Shirley is the third campervan in the Sun + Salt fleet and she is already a guest favorite! A newly converted 2019 Ram Promaster 2500 camper van with a beautiful interior for a cozy home-away-from-home experience. With brand new, high-end features and only the best materials, make your adventure around the Big Island meaningful during the day and restful at night. Shirley fits a full bed, large sink with a manual foot pump, efficiency fridge (+freezer), a mobile solar shower with a hand-pump, a ventilation fan for a cooler night, a butane stove, and swivel seats with a lagun table for eating inside if it's rainy out. Shirley has two 100 AH batteries that are charged via 400watts from the solar panels and off the alternator (ie. you won't run out of battery!). If you hotspot off your phone, she's a great place to work remote from. What's included Shirley includes: fresh linens, towels, kitchenware and cookware, french press, utensils, portable camping stove and propane (can use inside or outside), and an outdoor mat to help keep things clean. She is set with all the kitchen amenities you could need for cooking three meals a day (french press, coffee grinder, wine opener, can opener, utensils, plates, cups, bowls, skillets, pots, and more!). For additional charges, Betty can include: Two camping/beach chairs Large beach umbrella Surf board Inflatable Paddle Board Two boogie boards Two floatation inner-tubes Recommendations They don’t call the island of Hawai’i “The Big Island” for nothing - it’s huge! Exploring via camper van is one of the best ways to see all the sites and avoid excessive driving (and costs) between your lodging and next adventure. If you’ve rented a camper van on the mainland before, you should know it’s a little different on the Big Island. It’s technically illegal to sleep in a vehicle in public spaces. I have put together a map of spots on the island where you could park overnight - secret spots, campgrounds that you will need to obtain a permit beforehand, and places to park in a pinch. My renters have had no issues with just a little bit of forethought and being mindful of where I park overnight. I give you everything you need to plan in advance (the more you prep, the better your stay will be!). Other things to note Pickup and Drop off: Pickup is between noon and 8pm and drop off is before 11 am. Pets are welcome! If you can find a festival, you are welcome to take her there! No smoking Prohibited areas: Due to Betty not having 4WD, you are not permitted to take her to Makalawena Beach, Green Sands Beach, Waipio Valley, or past the Visitor Center at Mauna Kea. You may hire local services to take you to these locations in a 4x4 vehicle. The van is equipped with a GPS that will alert us if she is in any of these locations, at which point you will be fined $1,000 in addition to the cost of any damage to the vehicle (which there undoubtedly will be, assuming you are even able to get the van back to the road, which you will not).

We had a fantastic time renting Shirley the van from Bri for our Big Island tour! It was comfortable, came with everything we needed, and the resources Bri shared made our trip easy and enjoyable. Highly recommend and can't wait to book again!

Bri was an amazing host. She was able to accommodate us last minute and provided us everything we needed and more. Bri is very responsive and organized. I would highly recommend her as a host and would 100% rent from her again. If you are looking at other rentals, look no further. Seriously, the van was great and Bri made the experience so smooth.
