Normally, to rent a car in Keauhou you must be at least 21—the same as it is across the rest of the USA. However, you might need to pay a surcharge if you're under 25. Be sure to read over the rental agreement to determine what the total will be before you book your car.

Do I need insurance to rent a car in Keauhou?

When driving in Keauhou or the rest of the U.S.A., you'll need insurance. Almost every supplier requires that you show proof of insurance before you pick up your vehicle.

Otherwise, as a United States citizen, you can also purchase Collision Damage Coverage with CarRentals.com at checkout.

The major credit cards (American Express, Visa, MasterCard, and Discover) will generally cover your car rental. But many of them have restrictions, such as not covering larger vehicles like trucks or SUVs.

We usually advise that customers choose the full-to-full policy. This policy is the most straightforward, and you simply top off the tank before you bring it back.

Is it worth getting unlimited miles?

Unlimited mileage is a good option for anyone who don't want to worry about watching the odometer their whole trip. Just make sure that your policy really provides unlimited miles. Check the fine print before you book.

Know before you go

Make sure you go over a few things before you leave the car rental lot on your Keauhou adventure. You should take time to:

• Walk around the vehicle and determine if there is any dents or scratches. If you notice any, mark it down on the paperwork
• Check the trunk to determine if the spare is inflated and the necessary tools to change it are there
• Familiarize yourself with the car. Adjust the mirrors and seats, and note how to turn on the lights and windshield wipers
• Get comfortable working the entertainment and GPS (if available). It's best to limit any unnecessary distractions when you are navigating a new area
