Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Kona Intl. Airport (KOA)?
With Avis and Payless within a short drive of Kona Intl. Airport (KOA), getting off the plane and onto the open road is easy.
What happens if I need to cancel my Kawaihae car reservation?
No need to worry. You should be eligible for a total refund if you advise us at least six hours ahead of the collection time. Your itinerary contains details about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid bookings result in a refund though, so it's a good idea to go over the car's cancellation policy.
What types of cars can I rent in Kawaihae?
Follow the crowds and opt for an intermediate. The preferred rental car group in Kawaihae has more comfort and room than a compact model, and is not as big or bulky as a full-size vehicle. You'll be able to easily get around bustling streets in an intermediate. Want a lot more style and space? You can't beat a premium rental. Our economy vehicles will make your wallet happy if you're holidaying on a budget.
Where can I go on a road trip from Kawaihae?
There's so much to do in Kawaihae, but venture further afield and you'll find more sightseeing magic. Book a set of wheels and you can meander around the greater area at your own speed. Add these awesome places to your travel plan:

  • Kaanapali is approximately 137 kilometres from Kawaihae. Renowned sights like Kaanapali Beach deserve a place on your must-see list here.
  • Your next pit stop? Kahaluu Bay, which is around 48 kilometres away. Magic Sands Beach is one local highlight you really shouldn't miss.
  • Diamond Head is approximately 241 kilometres from Kawaihae and is one of the region's most gorgeous nature spots. Pack a picnic lunch and enjoy the fresh air here.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Kawaihae with Expedia?
It's easy to score an amazing deal with Expedia. All you have to do is choose your wheels, select your dates and preferred pickup and drop-off locations, and browse offers from leading rental suppliers. Save even more when you combine your Kawaihae car rental with hotel or flight bookings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Kawaihae?
You need to be at least 21. But there are a handful of age-related rules to bear in mind before reserving your wheels in Kawaihae. If you're a younger motorist, rental providers will likely charge an additional daily fee and limit the types of cars you can rent. This size of the surcharge, and which age range it applies to, differs between suppliers. It's always a good idea to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in Kawaihae?
A current driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? In that case, you're also likely to need proof of other coverage. Rules can differ between rental suppliers, so read your policy thoroughly.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Kawaihae?
Yes. Expedia partners with trusted companies that offer weekly and monthly rentals for many categories of cars. Pick up one of our long-term car rental deals and discover every turn of Kawaihae — or beyond!
Where can I find a Kawaihae car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look into the age policy of the Kawaihae rental suppliers you're considering. If you're under the age of 25, some companies will charge additional fees. It's best to know about this before collecting the vehicle so you can have the funds ready. Every rental car company has its own policies for young drivers, so do your research.
