Great service. Polite managers. Good car park. I rented a diesel Arona, which is well suited for the steep climbs of Madeira. Reasonable prices. I highly recommend it.

Greeting! I thought others might be interested in my Madeira rental experience. First of all, a cheap car is not always a good choice. He brought it to us in such a way that we didn't have the basic cars left, but in the end we didn't mind at all. Full insurance is not provided in very few places, even though they say it is, but there is no damage to the glass (a pebble can hit the windshield at any moment), the cheaply rented car will be very expensive. At Girassol, we rented a small diesel BMW and it may suddenly seem expensive, but it is sold with comprehensive actual insurance. On these roads, small gasoline cars are weak and consume much more if we want to approach mountain tours.I recommend this rental company, we have visited all of them in the area. Thank you Olga for your help!

Price-performance is very good. The employees are very friendly and the pick-up and return is easy. Our vehicle was in very good condition. We had a very well-equipped Seat Arona automatic for 7 days, which we enjoyed driving even in the mountains.We can definitely recommend the car rental company.

For a two-day trip across the beautiful island of Madeira, we looked for inexpensive car rental companies in our hotel and in the surrounding area. This is where I came across the Girassol car rental company. The website is also available in German and so I texted the number via WhatsApp, as offered on the website. I received an answer within a few minutes and two offers have already been sent to me via WhatsApp. I then reserved a rental car for the next day on the same day and paid for it straight away. Unfortunately, due to my last-minute decision, there was “only” a Seat Arona available, which would actually have been too big for me and my girlfriend. However, as a last resort, we took advantage of this offer and picked it up the next day. The vehicle was in new condition due to the 2600 km it had on the clock at the time. No scratches, no dents and no stains on the interior. All vehicles from this car rental company are automatic transmissions, including this one. This paid off after just a few hundred meters through the steep streets of this island. The car was easy to maneuver on the narrow roads and the average consumption was around 8 liters per 100 km. Despite the island's extreme topography, this is very low consumption. After the rental period, I brought the car back with around 350 km more and the rental lady looked at the car again. Explaining the contract, signing it and returning the vehicle only took around 10-15 minutes. All the employees I spoke to spoke good English and some also good German. All in all, I had a quick transaction, a top vehicle, top employees and no hidden costs. If I go on holiday to Madeira again, I will get a rental car from Girassol again.

Absolutely recommended!We had a rental car (Seat Arona) from Girassol during our stay in Madeira. The car was in good condition, reliable and perfect for exploring the island with four people. I would particularly like to highlight the great service provided by Olga - she was very helpful and available to answer any questions. The entire process, from pickup to return, was uncomplicated and professional. I can absolutely recommend Girassol! We were 100% satisfied and would book our rental car here again.

The car was delivered to us at the arrivals terminal of Funchal airport. The car is in perfect condition, clean and practically new, with automatic transmission. Very kind and punctual staff, to whom we renew our thanks. Upon return, no problems with the quick check. A more than positive experience, which we will certainly repeat next time. And a special thanks to Sofia.

We rented a Smart Forfour for 6 days to drive around the island. It got us wherever we wanted, with no problem whatsoever. Very pleasant and easy to drive, and its small size made parking and maneuvering trouble-free, which is incredibly important on the winding roads of Madeira. GIRASSOL was overall a great experience that I would definitely recommend to anyone eager to explore the island !
Everything is fine. Beautiful, new car. beautiful people. Thank you!

Everything went great, handover at the airport on time, all damage was documented. Staff super nice and friendly. The vehicle (Ibiza) was great, very well maintained, sufficiently motorized and had almost 26 thousand. Kilometre. Automatic on Madeira is highly recommended and is offered as standard here. Return just as easy. I have already reserved the next vehicle. I can only recommend . By far the best car rental I have had in Madeira so far.

We rented a car from here on our recent trip to Madeira and had an outstanding experience from start to finish. The booking process was incredibly straightforward, with clear instructions and no hidden fees. Upon arrival, Sofia helped us get started, she was welcoming and efficient, she answered all our questions patiently and made sure we felt comfortable with the car before we were off.The car itself was in pristine condition, both clean and well-maintained. It performed great throughout the trip and we didn’t have any problems. The vehicle's features were modern and user-friendly, very easy to get used to.Returning the car was just as easy as picking it up. The drop-off process was quick, and Sofia was again very helpful and friendly. I was pleasantly surprised by how seamless the entire rental experience was.Overall, I highly recommend them for anyone in need of a rental car. Their exceptional service, quality vehicle, and hassle-free process made my trip enjoyable and stress-free. I'll definitely be using their services again in the future!

We rented a car in Caniço from Girassol for ten days. We had very friendly, German-speaking email contact beforehand. All questions were clarified in advance. And we got the car delivered to the hotel and it was picked up again. The car was almost new, very well maintained and clean, and took us safely across the island of Madeira without any problems. We would like to thank the friendly team at Girassol and we can recommend you 100%!Anke and Mario

Almost new car with 2000km.The staff is smiling, professional and welcoming! Everything was smooth.Clearly, we will choose Girassol again for our return to Madeira!

Girassol is the perfect company to rent a car from while visiting Madeira. The car was dropped off at our hotel by Luisa, who was very kind, patient and helpful. The car was so clean that, before we saw the mileage, we honestly thought it was brand new 🙂 Communication went mainly through WhatsApp, which was very fast and convenient. When we couldn’t figure out how to get the phone navigation on the screen, they replied within 1 minute and guided us through it until we got it working. They were also very flexible when we asked if we could extend our rental period with 2 more days and when we had to change the pick up location that we agreed on beforehand. The new contract and payment for this extension were arranged within a couple of hours, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. We will definitely rent a car from Girassol again when we go back to Madeira ???

For my vacation in Madeira I rented a car (Smart ForFour) for 7 days through GIRASSOL. Booking was very easy via the corresponding website. Confirmation of the booking and the deposit payment were received promptly. I picked up the car at the airport in a very clean condition and with a full tank. The contract was explained to me again. The car had no visible defects. It was an automatic car and perfect for the steep roads in Madeira. The drop-off took place again at the airport, where I was received at the agreed time. Communication was always very friendly. Everything was perfect!! I would rent a car here again.For my vacation in Madeira I rented a car for 7 days through GIRASSOL.

An excellent service, if you have any questions you can contact the company via WhatsApp and they will respond immediately. Polite and pleasant people. I recommend everyone to use the services of this car rental company. At the end of my vacation, I arrived at the airport on time, where a representative of the company was waiting for me. There I handed over the keys and said goodbye?

Very good service, good advice and friendly staff. Rent cars with automatic transmission, which is definitely an advantage in the mountainous terrain. We had a Seat Ibiza and were really well served with it. Very clean. Previous damage was assessed together, including upon delivery. You get the car with a full tank and return it with a full tank. There is no mileage limit. There are definitely cheaper offers, but we were so satisfied that we would rent a car there again at any time.

Highly recommended car hire company. We wanted a car at short notice and Girassol communicated immediately via out of hours WhatsApp chat and arranged drop off and pick up from our hotel for the next day. The Micra was a clean, low mileage automatic which carried 4 adults comfortably and sufficiently powered to cope with the Maderian hills. The fee was fully inclusive of insurance and no deposit required. The staff were lovely and a delight to deal with.

Girassol is a great service for renting a car during your vacation. I rented Smart for four, with full insurance and the place where I picked up the car was the airport, it’s convenient, I recommend it. Always take full insurance, in our case someone scratched the mirror while the car was in the parking lot. This did not cause any inconvenience, the company sorts everything out itself, and you just enjoy your vacation.
