Standard capacity of a minivan in Spain is up to 9 people (8+1 formula), traditionally providing seven or eight passenger seats. The capacity of a minibus may vary from 9 to 15 people.
Please note, that in order to rent in Spain a vehicle with capacity which exceeds 8 passengers, you would need a driving license of the corresponding category.
Minivan dimensions are quite unusual for an ordinary driver, which sometimes leads to appearance of scratches and dents during unsuccessful manoeuvring or parking. Therefore, we encourage you to order full coverage of insurance franchise during your booking, or directly at the rental office in Playa Americas.
Before leaving the parking garage in Playa Americas, inspect the minivan for exteriour defects and other signs of damage together with the office representative and mark the found defects found in your rental documents.
