High Season Car Rental in Rhodes

Rhodes has thousands of small hatchbacks and only a handful of convertibles. In the first three weeks of August the specialist cars — the cabrios, the newest premium models, the electric SUVs — are typically committed long before the month begins.

That is why the honest advice for high season is not about finding a discount code. It is about booking in winter or early spring, when the car you actually want is still on the list.

Midday temperatures inland regularly sit in the high thirties. With a convertible that means roof down before ten in the morning and again after six in the evening, and roof up with the air conditioning on in between — a rhythm that suits sightseeing anyway.

Parking is the other high-season reality. Rhodes Old Town, Lindos and Faliraki fill by late morning; a compact car and an early start are worth more than any amount of patience.

Late May, June, September and the first half of October give you warm sea, open-top weather, quieter roads and materially better rates on exactly the same cars. If your dates are flexible at all, this is where a convertible holiday in Rhodes is at its best.

Prices for your dates and driver age are calculated on the Rhodes Booking Marketplace. We do not print figures here, because a price that is out of date by the time you read it is worse than no price at all.
