About Mercedes's RV rentals

My Name is Mercedes and along with my husband Lionel we bought our sprinter van "Olive" a year ago. I had actually rented our van from Texino ( they are no longer in business) for my husbands 50th bday. i wanted to surprise him and take him on a surfing trip adventure that he would never forget. I had never traveled like this before so i thought why not. That trip changed our life. When i went to drop Olive off i just couldn't part ways. I knew right then and there that i needed her in our lives and that i also wanted to share her with other like minded individuals looking to explore the outdoors in comfort and ease. We bough Olive last year and since then it's been amazing. We take a lot of care when prepping the Van for our customers so they can have the best time possible. We look forward in hosting you soon.

The RV (who goes by "Olive") was perfect in every way. My son (18) and I took her out on a climbing trip for a few days near the Mojave Desert in December. It was super comfy and cozy staying in her and being able to get out of the elements. She drove really smoothly and had everything we needed. Would love to rent her again!

This is an amazing van with an excellent layout and design. Plus, the owners keep the van in perfect condition, have included many useful amenities and are so nice and helpful. We had an amazing trip and can’t wait to rent Olive again?

Mercedes is FASTIDIOUS! The van is absolutely clean and perfect. We sort of felt guilty about taking it into the desert. But what an incredible time! We went to Anza-Borrego and Cleveland National Forest and can’t wait to return. The van is simply perfect for cooking, sleeping, hanging out and playing cards. Memory foam mattress is sublime, kitchen is stocked, chairs and table and awning make outdoor hangs unforgettable. We will be back!!!!!!

This was our 3rd trip with Olive, we absolutely love her! She is so comfortable, easy to drive and well stocked with everything you could need. We get the best sleep on that cozy bed out in nature (but not too much! haha). It's a game changer having a fridge, a sink, a stove and even a shower. Mercedes, the owner, is amazing. She communicates quickly and is super organized, which is why the van is stocked so well! I highly recommend Olive to anyone looking to experience nature with the comforts of home.

We rented Olive for a long weekend at our kids’ sporting events. She was the perfect place to getaway from the heat to rest. Mercedes was a lovely host and thoroughly explained how everything worked. We hope to invest in our own van - this was thr perfect way to try it out and convinced us that we definitely need a van in our lives.

Mercedes’s answer

I’m so happy you and your family enjoyed your experience. It was an absolute pleasure to host you all and know that Olive is at your disposal if ever you need a second van to roam in after you get yours :-)
