Car rental in Mallorca:
Simple. Clear. On site.
Why rent a car in Mallorca?
Your direct access to mobility on the island - with Sunny Cars.
Public transportation is irregular, especially outside of Palma. Cabs are limited - especially away from the tourist centers or at off-peak times.
A rental car gives you the opportunity to discover Mallorca at your own pace:
Stop when a viewpoint calls. Turn back if the route is more beautiful than the destination. Continue when the restaurant is full or the child is asleep.
It is this freedom that makes your trip to the island easier, more relaxed - and more honest.
🧭 Another reason: route diversity & local knowledge
Those who only know Mallorca as a bathing island underestimate its size: it is around 120 kilometers from Cap Formentor to Cap de Ses Salines - a logistical challenge without a car.
What's more, many of the places that make Mallorca special are located offside.
- The finca you have booked is 5 km from the nearest supermarket.
- The weekly market in Sineu is charming, but crowded early - without a car this means getting up very early.
- The most beautiful bays are rarely accessible by bus - and parking spaces disappear quickly.
A rental car means: Plannable. Flexible. Stress-free. And: independent of cab fares, seasonal times and bus schedules.
Our recommendation:

- All kilometers free
- Comprehensive cover worldwide (including fully comprehensive cover, reimbursement of excess)

The right car for your trip to Mallorca
All models are modern, air-conditioned and well-maintained. With us, you don't just book any car - but one that suits your trip.
Not every route requires the same car. And not every travel group travels the same way.
If you are traveling with light luggage, a maneuverable city car will get you through the alleyways of Valldemossa. If you are planning a round trip or traveling with four people, you will need space.
It is therefore a good idea to book via isla-travel.com/car-rental choose from different vehicle categories - depending on what you have in mind.
These vehicle types are particularly popular:
- Small car - Ideal for narrow old towns and day trips
- Convertibles - when the coastal road can also mean a headwind
- SUVs & Jeeps - for tours through the Tramuntana mountains or gravel paths
- Family vans & 7-seater - if more than four people are traveling
- Electric vehicles - increasingly available, especially in metropolitan areas
Rental car classes: What does "Economy", "Compact" or "Intermediate" actually mean?
The designations such as Economy, Compact or Intermediate are Rental car classes - they do not stand for a specific model, but for a group of vehicles with similar characteristics (e.g. size, performance, comfort).
In the Sunny Cars booking system you can see Example vehiclesso that you can get an idea of what to expect.
Here is an overview of the most popular categories:
💡 Economy & Compact
Perfect for couples or small families with little luggage. Maneuverable, economical, ideal for short distances or city trips. Also for families with little luggage and special cost awareness.
Typical models: Citroën C3, VW Polo, VW Golf, Fiat 500, Toyota Yaris, Hyundai i20, and many more.
Labeling in the booking system: Micro and small cars, convertibles in the compact, medium and luxury categories
SUVs & off-road vehicles
If you want to go into the mountains - for example to Sa Calobra or the Ermita de Betlem - an SUV is a good choice.
Not because of the terrain, but because of the Ground clearance, overview and safety on winding roads.
SUVs are also a convenient choice for families transporting a lot of luggage or planning trips inland.
Typical models: Nissan Juke SUV, Hyundai Tucson SUV, VW T-Roc SUV, Lynk & Co 01 Hybrid SUV
Labeling: lower middle class, middle class car, upper class, SUV
Family vehicles &
7-seater
That's why the Sunny Cars range also includes spacious Vans, 7-seaters and vehicles with optional child seatswhich can be added with just a few clicks.
You can see all the important information about seats, luggage volume and optional extras directly when you book.
Typical models: Peugeot Rifter Minivan, Renault Scenic, Opel Vivaro, etc.
Labeling: Lower middle class, middle class, lower upper class car, minivan
And of course there are other classes - from Mini until Luxury segment, from SUV until 9-seater van. The decisive factor is:
Choose your class not only by price, but also by journey duration, route and number of passengers. Traveling more comfortably means arriving more relaxed.
👉 Tips:
We recommend this for round trips or vacations with many stops, Do not calculate too tightly - especially with child seats or bulky luggage.
Remember that there is room for 4 adults in a small car. But if you each bring a 20 kg suitcase, 2 people will probably arrive at the accommodation without suitcases if you have rented a small car together from the airport: so always book a class higher rather than realizing afterwards that there is not enough space for your luggage.
Where can you
pick up the rental car?
Most vacationers depart from Palma Airport. The handover counters are located directly in the terminal. Alternatively, Sunny Cars delivers the vehicle to the hotel - this is particularly practical for families or long-term vacationers.
Tip: In high summer, it is worth booking early - many vehicle categories are booked out quickly.
Sunny Cars offers you 14 stations on Mallorca. An overview can be found here
🌿 Rent electric & hybrid vehicles
traveling quietly on the island
More and more travelers are consciously opting for electric cars - even on vacation. Particularly around Palma, in Sóller or Inca, there are now Charging stations in urban areas or at larger hotels.
Ideal for short distances, quiet driving and anyone who wants to travel in a climate-friendly way.
👉 Tip: If you drive an electric car, you can park in some municipalities free of charge or preferred - depending on local regulations.
