"Pearl" was ALOHA-AWESOME to use during our 5 day stay in Hawaii!! She was our hotel and rental car all-in-one. :)
Check in and check out was super smooth. Rebecca was consistently a great communicator, which totally helped alleviate any anxiety and made us feel like we had great support for any issue we might have. The minivan was easy to drive, great on gas mileage, and looked like a normal vehicle in places where we didn't want to be conspicuous. The interior was thoughtfully designed, from the blackout curtains with magnets to the vinyl flooring and coir door-matted step-sides to the available storage under the bed and the kitchenette in the back cargo space. There was even a rechargeable light bar with adjustable brightness that came in handy not only in the van but wherever we needed it and a roof mounted water tank shower feature for rinsing off anything right there at the van instead of down the beach or at a distant bathroom. We appreciated the small but considerate amenities that were included such as a few local beverages in the fridge, hand sanitizer, and flushable wipes. We didn't rent any additional recreational gear that was available. We also didn't do any cooking - we were cruising around and tasting island cuisine everyday - so we can't say anything to how that worked, but the kitchenette had everything we needed to cook and clean up if we'd wanted to. Since we primarily wanted to hangout on the North Shore/Windward side of the island, we took advantage of reserving a gorgeous, beachside, car camping spot at Malaekahana beach park as our home base, but loved that it was cheap enough ($9.95 per person for car camping) that if we decided to hang out somewhere else for the night we weren't going to be upset. The only downside to the campsite was that the vehicle access gate locked at 7pm, but you could still overnight in the front parking lot with the campsite pass and not have to worry, which we did once, and saw other folks doing as well. Other nights we left the van at the campsite and arranged for rides so we could stay out later.
Overall, if you want a totally chillax, boho adventure with the ability to clean up and go on the town then this is the way to go!
