I moved to Kauai in early 2023 from San Diego after visiting the island for just a few days in 2022. Since then, it has been an amazing home and I'm still not done exploring everything there is to offer. I love sharing my van with first-time visitors and island regulars/residents. Please let me know if you'd like help deciding what to do and places to see!

Andrea’s van was a great way to explore Kauai! My husband and I rented it for our 8-day trip to celebrate our anniversary and had our best vacation in a long, long time. Wish that we were still there. The van was a nice upgrade to our Volkswagen Eurovan that we have at home and gave us lots of flexibility. We used the van as our base camp for our Nāpali Coast backpacking trip and camped Kumu Resort, Kokee State Park, and Salt Pond Beach Park. Kumu was our favorite camp with nice neighbors, hot shower, and a beautiful beach. Andrew was a responsive and wonderful hosting giving us great recommendations for hiking., food, beaches, and more. Pickup and dropoff of the van at Andrew’s house was an easy Uber ride from the airport. Definitely recommend Andrew and his van for your next trip to Kauai:)

Bed was little short for anyone 6 foot+ might need a bigger bed. Overall great camper and easy to drive.

It was amazing - wish it was 4 wheel drive for certain occasions but all in all Andrew was amazing and so was his van 🙌🏽 would recommend for adventurous people!

Andrew was a great host, very helpful and responsive and made everything easy for us with delivering and returning the van.
The van worked well for our purpose of wanting to see a lot of the island without being tethered down. It is in good shape and comes with some nice amenities. The bed is most suitable for a solo person or a couple with both parties under 5’8’’.

Andrew’s answer

Thanks for the review Shannon! I just ordered a custom pad to extend the bed out a bit further. I’ll include pictures when the van is updated, glad you enjoyed your trip to Kauai!

Q.What flexibility is available for picking up and dropping off the RV?
A.
I am very flexible with pick-up and drop-off times. Outdoorsy defaults to 3pm pick-ups and 11am drop-offs, but I can schedule around your arrival and departure flights (if applicable)

Q.Are there any campgrounds where we shouldn't stay?
A.
Lydgate Beach Park and Ahukini State Park are both areas I would avoid camping for the night. Even during the day there are thefts. Anini and Salt Pond are two of my favorites to camp!

Q.How does using the bathroom work in this camper?
A.
Starting Jan 2024, I will have a portable toilet available as an add-on for $30. Most renters find the public restrooms and showers at the campgrounds and beaches work for their trip, but if you'd like one for peace of mind please to so! Emptying the portable toilet will be the renter's responsibility.
