The following companies come recommended by our previous guests
that have stayed at our rental villas in
Salobrena. We have no affiliation with any of these companies.
- CarJet is
Spain's number 1 car hire company. They are a broker so they search
for the best prices amongst all rental car companies. They have
been around since 1998 and they offer good service and have very
competitive, all inclusive prices.
- Helle Hollis is
a Danish owned and managed company. They are known for having good,
reliable cars and efficient service. Every Thursday morning at
10 a.m., they publish last minute car hire offers for the week
on their website.
- Crown
Car Hire are well established throughout Andalucia. They
even have an office in Almunecar, which is 10 minutes away from
our villas, so if you have any problems a change can be made
very conveniently. One client complained about having to wait
in a long queue. This occurred during the Easter holiday period.
The other car companies were empty, which leads me to believe
that Crown had the most affordable prices.
The following 3 car hire companies operate out of Malaga
airport, but not Granada airport.
They come recommended by our previous guests for their low cost
prices.
- Malaga Car -
They have their own fleet of brand new cars. They are not brokers,
so you get direct prices and presumably better customer service.
Repeat guests of our holiday homes use this rental car company
every time they visit us in Salobrena.
- Europa
Rent a Car - Many people like this company because there
are no insurance excesses. As a result, their prices are very
competitive. We recently had some negative feedback from clients
about having to wait in a queue one hour to collect the car.
The other complaint was in regard to the fuel policy. They had
to pay 71 euros for a full tank of petrol at the start of the
rental and then they could return the tank empty. Seventy one
euros for a small VW Golf is quite expensive and at least 30
euros higher than the market price. The flip side, though, is
that there were no insurance excesses. We mention this so you
can consider all the costs and make an apples to apples comparison
when booking your hire car.
- Record
Rent a Car - Their prices are supposedly the lowest although
some of our guests have complained about having to wait in a
long queue.
