[[File:Funky's Rentals DKC3 GBA.png|thumb|left|The redesigned location in the Game Boy Advance remake]]
Located in the southern end of the [[Northern Kremisphere]], Funky's Rentals is the first stop that Dixie makes on her journey, as she needs a way to reach [[Lake Orangatanga]]. When Dixie first stops in at Funky's Rentals, Funky agrees to let her borrow his [[Motor Boat]], and gives her Kiddy Kong to babysit.


Funky's Rentals has a dropdown menu on a paper scroll at around the top-left corner of the screen. It gives the player either the option to select a vehicle to use on the Northern Kremisphere world map or exiting from the left without renting one. By default, the Motor Boat is the only vehicle available from the menu, but few more can added after the Kongs obtain an essential item for each vehicle from completing some of the worlds.
In the [[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]], Funky also houses a caged [[Banana Bird]] that the Kongs can obtain by completing Funky's four [[Funky's Rentals (minigame)|minigame challenges]], in order: "Destroy", "Disarm", "Protect", and "Race". The first challenge is available by default, but the other three become available for each new vehicle that Funky constructs. The menu no longer appears from a paper scroll, and the vehicles are instead part of a single "Hire boat" option, where the player selects the boat for Dixie and Kiddy to use.
 
Funky can only build his second vehicle, the [[Hover Craft]], after the [[Kong]]s acquire the [[patch (item)|patch]]. His third vehicle, the [[Turbo Ski]], can only be constructed after Dixie and Kiddy obtain both [[ski]]s. Lastly, if the Kongs manage to collect every [[DK Coin]], Funky will construct his final vehicle, the [[Gyrocopter]].
 
In the [[Game Boy Advance]] [[remake]], Funky also houses a caged [[Banana Bird]]. In order for the Kongs to earn it, they must complete Funky's four new [[Funky's Rentals (minigame)|minigame challenges]], in order: "Destroy", "Disarm", "Protect", and "Race". The first challenge is available by default, but the other three become available for each new vehicle that Funky constructs. The location interior was redesigned to look less cluttered, and the menu no longer appears from a paper scroll. The vehicle list was condensed into the "Hire boat" option, in which the player can move the Kongs to select from the available docked boats.

This article is about Funky's location in Donkey Kong Country 3. For a series of minigames in the game's remake, see Funky's Rentals (minigame).

Funky's Rentals, also called the Rental Shop,[1] is a rental garage owned by Funky Kong on the Northern Kremisphere world map in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. It is where he builds his own watercraft, and leases them to the Kongs free of charge. Funky's Rentals is the first place that Dixie visits, and Funky allows her to borrow his Motor Boat, and gives her Kiddy Kong to babysit. Funky's Rentals has a dropdown menu on a paper scroll at around the top-left corner of the screen, where the player can either select a vehicle to use on the world map or exit the building. The Motor Boat is the only vehicle available from the menu at first, but few more can be added after the Kongs obtain an essential item that Funky needs to build them. The second vehicle, the Hover Craft, can be built by Funky once the Kongs have obtained the patch. The Turbo Ski can only be constructed once Dixie and Kiddy obtain both skis. Lastly, if the Kongs have every DK Coin, Funky will construct his final vehicle, the Gyrocopter.

In the Game Boy Advance version, Funky also houses a caged Banana Bird that the Kongs can obtain by completing Funky's four minigame challenges, in order: "Destroy", "Disarm", "Protect", and "Race". The first challenge is available by default, but the other three become available for each new vehicle that Funky constructs. The menu no longer appears from a paper scroll, and the vehicles are instead part of a single "Hire boat" option, where the player selects the boat for Dixie and Kiddy to use.
