The car was decent, but the car pick-up instructions were too vague, causing a significant delay in finding the car and wasting a lot of time. I called customer service, but one number said it was not Envy’s hotline, and the other was never answered. As for the drop-off, I couldn’t find the specified parking lot, so I ended up parking in another lot and then explained the situation via email.
Terrible! Absolutely do not use this company! The rental company is too small and has no customer service. They just leave the car in the parking lot with the keys inside, give you $5 for parking fees, and send you an email telling you where the car is. You have to find it yourself! No airport staff have heard of this rental company! The worst part is, I rented two cars but was only given one email and one license plate number. I had no idea where the other car was. When I contacted the rental platform, they didn't help either. Finally, when I got in touch with the rental company, they did not apologize at all and just gave me another license plate number over the phone and told me to keep looking. In summary -- absolutely do not use this company! Also, I rented an XC90, which is an SUV, but they gave me a Toyota van. How on earth is that the same class? I'm currently filing a complaint!

No storefront! They didn't deliver the car to my hotel! Had to find someone in a public parking lot of an unfamiliar hotel, two staff members delivered the car.

About Envy:6.0/10
I booked this after seeing good online reviews, and chose a Volvo model, which is a plus. However, this was the most frustrating car rental experience I had across various islands in Hawaii. First, this company, Envy, does not have a physical store; the car was in a parking spot that we had to find ourselves. The location is okay if you're arriving from an international flight, but from an inter-island flight, it's a long walk. The direction signs for picking up the car were also confusing. The first elevator only goes to the 3rd floor, but the instructions only mentioned the 4th floor, which led us to search the building for an elevator that goes to the 4th floor. Even the information desk people couldn’t help. Secondly, if you have a lot of luggage, it’s quite an effort because there is no elevator going to the floor where the car is parked. Thirdly, as I had a lot of luggage, I booked a 7-seater SUV to fold the third row for luggage space. The car I got had a broken seat in the third row that wouldn’t fold down. I called the customer service of the rental platform, and they said they couldn't guarantee the third row could be folded down, which shocked me. Is this like saying they can't guarantee the wheels are round? They pushed me to contact Envy. Envy didn't answer the phone, unlike other companies like Alamo where you can choose a car and reject or change if there's an issue. With Envy, you only get the one car in the spot. I emailed Envy and got an apology but no follow-up. After this, the rental went smoothly, to be fair. For returning the car, you have to follow the route in the email to the parking garage. There's no GPS address, so if you take a wrong turn, it’s quite troublesome. As for another issue, I haven't fixed the overtime parking fee with either Envy or the rental platform.
The vehicle was very new, having only been driven 1300 km. The built-in GPS was extremely helpful as my phone's TomTom app led me astray twice. Fortunately, the car's onboard navigation got me to the right place.
