We didn't use the shower or toilet as it seemed too much hassle when there is ocean and toilets everywhere. We used the kitchen and stove every day and it worked like a charm, very convenient. Just be aware it warms up the inside significantly, so leave enough time to air it out. The bug netting for all windows helped a lot, and we typically slept with the door and windows open. The bed is pretty decent, I was not able to fully stretch out (5'11") but ot was close. We got a solid 6-8hours every night and were not sore or cramped afterwards. It drives great, we did not have any trouble even on the road to Hana and beyond. Gas mileage: 9.5 mpg averaged. The van is on the big side for the road to Hana and beyond, but we did it without any issues, including the offroad parts. Just be mindful of the narrow parts and be ready to backup when needed if you encounter oncoming traffic at the wrong spots. We had a close challenge only once, when we were parked on a very steep hill and the downhill clearance to the next car was only 2 ft. In reverse the van slipped too much forward and nearly hit the car in front, and we needed to use the hand brake to reverse without going forward. Just be aware, this thing is heavy. Would definitely recommend and pick over the smaller vans or rooftop Jeeps you see everywhere.

My wife, four-year-old son and I rented a ~'90 Westfalia from Aloha Campers this past spring (2017)…read morefrom Aloha Outdoors. The "are you chill" questions on registration are relevant, and pleasantly reciprocal. In detail... As is made super clear up front, we were renting a vintage Westy for some camping around Maui. Warts and all. If folks aren't reading the bold print while making their reservation, then they are in a world of grumpy disappointment. After a somewhat last moment pickup reservation on our part, we were met by a nice lady who drove the three of us to Aloha Outdoors in Kihei. She not only checked us out on the van, but also ensured we were set with camping paraphernalia (chairs, etc), gave us a solid understanding of island options available and not available to us. We had already booked ourselves at Waianapanapa and Camp Olowalu, but were thankful for the miscellaneous detail. Our Westy was on the worn side of their fleet. The ice box was out of order, we were using the backup range by the first morning, little blemishes here and there, missing little bits like the front chair tables, etc. After 172k miles it is expected. Nothing dramatic. Driving the Westy was a bit more than initially expected. I've been behind the wheel of '72 VW Bus and other '60-'70 model cars, but was initially shocked by the driving characteristics of our Westy. It took 30-60 minutes to get into the safe groovy of driving her. (And once I was back home, I was hitting the brakes on my modern car too hard!). TL;DR: break early, having driving experience with older cars is super beneficial. Regardless of driving stress, it was an amazing trip. We had the black sands beach of Waianapanapa to ourselves at times, we met lots of great people, amazing sights, waterfalls, shave ice, etc. "Do you live Aloha?" Yeah. And Aloha Outdoors does too. On my last full day I backed the Westy into a rock. A bunch of bondo popped off the rear passenger wheel well. *Crap*. Afterwards I called the hotline to explain myself. The gentlemen was not pleased and said someone needed to inspect it when the VW was returned the next day. The next day the intake crew was unpulsed, photographed the damage to the owner, and ... I never heard back. Aloha goes both ways, and I appreciate that with these folks. My son still talks about this trip. "Makapipi" is his favorite new word. WE still talk about this trip. Highly recommended, get a Westy while you can.

This made my time on Maui absolutely unforgettable. From the minute we were picked up at the…read moreairport to the minute we were dropped off, I was happy, comfortable, and excited about van life. We got the light blue van with automatic transmission (road to Hana with a manual trans-no thanks!) and Noelle went through the van's features thoroughly before giving us a map of the island and circling all the camping spots available to us and our van baby. After giving us our camping chairs and wishing us a great time, we were off! We drove the road to Hana with no issues, camped in the rain, camped in the wind, by the beach, under streetlights and in the middle of nowhere. This van trip was so much more than accommodations and transportation; it was a literal and figurative vehicle for the kind of life I want to live. Staying in a hotel on a tropical island is nice; you can sleep in AC, lounge by the pool. shower and change in privacy, eat 5 star food and never ever feel out of your element. Staying in a camper van is awesome; you can sleep under the stars next to the ocean, lounge on a remote beach and then nap there, cook inventive, delicious meals with your camping partner, enjoy their company, and be bored enough to do things you wouldn't normally do (talk story for hours, play cards, snuggle up and watch the sun set for an afternoon). It was pretty incredible to actually spend multiple days worth of quality time with my husband, not just occupy the same space while looking at separate screens. You meet so many people who love "your" van, who want to tell you all about the van they used to have, and who embody the elusive aloha spirit that makes human interaction worthwhile and meaningful. We made several friends who dined with us on my glamorous one burner concoctions, or who entertained us with their stories from so many various walks of life over beers shared in camp chairs around the van's "living room". The van isn't perfect- it's 30 years old, and obviously is not a rolling Hilton. If you're creative, adventurous, and willing to see the bright side of any situation, you will LOVE Aloha Campers. Sure, we had to pull over a few times so Bluebell could cool down, and the E-brake light stayed on the entire trip. The back door flew open once in transit, and one morning I woke up with wet toes after some heavy sideways rain. The fridge never worked, and the cooler only kept our beer cold for three days. But those experiences just didn't matter in the grand scheme of things. We lived in a VW van, courtesy of Aloha Campers, on freaking Maui. Plain and simple. We cannot wait until we have a van of our own, and it was all because of this trip. MAHALO NUI LOA!!!!

From the moment we sent our first inquiry to Adam to the final text when we dropped the van at the airport, it was a wonderful and easy experience. We opted for the airport pickup and late airport drop off and it was super easy. Adam met us at the airport, showed us the ropes and then we were off on our 6 day adventure. Tips: Rent the fridge - worth it. Stay in Haleakala National Park. We did and the went on shopping excursions in Hana (very close) for ice, etc. Your pass to this park lets you stay for 3 nights! And, you get access to the hike and 7 sacred pools. Waianapanapa State Park is very beautiful, but BOOK YOUR CAMPER SPACE WELL IN ADVANCE. There is no cell service and you have to show them your reservation. Either print it out before hand or you can take a screen shot of your reservation to show them. Past Makena Beach on the South side of the island is a little stop off and we stayed there overnight. Sunset city!! Camp Olowalu - this camp is a little pricey, but it has HOT SHOWERS and a very cool vibe. The camper location fills up quick and we were lucky to get a same-day reservation...try and book in advance. You can snorkel at their beach and its close to Lahaina. Make sure you stop off at Kahanu Garden - it is a magical spot. Stop at all the little fruit stand people place out in front of their houses - delish and local. Koki Beach is beautiful - be careful of the surf there and eat all the chicken and ribs you can. Get the macaroni/potato salad! All the Maui State Parks are a NO GO for Camping. You should also know that you can contact Vanlife Maui (and Adam) throughout your stay and they are super helpful. Keep an open mind, a friendly smile and your sense of adventure and you will LOVE booking your next #VANLIFEMAUI adventure!
