Insurance is an essential part of any car hire in Kona. Beware of cheaper prices for car rental in Kona - they may not cover you for an accident.
All of the discount Kona self drive prices here include insurance, with no hidden extras to pay in Kona. Our rates for car hire in Kona have the following protection included:
Loss Damage Waiver (LDW)
LDW is not insurance, it's a supplement you pay so the Kona car rental company won't claim against you if your Kona hire car is stolen or damaged during your visit to Kona.
Supplemental Liability Insurance (SLI)
This increases third party liability insurance on your Kona car hire package to $1 million. Some Kona rental packages don't include SLI. Without paying in advance, the Kona car rental office charge $14.99 per day!
Under or Uninsured Motorist Protection (UMP)
Because it isn't compulsory to have insurance to drive in the USA, the other party mightn't have cover if you have an accident in Kona. UMP provides up to $1 million against injuries caused by drivers in Kona without insurance. If you paid UMP in Kona it would cost £5.99.
Emergency Assistance
All of our rental packages in Kona include full breakdown assistance. If your hire car from Kona breaks down, you can call a Kona recovery company to get you back on road.
Deposit
When you collect your rental car in Kona, you must provide a credit card as deposit. In Kona, no money gets charged - details are held as security in case the vehicle is damaged during your Kona fly-drive. Please note: cash is not acceptable as deposit for Kona car hire.
