MARBESOL Rental Cars at Ibiza Airport

Ibiza Airport is located approximately 7 km from Ibiza Town, on the island of Ibiza, which is the closest of Spain’s Balearic Islands to the mainland. The airport serves as the main gateway to two of the Balearic islands, Ibiza and Formentera, and handles around 8 million passengers per year. The majority of these passengers arrive during the summer, as local or international tourists, coming to enjoy the beach, nightlife and historical attractions of the island. Ibiza is also known as the ‘party capital of Europe’. At Ibiza Airport, passengers can hire a car from a number of car rental companies, some local and others internationally recognized. One of the local companies present is Marbesol, and customers often rely on Marbesol’s low rental rates and quality vehicles for their holiday or business trip in Ibiza.

The car hire companies at Ibiza Airport are located in the arrivals area of the terminal building, which is entered after luggage collection from the baggage reclaim area. There is just one terminal building at the airport; therefore passengers will have no trouble in finding the facilities they require. Most of the car hire companies are also open from early in the morning, around 07:00, to later at night, closing around 23:00 or midnight. They can also be open 24 hours a day during the busier tourist season on the island. Although passengers can go directly to the rental counters of Marbesol in order to arrange their vehicle, it is recommended to rather make an advanced reservation. This will ensure that your ideal car is ready and waiting for your arrival at the airport.

Some of the vehicle categories offered by Marbesol are Economy, Medium, Automatics, Family, Minibus and Cabriolet. It is very important to ensure that you reserve the correct size of vehicle for your holiday, as a car that is too small, packed with luggage and children, can be very uncomfortable!

The Economy category offers vehicles that come with lower rental rates, and are often considered to be environmentally friendly as well. They are a great choice for single drivers or couples exploring the island, but may not offer enough luggage room for families. Examples of Economy cars are the Ford Ka and Ford Fiesta. Medium cars may be more suitable for families, or even business renters, and are larger than Economy cars. They include the Ford Fusion, Peugeot 307 and Ford Mondeo. Most of the vehicles mentioned come with air conditioning, power steering and a radio/CD player.

When renting a vehicle, it is also important to consider which type of vehicle you are used to driving, as they can have an automatic transmission or a stick-shift (manual) transmission. Drivers who are only familiar with an automatic car should perhaps ensure that they hire from the Automatics category offered by Marbesol, as driving in unfamiliar territory can be daunting enough, without the need to ‘learn to drive’ all over again. Some vehicles with an automatic transmission for hire include the Peugeot 207, Peugeot 307 and Ford Mondeo. Larger vehicles available from Marbesol are found in the Family and Minibus categories, and are ideal for those in need of space for luggage, or for groups of travelers. Family vehicles are generally estates, such as the Peugeot 307 Wagon and Ford Focus C-Max, and Minibuses include the Ford Galaxy, seating up to seven passengers and the Mercedes Vito, with room for up to nine people. Larger vehicles are more expensive than the smaller variety.

Additional services which may be available from Marbesol, at Ibiza Airport, are the rental of child seats or satellite navigation systems, one way hires and hand controls for disabled drivers. A one way hire from Ibiza Airport is a good option for travelers who will not be returning to their vehicle pick-up location, and who wish to return their hired car to an alternative Marbesol rental office. While a one way hire may add a few Euro to your rental, hand controls for disabled drivers are offered free of charge by the majority of car hire companies, and are ideal for drivers who have lower limb disability challenges. At Ibiza Airport, hand controls and any other additional item of equipment should be booked as early as possible, to ensure their availability for your car hire period.

Marbesol, and the other car hire companies at Ibiza Airport, require the primary renter to be at least 21 years of age, and to show a valid drivers license upon collection of the vehicle. The renter, and additional drivers, must have had their license in their country of residence for at least a year prior to the rental date. An International Driving Permit may also be required for foreign renters, or for customers with a local license that is printed in a non-Roman alphabet. However, although Marbesol may not require an IDP, it is required by Spanish law, and should therefore be arranged before your departure flight to Ibiza Airport.

All further details are available from Marbesol’s website, at www.marbesol.com, or customers can contact Marbesol directly, at Ibiza Airport.
