Alicante is a lovely city . Beaches are very clean and have facilities for children . Good value restaurants. The roads are amazing , you will have no problems driving. Beautiful towns like Javea , Santa Polo, Torrevieja, and Elche. I would also recommend getting a map before you travel, as tourist information were closed on the weekends and the car hire don’t supply them.

No Hassles.
No frills car and no hassles. Car had a few scrapes etc at pick up but no fuss made to record. No fuss made at drop off either . Was not full to full as contract so they gained a little fuel. Collection at airport was very efficient.

Great service
Great service, reasonable prices, good that I decided to go for a full cover. Rented a car on my trip everything was good till the last day on holiday. Someone scratched our car. I called the DiscoverCars.com helpline; I was pleasantly surprised with the quick answer, and agent Gunta was very reassuring not to worry about a thing. On my return home, I filled in a full coverage claim, which was successful. Max promptly, in about 2 days, reviewed the case and initiated the money which I had to pay to the rental company for damage, to be paid back into my account.

The best value for money AND experience
I am a regular car hire client of DiscoverCars.com, not only because they consistently have the best prices, but because their customer service is absolutely exceptional. I have rarely had a bad experience, but in the rare occasion that something has gone wrong (because of the car suplier) they have done their best to resolve the issues. They have even gone the extra mile post rental to ensure my experience has been positive. I recommend them hundred percent. Don't waste time elsewhere, DiscoverCars are truly the best!
