We recently rented a car, and the entire experience was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we picked up the vehicle to the time we returned it, everything was seamless and enjoyable. The car itself was in perfect condition—clean, comfortable, and very easy to drive. It made our trip so much more enjoyable, allowing us to explore beautiful places with ease.The rental conditions were very favorable, with clear terms and no hidden fees. The process was smooth and hassle-free, making our vacation even more relaxing. Thanks to this car, we were able to travel freely, visit stunning locations, and truly enjoy every moment of our trip.We highly recommend this car rental service to anyone looking for a stress-free and pleasant experience. Thank you for making our trip unforgettable!

Serious and friendly. We had rented an automatic car and this is not a luxury in Madeira given the many steep slopes on the island. No regrets.

05:56 17 Feb 25

Reserve your car easily online and receive information immediately via WhatsApp. Office just 5 minutes walk from RIU Madeira. Friendly and serious employees. Recommended!

16:27 11 Feb 25

Top small rental car company. Simply reserve a day in advance via WhatsApp. Picked up very quickly the next day. Car was great and very well maintained and we had no problems the entire time. The return was also very easy and quick. I can only recommend it. Thank you for everything

Recently rented a car in Madeira and it was one of the best experiences ever! The booking process was quick and hassle-free. The car was in perfect condition – clean, new and with a full tank. I especially liked that the car was perfectly adapted to the winding roads of the island, which made trips as comfortable and safe as possible.Thanks to the rental car, I was able to see all the most beautiful corners of Madeira, including hard-to-reach places that are difficult to reach by public transport. Without a doubt, I recommend this service to everyone who wants to get the most out of their trip!

17:30 07 Feb 25

Great smart car we rented from Girassol.Nearly new, clean and all that's needed(meaning the power of a smart car) for Madeira. Trust me, you need a small car on the tiny roads of the villages and an automatic of course. We mentioned on our trip more than once " Thanks god its automatic and tiny" 😅The company is helpful and friendly, I would rent again from them no doubt.

11:26 07 Feb 25

The pick was flawless. They waited for us at the airport with a sign, then walked us to the car. The car was brand and well maintained. The staff were kind and professional. Will definitely use them again on our next trip to Madeira.

16:16 06 Feb 25

I have to be honest, choosing the cheapest company is not what I normally do as they tend to be cheap for a reason.However Girassol have been absolutely brilliant, which to be honest, is quite rare with car rental companies in general from my experience.From the ease of booking with Vlad and Alberto on hand to sort anything out, they really have been a great company and would use them again.If you have any issues, they respond on What’s app quickly.The car was a Seat Ibiza, Auto and was presented cleaned and with a full tank.Now tips for UK drivers coming to Madeira and driving for the first time.Locals: They know the roads, you don’t.Don’t hog the fast lane as they will not just be up your backside on the main roads, they will be so close, you won’t see their headlights.They tend to be BMW, Audi and have crap spoilers on their cars, or lowered.Roundabouts: They’re different to the UK.Unless you’re taking the first turn off, don’t stay in the outside lane.Soon as you enter the roundabout, go to the inside and they filter off on your turn. It sounds odd, but is better than the UK system.Slips Road: or more so lack of the slip road.Don’t think every slip road joining a A-road type will have one. Some times they are just like a giveaway junction and it’s weird.Sat Nav: Your Sat Nat will do it’s best to torture you and send you up 30-40 degree village passes where you will learn the width of your car quickly and what a drop off verge looks like.Stay on ER roads, they may be a little longer but easier.Finally, use Girassol as they offer Auto’s only.Truest me, a manual clutch here is pointless unless you just love hill starts and burning clutches out.

Very helpful and friendly staff. The car was excellent.

At the turn of January and February we had the pleasure of using the rental company's services. We picked up a clean Seat Ibiza which, due to its automatic transmission; small size and sufficient power, it is perfect for exploring Madeira. The car is fresh, has 17k kilometers and has performed flawlessly. Contact with the rental company is hassle-free. Full insurance, no deposit. Pickup and return takes just a few minutes, and formalities are also smooth. I sincerely recommend it and thank Mrs. Luiza and other employees for their polite and professional service 🙂

I have been using cars from this company for half a year now. I like punctuality, attentiveness, cleanliness of cars. But what I like most is the fair price for renting a car, especially for the early period. I am satisfied with everything and always recommend it to my friends.

I recommend it, we received a new and fully functional car, professional service, very nice gentleman. The automatic transmission on the island works perfectly. If I were to recommend it, it's a small car, which makes parking easier. Definitely a 10/10 rental.

This was my first time renting a car, so I don’t have experience to compare. But I am absolutely satisfied – clean car, friendly staff, everything is good. I took Smart Forfour and it was perfect in Madeira, even on mountain roads

09:16 01 Feb 25

Everything was great🥰🥰🥰

My rating is 5+ stars. The car delivery from the moment I entered the office until I started the car took less than 10 minutes (the car was clean). Returning the car took up to 5 minutes (a quick inspection of the car and a full tank of fuel)The car was new with a mileage of 16 thousand km. Quite fast and economical. (Small scratches in Madeira on almost every car)When I read the reviews, I did not believe that the rating was 5 stars. (They definitely deserve it)It would be good if there was a car napkin in the car. I liked it, I recommend

Super guys! I recommend it to everyone!

15:06 25 Jan 25

Very nice and professional service. Possibility to pay by card when picking up the car. Cars only have automatic transmission, which is really useful in Madeira. Hassle-free collection of the car, clear and simple rental rules, I recommend!

16:12 24 Jan 25

I recommend. Professional and very nice service. Moreover, it's cheap and without a deposit. It is worth taking 3 days.

20:52 22 Jan 25

Excellent experience with this company. Staff extremely helpful and friendly. Very good prices compared to others in the area. Highly recommended.

Based on good reputation we chose this company to hire a car for our 10 days trip to Madeira. Metalic SEAT Arona with automatic gear was a perfect choice - was delivered to the airport on time, almost brand-new, nearly 15 000 km.We were a bit surprised how 1,0 TSi turbo could easily handle such a steep roads in Madeira, it was pretty enough and we had no issues.Communication with company was very effective, firstly we booked online putting security deposit to reserve the vehicle, then we discussed some further little questions via WhatsApp. Manager was on the phone and she replied to all our questions within a few hours.Definitely 5 stars and I could really recommend this company without hesitation. Thank youKindest Regards,Alexei

Great rental. The car is practically new, spotlessly clean. Nice service at the Canico office during rental and return. Everything explained, including traffic regulations and parking in Madeira.

Very uncomplicated and nice, great car! I would rent a car there again.

With Girassol we had the most pleasant car rental experience so far. Upon landing in Madeira, even though it was around midnight, we were met by a company employee who escorted us to the parking lot to the car. All the forms were filled in, the car in perfect condition (equipped with child seat as per our request). The whole pick-up process took less than 10 min. When handing over the car things went even smoother. We parked thecar at "departures" and by the time we unloaded the luggage the company employee came to retrieve the car. We had a Seat Ibiza, automatic gearbox, perfect for Madeirei's narrow and sloping streets. Thank you to the Girassol team, including the lady at the office who helped us on a Saturday with printing some documents 🙂
