Tips for renting a car in Maui

Browse helpful tips for renting a car in Maui including age restrictions, car type suggestions and more. Tips were last updated on 27 April 2024.
  • Infants under one year of age or weighing less than 20 pounds must be secured in a rear-facing car seat. After outgrowing car seats, children must use a booster seat until they are at least 4 feet 9 inches tall (145 cm) and can sit properly with the seatbelt. Children who have outgrown booster seats should use a seatbelt. It is recommended that all passengers use seatbelts, and it is the law in Hawaii for all passengers to be properly restrained. Children under the age of 12 should ride in the back seat when possible.
  • In urban areas like Kahului, Wailuku, and Lahaina, you'll encounter numerous gas stations. As you venture into more remote regions, such as the famous Road to Hana, or upcountry areas like Makawao and Kula, gas stations may become less frequent. It's advisable to start your journey with a full tank when traveling to less populated or isolated areas, ensuring you have enough fuel for your planned route. Most gas stations accept major credit cards and cash, but having some cash on hand is a good practice, particularly at smaller, local stations.
  • Credit cards are the most widely accepted form of payment for renting a car. Major credit card companies like Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover are commonly accepted. The credit card used for payment usually needs to be in the primary driver's name. Some car rental companies accept debit cards as a form of payment. However, they may place a hold or authorization on the debit card for a specified amount to cover the rental and potential additional charges. While less common, some rental car companies may accept cash payments.

Car rental FAQs

Find answers to frequently asked questions about car rentals in Maui, including policies, requirements, and more. FAQs were last updated on 27 April 2024.
  • Should I rent a car in Maui?

    Maui boasts a diverse array of attractions, from its stunning beaches and national parks to its lush valleys and picturesque scenic drives. Renting a car on the island offers a valuable degree of flexibility, enabling you to set your own pace and fully embrace all that Maui has to offer. With a rental car, you have the liberty to come and go as you desire, optimizing your time while visiting. Whether you're planning to venture into less-frequented locales, embark on hikes, or explore secluded beaches, having a car becomes indispensable for accessing these hidden gems. Additionally, the convenience of a rental car can save you precious time, freeing you from the constraints of public transportation schedules or the need to wait for taxis.

  • What is driving like in Maui?

    The island boasts scenic routes that showcase its natural beauty, from coastal roads to lush valleys and mountainous terrains, offering picturesque journeys. While the main highways are generally well-maintained, some less-traveled roads to remote areas may be narrower and winding. Traffic congestion, particularly in popular tourist spots during peak seasons, is not uncommon. Be attentive to rapidly changing weather conditions, especially in mountainous regions, and stay cautious. Wildlife and local customs should be respected, and parking regulations should be observed. For those embarking on the iconic Road to Hana, be prepared for narrow roads, one-lane bridges, and potentially heavy traffic, all of which are rewarded with breathtaking scenery.

  • How old will I need to be to rent a car in Maui?

    In Maui, as well as across Hawaii, the typical minimum age for car rentals is 21 years. Nevertheless, certain rental companies might mandate that renters be at least 25 years old to avoid incurring extra fees or surcharges. For individuals falling within the age bracket of 21 to 24, a "young driver" fee may be applicable, resulting in an increased rental cost due to the perceived higher risk associated with younger drivers. It is imperative to thoroughly examine the specific age requirements and policies established by the car rental company you intend to utilize in Maui, as these criteria and potential fees can diverge among different rental agencies. Always take the time to carefully review the terms and conditions, and inquire about any additional charges if you are under 25 years old.
