Overall, we were pretty happy with our van rental and loved having wheels and a mobile place to stay.
Pros:
The hosts were amazing, friendly, and communicative. The check in/check out was super easy and we appreciated all the personal tips. The van is LOADED with everything you could possibly need (sunscreen, boogie boards, cooking utensils, umbrella, towels, flashlights, snorkeling gear, beach bag, chairs, the list goes on). We so appreciated this. The mattress is also extremely comfortable (although very short so you can’t stretch out if you’re taller than about 5’8”).
Cons:
The inverter battery needs to be replaced so we didn’t have power at night which sucked. The AC in the van is also broken - wasn’t a big deal for us because we don’t use AC, but I could see this being a problem for others. The van also felt very rickety.. it makes a lot of creaking and rattling noises. Finally, there was a bug problem in the van that they sprayed for, but we still had lots of bug activity.
