Hi I'm new to this site, Record Rent A Car have all three of your requirments.

 

[Disorderly]

Rent a car Goldcar will tick all those boxes. This is the firm we most regularly use, on airport, decent cars, own website.

Of course there are folk out there who will have had a bad experience with a particular company that will have put them off (a bit like restaurants!) but we've used this lot countless times at Palma, and at Malaga too, and no problems so far.

There's no excess, they will allow younger drivers too. I recommend that you pay the extra wheel/tyre cover offered at the car hire desk. It's the only extra, but saved me 186 Euros when we had a blowout this summer.

I'd be very interested to learn what you decide, and how your experience was.

Have a good trip.

Having used Carjet for years , we swapped to Record this winter as we wanted to buy our own petrol rather than be forced into paying an extortionate amount for a tank full that we might not even use on a quick winter break

Have used record several times this year and they have never disappointed ........ only minor issue was a bit f a queue in July ( that said, I still had the car sorted out before the last of our luggage was off the carousel, so nothing to moan at really

Can't see me ever using anyone else now, have even joined the Record loyalty scheme and started to amass points which will probably give me a 10euro discount after a few years lol

Hi,
New to the site. Visited the area in June, back next week.
The only advise I have from June is if you use Hertz (their basic rate looks good) do not :take their insurance excess cover, you must have your own. It is legal robbery.....but sometimes you discover to late.
I've just taken annual excess cover out with Insurance4carhire.com - looks good.
But I will never use Hertz again !

Hi
As we are a party of 6 - we usually hire a people carrier which can be quite expensive. We usually have a drink on the plane & so the dedicated driver misses out.
Recently we have booked through through Europcar to collect our vehicle in the port the day after we arrive & we book by email with Alicia at Zarza taxis to collect us which is around €100 for their large taxi.
They collect us at the meeting point & we are usually in our villa 50 minutes after collecting our cases.
No waiting around & a very relaxed way to arrive
