Few things can be compared to driving a convertible with the sun on your skin and the wind in your hair. With the roof folded down, you get to take in your surroundings as you zip down a winding road. Convertibles put the fun in vacation, and with the top down, you have a 360-degree view of the surrounding scenery. Kailua-Kona is the land of sunny weather and sandy beaches, making convertibles a perfect fit.
Renting a car in Hawaii can be costly. It gets more expensive when renting a Kailua-Kona convertible car rental because of the type of car. However, the price is always influenced by the time of year and the place you're renting from. Always try booking your convertible rental car early to get a better rate as well.
Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, tends to be hilly and filled with people. Hence, not only does your car's speed matter, but the surrounding cars also need to be kept in mind when driving in Kailua-Kona. A convertible allows complete visibility. Regardless, stick to the speed limit to avoid accidents and speeding tickets, which are expensive in this area. The convertible rental company can also be fined about $2,000 per mile over the limit.
It's best to avoid driving a rented convertible during winter. The weather tends to be cold, dry, and even dusty, which is hardly enjoyable. In addition, of course, the dust tends to cling to cars, making it very difficult to clean without scraping the paintwork. The weather can also change from sunny to a light rain shower. So, if you like keeping the car rooftop down, watch out for that as well.
Book your convertible car hire in Kailua-Kona at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
October is typically the cheapest month to hire a convertible car in Kailua-Kona, with prices around $58 per day. The most expensive month is December, with average prices of $99 per day.

Which are the safest areas to park a rented convertible in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii?

We rented 2 cars for our group and one of the cars was incorrect. We ordered a “Chevrolet Suburban or similar” and got a minivan. Mistakes happen but the man working the pick up counter at the airport in Kona was the rudest customer service person I have ever dealt with. It was appalling. I wouldn’t rent through Hertz again because of this person.

Pros:

Very easy pick up and return.

Cons:

The key fob to our Jeep ran out of batteries on the 2nd day. As a result, had to get the car towed and exchange the car. While that process was fairly smooth, it effectively blew the entire morning. At the counter, the agent told me that the Jeep's key batteries commonly run out after 4 months. He also told us the trick on how to get the Jeep started again. Had we known, it would have saved the hassle of the tow.

I wish they'd had the car I'd reserved ready. Originally they tried pushing a crossover on me and even the car I got was not the one I reserved. Given how expensive gas is in Hawaii, I reserved a compact on purpose, and was disappointed to not receive one.
