When renting a car there is always a lot to consider so here’s our top tips for renting in the Costa del Sol:

Save with pre-paid
Most car rental companies offer a ‘pre-paid’ product which is cheaper than the pay on arrival price. If you are unlikely to change the dates you wish to rent the car then go for this option.
 
Don't forget the luggage
Think about the luggage! It’s easy to think a small car will be fine, especially if it’s considerably cheaper, but don’t forget you’re going to have to fit in everyone and their entire luggage.
 
Check your insurance cover
Check any insurance excess, some of the cheaper deals might include hefty insurance excess payment if an accident occurs. You can purchase cheap car hire insurance online that will refund any excess you have to pay.
 
Find cheap rates
Shop around. There’s plenty of good offers to be had thanks to the competitive car hire market in the Costa del Sol. The five top car hire suppliers we’ve listed below all offer very competitive rates and you can also try one of these car hire competitor websites.
 
Don't worry
Don’t panic. If you’ve driven in the UK you shouldn’t have any problems driving in the Costa del Sol. The roads are of a high standard and most rental companies now offer cars with sat nav. Read our guide for more information on driving in the Costa del Sol.
