Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the efficient and friendly service, highlighting the helpfulness of the staff. Many appreciate the quick and easy pick-up and drop-off processes, often noting the absence of pressure to purchase additional insurance. The quality of the vehicles is frequently mentioned, with many reviewers receiving clean, new, or upgraded cars. The convenient shuttle bus service to and from the airport is also a significant positive point for many. However, some customers have experienced minor inconveniences with the shuttle service, such as being dropped off at the pick-up point instead of departures, or finding the first shuttle bus full. A few people also noted issues with car features like windshield wipers, or a single instance where luggage was left in the car upon return.

The pickup was fast and smooth. The car was parked for us and we could leave right away. And the return was even faster. As long as you return the car with a full tank. The employees were really nice and helpfull

Very quick and efficient car pickup and return

Both car pickup and car return were very quick and efficient (also due to the administration in advance when hiring the car via SunnyCars). Also the bus transport between the Terminal and CarGest was quick. After having returned the car we got a confirmation that everything was ok within minutes.
All-in all very recommendable; both SunnyCars and CarGest!

Great place to rent a car!

At first we had to find our way to the shuttlebus that takes you to cargest, which is not far, but once found the service cargest provided was superb! Very nice and polite people and a free car upgrade! Next time I’m renting from them again!

Excellent experience

Excellent experience – no hidden fees at all. I opted for the premium option, and the cost remained very reasonable, with no massive deposits of over €1,500 required, unlike other companies. Everything was safe and stress-free, and for the first time in 20 years of renting cars, I didn’t have to worry about a single thing. For me, this company really works, and I can thoroughly recommend it.

The car (Fiat 500) was perfect!

The car (Fiat 500) was delivered in good condition and clean, with half a tank of fuel. We rented it for a week because we were staying in a remote area. It was good enough for traveling between villages, going to the beach, and doing groceries. We had one large suitcase that just fit in the back. A second suitcase could go on the back seat. A TomTom and air conditioning were also included. Perfect for two people.
What we really appreciated was the shuttle bus that picked us up from the airport and took us to the car rental office — and did the same when we returned the car. Friendly staff members too.

We're so happy to know that our Fiat 500 was perfect for your trip. It's an ideal car for getting around the towns, enjoying the coast, and parking without any hassle.

We're delighted that the transfer service and the attention of our team also left such a good impression on you. We want everything to be easy and pleasant from the moment you land in Malaga until you return the car.

Very good car hire experience with Cargest

Hired a car from Cargest for 15 days in Malaga. The handover of the vehicle was simple and I even received an upgrade on takeover.
The return of the vehicle was just as uncomplicated.
A very good experience.
Will book Cargest in the future.

One criticism stops gaining five stars

Cars are clean and new. Car return is easy and quick very professional. Only criticism is on two of last four rentals the shuttle drivers for their convenience and your inconvenience drop off at pickup point rather than outside departures. It leaves long walk for elderly and on this occasion an older group of mixed golfers had heavy bags.

Next time, don't hesitate to call our team and we will help you in any way we can.
