About Renting a Car at Bay Lake South

Bay Lake South is located right next to Walt Disney World resort in Orange County, approximately 30 km southwest of Orlando center. With 1 rental company on-site, it's a very convenient option for Disney area visitors who want the flexibility to explore more of Central Florida. Via US-192 and I-4, you can reach Universal Studios in 30 minutes.

Bay Lake is surrounded by Disney World's enormous resort with parks including Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, and Hollywood Studios within 5 km. Kissimmee with its many restaurants and attractions along US-192 is only 10 km to the south. Rent a car if you plan to visit other parks besides Disney - it saves expensive taxi costs.

Book in advance during peak season (Christmas and New Year) when availability is limited. Refuel at stations on US-192 which are cheaper than inside the resort area. Can I pick up a rental car directly at Disney World in Bay Lake?

Yes, the rental company at Bay Lake South is located near the Disney resort, making it easy to pick up the car without long transportation. How far is Bay Lake from Orlando International Airport? It's about 35 km and takes approximately 35-45 minutes via FL-417 (Greeneway).

Is it worth renting a car when staying at a Disney World resort? Yes, if you want to visit SeaWorld, Universal Studios, or Florida's beaches, a rental car is much more convenient and cheaper than taxi or Uber.

We compare prices from all major providers at Bay Lake South so you can see the total cost upfront - including insurance, fuel terms and any extras. Most bookings include free cancellation up to 48 hours before pickup, giving you flexibility if your plans change.
