Start the rental when you actually need the car
Hotel or villa delivery lets you request the vehicle at the accommodation instead of automatically paying for rental days from the airport. Give the exact property and desired handover time so the quote can confirm the arrangement.
Who this option is useful for
Hotel or villa delivery works best when the exact property, handover time, vehicle size and return point are agreed in advance.
Exact property required
Hotel/villa name and area prevent confusion between similarly named accommodations.
Useful for city stays
If the first days are spent walking in central Chania, later delivery may reduce unused car days.
Return can differ
You can request pickup at a hotel and return at CHQ, Rethymno or a supported Heraklion point.
Same insurance choices
CDW is included; optional FDW +€12/day is independent of delivery location.
Why accommodation delivery can improve the itinerary
Not every holiday needs a car from the first minute. Central Chania is walkable, and parking can be less convenient than simply exploring on foot. If the road-trip portion begins later, delivering the car to the hotel can align the rental period with the days it is actually used.
For resort stays outside the centre, hotel delivery can also avoid a separate trip to a rental office.
Information needed for a smooth handover
Give the exact accommodation name, area, pickup date and desired time. If access is unusual, add a short note. For villas or properties with multiple entrances, a clear meeting point can help.
The quote should confirm whether the requested accommodation is supported and whether any location charge applies.
Hotel pickup with airport or one-way return
The pickup and return points do not have to be identical when a supported one-way arrangement is available. You can request a hotel pickup followed by CHQ, Rethymno, Heraklion Airport or Heraklion Port return.
The route is checked as part of the quote so any applicable charge is known before confirmation.
Choosing the car for a hotel-based holiday
For central or west-Chania stays with frequent parking, a small or compact car can be easier to use. Families or groups should choose based on luggage and child-seat needs, not only on seat count.
If automatic transmission is essential, select the automatic car type explicitly in the form.
What changes the final quote
The published starting rates help compare vehicle types, but the confirmed total depends on the exact dates, rental duration, vehicle type and transmission, availability, insurance choice, pickup/return locations and any special delivery or one-way logistics.
Basic insurance (CDW) is included. Optional full insurance (FDW) is +€12 per rental day and reduces the excess to zero for covered damage, subject to exclusions. No credit card is required and no rental security deposit is blocked. Any applicable delivery or one-way fee is confirmed with the quote.
For the most accurate quote, send:
- Pickup and return dates plus the real handover times.
- Exact pickup and return locations, including airport, port or accommodation name where relevant.
- The car type and transmission you need.
- Driver age and any second-driver requirement.
- CDW or optional FDW preference.
- Passenger count, large luggage count and any child-seat need.
- Flight or ferry information when it affects the handover.
