Subaru Forester 2023

Loved the vehicle! Clean, great gas mileage, beautiful sun roof! It got us safely to our destinations all over the island. Retrieving the car was a pretty seamless process. The price of the car was also cheaper than any of the local car rental companies, even Costco. I would definitely rent from them again:)

Car was great and rode great and this host was wonderful meeting us and dropping off which was easy and stress free. Hands down way better than a normal rental car company and more selection than one so if you have a chance to rent this car you will be happy with it and yes Subaru start funny and its OK to think different but its a Subaru thing. Im a mechanic and know they start differently than a normal ford or chevy. Aloha and hope to visit again one day......

Subaru Forester 2026

Everything went great with the rental. The truck we had originally rented was not going to be available due to that rental driver being injured. Kevin was great in communicating this and offering us an alternative car which was a 2026 Subaru. We were concerned because we had a rentes a truck in order to hold surfboards and gear. Kevin made sure to include roof racks for us so we could travel with surfboards. The car had less than 800 miles on it when we got it so it was literally brand new. We will definitely rent from Turo again!

Subaru Crosstrek 2018

Here’s a casual review you can leave for Levi on Turo: Levi was an amazing host! Rented his Subaru Crosstrek while visiting Honolulu with my two sisters and it made getting around the island super easy and convenient. The car was clean, reliable, and perfect for beach days, food spots, and exploring. Pickup/drop-off instructions were very clear, and all directions and information were simple to follow which made the whole process stress-free, especially while traveling. Communication was great and everything went smoothly from start to finish. Would definitely rent from Levi again next time we’re in Hawaii. Mahalo! 🌺 This version sounds genuine, traveler-friendly, and highlights convenience communication (which hosts love in reviews).

Subaru Forester 2017

I rented Chris's subaru forester for 15 days in Kauai in late May 2026. The car was exactly as described. It was clean and ran well. I'm glad it had storm mats as that made it easier to get sand out before I returned it (we went to the beach every day) The shuttle to and from the airport to the car parking lot by Target was easy to use and Chris was very responsive throughout the booking process and before/during the rental. I highly recommend using this vehicle. It was also nice to blend in with the locals in Kauai.

The host was fantastic. The space in the car was very spacious. It was seven of us total 5 teenage children. Not one scoot over or or get off of me. All the rows are very adjustable to seat to size. You even have a carrier on top that you can fit luggage or bikes. Will rent again!!!

Subaru Crosstrek 2022

This was my first ever experience with Turo and boy did I strike gold for such a first experience. The pick-up instructions were crystal clear and easy to understand. I was off my plane and standing at the rental car within 10 mins if even that. The car was clean and operated so well. I drive a Subaru back at home so it was a treat to rent a vehicle that I was already pretty familiar with and get to drive it around the Big Island on my adventures. I had to adjust my pick-up and drop-off times ever-so-slightly due to flight changes and the hosts were very flexible and made the changes with no issue. If / When I come back to the Big Island, I will absolutely rent this vehicle again. It was that much of a pleasure from start to finish.

Great car and super easy process. Renting the Subaru with Ben was far easier than standing in line at the car rental counter. It was a great car to whip around the island in.

The host was easy to work with and the Subaru was clean, full of gas and ready for adventure. Finding the car was somewhat of a challenge in the dark and light rain. The parking lot light was burned out and in a dark area. This was my second time renting with Peter and would rent again. Mahalo
