KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Lahaina

  • Lahaina car hire gives you the freedom to discover the town on the island entirely. Having a car makes the journey comfortable if you travel with your child, as you can make as many stops as you want. You also avoid the hustle of getting on a bus with your luggage and the crowds at the stations. Economically, hiring a car is cheaper than paying for cab fares to every destination. You also manage your schedule without relying on public transport schedules. A car is necessary if you want to visit Haleakala National Park, a distance away from Lahaina.
  • Kapalua Airport, which is a small airport, is about ten minutes from Lahaina city centre. It does not have car rental services on the premise. However, many Lahaina car hires companies service the airport from their offsite airport facilities. They provide shuttle services from the airport to their offices, where you can pick up your rental car.
  • Always drive your car from car hire in Lahaina on the right and pass on the left. Rarely do locals use the names of the highways; thus, it might be a bit confusing, but the directions compass based. Be alert while driving in Lahaina as the locals go very slow as the speed limits are low. Watch out for pedestrians as they may step on the road unexpectedly. Always beware that other drivers may also get distracted by the beautiful scenery on the road.
  • Lahaina town does not have a large population, and experiencing traffic is rare. However, during rush hours, around 1600hrs, the single-lane roads surrounding the city may build traffic. Do not expect to see multi-lane freeways, as most roads are country roads. Due to the city's location, sometimes the roads can be very windy, and thus exercise caution. It can also be frustrating when using the passing lane as slower drivers use it for a long time, and the speed limits are very low.
  • Book your car hire in Lahaina at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Supplier choice hire cars in Lahaina are around 24% more expensive than other car types, on average

Always look out for road signs, as the speed may vary depending on where you are in Lahaina.

  • Where are the best places to park in Lahaina?

    Lahaina has very little on-street parking, and it may be hard to get out of the street parking due to traffic. The city has many paid car parks and a couple of free ones. The largest car park is at the corner of Front Street and Prison Street, but it is often full because it is free. Car park on Lahaina Harbour, Lahainaluna Road and Font St offers free parking for the first two hours. On the northern side of Papalaua street is another car park though you have to pay. Alternatively, use the paid car park behind the Wharf Cinema centre.

Pros:

Staff onsite was super friendly at the 30 Halawai location

Cons:

Little confusing when booking online. Started with a Westin location, they told me the only office that had a Jeep was the “airport” location, which turned out to be right across the street from my hotel. They did phone the location and let them know I was coming. And, my car was not there, they went and got it and I was on my way

Apr 2021

KAYAK

Pros:

Nothing- I’ll never use National again, or Rentacars.com

Cons:

I made the reservation to pick up the car at OGG in Maui. The reservation kicked me over to pick up at the airport in West Maui, without my knowledge. When I discovered this three days before my trip, I tried to call and remedy the situation. No cars were available at OGG, which I understand, due to low inventory. The real clincher was when I told the National office in West Maui that I wouldn’t be able to pick up for an hour later than originally planned, due to now having to take an expensive Uber to get there after landing. They told me I was out of luck since the office closes at 5pm. I was basically screwed. I had to make a new reservation at Avis (last minute) for $800 more, which pretty much ruined my vacation.

O dropped off at a different location and they put the wrong address on the rental agreement for drop off. I went to the location on the agreement and the place was closed. When I tried to call to get the correct address, the employee gave me the same wrong address and told me to just drive around and look for it. She was not at the location and said she wasn’t familiar with it, but also couldn’t transfer me to anyone who worked there.

This rental location purports to be for the JHM airport, but in fact is located a 10 minute drive away. They provided a ride from the JHM airport to the car rental location on arrival, but on departure, the departing flight was too early, so I had to take and pay for a taxi to the airport after dropping off the car. How can you claim to be a car rental location for an airport if you can't even get there during scheduled flights? Awful.

National rental at the Kahului Airport was a very pleasant experience. The place is easily accessible from the terminal - either a 3 minute walk or a breezy tram ride to the new, clean facility. Finding the National desk was also easy. Once inside, the counter person was very pleasant and quickly helped me work through an unforeseen issue. She was cheerful, professional and made me feel welcome. The man at the car lot asked me how many in my party, and whether our luggage was a little or a lot. He directed us to the better-fitting SUV still in the same car class, but really a more efficient vehicle for our needs. The car was clean, got good fuel economy and had bells and whistles, like car connect which made the map feature on my phone safer to observe, all of which made the trip super easy. I would definitely use National again, particularly because of the customer service (and the price was not nearly as nose-bleed as I expected).

Hertz was terrible because they said YOU were responsible for my rental contract and nothing could be changed, fixed, or resolved about the rental contract, even though every email and contact was directed towards Hertz. Not once did they say “call Kayak.” The staff never answered their phones, and when they did, they put me on hold for 30 minutes, and between Anthony, Rhona, Carli and DJ (JD?), only the last person tried to help, and he worked for the Hertz Roadside recovery out of Ohio. Ridiculous. Never making that mistake to work through Kayak or Hertz again. I haven’t even received a receipt saying that my car was returned, even though it was 12 hours ago. Do you have my final contract? Bad service all around.
