Reviews from Yescapa Community

We had an amazing experience renting this camper van in Tenerife! Everything was perfect from start to finish. Roberto is incredibly helpful, welcoming, and kind. He had everything ready for us and shared fantastic recommendations for places to visit, eat, and sleep. The van itself is perfect and fully equipped with everything you need to enjoy your days exploring the island. The overall experience was super smooth and enjoyable, and we felt really lucky to have booked with Roberto. We 100% recommend this van, it was ideal for us and made our Tenerife trip unforgettable!

At first, the pick-up location was difficult to find, as it was situated in a large shopping centre parking lot. Communication with the host was challenging, as they only spoke English via Google Translate. For a first-time renter, this might be an unexpected since explanations and necessary instructions might be insufficient and sometimes unclear. From the outside, the vehicle looked fine except few minor faults. Inside, however, it became apparent that the camper had undergone several rushed repairs. There appeared to have been damage to a side door, and the repair was not airtight, causing noticeable outside noise while driving. The door could not be opened from the inside, as the handle was broken, and the owner provided us with pliers to use during our 10-day trip. Additionally, the rear right luggage hatch did not open, although we were able to access the space from the other side and from inside the vehicle. Throughout the interior, there were visible signs of quick fixes: sofa cushions screwed into place but already coming loose again, screw holes and tape marks in several areas. The shower door could not be opened from the inside. The ladder to the rear bed had a broken top step. Some blinds did not function at all, while others were clearly close to breaking. The lower rear bed was very uncomfortable and sagging. On a positive note, the living area was equipped with all essential items we needed, including basics such as salt and pepper. However, it was unclear why a 5-litre pot was provided when there was only one soup plate. While the above issues were relatively minor, the main source of stress during our trip was the heating system and hot water. The water system only worked if turned on and used immediately, and then switched off right away. On one occasion, when it was left on for 15–20 minutes, the hot water pipe burst. According to the owner, this is something that typically happens if hot water is left on for too long. If 15–20 minutes is considered “too long”, this seems highly unusual. Because of this, we also used the gas stove as little as possible and always turned it off immediately after use. The heating system caused further issues. In early January, nights in the Canary Islands can be quite cool, so additional heating is necessary. Unfortunately, one morning when we turned on the gas heating, the same hot water pipe burst again. This gave the impression that something in the system was not functioning correctly, as we were following the owner’s instructions. Both incidents occurred while we were staying on neighbouring islands. The vehicle is equipped with a tracking device, allowing the owner to monitor your location and driving behaviour. On the positive side, the vehicle had sufficient power for driving in mountainous areas, and the reversing camera was a helpful feature (although in bright sunlight the screen was often difficult to see). Fuel consumption was relatively high. Overall, we were generally satisfied with the trip and the experience. This was our first time renting a vehicle on Yescapa from a private owner, and while the journey itself was enjoyable, the technical issues and level of uncertainty made the experience more demanding than expected. In the future, we would likely prefer to rent a campervan directly from a professional camper rental company rather than from a private individual.

Nuestra experiencia ha sido muy positiva en todos los sentidos. Sergio es una persona muy atenta y cercana, resolvió todas nuestras dudas antes de la reserva y durante el check-in nos explicó con calma todo el funcionamiento de la camper, lo que se agradece mucho. Ha sido un placer tratar con él. Además, ha sido nuestra primera experiencia en camper y no podía haber sido mejor. Fuimos en pareja con nuestro perrito y estuvimos comodísimos. La camper está muy bien equipada, con todo lo necesario para salir unos días y desconectar, y es completamente autosuficiente. Para nosotros, otro punto muy a favor es que admitan perros. En general, estamos muy muy contentos con la experiencia y sin duda repetiremos.

We had an amazing experience renting this camper van. Everything was perfect. Elizabeth is very easy to communicate with and was kind enough to pick us up from the ferry station and drop us off there as well, which made everything very convenient. We had the best weekend. The camper was very clean and well maintained. I am 2 meters tall, and there was still plenty of space to sleep comfortably, which was a big plus. The camper had everything we needed — fully equipped for preparing food, taking a shower, and living comfortably. I would definitely recommend this camper and would rent it again.

Great experience

The camper was very clean and in very good condition, just like in the pictures. Everything worked well. Elizabeth was a very nice host who gave us good tips for the trip and helped us out when we had questions. Communication was quick and easy. The refund of the deposit was quick. The sleeping area for two people was very comfortable in terms of width. We would highly recommend the camper!

Cemil was a friendly and honest host who answered all our questions promptly. Communication was smooth and reassuring throughout the rental process, and everything was exactly as described. I would highly recommend Cemil to anyone looking to rent an RV with confidence.

all good all aboard! , perfect van, perfect owner! good luck, keep in touch! all the best from România!

We spend very nice time traveling in Luis’ camper. It’s fully equipped (pans, glasses, cutlery, plates, copping board, mokka …), although we could use bigger mugs for coffee. In the camper you can also find same board games or flash lights. You can even enjoy eating outside using foldable table and chairs, as well as sun umbrella. Camper has a lot of space inside and it is nice to drive aroud the island. Luis is a very friendly host. We recommend!!!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great campervan rental in Gran Canaria! The van was clean, comfortable, and fully equipped. Easy pickup and return, and an amazing way to explore the island. Highly recommended! 🚐🌴 Angela and Manuel were amazing — very kind, professional, and always ready to help. They made the whole experience easy and enjoyable. 🙂

The vehicle was perfect for my winter trip in northern Tuscany. Excellent heating, comfortable bed, hot shower, practical kitchen, and the vehicle is in great mechanical condition. David is a friendly, flexible, and very responsive owner. Highly recommended.

Very friendly and helpful owners, nice van!

Accomodating host, available and always willing to share. I recommand !

The camper is beautifully designed inside. Everything is very well thought out — the layout of the cabinets, the way they open, the kitchen area, and the shower are all extremely functional. The interior is aesthetic, comfortable, and very pleasant to stay in. A comfortable bed and hot water complete the experience. From the outside, the vehicle doesn’t look perfect, but for us it didn’t matter at all. The camper performed great on steep and winding roads, especially on the way to Masca and Teide. Julio and Maria are very kind and helpful people. We received all the information and support we needed. In a challenging situation, Julio acted very professionally and made sure we didn’t feel stressed during our vacation. We highly recommend them and hope we’ll be able to rent their camper again in the future!

Everything went according to plan. Adan was correct and on time

Everything was perfect! We absolutely loved the experience! We spent three days exploring Tenerife, and it was truly exceptional. The van was perfect for our trip and made traveling around the island incredibly comfortable and fun. The hosts were extremely kind, friendly, and always willing to help with any questions or requests. Everything was smooth and easy from start to finish. If we ever return to Tenerife, we would definitely rent from them again. Highly recommended! 10/10

Great experience with Camilla and her husband. They have been very kind and helpful, brought the van to the airport and we could easily give it back there too. The van has been in good shape, well equipped and clean. Highly recommended.

The van is as described, inclusive of the necessary features for camping and driving around the island. The converted bed is surprisingly really comfortable!! We are a couple and we both fit comfortably and slept really well the whole trip. We drove the van around Tenerife, through parks and around to the beach towns, and the ride was very smooth. The car is 2005 model I believe, so not new, but totally functional and comfortable. It was well equipped and I would rent it again. The hosts were accommodating and kind. Thanks for this experience!

Tout genial avec ces locataires : arrangeants, sympas et respectueux. Que demander de plus ?
