How does collection and delivery at Málaga Airport (AGP) work and are there any conditions?
If you’re hiring a car for Calahonda, you can also request collection and delivery at Málaga Airport (AGP). When you book we’ll ask for your flight number and arrival time to coordinate the handover. We’ll be waiting for you and handle the paperwork directly at the car, with no queues, no desks and no airport offices, so within minutes you’re driving towards Calahonda.
Return at AGP works the same way, with an agreed time so you don’t waste a moment. The service may have conditions depending on the season, time of day and length of hire, and we’ll confirm everything before closing your booking so you have the full picture.
Can I drive outside Calahonda with the hire car?
Absolutely. Your hire car is valid for travelling to Fuengirola, Marbella, Benalmádena, Torremolinos, Málaga city and throughout Andalusia with no restrictions. You can head up to Mijas Village, take a trip to Ronda, visit Nerja or drive all the way to Granada. If you need to cross into Gibraltar or Portugal, just let us know in advance so we can adjust the insurance cover and you’re good to go.
Do I need a credit card to hire a car?
It depends on your cover. With Basic Cover, yes: a credit card is required as a €700 excess is authorised in the name of the main driver at collection. This is a block, not a charge. With Premium Cover there is no excess, so that €700 authorisation does not apply.
What documents do I need to hire a car in Calahonda?
You simply need to be at least 23 years old with a driving licence held for a minimum of 2 years. At collection, present your original valid ID or passport. If you’re a non-EU citizen you’ll also need your international driving permit alongside your original licence. We do not accept photocopies or digital documents — the original physical document is required.
What insurance and cover is included with the hire?
When you hire a car, the greatest peace of mind comes from knowing exactly what is and isn’t covered. At Artal Car Hire Calahonda we explain everything from the start, with no jargon and no small print. We want you to drive with complete confidence, knowing what cover applies, what may be blocked on your card and what protection you have throughout your trip.
We offer two cover options available across our entire fleet:
Basic Cover with Excess Includes Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) with a €700 excess authorised on the driver’s credit card at collection. That amount is only blocked, not charged, and is released when the vehicle is returned in good condition. This option includes a mileage limit of 150 km/day.
Premium Cover with Zero Excess Our most complete option. Includes fully comprehensive insurance (excluding tyres, glass and undercarriage), 24/7 roadside assistance throughout the hire, unlimited mileage throughout Andalusia and a full-to-full fuel policy. This cover is valid in Spain, Gibraltar and Portugal, and includes a free additional driver. A small charge applies only in the event of lost keys, missing fuel or a return outside agreed hours.
If you’re not sure which cover suits your trip best, call us or WhatsApp us and we’ll advise you straight away.
Can I add a second driver?
Yes, you can add additional drivers to your hire agreement. The additional driver must meet the same age and documentation requirements as the main driver and present their original documents at collection. Ask us about the conditions when you make your booking.
Can I change the dates or cancel my booking?
No problem. You can cancel or modify your booking free of charge up to 24 hours before collection. If you need to make last-minute changes on the day, WhatsApp us or give us a call and we’ll find the best solution. We understand that plans change and we’ll adapt accordingly.
Is a child seat or booster seat included?
Yes, completely free of charge. We have approved Group 0, 1 and 2 child seats and booster seats at no extra cost. Just let us know when you book so it’s fitted and ready when you collect the car. The safety of little ones is something we never cut corners on.
Do I have to leave a deposit or pay an excess?
With Basic Cover, a €700 excess is authorised on your card at collection. That amount is only blocked and is released when the vehicle is returned in the same condition. With Premium Cover, you hire with zero excess. A charge would only apply in specific cases such as lost keys, missing fuel at return or a return outside agreed hours.
