Seat car rental in Costa Brava

One step above the Seat Leon's €37 a day, the Seat Arona automatic costs €40 — and both sit inside a four-car Seat line-up that starts at €26 a day for the Seat Ibiza. Rent-Trip supplies these self-drive Seat cars across the Costa Brava, delivered to any address in the Costa Brava towns we have a page for, to Girona-Costa Brava Airport (GRO) and to Barcelona-El Prat Airport (BCN).

Choosing a Seat car rental in Costa Brava for your trip

Seat Ibiza, Leon, Arona and Leon Sportstourer side by side

All four Seats share 5 seats, petrol and front-wheel drive, and each runs a 1.0 L engine.

Is a Seat Ibiza big enough for a family

The Ibiza seats five and costs from €26 a day, the cheapest car on this page, in the Economy class. With a 1.0 L, 80 hp engine it suits short coastal hops better than long motorway days, so treat the Ibiza as the town-and-beach option rather than the airport-to-Andalusia machine.

Seat Leon or Leon Sportstourer for luggage

Both Leon versions cost from €37 and €40 a day and carry five, but the Sportstourer is an estate. The hatchback and the estate share the 1.0 L, 110 hp petrol engine, the manual gearbox and the Comfort class badge — the difference is what happens behind the rear seats. Choose the estate when four people travel with checked bags; the hatchback is easier in old-town streets, where a shorter tail swings into fewer walls.

Driving the coast roads in an automatic Seat Arona

The Arona is the only automatic here, from €40 a day, with 110 hp and a 1.0 L engine, in the Crossover class.

What Seat car rental in Costa Brava costs

Seat hire here runs from €26 to €40 per day across the four models on this page. Longer bookings change the effective day rate: weekly is the daily rate multiplied by six, monthly by twenty-one. A week of the cheapest Seat starts at €156, a month at €546.

Daily, weekly and monthly rates by class

What a week of Seat Leon costs

A week of Seat Leon starts at €222, because weekly is the €37 daily rate multiplied by six.

How the length of your booking moves the price

• Up to six days: the daily rate applies as listed, so a short break in an Ibiza costs €26 for each day on the road.
• A full week: the daily rate multiplied by six, which brings the Ibiza to €156 and the Leon to €222.
• A month or more: the daily rate multiplied by twenty-one, so the Ibiza lands at €546 and the Arona at €840.

Petrol 95 E5 averaged €1.94 a litre across the province of Girona in our last check, with coastal stations at €1.956.

Delivery and booking for Seat car rental in Costa Brava

We bring the car to your address

• Delivery to your address: we deliver the car to any address in the towns we have a page for, plus Girona-Costa Brava Airport and Barcelona-El Prat Airport.
• What to have ready: the delivery address, the date and the time — all three are agreed with a manager before the booking is fixed.
• Outside our usual ground: delivery beyond this stretch of coast is arranged case by case and is not promised on the site.

Naming the exact street when you book saves a second call on arrival day.

Booking a Seat with a manager

The four Seats on this page are the Ibiza from €26 a day, the Leon from €37, the Arona from €40 and the Leon Sportstourer from €40. The Arona is the only automatic, so if you cannot drive a manual, book it early rather than late.

What is agreed when you book

• The delivery address, date and time: confirmed with a manager before the booking is fixed.
• The model and the dates: tell us which Seat and how long — weekly is the daily rate × 6, monthly is the daily rate × 21.
• The deposit, the excess and delivery fees: set out in the rental agreement.
• The fuel rule: the car is supplied with a full tank and returned with a full tank; anything else is charged as set out in the rental agreement.

Girona-Costa Brava Airport sits 12.5 km south-west of Girona, and the drive from it to Lloret de Mar runs 34.6 km in about 37 minutes — short enough that a morning flight still leaves you a full afternoon on the coast. That is the trip a delivered Seat is meant to make easy.

Do you need Seat car rental in Costa Brava to explore the coast

The Costa Brava is a region, not a city: the resorts are spread along the coast from Blanes to Cadaqués, and Girona-Costa Brava Airport sits 34.6 km from Lloret de Mar and 75.2 km from Roses. A car turns a chain of separate towns into one trip.

What the coast looks like without a car

• Girona-Costa Brava Airport (GRO): sits at Vilobí d'Onyar, 12.5 km south-west of Girona and 34.6 km from Lloret de Mar.
• Barcelona-El Prat (BCN): 89.6 km from Lloret de Mar, about 75 minutes by car outside rush hour.
• Roses: 75.2 km from GRO, roughly 63 minutes on the AP-7 and C-260.
• Cap de Creus: the road from Cadaqués to the lighthouse is closed to cars at set hours in season (daily 9:30–21:30 from July to 13 September); the car stays at the free Corral d'en Morell car park and the Moventis line 33 shuttle runs to the cape.

Where a car changes the trip

The AP-7 corridor from La Jonquera down past Girona to Vila-seca has been toll-free since 1 September 2021, and the C-32 Maresme barriers came down the same week, so moving between resorts costs fuel and nothing else. Petrol 95 E5 averaged €1.94 a litre across the province of Girona on 24 September, with 250 filling stations in the province and 58 along the coast.

When you can skip the car

If your whole stay is one resort and one transfer, a car adds little. If you want Cap de Creus, the Garrotxa or a French border run to Collioure in the same trip, reserve the car with your accommodation rather than after arrival.

Documents and the DGT sticker for Seat car rental in Costa Brava

Driving a Seat on the coast means carrying the right paperwork and knowing where the low-emission rules bite. Spain splits drivers into two groups — EU/EEA licence holders and everyone else — and the ZBE de Girona adds a sticker rule that catches visitors who arrive without one.

Licences that work in Spain

• EU/EEA licences: valid in Spain exactly as issued, for as long as they have not expired — no translation, no additional document, and no international permit is required.
• Non-EU licences: valid for driving as a visitor, and the DGT recommends getting an international driving permit before the trip and carrying it with your passport and your national licence.
• Non-Latin scripts: a licence in Cyrillic, Arabic or characters is valid only if it is in Spanish, carries an official translation, or was issued under Annex 9 of the Geneva Convention or Annex 6 of the Vienna Convention — in practice that means an IDP or a certified translation.
• International driving permit: a supplementary document only; it is shown together with your passport and national licence, never on its own, and it is valid for one year.
• Residency: six months after you obtain ordinary residence in Spain, a third-country licence loses its force and must be exchanged.

The Zona de baixes emissions (ZBE) de Girona

Girona runs a low-emission zone, the Zona de baixes emissions (ZBE) de Girona, in force since 15.09.2025. It covers the area from la Devesa park to c. d'Emili Grahit and from c. del Riu Güell to c. del Carme and Barri Vell, and operates 7–20 on Monday to Friday working days. Cars without a DGT environmental sticker that are not registered in Girona are restricted; cameras read plates, so there is no sticker to display at the roadside. Foreign plates can get a temporary authorisation if the car meets the technical and environmental requirements. Spanish rental fleets carry the DGT sticker, so a Seat from our fleet is not affected by the restriction. Allowance for unregistered cars is 24 days a year inside the restricted hours.

What to have in the car

• DGT sticker: fitted to the windscreen of the car — nothing for you to buy or apply for.
• Refuelling: the car leaves with a full tank and comes back full — full-to-full, lleno-lleno.

The one thing worth doing before you set off is checking the licence rule that applies to your passport: an EU/EEA licence travels as it is, while a Cyrillic, Arabic or character licence needs an IDP or a certified Spanish translation, and a driver who has held Spanish residence for six months can no longer use the original at all.

Parking and coastal driving with a Seat rental

Parking along the coast splits into two problems: paid blue zones in the bigger towns and free or seasonal car parks in the resorts.

Where to park in Girona and the resorts

• Girona, zona blava: Monday to Saturday on working days, 9:30–13:00 and 16:00–20:00 — Sant Narcís runs on different hours, so read the sign.
• Girona, zona verda: non-residents pay 1.20 €/h, maximum 2 h; Pedreres–Vista Alegre runs Monday to Friday 9:30–13:00 and 17:00–20:00, Saturday 9:30–13:00, while Güell–Devesa runs Monday to Saturday 8:00–20:00.
• Lloret de Mar, Can Lloranes: 160 spaces, roughly 15 €/day from 23 June to 11 September, free the rest of the time.
• Lloret de Mar, Avinguda Alegries: 200 spaces, free when you stay longer than 12 h, and the ticket includes a bus into the centre; the season runs 15 June–15 September.
• Lloret de Mar, zona blava: zone A covers Tarradellas and Francesc Macià all year with seasonal hours; zone C covers Fenals, Canyelles, Boadella, Can Lloranes from 23 June to 11 September.

Delivery takes the first parking problem away

We deliver the car to any address in the Costa Brava towns we have a page for, and to Girona-Costa Brava Airport (GRO) and Barcelona-El Prat Airport (BCN). The delivery address, date and time are agreed with a manager before the booking is fixed, so if your accommodation has no parking of its own, say so at that point — the street matters as much as the town.

Coast roads and the Cap de Creus access window

The Ibiza, Leon and Leon Sportstourer are manual, from €26, €37 and €40 a day.

Access to the Cadaqués — Far de Cap de Creus road is restricted by date: 28–31 March, 9:30–19:00; selected days in April and May, 9:30–19:00; and 6, 7 and 13 June among others.

Two more local notes. The AP-7 corridor from Barcelona through Girona to the French border has been free of charge since 01.09.2021, and the C-32 Maresme barriers came down the same week — the tolls that remain are the C-16 and the southern C-32, neither of which sits on a Costa Brava route. Every car on this page runs on petrol.

Fuel, deposit and the rental agreement

Every Seat on this page runs on petrol, and the fuel rule is the same for all four: the car comes with a full tank and goes back with a full tank. No other fuel option — a pre-paid tank or full-to-empty — is offered, so the arithmetic stays simple: fill up before you return the keys.

What petrol costs on the Costa Brava

• Gasolina 95: averaging €1.94 a litre across the province of Girona, with a median of €1.979 and a range from €1.718 to €2.122.
• Gasolina 98: averaging €2.106 a litre across the province, against €2.131 along the coast.
• Gasóleo A: averaging €1.922 a litre province-wide, €1.932 on the coast.
• Where to fill up: petrol 95 averages €1.94 a litre across the province against €1.956 on the coast — a small difference.

Deposit and what the agreement covers

The agreement also carries the mandatory third-party liability cover that Spanish law attaches to every car legally on the road, with limits of €70,000,000 per incident for personal injury and €15,000,000 for property damage, in force since 26.07.2025 under Real Decreto Legislativo 8/2004, article 4.2, as amended by Ley 5/2025. That cover is not optional and is never billed separately. The minimum rental age, the young-driver surcharge, which cards are accepted and where the car may be driven are agreed when booking, not fixed by law.

Before you sign

• Walk the car: note every scratch and dent in the contract or the inspection sheet before you drive off, and keep your copy.
• Check the fuel gauge: it should read full at hand-over, and it must read full when you bring the car back.
• Ask about the excess: the franquicia is printed in the agreement regardless of any waiver you buy, so read the figure before signing.
