Baba Rentals' monthly rate for travel nurses
Our monthly rate varies depending on the season — quotes are inclusive of all Hawaii taxes, full coverage insurance (via your personal auto policy), and ice-cold A/C for those post-shift drives home. Rates vary in high peak seasons (summer, holidays, major events) — use our homepage quote tool for exact pricing on your dates.

Why travel nurses love renting from us
- Flexible contract terms — 13 weeks isn't exactly 3 months. We'll bill you the exact days you need, not a padded package.
- Extension-friendly — contract extended? Just give us a call.
- Debit card accepted — you don't need to tie up a credit limit for 3 months.
- Personal insurance accepted — skip the CDW. Your mainland auto policy typically covers rentals.
- 1,500-mile monthly cap — plenty for commuting plus weekend island exploring (Oahu is only ~112 miles across).
- Good gas mileage — Versas average 28+ MPG combined. Hawaii gas is expensive; this matters.
- Easy parking — tight hospital lots and garage decks appreciate a small car.
We cover your Uber to work if something goes wrong on our end
You're a travel nurse. Missing a shift isn't just inconvenient — it's a contract issue. If something happens with the rental car that's our responsibility (a maintenance issue we couldn't predict, a mechanical problem that keeps you from driving, etc.), we will reimburse your Uber or Lyft ride to the hospital to make your shift. Just save the receipt and send it over. Things that qualify are items that fall within our purview — maintenance-related breakdowns, not customer-caused issues (fender-benders, flat from running over a curb, etc.).
We hold ourselves to that standard because our travel-nurse customers depend on reliable transportation to keep their contracts intact. It's one of the reasons we've maintained 500+ 5-star reviews and long partnerships with agencies like TotalMed and Prolink.
Itemized invoices — your rental is a tax-deductible expense
For traveling healthcare professionals on 1099 contracts (and some W-2 travel-nurse arrangements), transportation costs tied to a temporary work assignment away from your tax home are often tax-deductible business expenses. We provide clean, itemized invoices suitable for your CPA or your tax-prep software — showing the rental period, daily/weekly/monthly rate, Hawaii GE tax, and total. Just ask for one at pickup or anytime during your rental and we'll email it over.
Tips from travel nurses who've rented from us
- Book a month at a time and extend — locks in the monthly rate even if your contract ends early
- Bring your personal insurance declarations page — saves you $15/day CDW fee
- Gas up at the Texaco on Fort Weaver Rd near our yard before returning — our return terms require Ewa Beach 96706 gas stations
