Rental Car Companies

As you plan for a car rental in Hawaii, it’s vital to investigate the various insurance options at your disposal. Offerings such as Collision Damage Waiver (CDW)Liability Insurance, and Personal Accident Insurance (PAI) provide different levels of protection. To ensure a worry-free experience, familiarize yourself with the distinctions between these coverages and select the one that best suits your requirements.

Additionally, it’s wise to check your current auto insurance policy, as you might already have coverage for car rentals. Verify the specifics of your policy to see if you’re covered. Moreover, don’t forget that many credit card companies include rental coverage as one of their benefits. So, before committing to additional insurance, explore your existing resources to avoid unnecessary expenses.

For those traveling to Hawaii from abroad, you might be curious about whether an international driver’s license is necessary. Fortunately, at Aloha Rents, we don’t require this type of license. A valid driver’s license from your home country will typically suffice for your vehicle rental. Nonetheless, after making a reservation, you may contact the rental company about any particular requirements or restrictions to ensure a smooth car rental experience.

Renting a car in Hawaii through Aloha Rents involves a few age-related policies. Drivers must be at least 21 years old to rent a car. However, if you are between 21 and 24, you may encounter additional “Young Driver” fees. The good news is that Aloha Rents has negotiated discounted Young Driver fees, which are typically only $8 per day, as opposed to the usual $27 per day charged by most rental agencies. Review the age policies and take advantage of the discounted fees when making your reservation for a smooth process and affordable vehicle.

When renting a car in Hawaii, you’ll encounter different fuel policy options offered by rental companies, such as full-to-full and pre-purchase. In a full-to-full policy, you pick up the car with a full tank and return it full, whereas, in the pre-purchase option, you pay for a full tank upfront and return the car with any level of fuel remaining. To choose the best option for your needs, consider your travel plans and the likelihood of using an entire tank of gas.

Car rental companies often offer optional extras to enhance your rental experience, such as GPS navigation, child safety seats, or additional drivers. Be aware that these extras usually come at an additional cost, so carefully consider which options you truly need.

One-way rentals offer the ultimate convenience for those looking to pick-up their car at one location and drop it off at another. Perfect for island-hopping adventurers or those with busy itineraries! Just keep in mind there may be additional drop fees involved. No worries, though – as you search on our website, you’ll be able to see these fees laid out. So account for these costs in your budget while considering a one-way rental.

If you require adaptive driving equipment due to a disability, contact the rental car company in advance to discuss availability and any additional fees after booking. They can usually accommodate your needs and ensure a comfortable driving experience.

Airport Rental Cars in Hawaii

The majority of our clients choose an airport for their car rental. Airport locations are convenient and often have the widest selection of vehicles. Occasionally, off-airport car rentals located in town or at a resort are better suited, especially if the rental is a spur-of-the-moment choice. Most islands have multiple off-airport locations.

Hawaii Car Rentals by Island

Each island in Hawaii is unique. For travelers who plan to visit for more than a week, island-hopping is a fun way to see multiple islands in one trip. Hawaiian Air provides transportation between islands, and booking with them is recommended. In addition, individual car rentals at each island’s airport offer the most effortless transition from airplane to lodging.
