⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great experience from start to finish! The car was clean, comfortable, and reliable. The host was friendly, responsive, accommodating and made the entire rental process easy and stress-free. Pickup and drop-off were seamless, and I had no issues with the car during my trip. I would definitely rent from this host again and highly recommend them!

Excellent car, communicative host. I picked up the car with minimial difficulty near the SNA airport and returned it on time with. It is basically a new car with XM radio and good AC. I guess I didn't follow the correct procedure to return the car (the app sends me some message to open an app that has no "return" button), but I complained about some fee that was added 30 minutes later and it was removed. I think the Turo app can be made easier to use but seems to be mainly selling add ons like the other car rental companies. Turo has not yet reached the point of commoditization (like uber, airbnb, etc.) that makes the rates the same as the old economy companies so I will use it again until it does.

Host is great and friendly, unlike other host that requires you to book two days in a row, Daniel let us book it for 1 day. Car has great handling and steering feels. Good price to rent.
Car was perfect. Clean reliable and the AC is surprisingly powerful in this heat. It gets nice and cold when driving for a few minutes. Great car and great price. Easy all the way around,

The car was great, it drove smoothly, and it was clean. Pick up was easy and communication with the host was speedy and was kind through the rental/pickup/drop off process. I would definitely rent it again.

This was my first turn rental and I couldn't be happier. The communication between me and the host was excellent. The phone number provided was always answered. The car was great, I enjoyed it so much I had it detailed before returning it. Pass on the good karma, this was a hassle free pickup and return. Will rent again from this host.

Pickup was easy, and the car ran smoothly without issue for my 2-week rental period. The host was very responsive. The car itself is fine for the price. The radio display doesn’t work and the brakes squeak a bit, but it does the job. Would rent again!
This was my first Turo rental and it was amazing. I truly recommend anyone who is looking to rent a car to rent from Kenai. Easy pick up, easy drop off, clean beautiful car and awesome host. Thank you again Kenai :)

Chloe is the best host ever. Very responsive and helps in any way she can. Car is amazing and very fuel efficient. Definitely will rent it again!
This is my second time renting from this host, and they are absolutely the best! The car is always in perfect condition, and communication is seamless. I will definitely rent from them again next time I'm in town. Highest recommendation
Adrian was a great host and answered all my questions ahead of the rental. For context I needed/rented this car for basically 3 months flying to LA from the East Coast for an internship. While other Turo hosts canceled on me and didn’t provide a level of detail about the car that I needed prior to, Adrian was great and patient with my questions, and I would rent from him again! For the Jetta itself, it runs very nicely for an older car. When I used the car, it was a little below 90k miles, and I added maybe 3900 miles and had no problems. The one thing I will say, which I wasn’t surprised by is you’ll feel the bumps on the road a bit because of the type of car and because it’s on the older side, but that’s kinda to be expected. Overall 5/5 rental and experience!
The car was very smooth, clean, and economical. I really enjoyed driving it and everything was exactly what I needed for my trip. One of my favorite little details was having a phone charger already available! I’m always forgetting mine, so not having to worry about my phone dying was such a great convenience. 😊 Overall, a great experience, and I would definitely rent this car again!

Jim and Arianna are very kind hosts. Their car is well maintained and beautifully spec’d. I’ll definitely rent from them again
Perfect experience! Car was ready and waiting for me at pick up. No paperwork or delays to deal with. I had booked the car for 6 days however, my plans changed and I needed to return the car early. Mo was very accommodating and gave me instructions how to modify my reservation. I really appreciate that Mo! Thanks again!

Irvine is a city designed for drivers — wide boulevards, easy freeway access, and a layout that makes getting around straightforward. Whether you're navigating rush hour, seeking out the best car rental deals, or simply planning your route, these local driving tips will help keep your trip smooth.
Driving in Irvine is generally a smooth experience. The roads are wide, lanes are clearly marked, and speed limits are strictly observed. That said, rush hours can be busy, especially along major corridors and connecting highways. Stay vigilant when changing lanes, and if you're new to the area, give yourself extra time during peak commutes.
You'll find ample parking in suburban areas, but spaces near major shopping centers and the city center fill up quickly. Many shopping districts offer free parking, while metered and structured options are common in busier zones. Garages are modern and often show real-time availability — a nice feature when hunting for a spot near Newport Beach on a weekend.
Irvine sits along several Orange County toll roads — check how your rental handles tolls before you go. Some vehicles may have a transponder, so confirm the arrangement with your host before hitting the road.
Fueling up in Irvine is easy, with gas stations throughout the city center, suburban neighborhoods, and along major highways. EV chargers are widely available near shopping districts, office parks, and residential areas. If you're driving an electric vehicle rental in Irvine, you'll find plenty of Level 2 chargers to keep you powered up.
Irvine's layout favors drivers. While there are public transit options, they aren't designed for quick trips across the city or to neighboring beaches. Whether you're venturing to Laguna Beach, exploring car rental across California, or simply enjoying the autonomy of your own schedule, having a rental car in Irvine gives you flexibility that public transit can't match.
* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host's vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host's vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance that is included in protection plans, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host's vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site.
