We had such a great experience renting Reid’s car! The car was clean, reliable, comfortable, and exactly what we needed for our trip to Maui. Reid was also amazing with communication—he was very responsive, helpful, and made the whole rental process super easy and stress-free. Everything went smoothly from pickup to drop-off. We would definitely rent from Reid again and highly recommend him!

Kia Forte 2021

Great car with no problems. Great communication with the owners. The spot for the car pickup was a bit unclear; we had a bit of a hard time finding the location with the address given using Google Maps (maybe some photos or coordinates for the location would help), but due to the quick communication, we were able to find it quickly. Given the good price compared to other options in the area, would definitely recommend this and even rent it myself again.

The car was freshly washed and with a clean inside when we got it from the airport parking lot. The Kia soul was more fun to drip than expected. Would rent it again when we return to Maui.

Our 6-day Maui vacation was made even better thanks to this amazing Turo host. From the moment we booked the car until check-out, he was incredibly responsive, friendly, and helpful. He went above and beyond by providing proactive tips and recommendations about Maui that made our trip smooth, stress-free, and much more enjoyable. The car itself was excellent—clean, reliable, very smooth to drive, and incredibly fuel-efficient, which was perfect for exploring the island. Everything about the rental process was seamless. I highly recommend renting from this host if you're visiting Maui. Thank you for helping make our vacation such a wonderful experience!
