Kapolei is Oahu's second city, and its residents shouldn't have to drive to the airport to rent a car. Our yard is about 15 minutes away in Ewa Beach, and the few rental options on this side of the island are mostly geared to tourists in the resort areas. We're built for local residents and military (visitors welcome too).
Why Kapolei renters choose Baba
- We're already in your neighborhood. Kapolei to our Ewa Beach yard is roughly 5 miles, about 15 minutes down Fort Weaver Road, traffic depending. No trip to Honolulu Airport, no shuttle bus, no airport concession fees.
- Car in the shop? Kapolei's body shops and dealers keep cars for weeks. A weekly or monthly Versa costs a fraction of a chain's daily rate, and if your insurance authorizes you a rental car, we can provide a final invoice so you can claim it with your insurance. See our car-in-the-shop rentals.
- Visiting family staying in Ko Olina or Makakilo? A second car for a week or two, without the resort-rate markup.
- New to the area? Many of our monthly customers are families moving into Ewa Gentry, Hoopili, and Kapolei while their own car is in transit.
What you get
- A 2007-2012 Nissan Versa sedan or hatchback. 90+ in the fleet, every one inspected, detailed, and running ice-cold A/C. We run one model on purpose: after years of maintaining nothing but Versas, we know this car inside and out. No rental, new or old, can be guaranteed issue free, but our maintenance routine keeps these cars pretty reliable, and if something does come up, we know exactly how to handle it. See the fleet and our honest "these are older cars" notes.
- Monthly and weekly rates that change with the season (request a quote for your dates), with age-tiered pricing for 18-20, 21-24, and 25+ instead of a daily young-driver surcharge.
- 50 miles per day, up to 1,500 miles in a month. More than enough for the island. The limit is there because our cars can't be used for rideshare or delivery services (DoorDash, Uber Eats, etc.).
- Easy extensions by phone, text, or email if your plans change, subject to availability during peak seasons.
How renting from Baba works
- Request a quote online (or call). Tell us your dates and your age bracket: 18-20, 21-24, or 25+.
- Provide your insurance documents. Personal auto insurance with collision and a deductible of $1,000 or less is accepted with no extra fee; otherwise our CDW is $15.70/day. If your credit card includes rental car coverage (see our non exhaustive list), you only need to submit a valid insurance card with your name on it. Digital copies accepted.
- Place your deposit with a debit or credit card in the renter's name and save your reservation number. A credit card is not required. No cash.
- Pick up at our Ewa Beach yard (5001 Iroquois Ave, inside the American Veterans (AMVETS) building, our partners) at your appointment time. Pickups and drop-offs run 9am to 7pm daily, with the last pickup at 6:30pm. The earlier the pickup the better: rush hour traffic usually runs from about 3pm to 6pm.
- Same day pickups? We can accommodate them as long as we still have vehicles available, but we recommend booking in advance.
