Home base
Fort Myers, Florida. The exact pickup address is released with your confirmed booking.
Where we operate
Based in Fort Myers. Serving the coast.
Our home base and pickup location are in Fort Myers. From there we cover nine communities across Southwest Florida, with delivery to airports, hotels and resorts confirmed as part of an eligible booking.
Fort Myers is home base.
Everything starts from our Fort Myers location. That is where vehicles are collected, and it is the centre of the delivery radius. Cape Coral, Naples, Marco Island and the rest of the map below are places we serve, not places we operate from.
Timing
Arrival windows and late-arrival handling are agreed before the rental starts, and airport handoffs need the most notice.
Eligibility
Delivery availability, radius and any fee vary by reservation and are confirmed before you book.
Service area
Nine communities across Southwest Florida.
Fort Myers
Our home base. Collection happens here, and the exact pickup address is released with your confirmed booking rather than published on this page. If you are staying in or near Fort Myers, picking the vehicle up yourself is usually the simplest option.
Cape Coral
One of the largest cities in the region by land area, sitting just across the river from Fort Myers. It is a service area for us rather than our base, so a Cape Coral handoff is arranged as a delivery on eligible dates.
Naples
South along the coast, with the beaches, dining and seasonal residential communities that draw a long winter season. Longer stays and airport-to-Naples handoffs are common requests.
Bonita Springs
Between Fort Myers and Naples, and close enough to RSW that visitors often land, collect a vehicle and drive straight to a rental or resort without a detour.
Sanibel Island
Reached by causeway from the mainland, which makes vehicle choice matter more than usual: bikes, beach gear and a week of luggage all have to fit. Access and conditions can change, so island delivery is confirmed case by case.
Marco Island
The southern end of our map, past Naples. A popular destination for family weeks and multigenerational groups, which is usually a three-row or full-size vehicle conversation.
Port Charlotte
North of the Fort Myers area in Charlotte County. Convenient for guests flying into Punta Gorda Airport rather than RSW.
Punta Gorda
A short hop from Punta Gorda Airport (PGD) and a practical alternative to RSW for some itineraries. We deliver to both airports, so you can fly into one and out of the other.
The RSW airport area
Southwest Florida International Airport is the region’s main gateway. Airport handoffs need the most lead time, especially through the winter season, because the timing has to be agreed in advance around your flight.
Collecting the vehicle yourself
Collection from Fort Myers is the most straightforward way to start a rental. You arrange the reservation through the booking system, and the confirmation carries the exact address along with the instructions for the handoff. We do not publish the address on the website: keeping it with the confirmed booking protects the fleet and means the details you get are the ones that apply to your reservation rather than a general note that may have changed.
If you are already staying in Fort Myers, or driving in from elsewhere in Florida, collection is usually quicker than arranging a delivery window. It also gives you the chance to ask about the vehicle in person before the trip starts.
Delivery across the service area
Delivery is offered across the nine communities listed above, and to hotels, resorts and eligible custom addresses within that area. It is not automatic. Availability, the radius that applies to your dates, the timing and any charge are all confirmed as part of the reservation rather than promised on this page, because they vary with the vehicle, the season and how far the address sits from Fort Myers.
The practical version: tell us where you are staying and when you land or arrive, and the team will confirm what is possible before you commit. Nothing here should be read as a quote.
Flying in
Most visitors arrive through Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW), which sits between Fort Myers and Bonita Springs and is the region’s main gateway. Punta Gorda Airport (PGD) is the practical alternative to the north, and it is common to fly into one and out of the other. Both can be arranged for eligible reservations.
Airport handoffs are the ones worth arranging early. Through the winter season in particular, the timing has to be agreed around your flight in advance, so the earlier the reservation allows it, the better. Call (239) 427-3727 with your flight details and the team will confirm the handoff location and timing.
Choosing the vehicle for the drive
Where you are going shapes what fits. A week on Sanibel with beach gear and luggage is a different vehicle from a couple driving down to Naples for dinner, and a multigenerational group heading to Marco Island is usually a three-row or full-size conversation. Fifteen vehicles across nine models cover convertibles, open-air SUVs, full-size SUVs, a crossover, a minivan and a three-row van, so the honest answer usually comes from the trip rather than the badge.
Location questions
Where we are, and where we go.
Where is SWFL Auto Rentals based?
SWFL Auto Rentals is based in Fort Myers, Florida. Pickup is from our Fort Myers location, and the exact address is released with your confirmed booking rather than published on the website.
Do you serve Cape Coral?
Yes. Cape Coral is one of the nine communities in our service area, and delivery there can be arranged as part of an eligible booking. It is a place we serve rather than where we are based — the home base and the pickup location are both in Fort Myers.
Which communities do you serve?
Nine: Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Naples, Bonita Springs, Sanibel Island, Marco Island, Port Charlotte, Punta Gorda and the RSW airport area. Hotels, resorts and eligible custom addresses across that area can be arranged.
Can you deliver to the airport?
Delivery to Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) and Punta Gorda Airport (PGD) can be arranged for eligible reservations. Arrange it as early as the reservation allows, and earlier through the winter season, so the handoff location and timing can be confirmed around your flight.
Is there a charge for delivery?
Delivery availability, radius, timing and any applicable charges vary by reservation and are confirmed before you book. Nothing on this website should be treated as a quote — the live booking system and staff confirmation are the only current sources.
