Cario Car Rental at Lindos Mare
Lindos Mare car rental with Cario Car Rental means your car is waiting at the hotel entrance, not at a desk in town. Delivery and collection at the hotel are free of charge, and the price you confirm online already includes full insurance with zero excess and no security deposit.
Lindos Mare is a five-star hotel with 159 rooms, stepped down the hillside above Vlycha Bay, with lifts and a cable car linking the rooms to its beach. Lindos village is about 6 km away by road and our office only a few minutes up the coast, so help is always close at hand.
How delivery works at Lindos Mare
When you book, enter Lindos Mare as the delivery address, with the lead driver’s name and a mobile number that works in Greece. The rooms are spread over terraces running down to the sea, so the handover takes place up at road level by the main entrance – we confirm the exact spot and time with your booking.
Arriving on a transfer? Pick a delivery time that leaves room for check-in, or start the rental the next morning. Walk round the car with our representative, note the fuel level and save the Cario assistance number. If the hotel is also your return location, we collect the car there at the agreed time.

Driving and parking at Lindos Mare
The hotel sits right on the main Rhodes–Lindos road, so getting on the road is quick – but traffic here moves fast. Indicate early, slow down well before the hotel entrance and take extra care when turning back onto the main road.
Ask reception where hotel guests should leave their cars and never leave valuables visible inside. Lindos village is car-free, so plan to park above it and walk in.
