While browsing the web to find a rental car for a trip to Hawaii’s Big Island, I came across Summit Pacific’s Hawaii car rental page. I am familiar with Summit Pacific, but I knew them as a Kauai vacation rental company. I was not aware they also provided Hawaii car rentals, nor did I know you could get a car so inexpensively.
At the time I’m writing this post, Summit is offering automobile rentals for as low as $27/day. The lowest rate I could find on other travel agency website, including Expedia and Travelocity was $40/day. That’s a huge difference.
Another great thing is that Summit offered a free upgrade to the next level car. This means I wasn’t stuck driving a compact car, but I still got to pay the compact rate.
To be honest, because the rate was so low and I was booking last minute, I was a little weary that my reservation was going to get lost in cyberspace. But all happened as expected, my experience was just like booking through any big brand company. I showed up at the rental car agency and they had my car waiting for me.
