Recent Honolulu van rental reviews
Van was wonderful for comfort for a large group of people. Very easy and convenient to reserve online. Pick up and return process was smooth. Price very reasonable. The only suggestion I would have is to reveal the exact location of pickup and return before confirming rental. We had to uber a bit to pick up and return van so need to plan ahead.
Best experience ever! Car was the perfect size for our multi-family vacation. And throwing in snorkel gear and a beach wagon for super cheap…definitely worth it. Drop off and pick up were easier than the rental car companies. Highly recommend Jimmy and his crew!
This van is awesome , runs well and host is awesome !!!!! Rent this van for all your family needs , best rental ever. MOH , we truly Appreciate you thank you so much. God bless. We will rent from you again.
Van ran well, hosts were easy to deal with, pick up and return at airport garage was pretty straightforward, good alternative to major car rental companies.
The van was in great shape. Ed was a very friendly and helpful host. I'd rent from Ed again.
The van was perfect - clean, reliable, and a great size for our 10 passenger trip to tour the North Shore. Highly recommended To
The van is in great condition and was perfect for our family of 8 with plenty of room for luggage. Very comfortable and would rent again. Many blessings to your business.
Fantastic experience from start to finish! The vehicle was clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described. Pickup and drop-off were smooth and convenient, and the host was friendly, responsive, and professional throughout the trip. I had zero issues and would absolutely rent from them again.

Kai’s vehicle was amazing and worked great for our vacation. Kai was very accommodating. We would definitely rent from him again if given the opportunity. .
Only issue was solved the first night. Pita was a great host and the van was perfect for our 9 person trip!
Best place to rent a van, if I ever need to rent a vehicle definitely going here. Highly recommend, they are flexible and will work with you.
The Van was great, held as much people i needed to tour the family & friends. Lots of space at the back storage for luggages. The 2 issue i have was the suspension squeaking at the rear of the Van and AC filter at the front might need to change. Overall it was a great rental for 2 days.
Very easy check in and out process. Vehicle was clean and perfect for my family trip around the island of Oahu. Would use the same booking group again.
We had such a smooth and hassle-free transaction. Very accommodating and flexible. We truly appreciate how easy and comfortable the whole experience was. Highly recommended! Great Experience Rental👌👌👌
This was such a great option for our group of nine people. Our two families with kids had plenty of room and while it’s a big van, it’s very easy and comfortable to get around in. We were especially happy with the communication with Liam - he was so easy to communicate with and answered our questions quickly. It was our first time using Turo but we found it easy with Liam. We highly recommend him!
Rent a van and explore Honolulu, HI
Things to do and places to see in Honolulu, HI
Hawaii is made up of four main islands: Oahu, the Big Island, Kauai, and Maui. But Oahu - where Honolulu is located - is by far the most visited. As the capital, Honolulu dazzles visitors with the glitz and glam of Waikiki Beach. But as locals will tell you, there's so much more to the city than this stretch of shoreline. Whether you're away from the crowds at Lanikai Beach near Kailua, surfing at Oahu's North Shore, or immersed in nature at Hoʻomaluhia Botanical Garden, Oahu is full of unforgettable experiences. If you're in town for about a week, here are the top three things to add to your itinerary.
Rent the perfect car
Waikiki Beach
At the heart of Honolulu is Waikiki Beach. Between the beach and high-end shopping, you could spend a week here and never get bored. When you're not taking a dip in the warm Pacific water, spend an afternoon shopping on Kalakaua Avenue at name-brand shops, boutique stores, or the open-air International Market Place. Adventure seekers can surf, kayak, or snorkel Turtle Canyon along the pristine coastline while gazing at the iconic views of Diamond Head. And when you're ready for a bite to eat, you'll find an array of eateries along a two-mile stretch of beach, from casual spots to elegant fine-dining restaurants.
Catch a sunrise or sunset at Diamond Head Crater
To get breathtaking sunrise or sunset photos of Oahu, hike the 0.8 trail to the top of Diamond Head, a crater that was formed 300,000 years ago. Although the hike is steep and strenuous, with rugged terrain and lots of stairs, the coastal views at the top are nothing short of breathtaking. Just remember to wear sturdy shoes and bring lots of water. And to avoid most of the crowds, try to book an online visit at 5:30 a.m. or one right before closing. An early morning climb may seem ridiculously early, but getting there while the rest of Honolulu is still stirring is an unforgettable experience.
Hoʻomaluhia Botanical Garden
For a peaceful retreat into a lush environment, spend some time in Hoʻomaluhia Botanical Garden, a 400-acre botanical sanctuary in windward Oahu. This haven offers family-friendly trails surrounded by tropical plants and the towering Koʻolau mountains. The views are simply mind-blowing. In addition to strolling around the 1.9-mile garden, visitors can spread out blankets, picnic by the lake, feed the koi, or simply take a breath and savor what nature has to offer. The best part about this botanical garden is that it's free.

Honolulu van rentals for any occasion
Group travel van rental in Honolulu
One of the best ways to keep everyone together when you're traveling as a group is to book a van. Instead of juggling multiple car rentals, searching for scattered parking lots, or struggling to coordinate meetup times, you'll all arrive and leave in one vehicle. A van can also ensure everyone's luggage gets picked up and dropped off at the airport together.
Moving van rental in Honolulu
Renting a cargo van on Turo prevents you from having to make multiple trips to move furniture or equipment across the island or even in the Honolulu area. Keep in mind that since many residential neighborhoods have tighter streets, you'll need to reserve a parking or loading spot with the landlord of the building. Also, look out for street-use rules so you don't get a ticket.
Outdoor adventure van rental in Honolulu
In town to surf, kayak, and bike? You'll probably want a spacious cargo van for all your stuff, especially if you're hauling your gear to the North Shore. For roof-mounted boards or kayaks, remember to strap them securely to ensure they don't slide off during your trip.

Rental van pickup locations throughout Honolulu
Get your vehicle delivered right to you or wherever you’re going in Honolulu, HI, including Honolulu, HI airport. Many hosts offer delivery to custom locations or popular points of interest, like airports, train stations, and hotels. Popular Honolulu, HI pickup locations include:
Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL)
If you're staying on Waikiki Beach, the HNL airport is just 25 minutes away, making the start of your trip stress-free and effortless. Heading to Oahu's North Shore instead? Plan for a 45-minute drive from the airport. After you land, skip the airport car rental counter and locate your airport van rental pickup spot on the Turo app. Once you have the keys in your hand, head straight to your hotel and dive right into your magical vacation.
The Honolulu Zoo and Surrounding Streets
While traffic in Honolulu and the Waikiki Beach area is generally pretty awful, the cars tend to thin out on the Southeastern end of the district, where the zoo is located. You can find free parking on Monsarrat Avenue, and parking in the zoo is $1.50 for 4 hours, making this a convenient pickup spot for your van rental. Parking by the Honolulu Zoo can be a great pickup location, too, if your hotel is located in the area.
Discovery Bay Center Parking Garage
For a central pickup location that's close to the beach, shopping, and restaurants, the Discovery Bay Center Parking Garage is a good choice. The rates are affordable compared to the surrounding hotel parking rates, and the garage is secure. And if your hotel is in the heart of Waikiki, it should be a short walk to your hotel. Once you've paid for your pass, you can also enter and exit the garage whenever you like.
Airport pickup made easy
Next time you fly, don’t wait in line and fill out forms — pick your car up at hundreds of popular airports.
Convenient pickup & return
Rather than hustling at the busy terminal curbside, take your time picking up the car at approved parking lots or garages. Check in, load up your luggage, and get comfortable with the car without a big rush.
No lines, no paperwork
Skip the rental car counter at hundreds of popular airports without waiting in line or filling out paperwork. Find and pick up the car with the app and hit the road in no time.
Free cancellation
Cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before your trip starts, unless you opt to receive a non-refundable trip discount when you book. Because life happens and it helps to be flexible when it does.

Top tips for renting a van in Honolulu
If you're planning on renting a van in Honolulu, pay close attention to the clearance height of parking garages as well as low-hanging branches. Vans typically require wider turns, which can be tricky when navigating narrower Honolulu streets, like the winding roads near Diamond Head. As you get closer to the beach areas, there are plenty of pedestrians and cyclists, so drive more slowly and stay alert. Here are some additional tips to keep in mind.
What is parking a van like in Honolulu?
Many parking garages in Honolulu tend to have clearances of 6.2 - 7 feet, which can be too low for vans. Try to find open lots, like at the Honolulu Zoo or at Ala Wai Harbor. Alternatively, you can find street parking in select areas. As you leave downtown Honolulu, you may find low-hanging branches in some residential areas, which can be a hazard for tall vans. Fortunately, most beach parks have open lots, making it easier to park your van.
How to choose the right type of van for your Honolulu trip
If you're traveling with a group and prefer not to rent multiple cars, pool your money and rent a passenger van. Passenger vans can seat 7-15 people, depending on the size, while minivans can seat about 7-8 passengers and are ideal for large families. Those who need a spacious interior to transport surfing equipment or furniture can rent a cargo van or a moving van. Just keep in mind that cargo vans can be challenging to park in residential neighborhoods.
Loading a cargo van
When loading your cargo van rental, start with the heavier items and spread the weight across the back evenly. This will prevent tipping, especially when you're making turns. Secure the items with straps or cords to prevent them from shifting. Leave space to access items you may need during your trip, or pack them at the back of the van for easy access. Finally, check the maximum load capacity of the van to ensure you don't overpack the van and damage the brakes or suspension.
Gas stations and EV chargers in Honolulu
When it's time to fuel up, you'll find plenty of gas stations in Honolulu, such as Texaco, Shell, or Aloha Gas. Remember that many vans take diesel rather than regular gas, so check this detail before booking your rental. Also, fuel prices are higher than in most cities on the mainland only because Hawaii must ship fuel in. Remember to factor these prices into your budget.
EV drivers have plenty of choices, too. They can charge their vans at the Hawaiian Electric Charging Station off Highway 1 and several ChargePoint Charging Stations. Make sure to check your van's charging compatibility, though, before using a public charger.

Then enter the dates you'll need the vehicles, and designate a pickup and return spot.
