What our Customers say




Rent a car in São Miguel


São Miguel is the biggest and most populated island of the archipelago. It is referred by locals as "The Green Island" because of its worlwide famous lagoons, beautiful lakes, sandy beaches, hot springs, high mountains, green plains and blue ocean. It is definitely the best place to kick-off your trip in the Azores.



> Car rental without a credit card

Looking to rent a car in São Miguel with just a debit card? No problem! Not all, but some of our partners allow for this. In this case the car rental supplier will charge the security deposit directly from the debit card, in some cases will require it in cash, while in other cases doesn't require a deposit at all. You can find this information when browsing the rental options available.


> Free Cancellation up to 24h before

We understand that plans can change, which is why we offer the convenience of free cancellation up to 24 hours before picking-up your car. So, whether it's a sudden change of plans or unexpected weather conditions (so typical in the Azores), you're covered without any extra costs, ensuring your trip remains stress-free.


> Different Pick-up and Drop-off locations

In the island of São Miguel most of the car rental desks will be in or around Ponta Delgada. If you are staying in a different part of the island we recommend to arrange transportation to Ponta Delgada to access a larger pool of options. Car rental suppliers might charge a high fee to deliver the car outside of town and airport areas.

Useful tips when selecting a car



> Full insurance options available

You can hire additional insurance to provide you with extra peace of mind. You can find about the included and the additional insurance options under the "Insurance" section when browsing our options.


> Early car drop-off to catch an early flight

The airport of Ponta Delgada (PDL) is small, with a small number of gates and all next to the security check. However if you are returning your car we advise to do it 1h30 before departure for international flights and 1h for inter-island flight. Even if your flight is early in the morning - flights start departing from São Miguel as early as 06h00 - you can book your car with us with an early drop-off. Some of our partners will charge an out of hours fee for this, but if applicable this information will be mentioned during the booking process.
