Drivalia at Malaga Airport

Pros: It was easy to comunicate with customer service. They reminded us all terms and conditions, rules about Gibraltar in short way and we could go.

Cons: A bit complicated to find a way on return, as navigation passed thru them 3 times :)

Pros: kind and helpful staff (when talking face-to-face), good car (few scratches but nothing serious)

Cons: time it took to get to the rental place and lack of response when called customer serv. We waited for over 30 mins for shuttle bus to arrive at pick up point. I called 3 numbers provided on the voucher but no one answered. There is only 1 car which carries customers from rental location to the airport and back. Driver doesn't do empty rides.

Pros: Lady was very nice and helpful, when l said l had changed my mind of early hours drop off to late the day before.

Cons: But l found it very hard to find how to get back to the place, the way of speed on roads weather and darkness, l could not find it till it was closed, l managed to find the late drop off and put the keys in the box. In hindsight I should have had sat nav

Pros: Nice friendly staff

Pros: Efficiency was !

Cons: Cleaning glass inside not done

Pros: Well maintained cars, clean and equipped with all the feature which you could require during the holiday. Reasonable prices, easy phone contact.

Cons: Poor shuttle service, we needed to wait for the bus at the airpot for more than 30 minutes; after return another 35 minutes, despite the second shuttle bus was available at the premises

Pros: mostly everything

Cons: nothing

Pros: quick pickup and dropoff process

Cons: The vehicle had small issues, from non working USB ports to lack of power overall. Difficult to drive up hills

Pros: Good desk agent experience and quick processing getting the car

Cons: Waited a long time at airport pick-up point to be brought to office (had to call after long wait) - maybe instruct customers to call once at pick-up and come straight away?

Cons: Shuttle driver was more interested in texting than taking care of customers. Rental lot was really hard to get back to.

Pros: Car was as described.

Cons: Made me pay a €1000 euro ‘negligence’ deposit which was not listed on the voucher.

Pros: Great experience thank u

Pros: Fast and easy

Pros: The service was very good, the car was good, about 25,000 km with minor dings. The price and value was excellent and the staff very professional

Cons: It was tricky to find the shuttle pick up at Malaga airport - this was most confusing. Also, unlike better known international car rental agencies, Drivalia was on on industrial estate a 5 minute drive from the airport. In the end neither of these was an issue - the car and the service were very good

Pros: Good to have hybrid car, lovely office

Cons: Car had damage, no signs at bus collection point, quite long wait for buses

Pros: Friendly service, good value

Cons: Slow pickup, car had sticker marks all over it upon pickup, only had quarter tank of gas so had to get expensive gas near airport.

Pros: Très bon service

Pros: Quite efficient. No waiting time for the shuttle bus.

Cons: It is situated a few minutes drive away from the airport.

Pros: Value for money.

Cons: Easy check in. Having to pay extra for Road Side Assistance (which I declined). I had excess cover, but this confused me. Surely if the car breaks down that should be your responsibility without asking for further payment.

Cons: I regret to choose this company Drivalia. Since day 1, I have a low oil level check and the car has no water for the wipers.

Pros: Friendly and helpful

Pros: Very good service

Cons: Nothing

Pros: I checked-in in advance and that saved time at the moment of pick-up

Cons: I had to spend time recording videos of the car condition as there where small scratches that were not mentioned in the rental contract. The company representatives were unavailable to update the contract with me, that is why I had to record a video.

Pros: A bit rude personnel (men), they take only credit cards, a bit demanding to get full insurance from them instead of Discovercars.com, saying that there may be problems with a deposit if car is scratched etc, but still all good 8 of 10

Pros: Super snel zowel bij ophalen en terugbrengen, aardig personeel.

Cons: We hadden een babystoeltje bijgeboekt. Konden kiezen uit 3 stoeltjes waarvan 1 helemaal kapot was en het piepschuim zichtbaar was. Daarnaast waren alle stoeltjes niet schoon. Dit zou zichtbaar verbeterd kunnen worden.

Pros: First class

Cons: Efficient

Pros: Simple process and helpful. I was upgraded to an estate version of the car that I had booked.

Pros: No fuss, efficient service without hard selling.

Pros: Everything

Cons: Will se when deposit will come back

Pros: Overall experience was ok, van did the job and drop off was so easy.

Cons: Pick up was a huge issue, a sassy representative who was not much help. With there not being any indication on where to add flight times, this was the main issue. I had mistakenly entered the incorrect flight arrival time so we were late, but with it being stated a "shuttle bus" we thought there would be no issue in taking us to the rental. She was rude and not helping with any alternatives. Until an hour later she took us to the car rental.

Pros: Clean car, friendly staff!

Cons: Would have been great if they had a specific queue for us that already completed the pre-check in online, in that way we didn't have to wait so long!

Pros: Very good service and shuttle. Would use again

Cons: Understanding the insurance

Pros: The rental agent was very dismissive once we turned down buying the extra insurance through the agency. Obviously, the agency dislikes providing service when the vehicle is booked through booking.com. That gives me second thoughts about using a third part site. I am concerned about the $1000.00 deposit as to whether the agency will try to apply charges that are unsubstantiated. They verbally said no at drop off.

Cons: The car was excellent and economical to drive.

Pros: Good car at a good price

Cons: It took allmost an hour to pick up the car - a huge line and not enogh staff to help

Pros: Friendly

Cons: Long wait at check in, probably due to staff shortages. Not a problem though.

Pros: Good service

Pros: Fast pick up

Cons: Did not answer the calls, needed to drive back (it took me extra 100 km drive) in order to get on hold, no apologies received

Pros: I could not change main diver without discovercar's permission and I have to pay pay extra cost.

Pros: Good service

Cons: Drivalia was not in the airport

Pros: Great service. Excellent car with all new features.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Best value for money, lovely fiat, we were picked up and dropped off by shuttle. Great drop off service. Car was checked in minutes at the drop off car parking site without us having to walk in to the reception.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: no good i get today 30/1 not my deposit back.

Cons: i droped saturday the far back. all was ok. but my deposit 1000.- eurot still hasn't been refunded, I think it's very bad

Pros: The agents were nice and helpful, including the shuttle driver.

Cons: They gave us a car with defective door locks (confirmed by the local Drivalia store in Málaga, Spain and documented on our receipt). This directly contributed us getting robbed. The thieves were able to steal two suitcases with more than EUR 6500 of personal property in them without breaking a window or otherwise breaking into the car. There was no way to pursue a claim while we were in Málaga and the company has not responded to our email where we requested to be reimbursed for our losses.

Cons: They didn’t do their homework on electric cars charging network. They’re ready to leave customers hanging dry

Pros: Very good new car for reasonable price.

Cons: Long waiting for shuttle. Off hours delivery charged 20 EUR extra.

Pros: Agent offered me insurance for £158 for Seven days or deposit of £1200 on a credit card only. Also when I returned the car, fuel tank was half empty, so I asked the agent how much would it cost? She did offer me to go back and get it filled or it would be around 1.47 per litre as compared to1.45 from the station. As it was just a couple of pennies over, I said I can pay it to them but was shocked to see that she charged me £75 for a half tank of a small Ford focus car. Extortionate!

Pros: Helpful

Cons: Woukd have liked to know where nearest fuel stations were

Pros: Fast efficient pickup friendly staff

Cons: Nothing all good

Cons: Had to wait for 25mins whilst they cleaned the car, on collection. Not ideal. Make sure you check the car over and make them aware of marks not on the agreement. We had a few. We photographed too, which was a blessing because they tried to tell us we had damaged it, dispite it being on the mark up agreement. They quickly agreed we hadn’t damaged upon us showing them pictures. But abit of a hassle.

Cons: They tried to charge me for a second driver that was already included in my contract

Pros: It was a quick turn around and I was helped turning the entertainment system from spanish to english.

Cons: The extra insurance sell. As always when I hire a car in spain.

Pros: Apart from waiting too much for the shuttle, things were all fine.

Cons: Too much wait for the shuttle, and no signs.

Pros: Great value and fantastic service

Pros: Disastrous service, lady who checked the car was mean and rude, totally unprofessional, very disappointed, I won't use this company again and would not recommend anyone else to use it.

Cons: Attitude of the employee, we are family with baby and she didn't care, she was just smiling and being rude.

Cons: - Additional cost in case you don't have credit card, - waiting more than 30 minutes for shutlle bus, - unpleseant and not hehlpfulpersonnel durining picking up the car

Cons: We´ve rented 2 cars with Drivalia in Malaga. Both were crashed and they charged us extras for delivering the car too early. Also too strict regarding fuel - charging us almost 50 euros for 5 liters.

Pros: Fast check-in and check-out. They keep the cars in really secluded area and even using GPS it was not easy to find the place to return the car, but managed it asking locals around there.

Cons: The only thing which was very minor was that on the last day the tire pressure light came on.

Cons: Atsirado papildomas draudimas vietoj užstato, nors buvome sumokėję Full Coverage.

Pros: Great service, good value for money

Cons: Probably I didn’t read properly but I didn’t realise pick up was so far from the airport

Pros: Nothing

Cons: They have claim a damage that I didn't do

Pros: All cars are almost brand new, well maintained, low mileage, well equipped, very welcoming.

Cons: Booked and paid for premium convertible , but instead I was offered a standard car. After making demands, finally been offered exactly was I paid for.

Pros: All the people I dealt with were very helpful and professional.

Cons: They didn't inform me clearly that I have to pick the car some were eles than airport, I couldn't find the bus from airport and I had to take a taxi, I already bought the full insurance but they blocked 2000 Euro from my account

Pros: Helpful and efficient

Cons: N/a

Pros: Very flexible and friendly

Pros: very professional

Cons: drop off was difficult

Pros: Efficient in getting us from the qirport to depot qnd return; fairly quick in getting the pqperwork sorted to collect the vehicle.

Cons: When ze dropped the car back there wasn't enough staff there to deal with the number of people collecting or returning cars so it took a long time to be seen and dealt with.

Pros: Very very little. Basically Drivalia was awful. It was a s**t experience from start to finish.

Cons: BHait and switch which means if you don't have a VIsa/Mastercard credit card or someone that is not the named driver can provide this they charge +250 Euros. That is basically a scam to headline a low day rate but then sting you when you turn up. It took +45 minutes to get to the rental location. Poor transfer from the Airport. Utter waste of time in the blistering heat. I asked to extend the rental 24h before ending. They refused and threated to charge me 300 Euros if I was late.

Pros: Nothing!!

Cons: The entire service was terrible!!

Pros: excellent car, staff were very good and friendly. did not push extra insurance.

Cons: wait for minibus was longer at the airport than expected. and long wait at reception. not enough staff. but again cat really complain with the price paid.

Cons: Your car rental company "Drivalia" is cheating and incorrectly charging your credit card. The fuel tank was full, but they wrote that it was a little low on fuel. After that, he does not respond to emails.

Pros: Staff approach and car quality.

Cons: Out of hour Drop off facility as car park was cramped.

Pros: Car was clean

Cons: Paid for out of hours drop off… absolute nightmare. Was told to drop back to a location that was closer to the airport. Did that… creepiest place ever. FULL of cars. Loads of people waiting for one 8 seater bus. Waited for 30 mins and ended up having to walk/ run to the airport across very busy main roads.. very dangerous! Otherwise we would have missed our plane. Would not recommend or use drivalia again for this reason or
