The wife lived on Oahu for 15 years and her son and grandson still do so we hop over to see them regularly too. Since 2018 when I was told on a flight to check you out I don't think I've rented a car in KOA or HNL any other way and it's been dozens of rentals. Now I found Discount USA too so we'll use that app too. Anyway.... I just wanted to pass on how much we use your service and how pleased we are with the ease of shopping all rental companies in your website and app. I wouldn't shop any other way although I keep trying directly and bookings and car rental. Com and Costco but guess what? You guys are consistently the best so I figured I better pass that info on to you Thanks & Mahalo..... happy dancer |

It didn't have the fuel efficiency if a compact car and it was much larger than I expected. The window visibility was lacking so I returned it.

Well, I can't complain too much since I only paid $40/ day but it wasn't fuel efficient.

When my car rental fell through with another large rental company, Budget, due to a shortage when I showed up for my reservation with terrible customer service, I was in a pickle and called around other large rental companies that also had shortages or very expensive options. When I came across Akamai, I called and they not only had cars available, they were reasonably priced, and the costumer service was outstanding. I couldn't figure out how to get my phone connected to the navigation system after awhile and Jon helped me and called someone else to also get extra help and got me all setup. Reservation, pick up, and drop off was seamless and they offered to let me park or overnight if needed. The car was clean, newer, and in great shape. I would highly recommend! Please support this local business that offers fantastic customer service and clean comfortable cars. The next time I'm in Oahu I know who I'll be using. Thank you, Jon, and Akamai Rentals!

Wow, truly a breath of fresh air in the car rental business. Hands down one of the best I've…read moreexperienced. I have traveled a lot for work/pleasure and know how to navigate rental car agencies pretty well. Every once in a while they get one over me, especially recent with the electric vehicle push. I also almost always avoid off airport rentals as a rule. Given the price and the glowing reviews I thought I would give Lucky Owl a shot. I'm very glad I did. The pickup process was super easy, just walked across the street from the southwest baggage claim where the pickup spot #4 was designated. Made the call and they were there rather quick. At the counter there was no sales push or tactics, they just verified my ID and CC then handed me the keys. Their rules were clearly laid out next to the window. They took photos of the cars condition and encouraged me to do the same. I also received the exact car stated on my reservation. No issues with the car for the 2 weeks we were there. Someone mentioned you blend in with their cars as a local, I don't know how but it did feel that way, hahaha. I especially liked the rubber floor mats which made cleaning easy. My one recommendation would be a trunk/hatch rubber mat. I know they are much harder to come by, but it would help with sandy beach gear. Speaking of, they even offer to rent beach gear! My airbnb came with some, but its great to know for next time. Drop off was just as easy as pickup. Their rental terms mention excess sand has a fee and there is a Texaco close to their location with vacuums. I wasn't sure if we had reached the "excess" level but why not treat the car with respect and clean up after yourself since Lucky Owl treated us well. When I got back they took a couple photos of the condition just like the pickup and had the shuttle ready to take me to the airport. No question I will be renting from here again next time in Oahu! They also have some friendly cats to greet you.

We had a mishap with the key fob not working while we were at the beach on the east side of the…read moreisland. When we realized it wasn't working, we immediately opened up the fob and found old looking corrosion inside around the battery area. We put a new battery in it and left it open to dry out (if moisture had gotten in it). After troubleshooting to no avail, I called the company and they sent someone out charging a $75 "roadside assistance fee" where a representative brought out a spare key fob. Unfortunately, the replacement fob did not start the car (or even unlock/lock the car). The representative was friendly, but not knowledgeable on other troubleshooting steps to get us back on the road. With the replacement fob taken apart (to swap/replace the battery) the original fob eventually started the car. We even tested it further by turning off and on the car a few times to make sure the old fob was working again. We then drove the vehicle to our next destination, and when we went to leave the car wouldn't start again... we made the most of it and had dinner while further drying out the original fob to see if that would help. In the meantime the company sent a replacement vehicle (at no additional charge). When the rep went to start the original car, it stated right away. The following day, I received a voicemail to go over the additional replacement fob and roadside assistance charges. The voicemail said to reference the email and/or call back for questions. I never received the email after 10 minutes of checking, and then I got a large credit card notification; $350 for the damaged key and $75 for the roadside assistance. I didn't appreciate being charged without being talked to first. When I immediately called back to politely ask some clarifying questions, the person on the phone was very rude and raised his voice to me and my wife. Given that the original fob appeared to have prior water damage and the fact that it did start the car (after drying out, replacing the battery) it was disappointing to be charged $425 for something that may, or may not, have been our fault. And to then be yelled at for asking questions. At the end of the day, the whole ordeal cost us valuable vacation time, added stress, and drastically altered our plans. The car rental itself was affordable but the first car we ended up with was older and a little dingy.

We had an upgrade and got a sedan/coup upon pick up. I was able to change the drop off location, since I was staying in Waikiki; and it was more convenient to drop off near the hotel.

Returning the car was a little confusing since I did not know where the office inside the Marriott was. I was able to ask the concierge where the drop off box was since they were closed on the weekend. Overall great experience from start to finish from booking and returning the car rental.

As a previous Budget customer, I'm sorry to say that I won't be returning for my Oahu rental car…read moreneeds. Over the years, I've rented from Budget several times and always found them to be economical, efficient, and easy to work with. Unfortunately, my last few experiences have shown a noticeable decline. The lines have gotten longer and longer, which initially led me to start exploring other rental companies. For this trip, I ended up shopping based on price and was surprised to find Budget's rates were no longer significantly cheaper than the competition. I reserved a Toyota Camry or similar, only to be offered a Nissan Maxima or Chevy Malibu upon arrival. When I asked about the Camry, the agent told me that Budget doesn't carry Toyota vehicles. That response left me confused--if that's the case, why are Toyota models featured on the website? I understand that specific vehicles aren't guaranteed, but advertising vehicles you don't even carry seems misleading. The bigger disappointment was the condition of the car. While it looked clean from the outside, the interior told a different story. There was trash under the seats, mud in the trunk, and dust across the dashboard. It was obvious that little to no attention had been given to cleaning the inside of the vehicle before it was rented out. Everyone can have an off day, but this experience felt more like a lack of pride in the product being delivered to customers. With pricing now comparable to other rental agencies and service quality declining, I'll be taking my business elsewhere on future visits to Oahu.

When you arrive to the airport, you'll have to hop on a shuttle that will take you to the rental car center. Once we got there, we got in line to check-in for our car. Once you are checked in, they'll give you a spot number which has your car. This line moved pretty quick. However when we got to our car, we noticed that the seats wouldn't fold down, which was an issue for us because we had our golf clubs and needed the extra room. We went back to service counter near where the cars were and they were able to switch us into a bigger Jeep at no extra cost. It took a little bit of time as there were a lot of people in line here but it was well worth the wait. The new 2026 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon was such a nice drive and was easy to navigate while driving. Definitely a car worth getting especially if you have some bigger pieces of luggage. Drop off was a breeze and everything went as smooth as one could want for a car rental. I wouldn't hesitate renting from Budget again.

My low mileage piece of crap Dodge Grand Caravan crapped out on me again, as motor oil started to leak out of the rear main seal. For work, I'm basically on the road the whole day, so anytime my company vehicle goes into the shop, automatically we are instructed to take out a rental. Normally, I've been going to the ilikai hotel to take out a rental, but I've had numerous issues with the service that I got from that rental car company, so luckily for me, I found Enterprise Rent-A-Car just a block away from the Ala Moana Shopping Center. Not only is this rental car much closer to the Cutter Dodge dealership, but the service was OUTSTANDING!!!! Upon walking into the rental car agency, the friendly clerk greeted me & processed my rental within 5 minutes. I was totally stunned at how efficient she did this, and upon having me sign a few electronic papers, she then told me to go into an elevator & head up to the "L' floor of the garage. Upon heading up to the "L" floor (or top floor of the garage), another clerk had my vehicle ready, and upon doing a quick look around the vehicle, I just jumped in, and took off. Easy peasy my friends!!! When I returned the rental today, I didn't even need to go into the Enterprise office, as the clerk who processed my eental vehicle return in the garage, did all of the closing of the tab. To top it off, the staff even gave me a ride back to the Cutter Dodge dealership! There's something to be said of great service.........that's how you keep loyal customers! The other rental car business at the ilikai hotel could learn a thing or two about what great service is!

He came out of nowhere to tell me, aggressively, why they need to check an id that had been scanned multiple times previously. I don't understand what even happened! Because I was confused and upset about being wrongfully attacked, I asked him to clarify his accusation. He escalated by repeatedly telling me, "you can't even admit that you said it" and I said, yes, because I don't ! He would not engage with me or my husband in coming to a meaningful understanding. My husband and two teenage children both said they did not hear me say this and came to my defense. He would not admit he could have misheard. He shut me down and repeated that I was denying it and that I couldn't admit that I "cursed" at his employee. He ended with sarcastically saying, "why don't you leave and enjoy your vacation." I don't say the word crap, because it's a crap curse word. I use better, more adult curse words. If I was frustrated, the room would know. What manager is trained to escalate? This person should not be in a front facing position. I'm kinda floored that he chooses to be in customer service, because if he is starting g a fight with a not that annoyed middle aged lady, how does he handle an enraged man? I doubt he would have had this interaction with a man. I wasn't even mad, it came out of nowhere I think he must have heard my kids or another customer say something 'cause it's not what happened and my whole family was witness. I'm sure everything is recorded - check the footage. You're an angry man, Andrew, shame on you. Sixt has been made aware of the situation and I do really hope they watch the security footage. Also, Andrew, crap isn't considered a curse word by any means (even though I didn't even say that!) Get your crap together - I can say that even on yelp and it's not considered offensive. Unless you don't have your crap together and then yes, you should take offense.
