Let me start with this: Monica is the BEST and SWEETEST person ever. From our first entrance into the store to our goodbyes, Monica always greeted us with a warm smile, genuine wave, and thoughtful service. She has such a servant heart.
TL;DR - do yourself a favor on your trip and go with 808 rides. ☝🏼💯 They also have the best prices we could find in our online research so that’s a definite added plus!!!
In planning our trip, my husband and I really wanted to ride something other than a car throughout our time in Maui. We knew that the next time we came to Maui would be with our young kids and so we wanted to enjoy the things we probably wouldn’t be able to do with them here☺️. We made the reservation for our mopeds & were scheduled to pick them up the morning after we landed at 8am. ☀️We arrived at 8am and were warmly greeted by Monica and Joe. After signing the forms & getting our helmets, we went out to the mopeds.
Long story short, I crashed twice on the moped - 100% my fault. (My husband did great riding it so it had nothing to do with our training.) Needless to say, we didn’t go with the mopeds.
The thing I want to highlight about the whole situation is that Monica was extremely understanding, compassionate and caring. 💕 I got some bad bruising and road rash and she quickly made sure I was okay, got the first aid kit, and was so nurturing amidst me being shaken up. Joe also was very caring and was able to pass along some timely experiential wisdom.
Monica offered us to replace the mopeds with the golf cart. I was hesitant since being scared of getting in/on anything with wheels but it ended up being the coolest and most fun experience ever (obviously my husband drove the whole trip). Driving around in the golf cart (especially with the pouring rain that flooded the streets) made our trip so memorable.
All this to say, this was one of the best and most memorable trips - 808 rides was a great company to work with, and Monica is the best ⭐️
