Frequently Asked Questions

Are there any age limits to rent from you?

We would rather like to work with customers who are twenty-five years and older because of our insurance coverage restrictions. Having said that, based upon your circumstances, whenever possible, we always strive to be accommodating.

In case you are below twenty-five, consider contacting your insurer to find out whether you would be insured for rental vehicles, particularly for pick-up trucks, and then contact us.

Can you accommodate families with kids?

Certainly! Please note that using our rooftop camping vehicles you will need to climb up a little ladder. If this is a concern, we provide an additional camping tent with each package which you could set up on the ground next to the camper vehicle. This may be more convenient for both you as well as your kids.

What is the maximum capacity of your trucks?

The camper vehicles fit three individuals maximum, although if there are more in your party, we do provide an extra camping tent, as well. With this, we are able to allow for about 5 people. Each of our trucks has 5 seatbelts.

Are you able to provide surfboards?

Certainly, our company offers both surfboards & boogie boards and fins on request for a fee. Just inform us in advance if you would like to rent one, so that we can add it to your booking and have it ready for you at departure.

Do we get a guide book or even a map with the greatest hiking trails & beaches to check out on Kauai?

Yes, each vehicle has a Kauai guidebook which details maps and information on the best locations to see & camp out on Kauai.

Kauai Camping Guide & Camping Permits FAQ

Can I visit any beach to camp?

You could drive up to any beach, nevertheless, you should only set up your camp in designated camping sites. This is the usual practice here on Kauai. We will supply you with a list of the ideal locations to check out and also to camp in. Please remember that driving a vehicle on the beaches isn’t permitted on Kauai.

Is “wild camping” allowed or can we just visit official camping grounds? If so, how much is the fee?

No, wild camping isn’t allowed in Kauai. You may only camp in specified locations with secured camping permits. The associated fee is around $3 per night in the majority of Kauai county campgrounds, but private campgrounds may be a bit more. One particular advantage of these campgrounds is that you have total access to facilities, including bathrooms, showers and picnic kitchen tables. Please be aware that if you choose to camp on the county camp sites, you are only allowed to set up the ground tent.

Do we need to get Kauai camping permits before our arrival in Kauai?

It is a better to get your Kauai camping permits prior to your journey. For most private campsites, which we always recommend first, you may get your licenses on the internet and also on-the-spot in the designated office.

If you choose to camp at a county campsite and set up a ground tent, you can request permits by visiting the “County of Kauai Camping Information” page.

Up-front, the costs are $3 per night for nonresidents of Hawaii. Accepted payment methods with this particular application are money orders & cashier’s checks. Nevertheless, it isn’t absolutely necessary to book your camping licenses prior to your planned arrival. You can also obtain them at the various permit offices on the island, which is typically easier.

How much time does it take to obtain the camping permits?

Whether you choose to stay at a state or private campsite, both online and in person reservations are possible. If you choose to go to a county campground, mail-in applications are easy to submit, however it can take quite some time to obtain your permits. Permits can be obtained at the permit offices on Kauai upon arrival; in-person permits are issued on the spot.

TESTIMONIALS


Our Happy Clients!

Exploring Kauai with a rooftop camper is a fun and unique way to explore this beautiful island! Our family of 4 spent 12 fabulous days exploring and camping. The extra tent with the rooftop provided plenty of space for us…we had an amazing time! All communication with Jonathan and Jamie was smooth and easy. They are lovely people who genuinely want to provide a great experience.

Jamie and Jonathan were excellent hosts! Even though they were on vacation, Jonathan made all accommodations very easy and helped us with every step. Note: if you are under 25, make sure to let them know to make sure you are covered by insurance! Jonathan helped us work it out and we had a great time

Duncan

Jamie and Jonathan are by far the very best experience with Airbnb we have ever had. Truly generous human beings with big hearts. They provided wonderful suggestions, amenities, and a wonderful 5 star experience. We will certainly rent again. For our first experience in Hawaii, they made sure it was second to none. If you’re coming to Hawaii to truly experience nature and looking for a ‘no nonsense’ and easy process to explore the island the way it was meant to be, you could not attain better hosts.

We had such an amazing trip with Jamie’s camper! Jamie and Jonathan were both so kind and took their time to explain to us the ins and out of our camper. Communication was easy and the beaches they recommend we visit were like paradise! Will rent again from them when we come back for sure!
