KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Lanai City
- Lanai City car rentals are an easy and convenient way to explore not only Lanai City but also the rest of the small Hawaiian island of Lanai. There is no public transport available on the island unless you are staying in a hotel that offers a shuttle to popular destinations such as different beaches, so car rentals will be the most flexible way for you to travel if you plan on driving car rentals in Lanai City to other locations around the island, such as Shipwreck Beach or the Manele Golf Course.
- Travelers landing at Lanai Airport (LNY) in Lanai City will be glad to know that picking up Lanai City car rentals is easy at LNY. Lanai City Service Inc. is the only car rental firm at the airport and their desk is located directly in the arrivals area, so there is no need for ground transport to a different location. The airport is also located just 3 miles from downtown Lanai City, so if you would prefer to choose from a wider range of agencies, you can take a taxi into town and pick up your car rentals in Lanai City from there.
- Lanai City and the surrounding areas are quite rugged, and the terrain can be rough. In addition, only 30 miles of roads on the entire island are paved, so you will likely be driving on a lot of dirt roads, especially outside the city center. Drive on the right-hand side of the road in car rentals in Lanai City and beware of hazards such as rocks and wildlife. There are also no traffic lights on the island of Lanai, so be aware of stop signs and pedestrians who have the right of way.
- Lanai City, like any other city, experiences morning and evening rush hours. The morning rush typically occurs between 8 am and 10 am, while the evening rush is between 4 pm and 6 pm. It may also be particularly difficult to drive on Lanai’s many unpaved roads during or after significant rainfall, so always pay attention to the weather conditions in Lanai City before getting out on the road.
- Book your car hire in Lanai City at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Economy car hire in Lanai City are around -178% cheaper than other car types, on average

What type of car is recommended for driving in Lanai City?
Because of the many dirt roads and potential hazards that come along with these, it is a good idea to rent a vehicle with 4-wheel drive in Lanai City. This will make it easier to navigate tricky landscapes and terrain. It may also be a good idea to rent an SUV or pickup truck, as these not only typically have 4-wheel drive, but they also are perfect to carry camping or other outdoor equipment to your destination.
What’s the speed limit in Lanai City?
Lanai City is super small, and the slow citywide speed limit reflects this. The maximum speed limit throughout the city is 20 mph. In residential areas outside the city, the speed limit is 25 mph. On Lanai’s rural highways, the speed limit can reach a maximum of 50 mph. This slower speed limit can create a slow traffic flow, so it is important to drive with awareness and patience in Lanai City car rentals.
Where are the best places to park in Lanai City?
Parking in Lanai City is not difficult to find, but there are very few free parking spaces available. If you are staying at a hotel, your hotel may offer free parking to guests. In the city, some natural attractions and monuments have their own parking lots that are often free. Otherwise, there are public parking lots and garages located within and just outside the city where you can leave your Lanai City car rentals and walk to your destination. The city is small and mostly walkable, so this should not pose a problem. The parking lots in the downtown area of Lanai City typically charge between $5 and $10 per day.

Pros:
Staff onsite was super friendly at the 30 Halawai locationCons:
Little confusing when booking online. Started with a Westin location, they told me the only office that had a Jeep was the “airport” location, which turned out to be right across the street from my hotel. They did phone the location and let them know I was coming. And, my car was not there, they went and got it and I was on my way10.0 Wonderful
