Dealt with them via email from Australia and Marco went above and beyond to make the whole process so easy. Do yourself a favour and get your hire car from them when you are in Funchal. Great competitive prices and above and exceptional customer service. 10/10

An amazing place to rent a car. The staff, especially the wonderful and charismatic Marco, were so friendly and helpful. Marco went above and beyond to ensure we were safe and comfortable driving, making the whole experience easy and stress free. The car was very clean and reliable and at a great price. We will definitely use this place again! Thanks so much for all your help Marco!

Amazing welcome by smiley, friendly and charismatic Marco. Great service and smooth car delivery. He helped us with good advice too regarding everything we had to ask about Madeira, such an amazing place. We recommend FX Car Rental 100% for your visit in Madeira. Hope we meet again Marco! Greetings from your Mauritian fellows! PS: Marco also helped us get in touch with a car rental in Azores (our next destination)

We had a great time on Madeira thanks to our amazing Twingo rented with FX. The whole process of getting and returning the car was very pleasant, relaxed and comfortable. A great experience overall! Thank you and until next time.

Good experience, great prices and good service. We booked the car through Booking at a very competitive price for a small car (Twingo) and all went smoothly. The car was small, practical and not very powerful but we already knew that: even tho some say you need a big and powerful car to go around the island, I don't think you necessarily do, if you can drive a manual and don't have much hurry, the car works just fine. We went everywhere, even to the highest peaks, without problems, and spent 8 days only using a full tank of gas, more or less. The car had some scratches that the owner acknowledged and were correctly noted in the contract.

I rented the car here from Rentalcars by booking application. Then I arrived. It was very late. Manager patiently waited for me. But I got scared, may be it s my bad. Gold watches bald with tattoos. I felt uncomfortable there. Unfortunately I couldn't reach out rentalcars to get at least some money back. At least a saved my deposit anyway.

Small company which may not seem like an obvious first choice when looking for a rental, but the service provided was perfect. We got lovely modern hybrid car in a perfect shape for a total bargain, staff was nice and friendly, and everything was perfectly fair and in order. We were told everything we needed to know, there were no tricks or catches and the deposit was returned to us right after we brought the car back, no problems whatsoever. Also located conveniently in the Funchal centre. I'm glad I supported a small local business instead of overpaying hundreds of euros to a multi-national rental company just because they may have a bit nicer office. I recommend everyone else to do the same!

We had very good experiences - it was quick and uncomplicated on site, as was the return process. The employee was very friendly and professional. We had a relatively new Fiat Panda and it worked well for getting around the island! We booked through Rentalcars.com - there is a fee for washing/cleaning in advance ( 20) - but its definitely fair!

Wir haben sehr gute Erfahrungen gemacht - es ging vor Ort schnell und unkompliziert, ebenso auch bei der Ruckgabe. Der Mitarbeiter war sehr freundlich und professionell. Hatten einen relativ neuen Fiat Panda und das hat gut gepasst furs Herumkommen auf der Insel! Gebucht hatten wir uber Rentalcars.com - Vorort ist dann vorab noch eine Gebuhr furs Waschen/reinigen fallig (20 ) - ist aber durchaus fair!

Collection and return in the city center in double line. Read the fine print carefully because you will be asked for a cleaning fee in cash (15 ). No adaptation of the schedule for restitution. Correct car.

4 stars because we had paid for a higher class car but they gave us a lower one, not really suitable for the ups and downs of the Madeira roads (sometimes it was difficult to get on!). To break even, they took away the cost of the car wash, added a second driver and gave us free parking for a week. Correct in freezing the deposit. Better than other operators in the sector!
Translation
4 stelle perche avevamo pagato per unauto di classe superiore ma ce ne han data una inferiore, non proprio appropriata per i sali-scendi delle strade di Madeira (a volte saliva a fatica!). Per pareggiare i conti ci hanno tolto i costi del lavaggio, aggiunto il secondo guidatore e dato il parcheggio gratuito per una settimana. Corretti nel congelare il deposito. Meglio di altri operatori del settore!

I will say this... a lot of negative opinions about the rental company and the owner, an allegedly aggressive guy, nothing like that, yes I also fell into the trap with insurance from the rental website, but after calculating the costs and paying additional insurance, the price of renting a car was still attractive, and I checked other options and it was more expensive, and with the quite demanding roads in Madeira, I had peace of mind, finally, a very nice and cordial owner, everything was taken care of from I dont use a loan and I didnt need it when returning it. There were no problems, only the odometer reading and fuel level were checked to see if it was refueled. The rented panda coped with Madeira without any problems! I recommend talking to the owner - you can talk normally and get along!

We rented a Fiat Panda for 5 days. The car performed well. When we picked up the car, the PIN machine did not work properly or our own credit card maximum was too low, which meant that the deposit could not be blocked by cashless transfer. There was an ATM nearby, so this was resolved quickly. There were no problems with returning. We got the deposit back and it all went smoothly. We were helped by Pedro. An honest and nice man!
Translation
Wij hebben een fiat panda gehuurd voor 5 dagen. De auto deed het goed. Bij het ophalen van de auto deed het pinapparaat niet goed of was ons eigen maximum van de creditcard te laag, waardoor de borg niet giraal geblokkeerd kon worden. Er was een pinautomaat in de buurt, dus was dit zo opgelost. Bij het inleveren waren er geen problemen. De borg kregen we terug en het verliep allemaal soepel. Wij zijn geholpen door Pedro. Een eerlijke en aardige man!

DO NOT RECOMMEND. Unsafe cars, unpleasant and agressive owner + you may get cheated on (check other comments) Please be careful with this agency. They will try to find minimal scratches that were already there to charge you extra. Apart from this, the return proces was extremely unpleasant, with the owner being agressive and disrespectful (we arrived 10 minutes late). Unsafe car, it vibrated a lot when braking. For your safety and peace of mind, please find another rental agency. Edit following owners response: please read other recent reviews and check this was not a one-time issue

AWFUL! Personally I do not recommend this agency. The cars brakes were in poor condition, when braking the car began to vibrate and that did not provide any safety. And on top of that they have charged us for damages that were already there. We tried to talk to them, the man who helped us started shouting, saying that he doesnt care and that all he wants is to finish and go home and the boss/owner of the agency, also shouting telling us no and that we should will send the invoice that will be deducted from the deposit. For me, it is the perfect definition of cheap is expensive .
Translation
HORRIBLE! Personalmente no recomiendo esta agencia. Los frenos del coche estaba en mal estado, al frenar el coche empezaba a vibrar y eso no daba nada de seguridad. Y encima nos han cobrado unos danos que ya estaban. Intentamos hablar con ellos, el hombre que nos atendio empezo a gritar, que a el le da igual y que lo unico que quiere es terminar e ir a su casa y el jefe/dueno de la agencia, tambien gritando diciendonos que no y que nos mandara la factura que descontaran de la fianza. Para mi, es la definicion perfecta de lo barato sale caro ..
