Renting a Car

Renting a Car

Our absolute recommendation! If you are 2 or more traveling together, renting a car for your whole usually costs you less than paying for a private transfer or taxi service. There are seasonal price variations, but overall prices are low outside of the summer months.

When renting a car it's important that you check the terms & conditions, as most rental companies try to sneak in extra fees and charges. Check the included kilometers and what payment options are available, having the wrong card can cost you dearly. Does your credit card´s insurance policy include a rental car insurance, it might. Lastly, if you return the car at an unmanned parking/office, ALWAYS take several photos of the parked car. This way you protect yourself from damage fraud.

Private Transfer or Taxi

Private Transfer or Taxi

There are many private options when it comes to car services, getting from point A to B, which from Alicante is more or less a necessity unless you rent a car. The cost for a taxi (1 to 4 passengers) from Alicante to Gandia starts from 150 euros and Valencia to Gandia will set you back from around 100 euros.

Public Transport

Public Transport

Since Gandía more or less is a suburb of Valencia, public transport is very accessible. Valencia airport has its own metro station and therefore it’s super easy to get to the central station (metro stop Xátiva) and the commuter train to Gandia. There are also regular bus routes connecting the two cities. Please remember that you are going to Playa de Gandía and most trains and buses will take you to the city centre. From there you either grab a taxi or a local bus to the beach. Unfortunately Alicante and Gandía aren't as well connected so there you need to go by some sort of taxi or private transfer service, unless you simply rent a car.
