CAR HIRE

Hiring a car to get to your holiday apartment is a great option.

The 45 minute journey from Malaga airport is very straightforward .

Also a car can be useful for any trips you may like to make. 

see our tourist information page for ideas.

We always go with a no deposit pay on arrival company, beware some companies

hit you with hidden costs at pick up and your 'bargain' disappears.

Outside the high  season some companies rent for less than €3 for up to 28days.....if you are brave enough!

We have tried many companies over the years and now find Malagacar.com

on this link Car hire pay on arrival by far the best option

They are very efficient and quick with reasonable rates good cars and 

hardly any queues, unlike some companies operating out of the terminal,

(we have seen queues of 50 families out of season!)
