I will give a 5 star because the host was nice how ever the address that’s posted on the app for pick up and drop off are not where you will be picking up and dropping off. No clear instructions language barrier may have been the issue. I had to pick up the car at the airport parking structure which was a bit difficult specially if you’re not familiar wasn’t hard after I figure it out but price and everything else was fine. Would be nice to know where you are dropping off and picking up car ahead of reservation
Wow. Just wow. If you’re planning to rent a car while in Oahu, this Ford Mustang convertible is absolutely the way to do it. There’s nothing like dropping the top and cruising along the island coastlines with the Hawaiian sun and ocean views around you. It honestly became one of the highlights of our trip. The car itself was spotless, fun to drive, and perfect for exploring the island. But what really made the experience exceptional was Gabriel. From start to finish, he was incredibly responsive, professional, and accommodating. Pick-up and drop-off were seamless, and he went out of his way to make everything easy and stress-free for our family. If you’re considering renting a vehicle in Oahu, do yourself a favor and rent from Gabriel. You won’t regret it!
Allow me to set the scene, I had a free rental through a popular rental car chain but decided to take the road less traveled and grab a vehicle on Turo for this trip. Besides coming to Hawaii, this was the best decision I’ve made. Burak was very kind and helpful through this experience and the ride was amazing! It was a decision of a bigger vehicle or convertible, but a convertible with three other adults just seemed cramped. Well this 2026 Jeep Wrangler gave us space and an automatic retracting roof. Push a button and it does the work. The speakers switched to overhead automatically so we could still vibe. Going through the canyon with that open to hit north shore was a perfect moment. I even extended by a day and Burak quickly approved. I would definitely rent another vehicle through him for future trips.
Amazing experience with both the car and the host!The vehicle was clean, well maintained, and exactly as described. Everything worked perfectly, and the car made the trip even more enjoyable. The host was very friendly, responsive, and helpful throughout the whole rental process. Communication was easy, pickup and drop-off were smooth, and overall everything felt professional and stress-free. Highly recommend renting from this host — definitely would book again!
Maria was an amazing host! Her communication was awesome from start to finish super responsive, clear, and made the whole rental process smooth and stress free. The Jeep was absolutely perfect for our trip in Maui, especially for the beautiful Road to Hāna. It handled everything great and was the perfect vehicle for my family to comfortably enjoy all the stops and scenery along the way. Clean, reliable, and exactly what we needed for an unforgettable trip. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend renting from Maria if you’re visiting Maui!
Absolutely amazing experience renting this Mustang through Turo! The car was clean, well-maintained, and an absolute blast to drive. Everything about the rental process was smooth and easy from start to finish. The owner was incredibly friendly, responsive, and made the whole experience stress-free. You can tell they really care about both the vehicle and their guests. I would definitely rent from them again and highly recommend this Mustang to anyone looking for a fun and reliable ride!
The service here at LA Auto was the most respectful I've ever had. I will always come here and rent when I come to Oahu. The Ford mustang convertible is a must for the island. You guys are awesome. I will be back soon
The car rental process was seamless from start to finish. My host was amazing, super friendly, helpful and made everything so easy. I had a great experience overall and would definitely recommend.! I will absolutely be renting again ! :)
Very straightforward rental process. Arrived at the pick up, got in the car, drove it around for 4 days, cleaned it up, dropped it off in the same lot and checked out. Host was easily reachable by phone.
Great jeep. These type of tires have road noise. Great value. I would rent again. Not my wife's cup of tea, lifted so harder for some people.to get in and out. 4 cyl turbo.t tops.
The car was amazing and the rental process was extremely easy and convenient! Would definitely use again!
Car was in good condition for its age and mileage. Reasonable price, friendly host. Would rent again.
William was a great host. He communicated well, clearly and timely. It was my first time using Turo. He kindly answered all my questions and provided clear instructions. He was flexible and met me when we arrived at the vehicle, which wasn’t my originally selected pick-up time. I have a toddler that had traveled across time zones so the flexibility was appreciated! The vehicle was lovely, clean and taken care of. I would definitely rent from William again.
BEST RENTAL CAR EVER! It was so fun to drive and the top was easy enough to take off after watching a video. Friends loved it. Girls couldn’t get enough of it. Decent gas mileage. Would love to rent again. I might get a wrangler after renting this lol
Communication was great and the ride was a lot of fun during my visit to Maui. Very good trunk space for a car of this type, could fit all of our luggage (2 people) with no problems!
Absolutely the perfect rental for exploring Oahu! We had an incredible experience renting this 2023 Jeep Wrangler. The two of us used it to drive all around the island of Oahu, and it was hands down the best decision we made for our trip. The vehicle was in flawless condition — no issues whatsoever from start to finish. It handled every road beautifully. The host was fantastic — super friendly, attentive, and made the whole pickup and drop-off process completely smooth and stress-free. You could tell they genuinely care about their guests having a great experience. If you’re visiting Oahu and want to explore the island freely and comfortably, look no further. We’ll definitely be booking again on our next visit. Highly recommend — 10/10!
Great jeep! We had so much fun - easy rental and process. Pick up location was convenient. Best way to see the island! We had grandparents and kids on this trip and everyone loved it!
This BMW 2 Series Convertible is literally the best car to rent if you plan on doing a little driving around the island. Rent it for the experience. It’s a sick looking car and it drives beautifully. Very comfortable for 2 people. Car was in perfect shape and gave me no problems. Very fun car to drive around the mountains. I was considering something a little more fuel efficient like a Prius, but this absolutely makes the trip a blast. You’re not going to spend much on gas regardless. Treat yourself, you’ll thank me later. Host was extremely accommodating. Never left me hanging for a second whenever we had to communicate. Will book again when I’m back.

You can visit the iconic Bondi Beach for surfing and sunbathing, then drive to the scenic Bondi to Coogee coastal walk starting points. The hired convertible gives you freedom to discover Marks Park for whale watching, explore the trendy Bondi Junction shopping precinct, and venture to nearby Tamarama Beach. Having your own vehicle means you can chase the perfect sunset spots and visit multiple beaches in a single day.
Bondi Beach and coastal promenade
Bondi Beach stands as Australia's most famous stretch of sand, attracting surfers and sun-seekers from around the globe. You'll find convenient parking areas near the beach, though arriving early secures the best spots during peak season. The convertible car hire allows you to cruise the coastal roads with ocean views stretching to the horizon.
Bondi to Coogee coastal walk access points
This spectacular clifftop trail offers multiple entry points that become easily accessible when you have a rental car. You can park at various locations along the route including Tamarama, Bronte, and Clovelly beaches. The hired convertible lets you start at different sections and experience diverse coastal scenery throughout your visit.
Marks Park lookout and whale watching
Marks Park provides elevated views over Bondi and Tamarama beaches, making it perfect for whale watching during migration season. The park offers parking facilities and picnic areas surrounded by native vegetation. Your rental convertible makes reaching this scenic vantage point effortless while enjoying panoramic ocean vistas.

• By car: Take the A8 from Sydney CBD through Paddington and Woollahra

Frequently asked questions in Bondi
Why choose a convertible for exploring Bondi's coastal roads?
A rental convertible offers the perfect way to experience Bondi's stunning coastal scenery with the wind in your hair and unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean. The luxury of an open-top vehicle enhances every moment as you cruise along the scenic routes, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the fresh sea breeze and panoramic vistas. Convertible car hire provides an unforgettable driving experience that transforms a simple journey into a memorable adventure along Australia's most iconic coastline.
How do you operate a convertible roof properly?
Most modern convertible cars feature electronic roof controls located near the handbrake or centre console, requiring you to hold the button until the roof fully opens or closes. Always ensure your rental car is stationary or travelling at very low speeds when operating the convertible mechanism, as most systems won't function above certain speeds for safety reasons. Check that no objects or passengers obstruct the roof's path before activation, and familiarise yourself with the manual override procedure in case of electronic failure.
What safety tips should convertible drivers follow?
Always secure loose items before opening your convertible roof, as wind can easily catch and scatter belongings while driving through Bondi's coastal areas. Convertible car hire requires extra attention to sun protection — wear sunscreen, sunglasses, and consider a hat to shield yourself from Australia's intense UV rays. Keep your rental convertible locked when parked, as open-top vehicles can be more vulnerable to theft, and store valuables in the boot rather than leaving them visible in the cabin.
Which scenic routes from Bondi suit convertible road trips?
The coastal drive from Bondi to Coogee offers spectacular ocean views and perfect conditions for rental convertible exploration, passing through picturesque beaches and clifftop lookouts. Hired convertibles shine on the route through the Eastern Suburbs, where tree-lined streets and harbour glimpses create an ideal backdrop for open-top driving. The scenic journey towards the Royal National Park provides diverse landscapes perfect for convertible adventures, combining coastal beauty with bushland scenery.
How should you pack for a convertible adventure?
Pack light and secure all items in closed compartments when planning your rental convertible journey around Bondi, as open-top driving can cause loose objects to blow away. Choose soft bags that fit easily in the boot rather than hard cases, and bring extra layers since convertible car hire means you'll experience temperature changes more directly than in enclosed vehicles. Essential items include sunscreen, sunglasses, and a light jacket for when the luxury of open-air driving meets cooler evening temperatures.
What weather factors affect convertible driving?
Strong winds can significantly impact your rental convertible handling, particularly along Bondi's exposed coastal roads where gusts from the ocean require extra attention to steering. Rain obviously necessitates closing your convertible roof immediately, so monitor weather forecasts before embarking on longer journeys around New South Wales. Intense Australian sunshine can make hired convertibles uncomfortably hot when stationary, so seek shaded parking and consider the time of day when planning your open-top adventures.
What documents and paperwork do you need to rent a car on Turo?
To book a car on Turo in Australia, you must create a Turo account, be 21 years old or older, have a valid driver's licence, and get approved to drive on Turo. When you're booking your first trip, you'll go through a quick approval process by entering your driver's licence and some other information. In most cases, you'll get approved immediately, and you'll be set for every future road trip, business trip, and family holiday!
Is there unlimited kilometre car rental on Turo?
Some hosts offer unlimited distance for a trip; others set a daily distance limit — you'll need to check on each rental car individually to see if this service is provided. On the vehicle pages, you'll see the total miles or kilometres you're allowed to drive under the heading "Distance included." You can find cars offering unlimited mileage with every trip by using the "Unlimited distance" filter.
Do I need my own insurance?
You don't need personal insurance coverage to book a car on Turo.
What protection plan options does Turo offer?
When booking a car in Australia, you'll choose between the Premier (if available), Standard, and Minimum protection plans. Each plan includes varying limits on financial responsibility for damage to a host's vehicle. All trips include up to $20,000,000 (per event) in legal liability protection. Legal liability protection protects against damage to other people's property and death or bodily injury (where the legal liability is not covered or capable of being covered by any statutory or compulsory scheme) as a result of an accident involving the vehicle. All protection is provided by Turo Travels Mutual.*
* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan. Review the Guest Product Disclosure Statement for more information.
