We had a great time, the communication with Javi was excellent, he replied to any question we had and was very kind with problems we encountered. The van is in good shape and we will definitely consider it on our next trip.

Great experience. The vehicle is old but works just fine and has literally everything you need (fridge, toilet, shower, gas cooker, etc.). Thanks again for providing this pleasant experience!

We absoutely loved our trip in Maya. We had her for 5 nights whilst we did a tour of the devon & cornwall coast. Having a fully equipt kitchen & the shower was brilliant and it was surprisingly easy to go off grid too, which we did for a few nights. Every small detail has been thought of, down to the shower gel & shampoo, to the wine glasses & thermal mugs. It was our first experience with a campervan like Maya and we are defintely van converts now! Its a cute and cosy (and not that small!) home on wheels, with all home comforts included. Kate the owner of Maya was super helpful and freindly, and accomdated our every need. The pickup & drop off process was super seamless, and you can tell the love and passion Kate has for her buisness of OTBT vans. We had so many people admiring the beautiful van! Even though our trip was close to perfect its useful to mention that the bed in the van isn't full length, so both me and my partner had to sleep with our legs curled up everynight, which wasn't ideal as we had the van for 5 nights. But I would like to point out that apart from that we both had some of the best nights sleep we've ever had and the mattress was super comfortable too. The perfectlly placed sun roof above the bed is great for the hot summer nights, we slept it with open every night and got to look at the stars as a bonus! Also the van doesn't come with a toilet unless specifically requested, so bear this in mind if booking.

The campervan itself was amazing, gave us everything we needed for a dream vacation. However, the owner wasn't very clear about the condition the van should return in, which seems like a trick to get more money out of you when you return it.

We had an incredible time with the van. It had everything that we needed. The solar shower was one of the coolest things. It worked on pressure so could get a pretty good shower after a day at the beach. The secondary battery meant that we could keep cool beers in the fridge, use the fan to cool down the van and charge our accessories. Juan was very busy working while we were renting but he tried his very best to get back to us as fast as possible and gave us lots of great recommendations. I highly recommend renting the Sup board nad maybe the skim board for exploring the coast of the Algarve and playing in the waves. The camper interior is beautifully decorated with wood and has a rustic feel to it. There are many hooks that can be used to hang items of clothing etc which is very useful. Storage is also great so no need to worry about finding a place for your things. Overall we had a fantastic time and really couldn't fault anything, the value was also exceptional. Juan is genuinely a really great guy and we hope to meet him again. After the trip we're inspired to buy and design our own camper van so we can travel Europe that way we want. Steve & Mel 👊🏻

We had a great experience with the van, and it has all equipment you need for great holidays. The support from the owners was also great at all times. You can't go wrong with them! Thanks a million!

Couldn't recommend Antonio more. He and Elena and family showed such kindness to both of us, giving us a ride from the airport to Verbania, letting us stay an extra night in the van for free, with a free breakfast... And even after unfortunately there was some damage done to the van, Antonio was always around to give advice and assistance, and even let me stay in his spare apartment for free. Their kindness has been inspirational, and they are some of the best people I have ever met. Rent this camper!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent trip. This motorhome made me want to buy one! The owners are the most humble and flexible guys ever. They deserve 5 stars for sure. The motorhome was immaculate and everything worked like a charm. Highly recommended!

Miss Peanut was such a great companion for our trip! She was really cute, comfortable, and reliable. We drove her around Portugal for over 700kms without any issues. The gearbox takes a little getting used to but that could have just been my own experience. Ronato and Samanta were really friendly and responsive. You can tell they put a lot of love into Miss Peanut and making sure that you have everything that you need. I'd rent her again in a heartbeat!

Couldn't have been better! First of all the car is perfect for the Italian roads. It's large enough to comfortably fit two people but small enough to drive anywhere! We took it to the Amalfi coast where a normal camper van would've been impossible to drive, but with Long John we could explore all the bits and pieces of the coast. The interior is custom made, super charming and well built. We were prepared to have to do some shopping before our trip but everything was included from fresh sheets to cleaning supplies and camping chairs/table. Valerio (the owner) provided a 5/5 star service and always went the extra mile to make our journey unforgettable. He responded to texts within minutes and provided us with some amazing tips about local restuarants. This is so much better than a rental agency! Thank you for this trip and we would be happy to return!

Not happy, they returned the motorhome with broken awning and dents at the side.

We had the absolute best 5 nights in This vehicle! It has everything we needed - very easy to set up and pack down and very comfortable to sleep in. Great for exploring little Portuguese towns as the streets can get very narrow. Really lovely hosts, they even drove us to the airport when we dropped the car back to them. Thanks so so much! Highly recommended!

We had a great experience during the time that we rented this campervan. We travelled along the Costa Brava and were able to handle the roads there with ease. It runs smoothly to drive, the AC works well (was needed at times) and though the car radio has no Bluetooth, all the important things work fine. The folding camping table of the camper wasn't great, but we let the owner know at the end and he said it would be replaced ASAP. The owner Xavier was very communicative and helpful. All in all we were very happy with the vehicle and would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to explore the regions around Barcelona or even further away.

Thank you Joao for letting us have your motorhome for our little Portugal experience! 🙌🏼 It was our very first rental, we came as a couple, joined by a friend for a few days as well, and it just made us want to live the experience again on a future holiday, this next time as a family with our children! Joao answers all questions, he is very available if any little thing. We arrived by train in Santarém and he picked us up from the train station to his motorhome in Almeirim. We felt welcomed with ease, extra care and very efficiently despite his busy schedule. 👍🏼 The motorhome was clean, everything was in order and super functional. The french bed is comfortable, we slept well in it. We cpuld have nice little breakfasts, could do a little cooking and had great use of the fridge and mini freezer during this extremely hot summer period!! We came back very happy and satisfied of this experience. 😁😄 Thank you also to the Yescapa team! We had a first rental that had been confirmed and then had to be cancelled for unfortunate reasons by the owner. It got us stressed, however we managed to find a new rental (Joao's) that fitted our needs and a number of mails with the great Yescapa team made all the payment transfers work out perfectly well ! Thank you so much for the patience and kind messages! 👍🏼 Very satisfied with this first Yescapa experience!
