Renting a car for ONE day

Hey

I usually rent a car for one day when on Oahu to get myself to the North Shore.

I%26#39;ve rented from downtown Waikiki before and paid way too much.

Wondering if anyone else does this and from where you have rented.

I know Enterprise%26#39;s motto is ';we%26#39;ll pick you up';. So, does this mean that if I get a great rate with them for a car at the airport they will pick me up and bring me to my car???

Help!

Renting a car for ONE day

I have rented from Enterprise in Waikiki for the last two years and have received good prices. They asked me if I needed a ride back to my hotel both times but since I was only staying two blocks away I declined.


We leave May 16. I just booked a small car for 2 days on Oahu through Dollar and it was $16.20 per day. With taxes it was just over $40. I didn%26#39;t think that was bad at all.

They have a counter at the Pacific Beach Hotel which is next door to the ResortQuest we are staying at.

Stay away from Hertz in the Hyatt. We used them a couple months ago ... and they were in complete meltdown! Also very expensive!


There are a couple of rental agencies on Seaside St. in Waikiki.

Enterprise at 445 SEASIDE AVE 808-922-0090(not toll free) seems to have the best price.

Alamo-1778 ALA MOANA 888-826-6893

National - 1778 ALA MOANA BLVD 888-826-6890

Thrifty - 325 SEASIDE AVENUE, WAIKIKI 877 283-0898


I rented a car for one day just a few weeks ago with Alamo on Ala Moana. The gave me a great deal on a Malibu Classic - $36.99 plus tax for the day. The staff was very nice and it was very painless. They%26#39;re at 1778 Ala Moana, 888-826-6893. I rented to go to the North Shore as well and had a wonderful time. Have fun!


Be careful about saying ';downtown'; and ';Waikiki'; together.

';Downtown'; is the financial/business district.

';Waikiki'; is about 3 miles away and is a different district.

You don%26#39;t want to confuse the car rental agent.

the key is to reserve in advance and lock in the rate, I think waikiki is a touch more than the airport but not much. If you just walk up and say give me a car they will charge double the internet price.
