  We recently hired Eleanor, a motorhome from Springlight Motorhomes, and had an excellent experience from start to finish. Shane, the owner, was fantastic to deal withprofessional, friendly, and incredibly thorough during the handover. He made sure we understood everything we needed to know before heading off, and throughout our trip he was quick to respond to any questions we had. Elenore herself offered a genuinely premium experience. For a couple in our 40s, the space was nice and roomy, the near king-size bed at the rear remained comfortable even after two weeks on the road, the decent-size fridge, reliable central heating, hot water with good pressure and the 32" smart TV with streaming made it feel like we had all the comforts of home wherever we were. Our journey did come with a few unexpected hiccups: a tyre blowout, a cracked windscreen from a stone kicked up by an oncoming vehicle, and someone even hit the front of the van in a car park while we werent there damaging paint and busting the headlight. Thankfully, we had the Happy Camper level insurance, which we cant recommend highly enough. Windscreen and tyre coverage were included at no extra cost, and although we had to pay a $500 excess for the damage caused by the other driver, it was nothing compared to what we could have been out of pocket for without the top-level cover. Overall, we highly recommend Springlight Motorhomes. The motorhome was superb, the support was great, and we would 100% hire from Shane again on our next adventure.

  Overall, our experience with Eleanor was very good. The Camplify platform was excellent easy to use, clear, and efficient. Shane from SpringLight Motorhomes was outstanding throughout the entire process. He responded quickly and professionally to every question, always showed a genuine willingness to help, and even assisted us with transportation to and from the airport. In addition, he kindly agreed to store our hard suitcases during our trip, which saved us valuable space inside the motorhome. He was always available and ready to assist whenever needed, and we truly appreciated his helpful attitude. However, I would like to mention one issue that unfortunately affected our otherwise positive experience. We purchased the Happy Camper insurance, which limits the maximum liability for any damage to NZD 500. Upon returning the vehicle after 23 days, Shane inspected the motorhome and pointed out a small scratch on the lower front plastic section near the wheel. I initially thought he was joking, as it seemed like a minor and expected mark after a long trip in a large vehicle across New Zealand. To my surprise, he explained that he intended to repair it a process that, according to him, would require disassembly and reassembly, costing at least NZD 600. While I take full responsibility for any real damage I cause, I believe this specific case represents an excessive and unreasonable charge. Minor wear and tear, especially in such a low and exposed area near the wheel, should be considered part of normal use for a rented campervan. Charging the full insurance excess for such a small cosmetic issue leaves customers with an unpleasant final impression, despite an otherwise great rental experience. I hope this feedback will help both Camplify and SpringLight Motorhomes consider a more balanced approach in similar cases, so future travelers can end their trips on the same positive note they began.

The four-bike rack was essential for our trip, The extra bed mattresses made sleeping exceptionally comfortable, and the outdoor table and chairs were perfect for soaking in the views. The detailed walkthrough at the beginning of our rental ensured a smooth and confident start to our journey. Shane from Spring Light was an absolute pleasure to work withfriendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to help. The motorhome was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully stocked with all the necessities. We truly appreciate the seamless experience and exceptional service. Without a doubt, well be back and will most definitely rent from Spring Light again!

  Great experience renting a campervan from Springlight. As it was our first time driving a motorhome, we had loads of questions - Shane was great and very knowledgeable, answering all our queries and providing reassurance. We hired Eleanor, which was in fantastic condition and came as detailed on the website. Would highly recommend renting from Springlight Motorhomes!
