  • What are the requirements to rent a car in Waikiki?

    You must be at least 21 years old with a valid credit card to purchase cheap car rentals in Waikiki. If you're younger than 25, you'll incur "Youthful Driver" charges and will be restricted to certain vehicle classes. Most car rentals in Waikiki will allow you to drive an economy rental car with an active temporary license. Non-U.S. renters with non-English driver's licenses must attach an International Driver's License for the purpose of translation. EU drivers with a current license can rent and operate any rental cars in Waikiki.

  • What are the laws for driving in Waikiki?

    Waikiki has a lot of foot traffic; therefore, be sure to yield to pedestrians using crosswalks and keep to the posted speed limit of 25 mph in the downtown area or city center. Avoid driving rental cars in Waikiki with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08% or higher. Your Waikiki car rental should have functioning seat belts and booster seats for children under eight. We recommend checking with the relevant Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) in the region to be up to date on current traffic laws in Waikiki.

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Waikiki?

    One excellent way to discover Oahu's coastline is aboard a classy standard-sized convertible like a Ford Mustang. An economy or compact car is ideal for adventurers who want to travel in comfort without breaking the bank. If you're traveling with family or a large group of friends, you can't go wrong with a mid-sized SUV or fuel-efficient passenger van rental. Currently, Honolulu has over 150 fast-charging stations that are readily available for those environmentally conscious travelers with their electric car rentals.

  • What are the best places to park in Waikiki?

    While you may be better off if your hotel has on-site parking, be prepared to part with about $30-50 per night for parking. Finding free parking spots (Ala Wai Boulevard) or inexpensive parking (Waikiki Banyan, east Waikiki or Wai Boat Harbor, and west Waikiki) is challenging. While there is metered street parking on Kuhio and Kalakaua Avenues, beach parking on Ala Moana Beach, and even parking garages, most of these are first-come-first-served and are often full. If you do find a spot, expect to pay upwards of $1.50-3.00 per hour.

  • What are gas prices like in Waikiki?

    The average gas price in Waikiki is $4.01/gallon over the past month, costing you anywhere between $48 and $69 to fill up a car’s gas tank.
