If you come to Hawaii on vacation you just might wind up surfing the best waves of your life on a rented surfboard instead of your magic board from home. If that turns out to be the case on Maui then make sure you get your board rental and any other surf supplies you left at home from 808 Boards! Yes, these guys have great equipment instead of the old beaters that most shops will rent you. And, their prices are fair. But most importantly they are stoked surfers themselves and embody the Aloha spirit. They understand that the waves can get really big here and there is always the chance that through no fault of you own, their boards may still take a bit of a beating. But instead of seeing that as a "money making opportunity" these guys are completely understanding and reasonable about the damage costs. To pay that kindness back, just treat their boards with the same care you treat you own. That and being giving in the water instead of grabbing for every wave will result in a ton of authentic Aloha coming right back at ya! read more

This is actually the best deal on the island. And it's my fourth time renting from them! $45 per every 24 hours for a quality board, and they deliver right to wherever you are staying! We actually checked out a place in Lahaina since we were shopping and thought we could paddle-surf a bit, and they charged $40 for two hours on a monstrosity that was beat up. Didn't take us long to call 808 again Excellent service, quality product. Much better boards than anywhere I've seen on the island. Thanks Lucho! read more

These guys are extremely accommodating and friendly. We came back to this shop twice during our visit to Maui as they are seriously the best! We were staying an hour away and were not going to be able to make our turn in time - they were super laid back and simply gave us an extra hour - no charge. I highly recommend this company! read more

The sales staff are incredible! So helpful and knowledgable and nice. We didn't get back to the shop on time before they closed and they didn't charge us for the extra time. The merchandise selection is awesome too! Highly recommend read more

These guys definitely got aloha. Our first time in Maui and this shop gave us amazing service.

We always go here when renting gear during our visits to Maui. The staff/owners are super friendly and fair, they went above and beyond to get us the surfboards we needed during our two week stay. We highly recommend them! read more

Stopped in for a peak and walked out with lots of great gear!! Both employees were amazing with my son and allowed him to play and touch and even stand on a few boards!! It definitely made his day! read more

Good people. Good gear. Hate that yelp makes you write words to fill white space. Yelp fears white space. Dobre vetci. Dobre ľudí. read more

These guys know their stuff. Rented SUP paddleboard for the day. I was a first timer and Jeff gave me great instructions on balance, positioning and using the paddles properly. Who knew there is a front and back side to the paddle! Jeff gave me tips where to enter the bay, how to fall and get back up easily. Rates were very reasonable and they deliver. Highly Recommend these guys...Super chill guys with excellent knowledge about all water sports and safety. read more

Booked 4 surf lessons with them for our kids with the goal of getting private lessons with an instructor. The lessons were booked way in advance (more than a month). They outsourced to someone else, who outsourced to someone else. The result was an inconsistent experience: different instructors, different teaching style, different times. The lack of communication and the sudden changes were uncalled for. read more

We had a great time doing a family surf lesson. We had two surf coaches, DJ and his co-worker. They were on-time at the meeting spot and called us to make sure we were on our way. Once we got to the beach they had the boards ready, swim shoes and rash guards for us to wear. They were both so nice, fun and easy to talk to. We were riding beginner waves so they spent a lot of time coaching us on the best waves to catch and giving us an extra push so we caught every wave. It was a great experience. read more

Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. From the owners to the staff. From pick up to drop off. Great experience overall. Spoke to Dallas a few days before arriving. We discussed options for a SUP and for a longboard. Upon arriving at the shop, boards were ready to go as described. They helped with putting the boards on my car and I was off. The quality of the boards was outstanding. Can't wait to come back again. Thank you again Dallas and Crystal for providing a great place to rental quality gear. Keep up the great work! read more

Always an easy process to rent For I'm 808. They picked up and delivered the boards to our hotel. Helped us with places to go paddle (and eat too). Mahalo read more

This place is amazing! I was here on vacation looking for shops to get surfboards from when everyone was sold out and luckily they had it.The staff here was great and helped us get a board, also recommended us for everything we should have to get the best experience. They also have a service to drop off the boards and pick them up which is very useful when you can't get a car. This place was by far one my best experiences! They also had amazing rates. Definitely will come back to them next time I visit! read more

Great Place, amazing board. I've been surfing for 20+ years now and his was the first time I did not have my boards with me! 808 BOARDS SAVED ME!! I told them my size and surf style and they provided me with a brand new board! Very professional service, friendly and they went the extra mile, literally! I had no way to pick up the board and they dropped the board at my place. Dude, if that is not great customer service, then I don't know what is! Malaho to my new friend Lucho!! Thanks bro! read more

Best place to rent a board. We received great service both for the rental and return. We will definitely be back! Aloha!

I HIGHLY recommend. I wanted to rent some higher-end SUP-Surf equipment and 808 hooked me up with a KILLER board and paddle for a full day for less than what a resort would charge for an hour on a beat-up foam log. 10/10 for equipment; 10/10 for convenience; 10/10 for friendliness/Aloha. I will rent here again when I come back to Maui. read more

Great guys, Great service and Great boards. I had so much fun on a skim board from 808 Boards. First Timer on skim board and had a blast. I rented the board for a week and skim boarded each day in paradise. Shout out to Jeff at 808 skim board for living Aloha and waxing my skim board read more

Business recently moved from Napili to strip mall with Times supermarket. I reserved two stand up paddle boards, and the guy who helped us [Dallas] lacked basic safety training and in dire need of Aloha spirit. As he was securing the boards on our vehicle, he launched the heavy metal buckle of the ratchet strap over the car and missed my eye by a few inches, and I called out he almost hit me, and then he takes the other strap and tells my son to get in the car, but he does it again, with the metal buckle over the car top, and the buckle swings inside the open car door and misses my son's head by an inch as well. Was completely unapologetic like it wasn't a big deal and that was the most upsetting part of the experience, even after I told him I was almost hit the first time. All the other times we rented boards, they always throw the fabric end of the tether over the car so people don't get injured. 808 Board management: You can do much better than this! read more

Best surf board rental in west side Maui!! They'll get you setup with all the right equipment, strap in your boards for you, and allow you to swap out boards. Friendly and amazing people highly recommend for your next surfing trip. Aloha and mahalo. read more

Brian was awesome! Such an easy way to get your board right to your hotel. I recommend 808 boards to all that are coming to Maui. We definitely will be calling again when we come back. read more

Staff was very accommodating, they let us switch out boards for sizes that fit us without any hassle, also gave us a discount for a board we weren't using for the whole week. The boards were in great condition and very well taken care of, I highly recommend using 808 boards for rentals! read more

$45 plus free delivery for a 24 hour paddle board rental? Yes please. Every part of our experience with 808 boards was easy and great. Delivery and pickup were exactly on time and the delivery guy was super friendly and helpful. If only they could make us better paddle boarders! read more

I went on a stacation with my wife and kids. We are from Oahu. I hhave always wanted to surf Honolua and got the green light to go one morning.

Sweet epoxy longboard rental for my stay in Kaanapali. Great price. Way better than the overpriced beaters they try to sell you by the Westin hotels.. read more

Great experience! Very helpful in sending us to a good beach for paddle boarding. Helped us tie down the boards to our mini van and taught our teenagers how to do it for the drive back. Very simple, fast rental! I highly recommend 808 Boards! read more

Rented a 9'6" Jimmy Lewis longboard for three days. Had an excellent time surfing knee-chest high waves at a local point. The rental process was quick and easy. Rental fee included roof racks. read more

We rented SUP boards for 24 hrs. We ended up picking them up and fitting them in our jeep. It was so easy and such a great experience to be able to explore the ocean while watching whales breach in the near distance. The employees were also super helpful in recommending an easy access point to get into the water. Definitely a must do! read more

I've rented from Dallas @ 808 since paddle boards showed up on the water. He updates his equipment, provides outstanding service, and always remembers his customers from year to year.. Good, solid company to give your business to. Thank you 808 read more

Solid, well maintained board selection. I was able to describe my surf experience over the phone and have them hold a board for me to pick up. They do deliver but I like to see and feel a board before I ride it. For $30/day I got a premium performance longboard, leash, wax, and softracks for my car. Equipment wise, this is the place to go. I took away one star because they missed the mark on friendliness. I tried to engage in conversation with the guys who helped me about local breaks and just got grumbles from the first guy about how this side of the island had the best surfing. Great, care to elaborate?? The second guy, was slightly more friendly and said I could change the board out when I liked to accommodate different breaks and suggested I try s turns which I was already planning or Honolua bay. In general surf shops are a let down when it comes to serving women surfers so I never get my hopes up. Just telling it like it is. At least they didn't ask me if the board was for my husband. Yeah, that's happened before. read more

Rented a board here during my stay in Maui and everyone at 808 was super friendly and helpful. they will even let you swap boards out during your stay if you want to try something different. Highly recommend coming here if you need to rent anything from a standard shortboard to Longboard or foamie. read more

Skip the expensive board rental places on the beach and call these guys. We have been using them for years. Just give them a call and they will bring the boards to you. Last visit to Maui I rented 2 soft top surfboards and a SUP. I wasn't super happy with the first board they brought me so I gave them a call and within an hour they were back and traded out the board. The have outstanding customer service and a variety of boards. These guys never disappoint. read more

First class outfit. Called them at 10 AM and by 11 we had two SUP dropped off at our condo in Kahana. Great boards, they told us just to tell them where we ended up and they would come get the boards. After a four mile SUP down the coast, I called, they picked up the boards. So easy and fun. read more

*Update 1 week later. Manager reached out on yelp to offer me a discount on buying another wetsuit but still wouldn't swap the one I purchased. So they wanted me to spend more money at their shop... Upgrading from 2 stars to 3 because the owner proactively reached out, though I'm still dissatisfied. Original Review: Asked for help selecting a wet suit shirt to keep me warm snorkeling/surfing. Matt at the counter said he didn't know much about the $90 one I selected. I went to the counter with large and asked if this was good he said sure. I came back an hour later and asked to change it for a medium because it was too big. He said no because it got wet. That seems reasonable if they had given me any guidance in buying it but to not swap it after I clearly asked him about sizing was a big disappointment. Buy with caution. That said they had a good selection, reasonable prices, and gave me a slight discount because I'm a local. read more

Great great great! Friendly excellent service. Excellent variety of boards, convenient soft rack, fantastic delivery and pickup!

Huge shoutout to Mitchell at 808! We rented a paddleboard to be delivered to our hotel in Napili. He showed up on time, had the board, but cautioned us that because of the windy conditions and that we wanted our kids to use it, we may be better off saving it for another day. Our safety was his first concern vs taking our money. We opted to forego the paddleboard and he gave us a boogie board for the kids to use. Truly appreciated his honesty and concern for our family. Next time.... read more

I've been coming here for years on my Maui vacations at Napili. This past week my brother rented a SUP and I rented a really fun surfboard. Great service, really good equipment, and good people work here. If you want nice equipment for fair prices and are in this area, just come here. read more

Great service! Andy did an incredible job treating my wife and I with care. Not only were we both able to get up and really start to figure out surfing on our own, he truly extended to aloha spirit to us. read more
