirm the starting level is recorded on the rental agreement
• Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and fuel gauge before leaving the lot
• Refuel within approximately 10 miles of the Budget return location at 6742 Collins Ave so the gauge does not drop before you arrive
• Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address

If you return the Budget vehicle in Miami Beach with less than a full tank, you may be charged for the fuel shortfall at the partner's refueling rate, which is typically higher than the pump price, plus a refueling service fee.

If the vehicle was not full at pickup, ask the Budget agent to record the exact starting level on the agreement and return it at that same level to avoid charges.

Yes, one-way rentals from Budget in Miami Beach to another city or airport are possible, but a drop-off fee may apply depending on your route.

How one-way fees work for Budget rentals originating in Miami Beach:

• The drop-off fee is route-specific and varies by destination, vehicle class, and season
• Same-city routes (for example, Miami Beach to Miami International Airport) often carry no drop-off fee
• Routes to other Florida cities or out-of-state destinations typically include a drop-off fee
• The fee is not prepaid and is listed under the "To pay at destination" section of your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation

This fee is separate from mileage, fuel, and tolls. It is not covered by No Extra Charges© unless it was not disclosed on your confirmation. Cross-border one-way rentals (for example, from Miami Beach to a location outside the United States) are generally restricted or require prior approval from Budget.

Always review the drop-off fee shown during checkout before confirming your Budget Miami Beach reservation to avoid surprises at the counter.

Miami Beach has a notable one-way street system that can catch first-time drivers off guard, and it is worth understanding before you drive your Budget rental around the area.

Key driving rules to know in Miami Beach:

• Ocean Drive between 5th and 11th Streets has been converted to one-way southbound during certain periods, including major events such as Spring Break
• One-way signs in Miami Beach are often mounted on far corners angled away from approaching traffic, so you need to scan intersections deliberately rather than relying on obvious placement
• Left turns on red are conditionally legal in Florida, but only when turning onto a one-way street. You must visually confirm one-way signage at every intersection before making this maneuver in your Budget rental
• Wide multi-lane roads can appear to be one-way when they are actually divided two-way streets with medians, which can cause confusion

During major events such as Spring Break in March, Miami Beach may impose temporary traffic restrictions on Ocean Drive and surrounding neighborhoods, including limited vehicle access points and doubled traffic fines in designated special event zones. Plan your Budget rental routes in Miami Beach accordingly and allow extra time when navigating the city grid.

If you return your Budget rental in Miami Beach after the agreed drop-off time, additional charges may apply once the grace period has passed.

The standard grace period at most Budget locations is 30 minutes, though this is not guaranteed at every site. If you exceed the grace period at the Miami Beach location, Budget may charge for extra hours or an additional rental day, plus a late return fee.

To avoid late return charges on your Budget Miami Beach rental:

• Plan your return to arrive before the scheduled time, accounting for Miami Beach traffic and time needed to refuel nearby
• Remember that the Budget Miami Beach counter at 6742 Collins Ave closes at 6:00 PM on weekdays, 5:00 PM on Saturdays, and 4:00 PM on Sundays. Returning after closing hours may affect how your return is processed
• If you need more time, contact Budget or Hola Car Rentals support before your scheduled return to explore extending the rental

If your plans change significantly and you need to extend your Budget rental in Miami Beach, it is always better to request the extension in advance rather than simply returning late, as extension availability and pricing may differ from late return fees.
