DriveNow's take: vehicle |  Stuart's takeThe perfect motorhome for a couple or 4 adults with premium Maui quality finishes. Your vehicle comes fully equipped with bedding, kitchen kit, bathroom, climate control and entertainment — there's nothing you need to bring. About Maui BeachStuart's takeThis is the perfect motorhome for a couple or 4 adults. Maui is the premium brand and their interior finishes are the best quality when it comes to campervans and motorhomes in Australia. Your vehicle comes fully equipped with bedding and linen, complete kitchen kit (plates, bowls, cutlery, bottle opener, can opener, colander, saucepans, frying pans, cooking utensils, chopping board, kettle, toaster, and tea towel), toilet, shower, central cabin heating and cooling, touchscreen display with radio, bluetooth, Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, USB-C in cab, house entertainment screen, and external USB. There's nothing you need to bring. Your home on wheels has been designed with comfort in mind — warm neutral tones, wooden floors and leather sofas. The front dining zone pairs swivel seats with the table behind for a more versatile space within your campervan. Whether your getaway is for a week or a month, there's no better vehicle to experience luxury camping. Maui vehicles range between 0 to 2 years of age, so you're always getting a vehicle in great condition. Although this motorhome is large in size, with automatic transmission and a turbo diesel engine, it's very easy to drive and has plenty of power — perfect for first-timers. One tip: arrange an online 'click and collect' supermarket food shop from Coles or Woolies near your first night's destination. This will save you plenty of time and less hassle. | Stuart's take The Maui Cascade maximises living space with a second double bed that lowers from the ceiling at the click of a button. Popular with couples who want extra space, but comfortable for 4 adults travelling together. About Maui CascadeStuart's takeThe Maui Cascade maximises living space with a clever second double bed that lowers from the ceiling at the click of a button. It's popular with couples who want extra space, but works well for 4 adults travelling together. Maui is the premium brand — their interior finishes are the best quality you'll find in Australian campervans and motorhomes. You'll get a vehicle that's 0 to 2 years old, so it's always in great condition. After day five, you'll appreciate the space. The vehicle comes fully equipped with bedding, linen, complete kitchen kit (plates, bowls, cutlery, saucepans, frying pan, cooking utensils, chopping board, kettle, toaster), toilet, shower, cabin heating and cooling, touchscreen with Bluetooth, Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, USB-C charging, and house entertainment screen. First-timers will find this easy to handle. The sleek design makes driving simple, and with automatic transmission, power steering, and reversing camera, it ticks all the boxes for campervan rental newcomers. With 4 adults, you get internal walk-through access and front swivel seats. The 3rd and 4th seats sit just behind the driver's cabin, so you're close enough to talk and swap stories while driving. One tip: pack a power board so everyone can charge their devices without fighting over the vehicle's power sockets. | Stuart's take Maui's largest motorhome sleeps 6 adults with premium interior finishes and a large awning for outdoor living. At 7.7+ metres, parking can be tight at shopping centres. About Maui RiverStuart's takeThe River is Maui's largest motorhome, sleeping up to 6 adults or a family of 6 comfortably. You get premium interior finishes — Maui is the quality leader when it comes to Australian campervans and motorhomes. The large awning gives you plenty of shade for your camping table and chairs when you're socialising outside. After a week on the road, you'll appreciate the luxury touches. The River comes fully equipped with bedding, linen, complete kitchen kit, toilet, shower, central heating and cooling, and house entertainment screen. You get modern tech too — touchscreen display with Bluetooth, Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, and USB-C charging in the cab. The trade-off is size. At over 7.7 metres long, parking at shopping centres can be limited and tight to manoeuvre. Stick to on-street parking where possible. Maui vehicles are 0-2 years old, so you're always getting a vehicle in great condition. The Platinum Pack includes all the additional items you need, plus the option for fresh linen exchange during longer trips. Two child seats can be fitted on the forward-facing seats in the main cabin. | Stuart's take The Maui Sunset 6 Berth Motorhome is designed for family holidays with a bigger fridge, spacious living area and external awning. As Maui's premium brand, you get the best interior finishes and vehicles aged 0-2 years. About Maui SunsetStuart's takeThe Maui Sunset 6 Berth Motorhome is designed for family holidays. You get a bigger fridge, spacious living area and external awning for outdoor dining. Two child seats can be fitted on the forward-facing seats in the main cabin. Maui is the premium brand — their interior finishes are the best quality when it comes to campervans and motorhomes in Australia. Maui vehicles are always 0-2 years old, so you're getting a vehicle in great condition. Everything's included. Your vehicle comes with bedding and linen, full kitchen kit (plates, bowls, cutlery, bottle opener, can opener, colander, saucepans, frying pans, cooking utensils, chopping board, kettle, toaster, and tea towel), toilet, shower, central cabin heating and cooling, and plenty of tech — touchscreen display with radio, Bluetooth, Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, USB-C in cab, house entertainment screen, and external USB. There's nothing you need to bring. The trade-off? This vehicle is over 7.5 metres long, which makes parking limited. On-street parking may be your best option. Despite the size, this motorhome is easy to drive. The automatic transmission and turbo diesel engine give you plenty of power, making it suitable even for first-timers. One tip: arrange an online 'click and collect' supermarket shop from Coles or Woolworths near your first night's destination. This saves plenty of time and hassle. | Stuart's take Maui's premium campervan with the best interior finishes in Australia — vehicles are 0-2 years old so you're getting top condition. The front seats swivel to a small table, letting you keep the main bed set up all day. About Maui UltimaStuart's takeMaui's premium campervan with the best interior finishes in Australia. You're getting a vehicle that's 0-2 years old, so it's always in great condition. The clever bit: the front seats swivel around to a small table. You can eat at this table and keep the main bed set up all day — no daily conversion hassle. Large windows all around make this one of the best campervans for taking in the views. After five days on the road, you'll appreciate the full equipment list. Everything's included — bedding, linen, plates, kitchen kit (pans, utensils, kettle, toaster, the lot). You get a toilet, shower, heating and cooling, plus modern tech: touchscreen with Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, reversing camera, USB-C charging, and an entertainment screen. The trade-off: parking at shopping centres gets tight with this size vehicle. Stick to street parking when you're in town. This is perfect for first-timers — safe, secure, and simple to drive. One tip: book your last night at a campground with a dump point so you can empty the toilet cassette and refill the water tank before returning the van. | Stuart's take The Ultima Plus is designed for a young family with 2 adults and a child or teenager. You get Maui's premium quality finishes and a vehicle that's 0-2 years old. About Maui Ultima PlusStuart's takeThe Ultima Plus is designed for a young family with 2 adults and a child or teenager. The single bed is shorter and narrower than the spacious double — perfect for a teenager or smaller child. You get Maui's premium quality finishes and a vehicle that's 0-2 years old. This van excels at taking in the scenery. Large windows all around make it one of the best campervans for views on the open road. The 3rd seat sits behind the driver with walk-through access, so you can easily attend to your child while driving. The trade-off? At 7 metres long, parking gets tricky. You'll often need to find on-street parking rather than standard car spaces. It's excellent for first-timers. Everything's included — bedding, linen, full kitchen kit, toilet, shower, heating and cooling, plus entertainment screens and all the connectivity you need. You don't need to bring anything. One tip: arrange online grocery pickup from Coles or Woolworths near your first night's destination. It'll save you time and hassle after pickup. |
DriveNow's take: supplier |  Jack's takeMaui is a premium campervan and motorhome brand under the THL group, known for newer vehicles loaded with the latest features. Best for travellers who want a high-end experience and don't mind paying for it. About MauiJack's takeMaui are a premium brand who excel at high-end campervans and motorhomes. Their vehicles are newer than most on the market, so you rarely hear complaints about mechanical issues — and newer vehicles mean they're usually packed with the latest upgrades available. One thing to check before you book: because their fleet is newer, bond amounts can be quite high if you're not taking Maui's liability reduction options. Worth factoring into your budget upfront. Pick-up is a strong point. Maui is part of THL, which runs one of the largest campervan and motorhome fleets in Australia. You get online check-in before you arrive, plus an app with instructional videos — handy for prepping before your trip or checking something while you're on the road. If something goes wrong out on the road, Maui's fleet size works in your favour. They've got a wide network of mechanics and depots around the country for quick fixes, plus a 24/7 roadside assistance line. Maui is best suited to travellers after a premium campervan or motorhome experience — you're paying more, but you're getting a newer vehicle and better support if things go sideways. For two people wanting a new vehicle without going oversized, the Maui Ultima is our pick. It's packed with features but still a manageable size to drive and park. | Jack's take Maui is a premium campervan and motorhome brand under the THL group, known for newer vehicles loaded with the latest features.

Sleeping capacity
How many people the vehicle sleeps. Where the supplier separates them, adult and child places are shown; a child berth isn't big enough for an adult. Seatbelts are a separate number, so check both for a group.
Bed layout
Where each bed is and what kind it is. Some beds stay made up, while others are made from the seating each night; Main bed setup shows which.
Bed sizes
Each bed's length × width in metres. Compare the length with the tallest person travelling, and the width with who is sharing.
The bed types in this comparison:
Drop-down bed
A bed that lowers from near the ceiling when you need it. Raise it again to use the living space underneath.
Overcab bed
A raised sleeping area above the driver's cab. Check the vehicle details for access and any weight limits.
Dinette or lounge bed
The dining or lounge seats convert into a bed. The same space is used for sitting during the day and sleeping at night.
Upper and lower beds
Beds arranged one above the other inside the vehicle. The upper bed may have a weight limit, shown in the vehicle details where confirmed.
Rear bed
A bed at the back of the vehicle. Its position does not tell you whether it stays made up or converts from seating; check Main bed setup for that.
Double bed
One shared bed for two people. Compare the dimensions, as double beds differ in size between vehicles.
Single bed
A separate bed for one person. Some are child berths; check the sleeping capacity and dimensions in the table.
More in the handbook: Tips for a good night's sleep
A toilet and shower on board mean you can stay at basic or free campsites without amenities, and skip the night-time walk to a shared block. With a toilet only, you have the essentials; with neither, plan to stay where there are facilities.
An onboard toilet needs emptying at a dump point every few days.
More in the handbook: Emptying the toilet and waste tanks
The fridge's capacity in litres; a range means it depends on the vehicle you're given. A bigger fridge means fewer shopping stops, which matters most for families and on remote stretches.
How the fridge is powered when you're parked affects how long it keeps food cold away from a powered site.
More in the handbook: Using the fridge
Heating or air-conditioning for the living area with the engine off. Many units only run at a powered site, while some heaters run from gas or the house battery, so check what each one needs.
Cab air-conditioning only works while driving. Portable heaters or fans may be included or available to hire.
More in the handbook: Heating and cooling
In many smaller campers the table becomes the bed, so once the bed is made there's nowhere inside to sit and eat. A separate table matters on rainy days, or when someone wants to sleep while others are still up.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
Longer vehicles have more room inside but are harder to park in town and need a bigger campsite. A range means it depends on the vehicle you're given.
Ferry fares for campervans are usually charged by length.
More in the handbook: Ferry costs
Clean water for drinking, cooking and washing. A bigger tank means longer between refills, which matters at free campsites without taps. A range means it depends on the vehicle you're given.
How long it lasts depends on how you use it, especially for showers.
More in the handbook: Fresh water
How much standing room there is inside. Taller travellers will be more comfortable with more headroom; in low-roof campers most people can't stand upright.
An outdoor or slide-out cooker keeps cooking smells and heat out of the living area, which helps in warm weather and in small campers. Many campsites also have shared barbecues.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
Used water from the sink and shower collects in the grey-water tank. A bigger tank means fewer stops at a dump point, and some campsites don't let you drain it on the ground.
It's separate from the toilet, which has its own cassette or tank.

Everyone travelling needs their own seatbelt, so this is the most people the vehicle can carry, even if it sleeps more. Some seats are in the living area rather than the cab.
More in the handbook: Will I need multiple vehicles?
Child seats need suitable seat positions and anchor points, and some positions only take a booster. The combination shown is what the supplier allows, so check it covers every child's age and size.
Child seats are usually hired from the supplier as an extra.

How you can play music, connect a phone and watch a screen. A screen doesn't guarantee TV reception or DVD playback, and listed USB ports may not charge every device quickly.
Where it says some models, it isn't guaranteed in every vehicle of that model.
More in the handbook: Using the TV or screen
How wide the vehicle is affects narrow country roads, standard car parks and tight campsites. A range means it depends on the vehicle you're given.
Multi-storey car parks, drive-throughs and some bridges have height limits, so know your vehicle's height before you set off. A raised-roof height, where shown, applies when the roof is lifted while parked.
More in the handbook: Vehicle height awareness
How the vehicle is powered when parked. At a powered site everything runs; off-grid, the house battery and any solar run the lights, fridge and charging.
Not every appliance works from every source: air-conditioning and microwaves usually need mains power.
More in the handbook: What works off-grid
The supplier's age range for this model. You're given one vehicle from within it, so Up to 2 years means it has been on the supplier's fleet for no more than about two years, 4+ years means at least four, and 4–7 years means between four and seven.
Newer vehicles generally show less wear and are more likely to have recent equipment. Older vehicles have usually covered more kilometres, which raises the chance of a breakdown. Older fleets are often the budget option, and a well-maintained older camper can still suit a trip.
Suppliers count age differently. Some count time on their fleet, others go by model year, so treat a one-year difference as approximate.
More in the handbook: How likely are breakdowns?
A fixed bed stays made up, so you can rest at any time without rearranging. A bed made from the dinette or lounge gives you more living space by day, but takes a few minutes to set up each night and pack away each morning.
Some dinette beds can be left made up if you don't need the table.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
Hot water makes showers and washing up easier, especially in cooler months. Without it, you'll heat water on the cooker for dishes.
Where shown, the energy source tells you what the hot water runs on.
In a combined wet room the toilet sits inside the shower, so the whole room gets wet when you shower. A separate toilet and shower works more like home but takes more space.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
What you can cook on inside the vehicle. The number of burners affects how much you can cook at once, which matters for a group.
Gas cooktops run from an LPG bottle that you refill or swap on the road.
More in the handbook: Using the gas bottle
A table and chairs make it easy to eat and relax outside, which helps most in smaller campers. Some suppliers include them; others hire them out per trip, so check before comparing prices.
More in the handbook: Equipment you can hire
A reversing camera makes parking a large vehicle much easier, because you can't see directly behind most campers. Some models means only some vehicles in the fleet have one, so you may not get it.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
An outside locker keeps bulky or dirty gear, such as chairs, hoses or wet shoes, out of the living area. Space inside is limited, so soft bags pack more easily.
More in the handbook: Luggage
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
With a walk-through you can move between the cab and the living area without getting out, which is handy in rain or at night. Without one, you step outside to get from one to the other.
A microwave that needs mains power only works at a powered site, not when you're free camping.
More in the handbook: What works when connected to power
A solar panel tops up the house battery during the day, which helps run the lights and fridge away from a powered site. How much it adds depends on the panel, the weather and how much power you use.
More in the handbook: Battery and solar
Whether pots, pans, plates and cutlery come with the vehicle. Most suppliers include a kitchen kit; some charge for it as an extra, so check what's included before comparing prices.

Cab air-conditioning or heating makes long drives more comfortable. It runs with the engine, so it doesn't cool or heat the living area when you're parked; see Heating & cooling when parked.
Most rental campervans are automatic, and some older or budget models are manual. If you only drive automatics, make sure every vehicle you're considering is one.
