Coastal
Convertible

AutoMallorca's coast around Cala Millor enjoys over 300 days of sunshine a year, making a convertible ideal for cruising the winding seafront roads to nearby coves such as Cala Ratjada and Canyamel. The soft top lets you soak up the Mediterranean breeze, while the compact size makes parking at the marina and in the narrow lanes of old towns surprisingly easy. British visitors will find left-hand-drive straightforward on these well-signed coastal routes. Just remember to keep the roof up on the occasional gusty day along the clifftop stretches.

SUV

AutoCala Millor is a firm favourite with British families, and an SUV is the most versatile choice for day trips to the Drach Caves, safari parks and the Tramuntana foothills. Higher seating helps with visibility on busy resort roundabouts, and the boot swallows pushchairs, beach gear and cool boxes without fuss. Air conditioning copes comfortably with July and August highs above 30°C. The raised ride height is reassuring on the occasionally uneven rural lanes south of Artà, giving parents extra peace of mind.
Mountain
Medium

AutoFor drivers planning a day into the Serra de Tramuntana, a medium hatchback strikes the right balance between comfort, fuel economy and agility on the twisty mountain passes. It is light enough to handle the hairpins near Cap Formentor without feeling strained, yet roomy enough for two passengers and a day bag. Petrol costs stay sensible on longer drives to Palma or Alcúdia, which is helpful for travellers watching the holiday budget. Manual transmission is widely available and well suited to the gradients you meet inland.

More Choice And Longer Hours From Palma Airport (PMI)
Airport pick-up typically offers the broadest range of vehicles (including automatics and larger family cars), longer desk hours, and easier one-way planning around flight times. It can be better value when suppliers compete heavily, but allow extra time for queues, deposits and vehicle checks—especially in summer.

Popular Trips From Cala Millor:
Cuevas del Drach (Porto Cristo) Visit
One of Mallorca’s best-known attractions: impressive limestone caves with an underground lake. Book timed entry in advance in peak season and arrive early for easier parking.

A charming hill town with a strong local feel, boutique shops, and a rewarding climb or short drive to the Sant Salvador viewpoint above the rooftops.

Car Hire Planning Tips For Cala Millor
Bring the right documents: Carry your driving licence, passport/ID, and the payment card used for the booking. Check whether your licence needs an International Driving Permit (non-EU licences may vary).
Understand the deposit and excess: Many rentals pre-authorise a deposit on a credit card. Confirm the excess amount and what’s covered (windscreen, tyres, underbody are often excluded unless you add cover).
Choose a clear fuel policy: ‘Full-to-full’ is usually simplest and best value. Photograph the fuel gauge at pick-up and keep the final fuel receipt if you refuel close to drop-off.
Pick the right car for Mallorca roads: A compact car is easier for village streets and tight parking. If you plan Tramuntana mountain routes, prioritise good brakes and comfort over size.
Allow extra time for mountain and coastal drives: Roads to viewpoints and Tramuntana villages can be slow, narrow and busy. Build in buffer time, avoid rush hours, and plan parking stops.
Inspect and photograph the vehicle: Before leaving the car park, record a walkaround video and photos of wheels, bumpers, glass and interior. Make sure any marks are logged on the check-out sheet.
Plan parking ahead: Popular spots like Valldemossa, Deià and beach car parks fill quickly in summer. Arrive early, carry coins/cards for machines, and check local signage for restrictions.
