Tips for Renting a Car in Waikiki
Waikiki is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. In fact, over six millions visitors come to Oahu each year. Waikiki is popular for a good reason: it is a 3 square mile microcosm of Hawaii that many choose not to leave. Top notch hotels? Check. Pristine beaches? Most definitely. Shopping? Indubitably. Fine dining? You got it Jobin!
If you’re like most, you’re looking for transportation that’ll take you to the North Shore. Your best option is to rent a car. Here we’ll lay out how you should think about renting a car in Waikiki to save you and your family the most money and get the most out of your while staying stress-free.
Free Parking in Waikiki
Parking is probably the biggest and most unexpected headache for those who thought they nabbed a deal on a car rental. Most hotels and parking operators will charge anywhere from $35 to $50 per night for parking in Waikiki. With Hui Car Share, parking is free. When you pick up a car from a station, that parking stall is allocated to you. Simple reserve it for the just the amount you need and stop paying for excess time on your rental! Tourists tell us this is their favorite thing about Hui Car Share. For more information about parking in Waikiki, check out our Definitive Guide to Parking in Waikiki.
A faster experience than with national car rental brands
National car rental brands will tempt you by advertising low daily rates. However, those prices ignore the hidden cost of overnight parking, insurance coverage, 24/7 roadside assistance, and fuel. You, the car renter, has to cover all of those additional costs. With Hui, we cover all of those hidden costs.
With national rental brands, you are subject to a full-contact experience. The Hui app seamlessly handles registration and vehicle entry which means that you don’t need to stand in lines to pick up a car. All you need to do is walk up to any Hui vehicle and unlock it with the app.
With national brands, your vehicle access is restricted to the brand’s branch hours. All Hui Car Share vehicles are accessible to pick up and drop off 24/7. That means that you can stop planning your trip schedule around rental car hours.
If you’re wondering how Hui stacks up against other car rental companies, sign up and give it a shot. We guarantee you’ll love it.
