There is no better way to see everything Kauai has to offer than by getting behind the wheel of your Dollar rental car. Don't spend your time waiting for the bus or hailing taxis to go to the sights. Having your own ride allows you to go to the areas you want to see the most, when you want. Make your upcoming trip to Hawaii even better with a Dollar rental car.
With everything to do in and around Kauai, you'll be wanting to explore more than just your hotel room during your stay. Whether you have to check out the cafe that has gotten rave reviews across town or see some of the local favorites, you'll want your own set of wheels to see and do as much as you can while on your trip. No matter where you end up staying in Kauai, if you wish to get the most out of your visit, having access to your vehicle is a must.
CarRentals.com works with some of the finest rental car companies in the industry. Dollar prides itself on exceptional customer service. Dollar's attention to its fleet of quality rentals and customer service is bolstered by their impressive vacation planning and business travel services.
We try to get you the best price, whether you reserve your vehicle. But reserving ahead of time can help you save even more. Be sure to check the mileage policy and keeping it to one driver will reduce your expense.
You'll need to present credit card, as well as your driver's license.
Most suppliers in Kauai set the minimum age to rent a car at 21. Take time to read through Dollar's policies, as there may be limitations if you are under 25 or for higher category cars especially.
That all depends on your needs and what you'll be doing when you visit Kauai. Economy or compact cars are easier to park and good for short commutes. If you are traveling with colleagues or family, then a sedan or SUV is going to have more room for luggage and be a more comfortable ride. Those looking for a touch of luxury on their Kauai vacation can choose the premium category to get a car like a Cadillac or Audi or similar.
In the United States you do need to have insurance before you rent. Many major credit card issuers (Discover, American Express, Visa and MasterCard) usually offer coverage. But many of them have restrictions, such as not covering larger vehicles, like premium models or some SUVs. Be sure to call your credit card company and find out what kind of coverage is offered before you head to Kauai. Otherwise, as a United States citizen, you can also purchase Collision Damage Coverage with CarRentals.com at checkout.
Dollar does require a deposit when you reserve your rental car. Dollar will block the deposit on your credit once you reserve your car for your trip. Please be aware that the deposit may vary greatly based on the model and make of the rental.
We suggest a full to full policy. You pick up your Dollar rental with the needle at "F". But, if you return your rental with less than the amount it was given to you, most companies will charge a premium, and sometimes up to triple the amount of current fuel prices to refill it. If you want to keep your expenses lower, it is best to find a filling station before you return the car to Dollar.
Kauai certainly has its charms, but you may want to hit the road after you've checked off all the activities in Kauai.
Dollar offers one-way rentals in most cases. You may find it easier to drop off your vehicle at another location. Be aware there is typically an additional charge when you pick one-way.
With so much to do and see in Kauai, having access to a set of wheels lets you explore at your own pace. When you're ready to see more of Hawaii, you can drive wherever you want to, without having to hanging out a stop waiting for the bus or wave down a taxi.
Before you head out of town, book your Dollar Kauai rent-a-car and visit all the items on your itinerary at your own pace. Reserve with CarRentals.com and cruise the open road in Kauai, Hawaii.
