Hiring rules
- As with most modern caravans in NZ, you need a 50mm towball to tow it (not a 1 7/8 inch), as the caravan has a 50mm stabiliser coupling with an antisway mechanism.
- Sealed roads only. Going down unsealed roads, especially at high speeds and high tire pressure, can seriously damage the caravan as the bouncing up and down can create forces beyond the engineering specifications. This can create cracks in the chassis and hull of the caravan.
- Experienced towers only.
- No smoking inside the caravan.
- Hirer must be 25 years of age or older.

- Hire Fee

Mark 5.0We had a great family holiday in Motueka & Hanmer Springs. Rene was very good with communication and the caravan was perfect for our family of 5. Cheers

Jacob 5.0Just the perfect caravan for our family! Rene was fantastic with everything. We found the caravan last minute, and Rene was so kind and even delivered the van to us at no extra charge. He responded super fast and gave us so many useful tips. The caravan itself is just perfect for a family. We have rented a few different ones in the past, but none had such a great distribution and were as perfectly equipped with everything we needed. You can clearly tell that Rene and his family use the caravan themselvesits not just a rental. The kids loved it too! We just hope Renes caravan is always available when we need one. :)
Anita 4.8We had an amazing holiday in this caravan, it was clean, easy to use, very well set up and stocked with the essentials (pots, cups, tea/coffee, cleaning items, washing line, camping chairs + tables etc.). Rene was very thoughtful of all we might need travelling with a toddler and included a few age appropriate books - which my daughter loved. Would definitely hire this caravan again!
