Sample prices for a 7-day rental. Final price, deposit and terms are confirmed on Localrent.
No-deposit options
About a third of cars in Spain come with no deposit hold at pickup - look for the "No deposit" badge.
Full insurance
Zero-excess cover available on most cars - nothing taken from the deposit if something happens.
Airport & city pickup
Desks at the airport and in the city centre.
Free cancellation
Cancel free on most bookings, often up to 48 hours before pickup.
Most trips here are short coast runs on the N-332 plus the odd inland drive. Pick by group size and distance, not by looks.
Economy
Cheap to run and easy to park near the beach. Fine for two people staying in town.
Automatic
Easier in the airport traffic on the way down. Automatics are limited in Spain, so book early.
7-seater & van
For families or two couples sharing, with room for luggage on the run from the airport.
Luxury
For the longer Costa Blanca drives. Deposits run higher on premium groups.
Guardamar sits on the southern Costa Blanca at the mouth of the river Segura, with 11 kilometres of beach backed by a pine forest. The town itself is walkable - if you do not venture outside the town you do not need a car, as it is easy to walk everywhere. The value of car rental in Guardamar is reaching the rest of the coast and the inland towns on your own schedule rather than waiting for a bus that runs every few hours.
Guardamar has no airport of its own, so almost every booking starts at Alicante. The driving distance from Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) to Guardamar is about 20 miles, roughly 29 minutes down the N-332. The bus is slower and involves a change, which is the usual reason people hire a car for the week instead.
Payment and deposit
When you book you pay only a small upfront amount - usually 15-20% of the hire cost. The rest is settled at the desk on pickup. The deposit in most cases is fully refundable, and about a third of cars in Spain are handed over with no deposit at all - those are marked in the results. If you only have a debit card, pick a no-deposit rate or a cash-deposit option: nothing gets frozen on your card.
The southern Costa Blanca packs a lot into a short stretch of the N-332, so most drives are quick. Guardamar lies between Torrevieja and Santa Pola, with each its own day out and its own page below.
One pickup reaches all three and you can be back the same evening. That is why many visitors rent here even when they stay put in Guardamar for most of the week.
Guardamar has no low-emission zone, so there is no access rule to worry about in town - unlike Alicante and the bigger cities. Near the north end of the beach, by the lifeguard station, parking is usually not a problem to find. The dunes and Reina Sofía park sit right beside the centre, so you can leave the car and walk to the sand.
Quick checks at pickup
The cheapest rates and the widest choice are at Alicante Airport, which is the practical pickup point for Guardamar. From arrivals you join the N-338 and then the N-332 south, following signs for Santa Pola and Torrevieja, and take the CV-895 exit into Guardamar. Local suppliers you will see include Goldcar and Centauro. Either way, an no-deposit rate with full cover built in avoids a deposit hold.
The shoulder seasons are the easiest time to drive here - the swimming season lasts from April to November, and the quietest comfortable periods are June and early July, then late September and October. July and August are the peak: prices climb, automatics and 7-seaters go first, and the coast road gets busy, so book several weeks ahead. Winter is the cheapest stretch, and a car still earns its keep for the inland trips and golf once the beach crowds have gone.
About 32 km, or roughly 30 minutes by car down the N-332. From arrivals you join the N-338, then the N-332 south following Santa Pola and Torrevieja, and take the CV-895 exit into Guardamar.
No. Guardamar has no low-emission zone, so there is no access restriction in town.
If you drive into central Alicante, that city does have one, but cars rented in Spain carry the DGT sticker it requires, so a hire car can enter freely.
A credit card is not always required - it is needed to hold the security deposit. At pickup the supplier freezes the deposit amount on the card: the money is not charged and is released when you return the car undamaged.
Without a credit card you still have options: choose a cash-payment rate (the «Cash» filter option) or a no-deposit rate, and nothing is held.
The deposit is an amount the rental company holds as a guarantee for the car. Road fines or damage can be deducted from it.
If the car comes back without problems, the deposit is released in full. It is a temporary hold on your card, not a charge.
It depends on the car class and the supplier - you can see the exact amount on each car's card.
You can set a maximum deposit in the filter and the catalogue shows only matching offers. The lower you set it, the fewer cars remain.
Yes. To see cars with no deposit, use the «No deposit» filter option. There are also cars with a small deposit or cash payment.
Note that "no deposit" means no hold at pickup, not no booking payment - a small upfront amount is still taken when you book. If nothing suits, contact our support team.
The deposit is the amount frozen on your card at pickup and released when you return the car undamaged.
The excess is the part of any damage you pay yourself even with insurance - anything above it is covered by the insurer.
In practice, damage is taken from the deposit up to the excess, so the deposit is often set to match it. A full, zero-excess policy removes both: you do not pay for damage and the hold is usually waived.
Cover comes in levels:
You see the available rates on each car's card when booking.
If you would rather not depend on the deposit and excess, choose the full rate.
Yes, some cars can be paid in cash - use the «Cash» filter option.
You pay a small upfront amount by debit or credit card when booking (usually 15-20% of the total), and the rest in cash at pickup.
Yes, paying for the car with cryptocurrency is possible - contact our support team to arrange it.
Cross-border trips must be agreed with the supplier in advance. There may be a small service fee and extra insurance.
To see cars allowed across the border, use the filter option or contact our support team. Do not cross the border undeclared.
Yes. In the search, set a pick-up and a drop-off point - for example collect in Guardamar and return in Torrevieja or Alicante.
By default the car is returned to the same place you collected it.
Most are manual, as across Spain. Automatics cost more and sell out first, especially in summer, so book one early if you need it.
You need a passport, a driving licence and the rental voucher - the voucher can be shown on your phone or tablet.
It states the final price with your chosen options and insurance, so the amount due at the desk will not change.
To hire through our rental companies you need at least 2 years of driving experience.
