We LOVED staying in Tim's sprinter van!!!! It was AWESOME! If you are a camper SIGN UP! SO FUN! We had our dudes with us. Ages 6 and 4. They LOVED the North Shore. We spent half the trip camping then the second half at Hilton Hawaiian Village. I'll have to say, THE CAMPING WAS THE BEST PART! We camped on North Shore but all the beaches were better, the food was better AND CHEAPER. THINGS I'D BRING FOR THE VAN: a camping fan or two. When it rains, you can't keep the doors and windows open in the van so you'll need the fans to keep you comfortable so you can sleep.
ALSO, bring your jet boil for coffee, etc. it's easier. We brought a couple camping towels to use for showering and used Tim's beach towels for the beach. He had chairs, a beach mat, sand toys and a boogie board! WE HAD THE BEST TIME! We jumped off the plane and took an UBER to Tim's right by the Ala Moana shopping center! SUPER EASY and convenient. THANK YOU TIM! We're already planning our next trip!
