Top tips for renting a car at Santander Airport

  • Car rental at Santander Airport (SDR) is convenient for airline travelers and guests to this airport. The airport has only one terminal which means you can be at the car rental kiosk just minutes after landing. Its car rental companies are in the arrival hall and within close proximity of baggage claim. Once you've signed your contract and gotten your keys, you can follow the signs over to the rental car parking lot which is right in front of the terminal.
  • In your Santander Airport car hire, you can be in Downtown Santander in just 10 minutes. If you take public transportation, you'll have to wait on the bus which leaves the airport every 30 minutes. Riding the bus can be very inconvenient when you have lots of luggage. Rent a car and you can load your luggage and start sightseeing almost immediately.
  • The Santander Airport is the best place to rent a car in the Cantabria Region because it has the widest selection of cars and car types.

When renting a car, you'll have your choice of using a European-based rental car company like Europcar, SIXT, Goldcar Rental, and OK Mobility, or an American car rental agency like Hertz, Avis and Enterprise, just to name a few. Book in advance with KAYAK to get the perfect car to match your itinerary and budget. It is especially important to plan ahead when you're traveling to Santander in August which is the busiest tourism month or around the Christmas holiday when many people travel home to spend time with family.

From the airport entrance, you can follow the signs to the car rental lot. Remember to record your mileage and get all of your belongings before locking the car.

I was forced to take additional insurance for the car, with rather unclear justification. Very long process and queue to take and give back the car. Was accused of not having filled the tank, which I had done. Uneasy to find the office, which is located outside the airport premices.
