I just came back from Oahu with the wife and we had a great time. 7 Nights 8 days. We rented a mustang from enterprise and when we got there at 2pm they had rented out all the convertibles except 1 VW Beetle and a Jeep Wrangler which i was pretty disappointed because i wanted to drive a convertible. We ended up getting a Toyota Corolla which worked out great because it was super sunny there or super rainy so the drop top wouldn't have been that useful plus one night when we went to north side it poured so much rain that driving a Mustang would have been dangerous to drive. The rain that night was like someone spraying your windshield with the hose on full blast and you have the wipers on full and still barely seeing anything. We stayed at a Airb&b which was 2 blocks away from the main hotels. Our place had free parking and was a 5 minute walk to most of the tourist shopping and eating areas.
I will post what we did below so others can use it if needed.
- Lanikai Pillbox hike 265 Kaelepulu Drive ( pretty muddy/slippery because of the rain but awesome view once your at the top )
- Lanikai beach ( quiet compared to Waikiki beach )
