Centauro Rent a Car reviews in Spain

Lewis Clarke

I decided to rent a car here due to the positive reviews and was not disappointed! I submitted all my paperwork online (passport, driving license etc) so it was a breeze when I arrived. The car was a modern Kia, with carplay and extremely clean. The staff were very helpful when I forgot to add a car seat to the booking! I decided to drop off at the airport for a fee, as it worked out better for me to collect from this location. Drop off was so easy, no issues whatsoever and fuel refunded. Some top tips for people wanting to rent... renting cars at airports always seems hard work - i purposefully chose to rent here instead of the airport as it happened to also work better for me (still returned to airport for a fee). Always go direct through the company, instead of agencies to avoid hidden fees etc. I have used a lot of rental companies with lots of varying issues, but will definitely be using Centauro again thanks to this pleasant rental! :)

I have been a happy customer of Centauro at Alicante Airport for over two years now, and I couldn't be more satisfied with their service. Unlike many other rental companies, Centauro stands out for its transparency—there are no hidden costs, no pressure to upsell, and what you see is truly what you get. Their fleet is consistently updated with new, well-maintained vehicles, ensuring a smooth and comfortable drive every time. As someone who visits Spain regularly, I have tried other rental companies at the airport, but none compare to the straightforward and reliable service Centauro offers. The staff is always friendly, efficient, and professional, making the pick-up and drop-off process a breeze. If you're tired of being pushed into expensive add-ons or dealing with unclear rental terms, I highly recommend Centauro at Alicante Airport. They've earned my loyalty as my go-to car rental service in Spain.

I rented the car on the website, the rental process was simple and well explained. At the reception the staff was very prompt and the waiting time very short, 1-2 minutes. The car was in excellent condition, with few kilometers on board. Similarly, when returning the car, the process took a short time and we were picked up by the shuttle bus to the airport. I will definitely be back for another rental.

Amazing experience. Among the few car rental companies that you can trust, and they don't scam you. Both check-in and return took less than 3 minutes. Car was in great condition, and my fuel deposit was fully returned literally 2 days after returning the car

First, we booked the car in category F4A (intermediate SUV) directly from the Centauro website one month in advance. The price was EUR 406 including the premium package for 8 days rental and was a discount of EUR 54 over the normal price. Why do I give a price? If you start looking for a car in Mallorca, you get many prices for the same car and platforms or travel agents sometimes charge more. Second, we scanned all our details (passport driver's license) in the Centauro ID which you can create online. This eventually speeds up the process when you're collecting your car. Another thing is that it's very difficult to miss the location where the shuttle is located. Walking towards the parking garage you see all the shuttles buses from the rental agencies on your right, just before the entrance of the parking lot. Our shuttle bus was parked nearby and is easy to spot given the yellow colour. We were lucky and could hop on the bus as the driver waited. After a few minutes (and when the bus was full) he drove us to the Centauro parking lot next to the airport (and conveniently next to the Repsol petrol station). We went into the office and were fortunate to have only one person before us. The staff speak English (at least the employee we had) but as we speak Spanish we switched to Spanish. As we already scanned our documents, the employee quickly checked the passport and driver's license and asked for the deposit for fuel. If you read the conditions before , you know they're going to ask for this deposit (thus why some people get excited over this, I don't understand). The employee quickly provided us the keys and the place where the car was located. You book a car category, thus the car you get doesn't need to be the same as the car advertised. In our case, the Skoda Karoq turned out to be an Opel Garland. However both are in the same vehicle class (F4A, intermediate SUV Automatic). The car was spotless from the outside and also the interior was completely clean. We did notice some small scratches on the car but filmed and made photographs of everything. Moreover, the car was indeed completely full of gas and on we went. As we needed to pick someone else up from the airport we went to the, by the Centauro employee recommended place. We didn't have any issues with the car thus didn't need to contact Centauro during our stay. They provide a small leaflet with the most important traffic rules and I would recommend reading it as there are cameras checking for speed on the island and one can easily park in a place where it is not allowed. After our holiday we drove to the Centauro parking lot. Just before you're there, there is a petrol station where you can fill the car up till it's full. We did this and drove to the Centauro parking lot. After we parked the car, a Centauro employee looked quickly and told us almost immediately that everything was OK and that we could head for the shuttle bus, which was waiting. The whole process took only a few minutes before we were in the shuttle but to the airport. In short, we had a very pleasant experience with Centauro in Mallorca and would recommend them. Moreover, I would recommend booking with them directly and take the premium option as without you need to post a bigger deposit. Personally the few extra Euro was worth the hassle. Moreover, if you take premium, you get one additional driver for free (something which costs a lot at some other car rental agencies). Also check if rates have changed as it seems that rates can be much lower if they have an offer (and I noticed that these offers also change regularly)

We rented a car for 2 days ( Saturday & Sunday ) full coverage unlimited kilometers for only €124 + €121 Full tank gas. They gave us an option if we give back the car full tank they will give us back the money € 121 so we did. We brought the car full tank ( theres a gasoline station 1.5 km away from The garage and they said 3km gas is allowed to use until we reach the garage. We recieved the Gas money in 4 days. We used the car to benidorm on Saturday & Valencia on Sunday it only cost us €50 Petrol. I love the service of Centauro! & all the employess in Alicante branch are very professional, hospitable kind and available!! We will rent again! No hassle good offer!

Can't recommend this company highly enough. Hired a car from Faro taking out the premium no excess insurance. On the second day of hire we were unfortunately involved in an accident on the motorway. Centauro's response was above and beyond anything we expected. The car was un-drivable and after a call to their assistance number the fantastic people at the Centauro call centre arranged for the car to be recovered and also sent a taxi to our location on the motorway to take us the 20+ miles back to our hotel. They also then arranged for a taxi to collect us from our hotel the following day to take us to Seville (as that was actually nearer to our hotel than Faro) to collect a new car. The lady who dealt with us in Seville was waiting for our arrival and was absolutely brilliant. We completed the rest of our holiday dropping off the car back in Faro. The accident could have completely ruined our holiday but all the guys at Centauro went above and beyond to prevent that and I can't thank them enough.

As easy as it gets. Took the basic insurance, had some minor damage and got my fuel deposit back the same day without hesitation. Friendly staff & very easy and quick handover to and from the car. Recommendation alert!

I've used Centauro Car Hire at Malaga Airport several times, and each experience has been excellent. I've even recommended them to friends and family, and they've had great experiences too! Their cars are always new, well-maintained, and in perfect condition, which is a huge plus. The return policy is absolutely fantastic and makes the whole process so much easier. The staff are always friendly and welcoming, adding a nice personal touch to the service. They also offer convenient transportation from the airport to their location, which makes the whole experience smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend Centauro for a reliable and pleasant car rental experience!

Jannine Lunney

We would definitely use Centauro again. We booked on line which saved loads of time when picking up the car. We had a Linksand Co suv which was amazing to drive and very economical being a hybrid. The office, very close to the station was very easy to find. The staff were excellent and very friendly with no hard sell for extras. Very competitive prices and I would say very good value. Thanks to everyone at Centauro.

Brian Walsh

What a super friendly and professional organisation. Picked up from the Airport in a branded yellow bus and droped to my waiting car at the office - no delays. Car was perfect. No navigating out of the airport as we were straight onto the mororway. Fuel deposit refunded on the same day - no funny tricks that some other car companies try. Highly reccomended.

Rick Dodds

Great car, staff, price. How often do I have no complaints about a car rental? As an American non-Spanish speaker it was all very easy. No hassles at all.

Miu Sebastian

Everything went very well. The bus came in 5 minutes and the entire rental process in 5 minutes. The car was new and very well equipped.

David Castro

I had a great experience with Centauro. I needed a car for a day trip and I completed the whole process from the phone and in 5-10m, from the account registering to the full confirmation. I also signed up in a matter of minutes to Fastkey by providing digitally my ID and that was the best decision ever. When I went to pick up the car directly to the parking lot I realized how much time I saved after I glanced at a big queue in the offices. I also returned the car in the same way and only invested 5m returning the keys. Overall a really great experience and I will definitely repeat.

sharone fajardo

The best car rental ever -- in all aspects! I'm so happy with it that I will never consider other car rentals ever!

Garreth Nunn

My insurance gives me a substitute car if my car needs to go into the garage and last week I needed to use that service. The first time I have ever used Centauro and the experience was great. Attended by an extremely nice gentleman in reception, who explained everything perfectly. The car was perfect and extremely clean and it was brand new. Brought it back and it was the same. Great service, everything clearly explained and no problems at all. Recommend them highly

Lourdes Mera Sanchez-Rubio

Mags Nik

My best car-rental experience so far. The booking procedure on there website is very simple, had by far the best options to choose from, I did appreciate the possibility to upload all the documents before hand to speed up the procedure. Very friendly staff at the office, very quick. The full coverage insurance was already included in the price, which I find just amazing, absolutely hate this part debating over which insurance to pay. Also no need to turn into sherlock holmes and look for any scratches with my portable microscope. The car was clean, new, in perfect shape, with built-in navigation, only car play didn't unfotunately work. We paid 103€ deposit for the fuel and you are free to return the car with how much fuel you wish, no need to bother refueling if you are in a hurry, the will simply refund you less. We did return in the center of the city and simply parked the car in parking lot and dropped the keys in a box. Absolutely perfect.

Sergey Rufanov

The pick up was fast, the employee was nice and described all the details. There was free upgrade of the car to more expensive option, which was new and a pleasure to drive. Even though we returned the car slightly after the office was closed, there were no problems with that as it's possible just to put keys in a box at parking. Overall, very positive experience.

Maru Garre

Our experience hiring a car could not have been better. Everything was organised quickly and with everything very well explained. The car was spotless and smelled really well. We had no problem whatsoever and the car drove nice and smoothly. The attention was perfect. I can't praise it enough!!!

Mal J

Easy check in Very friendly and received a lot of advice that helped us on our itinerary Car park is a bit tight but close to petrol for end of hire refill Highly recommended

Rennie Debattista

Rented a car for 5 days and got picked up from the airport with their shuttle bus, only waited about 20 mins. Collecting the car at the office was very efficient and were soon on our way. Very good quality car, just like new. Dropping off the car was also easy and again taking us back to the airport on their bus.

Lucia Šebestová

I had a great experience with Centauro. We had come 2 hours earlier and we could not wait. The staff were friendly and gave us car immediately. Returning the car was very quickly too and after few days, we received the fuel deposit back. I highly recommended.
