KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Lanai City

  • Lanai City car rentals are an easy and convenient way to explore not only Lanai City but also the rest of the small Hawaiian island of Lanai. There is no public transport available on the island unless you are staying in a hotel that offers a shuttle to popular destinations such as different beaches, so car rentals will be the most flexible way for you to travel if you plan on driving car rentals in Lanai City to other locations around the island, such as Shipwreck Beach or the Manele Golf Course.
  • Travelers landing at Lanai Airport (LNY) in Lanai City will be glad to know that picking up Lanai City car rentals is easy at LNY. Lanai City Service Inc. is the only car rental firm at the airport and their desk is located directly in the arrivals area, so there is no need for ground transport to a different location. The airport is also located just 3 miles from downtown Lanai City, so if you would prefer to choose from a wider range of agencies, you can take a taxi into town and pick up your car rentals in Lanai City from there.
  • Lanai City and the surrounding areas are quite rugged, and the terrain can be rough. In addition, only 30 miles of roads on the entire island are paved, so you will likely be driving on a lot of dirt roads, especially outside the city center. Drive on the right-hand side of the road in car rentals in Lanai City and beware of hazards such as rocks and wildlife. There are also no traffic lights on the island of Lanai, so be aware of stop signs and pedestrians who have the right of way.
  • Lanai City, like any other city, experiences morning and evening rush hours. The morning rush typically occurs between 8 am and 10 am, while the evening rush is between 4 pm and 6 pm. It may also be particularly difficult to drive on Lanai’s many unpaved roads during or after significant rainfall, so always pay attention to the weather conditions in Lanai City before getting out on the road.

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Lanai City?

    Because of the many dirt roads and potential hazards that come along with these, it is a good idea to rent a vehicle with 4-wheel drive in Lanai City. This will make it easier to navigate tricky landscapes and terrain. It may also be a good idea to rent an SUV or pickup truck, as these not only typically have 4-wheel drive, but they also are perfect to carry camping or other outdoor equipment to your destination.

  • What’s the speed limit in Lanai City?

    Lanai City is super small, and the slow citywide speed limit reflects this. The maximum speed limit throughout the city is 20 mph. In residential areas outside the city, the speed limit is 25 mph. On Lanai’s rural highways, the speed limit can reach a maximum of 50 mph. This slower speed limit can create a slow traffic flow, so it is important to drive with awareness and patience in Lanai City car rentals.

  • Where are the best places to park in Lanai City?

    Parking in Lanai City is not difficult to find, but there are very few free parking spaces available. If you are staying at a hotel, your hotel may offer free parking to guests. In the city, some natural attractions and monuments have their own parking lots that are often free. Otherwise, there are public parking lots and garages located within and just outside the city where you can leave your Lanai City car rentals and walk to your destination. The city is small and mostly walkable, so this should not pose a problem. The parking lots in the downtown area of Lanai City typically charge between $5 and $10 per day.

Cons:

The car could have been cleaned better - streaky windows in particular Because the location is small there is not much to choose from in terms of inventory Hours - the location closes at 5PM and if your flight is late you will miss them and have to go back in the morning

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

Pros:

The drop off was easy but it’s too far to get back to Lahaina Harbor so we had to get a taxi to get there.

Cons:

Shorter distance to and from car rental would be better. We had to get a taxi to the car rental and back.

Pros:

We had to take a taxi there as the place at the Sheraton within walking was sold out. They were very very busy but shantelle did a good job of moving us through quickly and let us return it at the rental place within walking. The key drop.box was easy to find.

Cons:

I understand they were busy, but they were unable to pick us up so we could get on our way so we had to pay a taxi.

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.
