10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Playa Granada

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by specifying vehicle type and desired features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for added space, a convertible for enjoyable summer drives, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilize the filters on Expedia to discover the best option for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates can vary with demand, so it's wise to secure your vehicle well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you’re more likely to lock in lower prices and enjoy a wider selection, especially during peak travel seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Generally, smaller cars are less expensive to rent and easier to maneuver in crowded areas. Mid-size options strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or luxury models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age restrictions prior to booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements require a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is typically the most favorable option. Other choices may include full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure that you return the car empty in those cases.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airport locations often incurs a surcharge, but the convenience might justify the extra cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Most car rental companies primarily accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and provides peace of mind in case of unforeseen events during your trip. It's easy to add rental insurance when you book through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning extensive road trips, look for rental options that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra fees.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.
