Because it's a resort town, the streets in the area can get quite crowded, which can be overwhelming if you're driving a larger car. The roads to nearby villages and towns are also narrow in some parts, so the smaller the better. There are various compact and small models available through the car hire companies at the airport or in Cala d'Or itself. If you have a larger group of people with you, consider a sedan that isn't very wide to accommodate everyone. If you go with an SUV, like a lot of visitors do, just be aware of driving in the centre of the resort. If you're able to, stick to walking in Cala d'Or and use the car to visit nearby places.

Various places in Cala d'Or have free street parking near hotels in the area, but it's suggested that you use pay-as-you-go parking instead, to avoid any incidents.

Make sure you stay at a hotel with free parking to avoid finding parking for your car hire overnight.
