When choosing a car hire in Newport Beach, opting for a versatile SUV or a convertible can enhance your driving experience in this vibrant coastal city. An SUV provides ample space for families or larger groups, making it ideal for beach trips or exploring nearby attractions like Crystal Cove State Park. On the other hand, a convertible is perfect for enjoying the beautiful California weather and cruising along scenic routes such as the Pacific Coast Highway. Both car types offer comfort, style, and adaptability to cater to different types of travellers visiting Newport Beach.
The speed limits in Newport Beach generally adhere to the standard California regulations. Within the city, the typical speed limit on residential streets is 25 mph to prioritise safety in residential areas. However, on major roads and highways, such as Pacific Coast Highway (PCH), the speed limit is usually 55 mph unless otherwise posted. Be vigilant and mindful of any speed limit signs, especially near schools, parks, or construction zones, where lower speed limits may be in effect. Speed cameras might also be present in certain areas to enforce speed limits and maintain road safety.
Parking in Newport Beach can vary depending on the area and time of day. In certain parts of the city, you may need to plan for paid parking. Downtown Newport Beach offers parking structures and metered street parking, where rates typically range from $1.50 to $2 per hour (£1.10 to £1.50). Additionally, some popular beach areas may have pay-and-display lots available, with prices averaging around $15 to $20 per day (£11 to £15). If you're looking to save on parking costs, consider utilising free parking areas a bit further from the city centre.

Cons:
Pickup was very cumbersome. Why do I have to re-give all the same address/phone number/credit card details over the counter that I gave when I made the reservation? The system should have all my details. Just give me the keys. It shouldn't take 15 minutes of back and forth to check each person in. The line to wait at the counter was longer than the flight to Orange County was!4.0 Mediocre

Pros:
Staff was great at pick up and dropoffCons:
The quality of the vehicle. Given a vehicle with a big dent in the door. Purchased the package that I could choose my own vehicle only to find out I needed to pay an upgrade for a mustang if I wanted. I will not use the choose your vehicle option because I did not get to choose .6.0 Okay

Pros:
The rate was very competitive.Cons:
The location was extremely hard to find, inside the hotel. Very little signage around. I had prepaid and when I arrive there were no cars available. I had to ask if they could call another location to see if there was another car for me. (They did. There wasn't.) I waited for them to clean a newly arrived car. There's also no way to contact the location itself rather than the 800 number. I had to return 1.5 weeks early because my father had a medical emergency and the 800 number wouldn't issue me any refund, saying I had to talk to the location itself, which I could never find a number for. I was in the hospital with my dad for 2 weeks and couldn't drive over or spend the time fighting. Crappy service.One location in Newport Beach

Pros:
I like that the attendant was polite. Price was good for the rental.Cons:
Attendant does not answer the phone. I called at different times on different days, never answered the phone. The attendant left the location to wash a car for an 45 minutes. There is no key drop off at that location. There is no shuttle to the airport that is 1 mi. I will not book w/ budget again.10.0 Wonderful
