CENTAURO Rental Cars at Ibiza Airport

Ibiza Airport is the main gateway for the islands of Ibiza and Formentera, handling approximately 8 million passengers per year. Ibiza is one of Spain’s Balearic islands, and a very popular destination for local and international holiday makers. During the summer months, the airport is at its busiest, when thousands of people arrive to enjoy the island’s famous ‘party’ atmosphere, and wide array of other attractions. There are a number of transport options available from Ibiza Airport, but the best way to explore the island is by rented car, from a car hire company such as Centauro Rent A Car. Centauro is one of the local Spanish car rental companies at Ibiza Airport, and are well known for their excellent services in the industry.

Although offices of some car hire companies can be found within the terminal building of Ibiza Airport, Centauro, along with others such as Sixt, are located approximately 6 km from the airport, and will require a shuttle bus for transport to their offices. These car hire companies all offer free transport to their rental counters; therefore passengers will have no trouble in collecting their rented car. The shuttle buses are available throughout the day and evening, and leave from the car parking area. Hired vehicles should also be returned to the car rental offices of Centauro, and the shuttle bus taken back to the airport. Especially during the busier summer months of Ibiza, passengers arriving at Ibiza Airport are advised to book their rented car in advance.

On most days of the year, Centauro Ibiza Airport is open at this rental location from 07:00 to 23:00, and offer their customers a wide range of vehicles for hire. Centauro’s fleet of cars are all divided into various rental categories, and are therefore booked accordingly, rather than by their specific make and model. All the vehicle categories available at Ibiza Airport can be found on Centauro’s website, along with pictures and details for the example cars of each category. Although the exact example shown on the website may not be provided, customers will receive a vehicle very similar in size and characteristics. Some of the car categories for hire are Economic, Intermediate, Automatic, Family, Minibus and People Carrier.

Cars found in the Economic category usually come with the best rental prices, and are light on fuel as well, providing their drivers a very cost effective way to enjoy all the attractions in Ibiza. Some of the smaller cars are only ideal for a couple of passengers, like the Ford Ka, while others can be used for up to four or five passengers, such as the Ford Fiesta Trend, Volkswagen Polo, Ford Fusion and Opel Corsa. Customers should keep in mind that cars from Centauro may use normal fuel, or petrol, while others run on diesel. It is important to ensure that you know which type of fuel your car uses, as to avoid unnecessary costs of having the engine cleaned added to your rental. The petrol stations in Spain supply all the internationally known brands of fuel, and are available frequently along main roads of the island. There may however be fewer stations in remoter areas, therefore ensure that your vehicle’s tank is full.

Cars are usually rented with a full tank of fuel, and customers will be offered a choice of fuel policies from which to choose. The choices available may depend on the length of your rental period. In most cases, customers can pay upfront for a tank of fuel, and return the car as empty as possible, or return the car with a full tank, and not pay upfront for fuel. If fuel has not been paid for, and the car is returned empty, Centauro will charge you for a full tank based on their petrol prices, which may be a bit more expensive than at a usual garage.

Vehicles of an automatic transmission may be ideal for customers who are more familiar with this type of car, and may be similar to the Ford Focus 1.6, Volkswagen Passat 2.0 and Ford S-Max Trend. These vehicles may also feature air conditioning, CD players and ABS brakes. Family cars include the Fiat Doblo Combi Panorama Active 1.3 Multijet, Ford Focus Familiar, Citroen C4 Picasso HDI 1.6 and Ford C-Max Trend all seating up to five passengers, while People Carriers available from Centauro include the Opel Zafira 1.6, Citroen GRAN C4 Picasso, Ford Galaxy and Mercedes Viano, seating between five and nine passengers.

Additional options and equipment available from most Ibiza Airport car hire companies include one way hires, hand controls for disabled drivers, baby seats, booster seats, luggage racks and satellite navigation systems. Car seats, GPS units and luggage racks are optional extras, and will cost a small amount extra per day of rental, however, they can be essential for a safe and easy driving experience on the road networks of Ibiza. There are strict road rules to follow in Spain as well, enforcing all occupants of a vehicle to use a seat-belt. Babies and young children will therefore require their own seat when travelling. One way hires are ideal for those not returning to Ibiza Airport, as the rented car can be dropped off at another Centauro Ibiza rental location, while hand controls are best used by individuals with a lower limb deficiency, as they operate the brake and accelerator pedals of the vehicle, which is of an automatic variety. At Ibiza Airport, hand controls should always be reserved in advance.
