Blurent in Portugal: a departure in the heart of the Algarve
In Portugal, Blurent rents its motorhomes from a single depot, in the Algarve. It is in Patacão, on the eastern edge of Faro, at number 518 A on national road 125. On our listing, this depot bears the name Campilider, a Portuguese rental company that also has its own page: Blurent relies on local companies in several countries, and this is the case here.
Starting from Faro puts the cliffs and coves of the Lagos coast within easy reach, along with Cape St Vincent at Sagres, then the Costa Vicentina, which runs north towards the Alentejo. Lisbon is about three hours away by motorway, and Spain begins on the other side of the Guadiana. The Algarve’s mild winter also makes it a low-season destination.
CoolDrive has not yet recorded any Blurent offer in Portugal: you need to open each offer to find out the model, the kilometres included, the excess and the security deposit. Blurent highlights well-maintained vehicles, with a kitchen, berths and storage, and sometimes bikes or camping equipment.
Our verdict: a practical option for a loop that starts and ends in the Algarve, a few kilometres from Faro airport. Its limits: a single depot, no departure from Lisbon or Porto in our data, no models or terms recorded yet to judge the offer, and high demand in July and August.

Blurent: who is it for, and who should look elsewhere?

- You prefer to know the exact departure address before booking
Blurent is not ideal if…

- You are leaving it to the last minute for a departure in high summer
Our tips for booking with Blurent
-
Plan ahead for electronic tolls
The A22 motorway, which crosses the Algarve from east to west, has no barriers: passages are recorded electronically. Ask the depot whether the motorhome is fitted with a tag and how the tolls will be billed to you. The toll-free national road 125 also runs along the coast, but passes through many towns and villages.
-
Choose where to sleep before nightfall
In Portugal, overnight parking of motorhomes is regulated, particularly in protected natural areas and along the Costa Vicentina coastline. Locate service areas and campsites on your route in advance: you will avoid a fine and a late-night search.
-
Book early for summer
With a single depot in Portugal, Blurent availability remains limited in July and August, when the Algarve welcomes the most travellers. If your dates are fixed, book several months in advance. In spring and autumn, the choice is in principle wider.
-
Walk round the vehicle at departure
In Patacão, take your time over the inspection: photograph the bodywork and interior, check the inventory (crockery, levelling blocks, electric cable, water hose) and ask to be shown the gas and waste emptying. Keep the assistance number close at hand throughout the trip.
-
Read the terms before paying
The rental company states that extra fees may apply, for example for kilometres beyond the allowance. Check in the offer the included mileage, the amount of the excess, that of the security deposit and the countries allowed. Our experts help you read them if anything is unclear.
Your questions about Blurent
Where can I collect a Blurent motorhome in Portugal?
The Blurent depot is in Patacão, on the eastern outskirts of Faro, at number 518 A on national road 125. It bears the name Campilider, Blurent’s local partner. Faro airport is a few kilometres away: plan a taxi or a transfer, as the depot is not in the terminal. Key handover times are shown in your confirmation.
Which motorhomes does Blurent hire out in Portugal?
We have not yet recorded any Blurent offer in Portugal, so our listing does not show any model. The rental company advertises vehicles for two, for a family or for a group of friends, with a fitted kitchen and berths. The model, number of seats and gearbox appear in each offer in the search.
Can I cross into Spain with a Blurent motorhome hired in Faro?
From Faro, Spain is about an hour’s drive away: you cross the Guadiana between Vila Real de Santo António and Ayamonte, and then Seville is not far. The countries allowed, however, depend on the rental company’s terms. Check them in the offer before planning an Algarve and Andalusia route, and mention your plans at departure.
Which route should I plan from Faro?
A one- to two-week loop can follow the coast west to Lagos and Sagres, head up the Costa Vicentina, cross the Alentejo via Évora, then come back down towards Tavira and the Ria Formosa. With more time, Lisbon, about three hours away by motorway, is easy to add, provided you come back to return the vehicle in Faro.
How much does a Blurent hire cost in Portugal?
CoolDrive does not yet have any recorded prices for Blurent in Portugal. The price depends on the season, the length of hire, the vehicle and the number of kilometres included, and the difference between winter and August in the Algarve can be significant. Enter your dates in the search: each available offer is displayed with its price, mandatory fees included.

FAQ — Blurent motorhome hire in Portugal
Why book Blurent with CoolDrive?
In a single search, you see Blurent’s Faro offers alongside those of Campilider, McRent, Autocaravan Express and Bravacar for the same dates. The amount shown already includes mandatory fees. As we do not yet have any Blurent records in Portugal, our experts help you read the mileage, the excess and the countries allowed before payment.
Is mileage unlimited with Blurent in Portugal?
We cannot say yet: no Blurent offer has been recorded in Portugal. The rental company points out that kilometres beyond the allowance may be charged: check in the offer how many kilometres are included and how much each extra kilometre costs, then compare these figures with the length of your route.
What excess and security deposit should I expect with Blurent?
The amounts of the excess and the security deposit are shown in each Blurent offer; we have not yet recorded any in Portugal. Also check how the security deposit is taken and your card limit before departure. If you want to reduce the excess, ask our experts about the options available for your booking.
Which licence do I need to drive a Blurent motorhome?
A motorhome of up to 3.5 tonnes can be driven with a category B licence. Above that, you need a C1 licence. Each offer mentions the vehicle’s maximum authorised mass, the required age and the number of years of licence held. Also remember to check that your licence is accepted in Portugal if you did not obtain it in the European Union.
Can I return the Blurent motorhome somewhere other than Faro?
With a single Blurent depot in Portugal in our data, a return in another Portuguese city seems unlikely. To find out for sure, enter Faro for departure and another city for arrival: the search engine only shows compatible offers. Otherwise, plan your trip as a loop, for example Algarve, Alentejo and Lisbon, returning to Patacão.
When is the best time for a motorhome trip from the Algarve?
Spring and autumn offer pleasant temperatures, quieter beaches and less crowded campsites. Summer is hot and very busy, especially on the coast. Winter remains mild in the Algarve, which attracts many motorhomers from all over Europe: book early for these periods and check which campsites are open all year round.
