Car Rental - Puerto Pollenca

Having used a number of Car Rental companies with varying success I gained some useful experiences which you may find helpful.

The first thing is that generally international companies are way out the most expensive. Some offering what seems to be an excellent price but, when you arrive to collect the car, add massive insurance costs. So if you go this route make sure that your price really is all inclusive and that there are absolutely no extra charges.

One of the ploys is to make 'special' offers at very attractive prices and then load on the extras when the customer is most vulnerable i.e. without an easily available alternative.

I switched to a small local company who leave the car in the multi-storage car park at the airport for you to collect. You leave it in the same place when you return.

Unfortunately, being small they do not operate a 24 hour, 7 day a week back up service. So if you break down, as I did, you can be left to your own devices.

I then tried out Easycar Rentals which were great and their prices extremely competitive. They did have 24 hour, 7 day a week back up. There were a few niggles regarding cleaning the car after use and debates regarding who was responsible for small scratches, hitherto unnoticed, but overall I was happy with the deal.

Unfortunately, Easycar seems to have pulled out of Mallorca so we go back to square one again.

Based on my own experiences here are a few possibilities for you. Bear in mind however that people change as do the quality of services so if these suggestions are to have a value I need feed back of good and bad experiences.

Pepecar.com My first experience of this company was when they set up alongside Easycar in Mallorca. They offered the same car, the Mercedes A3, at a much reduced price.
Their prices are still very good but they fluctuate with the season.
I note however that they are now offering a different make of car.
Early booking helps to get a good price.

Delta Car Hire Friendly, local company. Worth trying for a good price. They offer a range of cars. The cheapest may be a little aged.
Cars are left for collection in the airport multi-storage car park.
Ask them for a quote by fax.

Terry's Car Hire Another local company whose cars are collected at the airport.
