I had great experience renting a car for my trip! Booked in advance with only 15% paid upfront, and the rest on-site-very convenient. The car was delivered right to airport, and everything was fast and well organized.
A special thanks to Luísa for being so helpful and quick to respond throughout the whole process. Really recommend!

I highly recommend this car rental company. The prices are quite reasonable. They offer a pick-up and drop-off service right at your accommodation, which is great if you need it in Funchal. We had two issues, and they resolved them immediately, assisting us within an hour. Overall, excellent.

I recommend renting an automatic car with full insurance in Madeira!

Great experience with GIRASSOL! We especially appreciated that all the cars are automatic, which makes driving on Madeira so much easier. Even in peak season, we managed to find a car, and it was clean, well-maintained and worked perfectly throughout our trip.

The staff were also really friendly, professional and helpful. Everything was easy and stress-free. Definitely recommend GIRASSOL if you're renting a car in Madeira! 🌴

I can extremely highly recommend Girassol to anyone looking to rent a car in Madeira. The entire experience was exceptional, especially for a first time renting a car abroad. The team are really responsive and friendly on WhatsApp, and were enthusiastic about us having a great holiday. Girassol made the whole rental process smooth and seamless. The car we rented (an automatic Seat Ibiza) was in top condition and handled Madeira's most difficult mountain roads with ease, as well as being a pleasure to drive. Everything was clearly explained, the prices were reasonable (we opted for the full insurance), and we felt we could trust them fully throughout the booking. The team are a credit to themselves and to the beautiful island of Madeira, and we are very grateful to everyone at Girassol for a wonderful time. Obrigado!
