"Rented a SEAT Ibiza at Alicante airport with no deposit required. The whole process was seamless - booked online in 5 minutes, showed my ID and debit card at pickup, and drove straight to Santa Barbara Castle. Incredible value for money!"
"No credit card needed - that was the main reason I chose Alicante Car. Paid with my debit card for the small booking fee, then cash at pickup. Got a Renault Clio and spent the whole week beach-hopping along the Costa Blanca. Would absolutely use again!"
"The full insurance coverage gave us total peace of mind. Drove from ALC airport to Benidorm, Calpe, and the Guadalest valley with zero stress. Excellent service from booking to return. Highly recommended!"
"Booked a Toyota RAV4 for our family holiday in Alicante. No deposit at all - just showed my passport and debit card. The SUV handled the mountain roads to Guadalest perfectly. Great experience, would recommend to any family."
"Rented a convertible to drive the Costa Blanca coastal road - best decision of our trip! No credit card required at all, no deposit blocked on my card. Booking was quick and the car was in perfect condition at ALC airport."
"Needed a 9-seater VW Caravelle for our group trip along the Costa Blanca. The van was ready and waiting at Alicante airport, paid the balance in cash. No hidden fees, transparent pricing and a very friendly team. Highly recommend Alicante Car!"
Everything you need to know before getting behind the wheel in Alicante
Spain drives on the right-hand side of the road. Alicante has well-maintained roads connecting the city, airport, coastal resorts, and inland attractions. Speed limits are clearly signed throughout the region. Always carry your driving licence and rental documents when behind the wheel.
In Alicante city centre, street parking uses the blue zone (ORA) system costing around €1.00-1.50 per hour, operating Monday to Friday 9:00-21:00 and Saturday 9:00-14:00. Underground car parks are available near Plaza de Los Luceros and the port, typically charging €2-3 per hour.
Outside the city, free parking is widely available near beaches and smaller resorts. During the peak summer months, popular beaches such as Playa del Postiguet and San Juan fill up quickly - arrive early. Most hotels along the Costa Blanca offer private parking facilities.
Alicante and the surrounding area has numerous Repsol, BP, Cepsa, and Galp service stations. Stations are conveniently located along the N-332 coastal road, the AP-7 motorway, and throughout the city. Most are open from 7:00 to 22:00, with several offering 24-hour automated service.
Fuel prices vary by season and station type — self-service automated pumps typically offer cheaper rates than full-service lanes. All stations accept credit and debit cards as well as cash. We recommend filling up before returning your rental car to avoid agency refuelling charges.
The AP-7 Mediterranean Motorway near Alicante has toll sections. The stretch from ALC airport towards Benidorm costs approximately €4-6, and towards Murcia approximately €3-5. Payment is accepted by card or cash at manned toll booths and automated lanes.
Free alternatives exist via the N-332 coastal road and other national routes, although these are slower and busier in peak season. If you are planning multiple trips along the coast, the toll road saves considerable time and is well worth the cost.
