Now how to fly here...There are three commuter airlines: Island Air , Go and Pacific Wings. So good service and a good range of prices.
You definitely need a car on Molokai. No public transportation. We only have two national car rental agencies: Budget and Dollar. These are frnachises, so locally owned. Both are much the same, although prices vary between the two companies. You need to rent in advance because we have a shortage of cars on weekends and during the winter. And you pay more when you don't reserve in advance.
There is one local rental, Island Kine. Same price all year. Used cars but in good shape. Many of our guests use them.
Shop around for the best price. Let us know if you have questions.
We try to greet all our guests at the airport to ensure no hassles and do an orientation of the island when you arrive so you can find and do the things you come to Molokai for.
We are accessible and helpful and want guests to relax and get in tune with what is important and that is family and nature.
There is one good places to rent bikes: Molokai Bicycle. Molokai is a great place to bike if you are in good shape and enjoy the challenge of some uphill travel. Think about the vacation you want if you are choosing to bike and not rent a car. Remember, there is no public transportation system and no taxi cabs.
On the smaller planes, there are luggage restrictions on weight. If you have items that you don't need while on Molokai, there are secure services at the Honolulu Airport to store your baggage. Not a big deal, if you want to bring everything; however, expect a surcharge for the overweight baggage, and all the baggage doesn't always come on the same plane. But it almost always comes on the next plane. So don't worry. That is why we are at the airport to meet you. To help you should that happen.
Casual. The standard dress is t-shirts, shorts, and rubber slippers or thongs. The Resort is a bit more dressy for dinner but casual wear is more than acceptable everywhere else. In the winter bring a light jacket or sweater since it does go down to the mid 60s at night.
