Customer reviews for MalagaCar
Picked up the car from the dealer which was a short drive from the airport. Very efficient check in as pre-filled details prior to departure. In and out within 5 minutes. No hassle about insurance and the vehicle was clean, fully fuelled and in good order. The return was just as swift so would definitely use them again.

— Tapasboy • July 6, 2024Efficient, no nonsense service.
— Dave R • September 24, 2023The best hire company I have ever used, and I have used a lot! The transfer was waiting for me right outside the arrivals hall, 2 minutes to the collection depot and most importantly: I was in and out in less than 10 minutes!!! 6 people working on the desks (for 4 customers), absolutely no hard sell of anything, they were happy to accept I had my own Excess policy with RME, they did not do that daft thing where you have to spend 15 minutes going around the car with someone looking for minute scratches and the return process was just handing the keys over and a cursory check you had not run into a lamp post. I will only be booking with this company when flying to Malaga again.
— RevolvingS • August 8, 2023We've been using Malagacar for years. They're an excellent company and always great to deal with. We've never experienced any issues dealing with them.
— Broughty-Ferry-Boy • June 7, 2022Used them for a number of years and they have got better and better. This year's rates were not too bad. The ONLY downside is they have stopped doing a Berlingo, which was ideal for our golf clubs.
— Pilko • May 25, 2022Regularly used over the years, always new vehicles, excellent staff and easy to understand terms. No complaints at all - apart from new requirement to leave the car tank full!

— Looknofurther • March 23, 2019Having had bad experiences with other rental companies in the past, such as Gold Car and Budget - I researched the car hire companies before travelling last June and found Malagacar.com. The service was smooth, with no problems at all, a good quality car and efficient pick up from the airport. Will use them again when we return to Malaga.
— MBennett • March 10, 20191. I did not get the car what I wanted to hire, but got another one for doubled price. 2. I did not get the 1100 EUR deposit back despite of number of calls and emails. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY! UNPROFESSIONAL.
— Jacinta • September 16, 2018

— Crawley • August 18, 2017Car in fair condition. Half tank on return policy.
— Phil • August 8, 2017Heard numerous horror stories regarding car hire in Malaga, which were confirmed by a couple we met at Luggage Collect who own a property in Spain and hired a car on their many visit. Malaga Car seemed to have relatively positive reviews so we planned for the worst and hoped for the best. Malagacar isn't on site but as we had pre booked got emailed instructions on where and how to find them which was simple enough. They took us on an extremely short shuttle journey to their site just outside the airport. With details in hand, I was preparing myself for the "hard sell" on insurance, which we'd read up on regarding car hire in Malaga in general. Too my surprise there was no hard sell, in fact it wasn't mentioned once! Obviously I had purchased insurance prior to arriving, although this doesn't seem to stop some companies. Once the paperwork was out of the way and paid for we were shown to our vehicle. It wasn't new and had several pre existing scratches and dents but nothing too substantial, still best to make a note of as many as you can see just in case. After surveying the car, photographing all the existing damage I checked my credit card app to see what money had been taken, good job I did as I had been overcharged by approximately €40. I went back in and questioned the overcharging, wasn't sure if it was deliberate or accidental but they quickly refunded the difference and apologised of sorts. The car itself was fine, no issues really apart for the existing damage. Upon returning the car the vehicle was quickly checked, once again I had heard horror stories but not to be. We were then processed quickly onto the shuttle back to the airport. If it wasn't for the overcharging I would rate Malagacar 7 or 8 from the experience I had but they did overcharge and I don't like to think about how difficult it would be to get the difference refunded over the phone or email.
— MCC • July 27, 2017The pickup from the airport wasn't entirely clear from the directions given but we managed to figure it out. The bus ride was only a handy 3 minute journey and the paper work was sorted in 10 minutes. The car was completely covered in dents and scratches so I took all round photos, ensuring that the company saw me do this and I made them write the dents on the paperwork as they weren't going to do this. This is the best precaution as I got caught out last year with a well known hire company beginning with 'H', who claimed I had scraped the car when I knew the dent was there on pickup (and even marked on the paperwork). You live and learn, eh? This time, the holiday was great, the car ran great and returning it was easy. I asked if everything was ok with the car and if they wanted to go around it - they didn't seem bothered. So, I assume that, at this stage, all is good - result. I just read Jon, the CEO's, advice and it matches mine: take pictures, badger the staff to write the dents and scratches on the diagram and badger them on the return - it all adds up to a better, stress-free (and cheaper) holiday. Having the RME cover is the cheapest way to get great cover without the car hire staff badgering you for 'only' €40 extra per day. What's not to like? Happy Summer motoring!
— Steve • July 11, 2017Love this car hire company. Very clear pricing, no hidden extras at all!! Quick pick up and drop off at airport - very efficient service to complete the payment and drivers details. I have used Malagacar five times now after trying many other rentacar companies at Malaga airport. Good cars, efficient staff and the price they advertise is the price you pay. Recommend!
— Casicasicolacao • June 24, 2017I have used this hire company on numerous occasions and have always been treated with respect both on collection and return of the car. I highly recommend this company to anyone wishing to hire a car from Malaga.
