Found a good deal on a nice 2bed apartment in Son Bou Menorca. Decent size as we have two small kids, decent flight times and duration. Only thing putting me off booking is price of hire cars. Get £40 back from operator if we dont use their transfers which helps, but me and Mrs Maul like to explore when on holiday and with a 2 and 4 yo a car is pretty much a necessity for some, if not all of the holiday. Best price I have seen is about £160, plus two car seats. Have tried Hertz, Auto reisen with little joy. Only thing with decent prices was some website called youdospain.com or something and all independent reviews said they were rubbish and unreliable.

Any recommendations? Preferably airport pickup and collection

Decent base prices, but they all charge extra for car seats, so a £140 booking becomes nearer £200. I guess I'm just slightly bemused why its nearly twice the price as hiring a car in the Canaries. £100 for a week via Auto Reisen with free car seats in Playa Blanca vs £140 plus 40euros for each car seat in Menorca. If its dearer in Menorca, I guess it just is!!
