About Stephanie Buxbaum's RV rentals
I live in Kauai and have run vans here on Hawaii and in California for 10 years; I am a former Nat Geo producer who loves to travel the world and see all the glorious gifts nature has to offer by getting off the grid in Alaska, Kauai, Bali, Australia and more! I enjoy SCUBA, hiking and of course camping in California and Kauai...I own and operate a Dodge Ram Van custom painted by famous surf board / van mural artist Drew Brophy.

Amazing Pick-Up Rental ! Made Our Trip Unforgettable!We had an incredible experience renting this well equipped pick-up! It was thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed, cooking essentials, cozy camping gear, and smart storage that kept everything organized.The layout was practical and comfortable, making it easy to relax, cook, and sleep. The best part? We woke up to stunning ocean views right from our camping tent, truly unforgettable.On top of that, Stephanie, the owner, was absolutely amazing, kind, dedicated, and incredibly helpful. She gave us great recommendations, and whenever we had a question, she responded immediately with all the details we needed.If you’re looking for an amazing trip, well-equipped, comfortable pick-up and an outstanding rental experience, this one is perfect.Highly recommend!

Stephanie was so great. We had a medical issue that made us cancel and she helped so much to make sure we were taken care of and return vehicle and get as much of our money back in the return of the vehicle.

We loved our time in Kauai and Steph was awesome. She showed great thought and care. Communicated well, provided well stocked camping gear - loved attention to detail. Would recommend a tarp for further water proofing on the tent. Otherwise highly recommend!

The car was great. Stephanie is a wonderful host and gave us good suggestions. The car is practically furnished and has everything you need for camping.However, it is very challenging to camp on the island itself if you are traveling spontaneously. Approvals and reservations are needed everywhere, but these are only processed within 24 hours or longer. Most government campgrounds aren't really safe, and we didn't feel comfortable.
We can recommend Anini Beach and Kumu Camp (as Stephanie advised us. However, we didn't know that the other places are even a bit dangerous for two women alone - this knowledge would have helped us with the choice)Natur in Kauai is beautiful. But it is better to plan everything cause also for some Hikes and going into Parks you need some permits/reservations.

LIZ was fantastic and so easy-going and sweet. She was communicative and returned the truck right on time. I would rent to her again in a heartbeat...

Hi All, this Campervan was so much fun! We did find different places to stay in Kauai. Each day we had different excursions that we were able to afford since we were saving money on a hotel room. Then at night we would travel to the next days excursion sight and stay somewhere nearby there. If all else fails we stayed in the parking lot of the US Coast Guard office in Kauai, at 3070 Waapa Rd A, Lihue, HI 96766. Here people were sleeping on the boats so lots of cars had people in them too. Either way you had to be a little creative and you had no issues finding a place to sleep.
Stephanie was kind and explained all the in's and out's of the vehicle to us. We also ate at some neat food joints. I can't wait to visit this island again and stay in the Napali one more time. My girlfriend and I loved it!
