No troubles what so ever in arranging the rental, Brad and Jill were very helpful. Highly recommended. UPDATE: 1. I'm not sure why my review is filtered. Supposedly it's an automated process. If you'd like to look me up, I live in Boulder, CO. Google my first name and Boulder. I'm real and we paid to rent Daisy (not the other way around). 2. Before you rent, do your homework on where you want to go on the island. There are lots of spots where you can camp for the night, some legal and some not so legal. Some great, some not so great. A few hours doing research before you pick up the van is time well spent. 3. These vans are classic machines. With Daisy especially, you're effectively driving an antique. Like any older vehicle, it can be a bit quirky = but I thought it was in GREAT condition given it's age. That said, I had no issues with gas or batteries, no bump starts, really no problems.

Brent, the owner, has thought of everything and has put so much aloha into renovating this gem. From the custom mango wood cabinets and floors, to the beautiful Hawaiian print curtains. The camper comes equipped with anything you need for a great Hawaiian adventure: cooking utensils, bedding, beach chairs, surf boards, you name it! Mango has a kitchen with a cook top and a good sized built in cooler. This past trip we took Mango on a beach camping trip at Bellows. The camper top is easy to navigate and very comfortable. The back seat also converts into a bed, sleeping a total of four adults. Brent installed lights in the van that are functional and super cool. You can utilize white lights or the multi-colored LED lighting. A few technical things about Mango: she's a manual vehicle with four speeds. Brent installed a back up camera for more ease and safety when navigating in reverse. The camper is from the 70's, so no air conditioning. Honestly, the windows provide enough air flow and allows you to breathe in the Hawaiian air. There is no power steering, but that's part of the vintage charm! This trip we traveled with our three year old son (and his car seat). Despite having no car seat laws in the 70's, we were able to safety install his car seat without a fuss. Our son absolutely loved, loved, loved, driving around! Renting a camper van allows you to see the island authentically and with amenities at your finger tips. Definitely recommend Hanahou Campers! We will be back!

Bring Malama and see what this island can bring to the mainland. Little vehicle quirks? Surely. Watch out behind, break early... front door had issues. I get that. Next time do a bit more explaining and testing for the mainlander. 5 stars but would like to give 1 cause like the surf it is too good. Be nice to Tango.. Tango is like a kid ready to explore and do everything but just... well, Tango, even at age 35 we gotta know our limits (shhh... remember that time we...) Seriously respect for this operation and through more of that we all globally can have more sharing and fun. Peace and blessings from Da' N Shore.
