August rental car price drop

[alohamom]

Aloha! For anyone heading to Aulani in August you may want to re-check your car rental prices. I just happened to look and my car rental has dropped from 500 to 400 for two full weeks. Originally we had booked a small SUV and it was going to be 600 but then last weekend we rebooked an intermediate which was 500. Today I see the price has come down even more for the same car. Though I would share so that you can check and see if your price can be adjusted as well

Another great place to rent a car for a good price is TURO. We rented a Mitsubishi from James for 29.00 per day.

Check it out, it is renting cars from personal people.

Are you renting from the airport or Aulani itself?

Wow that is ridiculous. No other disney hotel charges anything for its guests but I guess Hawaii is a little different.

 

[alohamom]

Oh I know! The hotels in Waikiki all charge between 25-40 depending on location. I guess it is because of the lack of space there, similar to big cities like NYC. To be fair, the other Ko Olina resorts like the Marriott and new Four Season charge the same for parking.
