10 tips to save on your car hire in and around Playa de Santiago

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle types and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the best option for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it is advisable to secure your car well in advance of your trip. By booking early, you're more likely to obtain lower rates and enjoy greater availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller cars are typically less expensive to rent and can be easier to manoeuvre in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals offer a balanced option, combining affordability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be accessible. This can also apply to renters over 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to making a reservation.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate under a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is typically the most favourable option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fueling alternatives, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure to return the vehicle empty in such cases.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the convenience may justify the additional cost.
  • Know your payment options: Many car hire companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you steer clear of unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind should any unforeseen circumstances arise during your trip. It is simple to add car hire insurance when booking with Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning lengthy road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to avoid incurring extra fees.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's licence is necessary to rent a car.
