What You Need to Know
-
That's easy! Hiring holiday equipment through Hire4Holidays makes travelling to the Costa del Sol significantly easier. Instead of paying airline baggage fees or buying cheap disposables or overpaying to hire sports equipment for an hour at a time, with Hire4Holidays you get top-quality, branded equipment; cleaned, safety-checked and delivered directly to your villa, apartment, or resort.
We are the only holiday hire service on the Costa del Sol offering such a wide range of products, from baby gear and beach equipment to bikes, water sports equipment and mobility devices. All available for delivery and collection across the region.
With Hire4Holidays you can hire the equipment you need when you need it. Think hire for baby, hire for beach, hire for sports, hire for working from home, hire for electronics, hire for mobility and everything in between.
-
Yes. The minimum order value is €50, and the minimum rental period is 3 days. These apply to all equipment categories, whether you're hiring beach gear, baby essentials, bikes or watersports equipment. Delivery and collection is charged separately at €25, which covers both.
-

We deliver across the Costa del Sol including Sotogrande, Torreguadiaro, Chullera, la Duquesa, Sabinillas, Casares, Estepona, Manilva, Cancelada, Isdabe, San Pedro and all areas in between. Hire4Holidays is a delivery-only service; equipment cannot be collected directly from our warehouse. Your items will be delivered to your door, whether that's a villa, apartment or hotel, on your chosen rental start date. -
Payment is collected in full at checkout. Hire4Holidays uses Stripe, one of the world's leading secure payment providers, so your card details are fully protected. We accept all major credit and debit cards. A full refund is available for cancellations made more than 48 hours before your delivery date.
-
We understand that holiday plans can change. You can cancel your order free of charge up to 48 hours before your scheduled delivery date and receive a full refund. Cancellations made within 48 hours of the delivery date are non-refundable. To cancel, simply contact us through the website or email [email protected]. We recommend booking with confidence; if your travel plans shift, as long as you give us 48 hours' notice, you won't be out of pocket.
-
Orders are placed by rental period, not by individual item. You can include multiple items in one order as long as they share the same rental dates. If you need certain items for different date ranges, for example, a buggy for the full two weeks but bikes for only one week, you will need to place separate orders. Please note that each order comes with a €25 delivery and collection charge. So to avoid unnecessary costs, we recommend booking all items you need for the same dates in a single order where possible.
-
Yes. Every item is thoroughly cleaned, sanitised, and safety-checked between rentals before it is delivered to you. This applies to all equipment categories, from baby gear and electronics, to bikes, watersports equipment, and mobility aids. We take hygiene seriously, especially for items used by babies and young children. All we ask in return is that you take reasonable care of the equipment during your hire period and return it in the same condition you received it.
-
Each customer is responsible for the equipment during the hire period. Hire4Holidays will charge your credit card for the retail replacement cost of any item that is not returned or returned damaged beyond reasonable wear and tear. It is your responsibility to take good care of rental equipment and return all accessories that come with certain equipment such as bicycle locks, helmets, life vests etc. We recommend checking whether your travel insurance policy covers hired equipment during your holiday, as many comprehensive policies include this protection.
-
Yes. Life vests are included with all SUP (stand-up paddleboard) hire, kayak kits, and surfboard hire. Safety helmets are provided with all bike hire, including children's balance bikes. Bodyboards and children's boogie boards do not include a life vest and should only be used under direct adult supervision in shallow water.

Use our availability search to check items by date, and if something shows as unavailable, contact us and we'll do our best to source it for you. -
