Beautiful vintage/retro caravan!! This gorgeous van has been fully redecorated and provides you with all the comforts you need for your break at the beach. Note - currently booked in for an exterior paint job (winter) so although cosy, dry and absolutely stunning on the inside, a bit shabby on the outside at present… Spacious but cosy, set up for your comfort in any of the caravan parks/holiday parks, or book to set up at your house if an extra room is required, around Taranaki. Equipped with everything you need for your short stay, Kapowai (water snatcher / dragonfly) brings the beach vibe you didn’t know you needed. Has one double bed set up and one sofa that extends to a small double bed (one adult or two small children) Linen - bedding (sheets, pillow, comforter), bath towels x 6, beach towels x 2, tea towel x 2, dish cloth x 1 We can provide the power cord for camp ground fittings, and also have an adapter to plug into a house outlet if you are using at a personal residence.

Additional information

No hassle for you! We set up AND we pack up. We aim to have everything ready for you when you arrive and will arrive on site to tow Kapowai home after you leave. Note - this will depend on the holiday park you book and we will need sufficient time to pack up before your advised departure time! It would be appreciated if you discuss your hireage plans with the holiday park, preferably we'd like to come in and set up for you prior to your arrival. Alternatively, we'll arrive when you check in, and just ask for half an hour while we unpack and prepare your abode!

    We had such an amazing holiday from start to finish because of our little haven away from home. He nunui te manaaki ki a koe, Michelle. Thanks for the special touches, we loved staying at Kapowai x

    We had a fantastic holiday with the caravan, took us back to childhood days of camping. Everything you need is there, comfortable beds, lovely bedding, spacious ,neat and tidy interior and little extras. The big windows are a plus for us for the views! Magic! We definitely will hire it again for our next holidays! Thanks for sharing your caravan.

    Camper was clean and tidy and Michelles communication was great. It was warm and cosy even in August in Taranaki on very cold nights with enough room for us to set up the portacot. We hired for a friends wedding and was perfect being able to be right there!

    Michelle and her family made the pick-up and drop off really easy. They were friendly and generous and fast and easy to communicate with. Kapowai was comfortable, clean and spacious and we loved her.
