About Jake Gibbs
Aloha! My name is Jake, and I have had a passion for VanLife since I lived in my first van when I was 19 years old! I lived in a Sprinter for over 2 years while undertaking school and travelled across the US and Canada in my spare time! I since sold that van, built an improved version, sold that one, and recently finished my third dream van "Da Maui Nene" as the ultimate rental van specifically designed to be enjoyed on Maui! Besides having a van rental, I love going to the beach, surfing, hiking, and cooking. I am also gym owner and fitness enthusiast, training for my 2nd ironman this year!

We traveled very comfortably and safely with the van, it had everything we needed to have a great trip. Jake's attention was excellent.

Jake was an amazing host and the van was awesome! The van was easy to drive and was super comfortable. We drove the road to Hana and up Haleakala no problem. Everything we needed was in there and it was convenient to have coffee and cooking stuff wherever we went. Having hot coffee and breakfast right after sunrise at Haleakala was so nice. Jake was very communicative and made sure we knew of some cosmetic dings before confirming the booking. He did a walkthrough with us when we picked up and also gave us some great dining recommendations. Can't recommend this van enough!

Jake was very helpful and responded to any questions I had quickly. The van was very nice and clean. It was the perfect van to explore Maui and had everything we needed!

If you’re thinking about van camping on Maui, Da Maui Nene is an amazing option! Jake has custom built the interior of this Sprinter van to meet your every need while traveling the island. He thought of everything to make the van comfortable, safe, and convenient, and his workmanship was done to the highest quality. It’s also a beautiful living environment! I spent 6 nights traveling the Road to Hana, around the south end of the island, up to Mount Haleakalā, to the western shore of the island. Da Maui Nene handled it all with ease. For such a large van, it handles surprisingly well even on the extremely windy Road to Hana (take it slow!). My favorite aspects of the van were the super comfy bed (big enough for 2 average-sized humans), spacious kitchen and all of the provided cooking gear (including single-burner propane cooktop), sink with 30 gallon fresh water tank, clever interior toilet setup, and for nighttime, easy-up window blackout shades with magnets. Jake is an excellent host, communicative and helpful with recommendations. Enjoy your trip to beautiful Maui!
