I want to share my wonderful experience! It was my first driving experience abroad! And my first car rental. I'm a girl and I'm 23 years old! I'm traveling alone) When I received the Nissan Micra, I was pleasantly surprised by the condition of the car! The car was like new! Both visually and in operation! They accepted the car in about 30 seconds! Very fast 👍The only thing I want to warn drivers right away so that they don't make mistakes like me - when driving down serpentines on an automatic, use the "L" mode - engine braking! Otherwise, you will encounter overheating of the brakes due to the peculiarities of the terrain of the beautiful island! 😍 and also, look in advance where you can park in the cities and where you can't, study this issue in advance, so that in fact it will be easier ☺️Now I want to share photos with this beautiful baby 🚘My experience was unforgettably cool! Take the car, it's very convenient! 😍 I can confidently recommend this car rental company!)

We booked in advance for our holiday in Caniço and it was a really good experience. The car was in very good condition, clean and well maintained. The reservation was confirmed via WhatsApp and we got a reminder a day before the reservation date. Returning the car was also fast and easy, thanks to Luísa 🙏Obrigado and see you next time!

We had already looked for a car rental company at home and booked online a few months in advance. Everything went smoothly from pick-up to drop-off! A very friendly lady. We had a Seat Arona automatic. Very clean inside... In short, we can only recommend it.

I really enjoyed the experience of renting a car with this company. The car was new and clean, carplay was available, which made life easier. The car was given to us right at the airport and picked up at the place we indicated ourselves. I recommend it!

This is the second time we've rented a car from Girassol, after being completely satisfied with our first Madeira vacation. Pickup and drop-off at the airport were uncomplicated and seamless this time as well. The team is super friendly, and communication is quick and easy, even via WhatsApp. Both times, the cars were in excellent condition. I would recommend booking full insurance, so you don't even have to pay a deposit. I highly recommend Girassol and would book with them again if I come back to Madeira 🌻

We are extremely happy by your excellent service in helping us in all areas of needs in driving, all the great advice of roundabouts driving rules in Madiera and the importance of using hand brake for safety. The car we rented is excellent and the price we paid for it is very very reasonable that we really get more than we paid for. We will not hesitate to recommend your company for anyone especially to our relatives and friends. Thanks for everything and especially Ivan , we appreciate you very much!

The service was perfect, our questions were answered quickly, toke car at night from airport. Car was as described. Highly recommend.
I rented a car for one week, and everything went smoothly. It was a brilliant experience — easy pick-up and drop-off at the airport. Communication with the company was excellent throughout. The car was almost brand new, with only 3,000 km on the odometer and an automatic transmission. We drove 1,200 km without any issues. Even on steep hills, the 1.0L engine performed well.I recommend getting full insurance, even if you’re a very careful driver. Some people drive manual cars and struggle with hills. We had a minor accident in a parking lot — someone rolled back into our car. The rental company’s response was quick and professional. No one was injured. We took some photos, described the situation, and the company handled everything.I also saw someone hit another car in the parking lot and just leave without saying anything. So save yourself the stress — go with full insurance.I would definitely recommend this company 👍
