**Disclosure, by the state of Hawaii,
it is illegal to sleep in your car.**
That means that all of the state and county parks/ campsite do not let you sleep in the van. There is One private owned called Malaekahana Beach Campground on the NorthEast Shore in Oahu. Btw they open their gates at 7am and close at 7pm. With all of that being said, the state didn’t seem to be super enforcers but I didn’t want to risk getting a ticket being my first time on the island and not knowing how things worked. If I would of known this from the beginning I would not have rented the van. When I asked the host, they made it seemed like they didn’t know and said no one else have had that problem. Other than that, the hosts were somewhat responsive and shared a few recommendations for the island. The van was wonderful! It drove very nicely, it had water “small amount”, the solar system worked all Thru the night. Even while using a refrigerator. There is a small fan that they provide and you will definitely need it as it gets hot early in the night despite of the windows being open. The sleeping pad is not the most comfortable. The va was super clean and had lots of cleaning supplies, bug spray and even a flashlight. Not much of kitchen supplies if you plan to cook. We didn’t as we wanted to try all of their foods. If you use the toilet make sure it is only for emergencies or may be near the end of the trip. We used it the first night as we arrived late and everything was closed including the campground, and it stunk really bad the rest of the trip. I definitely wish Hawaii would allow RV camping like the rest of the states. It was really nice to be able to drive and visit the whole island. I can imagine how much more amazing would of been to camp all around it without worrying about driving at night. Unfortunately it was a drag having to drive one hour plus from the north shore to the rest of the island. I will say the host was very flexible to let us sleep on his driveway the last two nights as we had an early flight and we were really tired to drive back to the north shore.
