Whether you’re in Mallorca for the serenity of its pristine beaches and coves or for the excitement of the island’s many festivities, cultural landmarks and art events – you can discover it all in an Avis car rental.

Our range of small cars (like the compact Fiat 500) are perfect for zipping through the cobblestone streets of Palma and squeezing into tight carparks. If you’re searching for a car with extra space, our mid-size vehicles will be more your style. Give the Vauxhall Crossland or Seat Arona a spin and discover the benefits of a hatchback for your Mallorca adventure.

If your Mallorca adventure includes the whole family, you might consider a vehicle from our extensive range of large cars, estates and people movers. The Peugeot 3008, VW Passat and Skoda Octavia Auto are perfect for holidays with the kids in tow. And if your parents or extended family are partaking in adventures under the Mallorca sun, try our 7-seater Citroen Grand Picasso or Peugeot 5008 Auto on for size.

Your journey starts here

The gateway to Spain’s sunshine island won’t wait, so why should you? Drive the sunny terrain in style and with complete comfort. Whether you fancy a sprightly compact, homely hatch, executive saloon or spacious people carrier, unlock the perfect car.To get from our car hire Palma Airport location to Palma’s city centre, head west of Palma Airport via the Ma-19 and Av. de Gabriel Roca. It’s a short, scenic journey into Mallorca’s thriving metropole – the entire journey will only take about 20 minutes.

Exploring Palma

Mallorca’s dynamic capital is well worth exploring, with spectacular cathedrals, castles, fortresses and palaces thrusting up from its elegant harbourside sprawl. Springing to life in 123 BC as a Roman stronghold, and later captured by Byzantine, Arab and Christian conquests, the city houses a captivating range of architectural influences.

You can’t miss the honey-hued Gothic Catedral de Santa María overshadowing the grassy stretch of Parc de la Mar. Take an al-fresco pew at one of the park’s cafés and admire the soaring spires—its 44 m nave is Europe’s second tallest. The surrounding manicured gardens are adorned by a colour-popping fresco, courtesy of celebrated Spanish surrealist painter Joan Miró.

Parc de la Mar isn’t the only decent perch in Palma, though. Find one among the busy cafés that line its gracious tree-lined boulevards and the broad expanse of its grand Plaza Mayor. For a more contemporary setting, take in the shiny white yachts and palm tree-pierced skyline at Palma’s busy marina.

When all the sea air makes you peckish, Palma offers some excellent seafood, best washed down with a gin-based tipple. The punchy spirit is distilled on the island and has been enjoyed by locals for centuries.

Sun worshippers often head straight for the golden shores stretching out from Palma’s coastline, but with a hire car, so much more begs to be discovered. The lofty peaks of the Serra de Tramuntana mountain range are only half an hour away from the capital—the mountainous maze, revered among hikers, is a UNESCO World Heritage Cultural Landscape.

Alternatively, once you’ve indulged in the capital’s chief thrills, head for further-flung Deià or S’illot to soak up their tranquil waters and surrounding peaceful coves. Deià is revered for its pine-carpeted clifftops that plunge into the Balearic Sea, as well as its secluded ambience. S’illot is a laid-back town on the east coast of Mallorca where the serious work of sunbathing, swimming and snorkelling prevail.

A 12-minute drive from S’illot, enter the subterranean realm of stalactites, stalagmites and mysterious pools in Cuevas del Drach (Caves of the Dragon). Here, discover one of the world’s most immense underground lakes.

On the opposite flank to Palma, the charismatic, portside metropolis of Alcúdia is reached in just under an hour, owing to the island’s compact size. Hire a car with Avis at Palma Airport and enjoy easy access to all of Mallorca’s top sights.
