Aloha
We’re two local families new to taking over this business—born and raised here or with Hawaiian roots, including Kanaka Maoli—who each run small businesses and recently took on this company to share a more authentic way to explore the island. Our goal is to help visitors experience Hawaiʻi the way we do: with a sense of adventure, respect, and aloha.Because we balance this with full-time work and four little keiki between us, we truly appreciate flexibility and understanding. We’ll always do our best to accommodate your needs and communicate clearly, and we’re grateful to host guests who value kindness, patience, and mutual respect.Mahalo for choosing to support a local, family-run business—we’re happy to have you here. What's includedSleeping for 2+2, bathroom (toilet and shower), 110 clean power, refrigerator, stovetop, dining table, roof fan, backup camera, wheelchair ramp and lock-down systems. Seatbelts for 5
• NO HOUSE AC
• ac only works in vehicle while driving.
As part of our off-grid living setup, power is thoughtfully managed. The refrigerator does not run 24 hours a day—when you turn in for the night, the fridge does too. We provide a cooler so you’ll have easy access to drinks and snacks you may want overnight.RecommendationsVan is larger than most 24 ft, so campgrounds are recommended, though not required. This van can drive all over the island as it is a retired city vehicle. It provides reasonable accommodation to handicap travelers and better access for medically challenged families, it it’s just a great normal van! Just keep in mind, this experience is a step up from traditional camping, not the luxury of a hotel.
