  We paid almost 300 dollars per day for this campervan, but unfortunately it caused many problems and partially ruined our experience in New Zealand. The campervan was very old, likely from the 1990s. There were problems with both the automatic and manual transmission, and on several occasions the vehicle left us stuck in traffic, which was stressful and unsafe. The air conditioning did not work properly, and the fuel gauge was not working properly. During the first few days, we also had major difficulties getting hot water, as it was not working. Only later, after speaking with the owner, did we find out that the hot water system only works if the gas stove is momentarily turned on. In addition, the grey water tank was leaking, and there was often a strong sewer smell inside the vehicle, which suggests the two issues may be connected. There were also other smaller but still important deficiencies : there was no mirror inside the campervan, no phone holder for navigation while driving, and one large curtain was missing between the front and the living area. The owner was kind, responsive, and always available when we contacted him, which we appreciated. However, much more attention should be paid to the condition and maintenance of the vehicles offered for rent. Overall, we are very unhappy with this experience, especially considering the high daily rental price.

  We had a great time in Kea, the van performed flawlessly and the interior is really charming, hand made and thoughtful. The engine powerful enough to cruise up the hills in NZ, and as three adults we fit just fine in the three beds. It was convenient to be able to fold away the beds and have a lot more head room as well as walking and sitting space to prepare food and sit and chat over tea next to a lake. With the sand flies in NZ it was a dream to be able to sit in the van while having dinner, instead of sitting and cooking outside. I would totally book this again, unlimited possibilities when you can drive and sleep all the way up and down the country. Franco was also very helpful in the beginning, explaining every part of the van. As someone who had never hired a van, this was very helpful and saved us a lot of head ache. I highly recommend getting a van for NZ, the freedom camping areas are beautiful and next time I think I'll be looking for Kea again. Thanks Franco!
