Rent Easy motorhome hire Portugal: Lisbon and Porto

The rental company

Rent Easy in Portugal, from the Douro to the Algarve

Rent Easy is one of the Erwin Hymer group’s rental brands, just like McRent. In Portugal, its two depots are run by the same partner company, J. Sousa Mesquita: the first in Rio de Mouro, in the municipality of Sintra, west of Lisbon, the second in Vilar do Pinheiro, just north of Porto airport.

The rental company advertises a modern, well-equipped fleet, with a kitchen, washroom and comfortable beds, as well as assistance that can be reached at any hour. Our data does not yet list the models offered in Portugal: each offer specifies the vehicle, the number of berths and the gearbox. According to Rent Easy, you can hire for a weekend as well as for several weeks.

CoolDrive observed no Rent Easy offer in Portugal in October 2026. Mileage, excess and security deposit are therefore read in the terms of each offer; a kilometre allowance is possible.

Our view: two well-spread departure points, Porto for the Douro and the Minho, the Lisbon area for Sintra, the Alentejo and the Algarve, with vehicles from a major manufacturer. To watch: the lack of observed prices for comparison, a possible kilometre cap, security deposit terms to read closely and depots located on the outskirts.

Our view

Rent Easy: who is it for, and who should look elsewhere?

Rent Easy is ideal if…

You want to travel up the Douro Valley and its terraced vineyards from Porto
You are landing in Porto and prefer to collect the vehicle without crossing the city
Your plan strings together Sintra, the Alentejo coast and the Algarve
You insist on a vehicle from a major European manufacturer
You love the Minho and Peneda-Gerês park, less than two hours from the northern depot

Rent Easy is not ideal if…

You want to compare observed prices before choosing: we do not have any yet for Rent Easy here
You want to start directly in the Algarve, in Faro for example
You plan to cover the whole country and part of Spain without watching the odometer
You hope to collect the motorhome in central Lisbon

Practical tips

Our tips for booking with Rent Easy

Choose the depot according to your itinerary

Portugal stretches more than 500 km from north to south. Start from Porto for the Douro, the Minho or the Serra da Estrela, and from the Lisbon area for Sintra, the Alentejo coast and the Algarve. A return to the other depot is only possible if the offer allows it: enter a different arrival city in the search to find out.
Ask how to pay tolls

Several Portuguese motorways work only with electronic gantries, with no barrier or booth. When collecting the vehicle, ask the depot whether it is fitted with a transponder and how passages will be invoiced. If not, look into the payment options before taking the motorway.
Plan your overnight stops

In Portugal, overnight parking of motorhomes outside aires and campsites is regulated, particularly on the coast and in protected natural areas. Note down the campsites and service areas where you plan to sleep while preparing the trip; in summer, the Costa Vicentina and the Algarve fill up quickly.
Read the security deposit terms

The security deposit amount and how it is blocked or charged appear in the offer’s terms. Before leaving, make sure your bank card limit covers this amount; if a clause seems unclear, write to our experts.
Carry out a careful handover inspection

Before leaving the depot, walk around the vehicle with the person handing it over, photograph any chips and check the inventory: crockery, levelling blocks, electric cable, water hose. Save the rental company’s assistance number in your phone.
Plan how to get to Rio de Mouro

The Lisbon depot is on an industrial estate in the municipality of Sintra. The Sintra railway line serves Rio de Mouro from Lisbon, but a taxi may still be useful for the last stretch with luggage. Look up the address on the map before setting your arrival time.

What travellers ask

Your questions about Rent Easy

Where are the Rent Easy depots in Portugal?

Rent Easy offers two departure points. For Lisbon, the depot is in Rio de Mouro, on the Cabra Figa industrial estate, in the municipality of Sintra. For Porto, it is in Vilar do Pinheiro, close to the airport. No depot appears in our data for the Algarve: from the south, you need to head back up to Lisbon.

Is mileage unlimited with Rent Easy in Portugal?

We cannot say yet: no Rent Easy offer was observed in Portugal in October 2026. The rental company states that some hires may include a kilometre allowance. Read the kilometres included and the excess-mileage rate in the offer. As a benchmark, McRent, Anywhere Campers and Campilider show unlimited mileage in all their offers observed in Portugal.

Can you go to Spain with a Rent Easy motorhome hired in Portugal?

Andalusia, Extremadura and Galicia are tempting from Lisbon or Porto. We have no general rule to give you: the permitted countries, and any surcharge for leaving the country, are set by the rental company in the offer’s terms. Read them before any plan to cross a border, and keep the mileage in mind if an allowance applies.

When to go to Portugal in a Rent Easy motorhome?

Spring and early autumn are ideal: mild temperatures, quieter beaches, the grape harvest in the Douro Valley in September. Summer is hot inland, especially in the Alentejo, and very busy on the Algarve coast. In winter, the south stays mild and draws many motorhome travellers from all over Europe.

How much does a Rent Easy hire cost in Portugal?

CoolDrive observed no Rent Easy price in Portugal in October 2026, so we will not give a figure. The price depends on the depot, the model, the period and the number of days. Run a search with your dates from Lisbon or Porto: each result shows a price including mandatory fees, to compare with the country’s other rental companies.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ — Rent Easy motorhome hire in Portugal

Why book Rent Easy with CoolDrive?

On CoolDrive, a single search puts Rent Easy up against the other rental companies present in Lisbon and Porto, with a price that already includes mandatory fees. You read the terms of each offer before paying, add your options online, and a team helps you decide between depot, model and itinerary.

What excess and security deposit with Rent Easy in Portugal?

We have not yet observed these amounts for Portugal. Each offer details the amount you pay in the event of damage, the amount held as a guarantee and the card accepted to block it. The rental company applies security deposit rules that are best known before departure: check your card limit and ask our team about a possible partial excess waiver option.

Is one-way hire between Porto and Lisbon possible?

A north-to-south trip without retracing your steps is appealing in Portugal. Rent Easy may accept it, but not systematically: enter Porto as departure and Lisbon as arrival, or the reverse, in the CoolDrive engine. Only offers that allow this return are displayed, with any one-way fees already included in the price.

Do you need a special licence for a Rent Easy motorhome?

A motorhome of 3.5 tonnes or less can be driven with a category B licence, which most travellers already hold; heavier models require C1. Look at the weight shown on the vehicle page. Rent Easy also sets a minimum age and a minimum period of licence holding: both criteria are restated in each Portuguese offer.

How do you pay tolls in Portugal with a hired motorhome?

The Portuguese network mixes motorways with barriers and electronic-only toll sections, with no booth. Some hire vehicles are fitted with a transponder, others are not. Ask the Rent Easy depot how passages are paid and invoiced, then keep the receipts. National roads remain a free alternative, slower but often more scenic.

Where can you sleep in a motorhome in Portugal?

The country has many campsites and service areas, on the coast as well as inland. Overnight parking outside these places is regulated, and checks are frequent on the coast in summer. Plan your stops with an aires app, book Algarve campsites in high season and respect local signage.
