Rental Car
We highly recommend using CarGest for your car rental during your stay in Marbella. Cars can be booked via their website (click on view button below) and payment is made on the day of car collection. Please note a second payment (security deposit) is also taken on the day of pick up and is refunded to you following return of the car. If using CarGest, when leaving Malaga airport, walk straight down towards the train station, you will see a man with a CarGuest Clipboard and red t-shirt- give them your name and he will arrange a mini bus pick up for you to take you to their office and pick up your car.
