Ford Mustang 2024

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!

Solid rental experience. Car was as described. Had no issues and the host was communicative when I needed to change the reservation by a few days or hours. Super convenient location near the airport. Best price for the amount of time I needed it which was about 2 weeks. Will definitely rent again when I'm in town.

Van was great. Hosts were accommodating even though pickup at MCO is not easy with having to use shuttles and off property lots. I would rent again, just not sure I’d choose Turo over the car rental companies in Orlando because of convenience factor of the ease from rental companies being right there at the airport.

My host responded to messages quickly and pickup at the airport parking lot was easy. The car was clean and comfortable. Drop off at the airport parking lot was easy. The whole process was easier and less expensive than if I’d used a standard car rental agency. This was my first time renting through Turo and I am a convert.
