Most travelers were very happy with Rent.is over the past year, often praising the vans, equipment and support when issues came up. A few guests had more mixed experiences, mainly around service and vehicle prep.
- • People liked the comfortable, well‑equipped campers, smooth driving and helpful staff and emergency assistance, saying it was an easy and flexible way to see Iceland.
- • Some mentioned long or awkward shuttle waits, occasional missing or dirty equipment, and a few issues with tires, heaters or doors, so it’s worth double‑checking the van and extras at pickup.

"Got upgraded to VW California. Older car with many scratches and the engine light on 😅. But worked flawlessly. Rent.is staff friendly and helpfull. Chances are, your first coversation on Iceland will take place on airport. To rent.is shuttle driver. What a chatty and smiley true Icelandier sweetheart he is ♥️."

"compact but sufficient. biggest downside: no way to open sliding door or the back door from within the cabin, the bunks block the access to the latch. complicates getting in and out considerably. regardless, for what it is, it’s a great package, drives well, good fuel efficiency, driver aids like sign recognition, cruise control and lane assist are truly useful on long distances when most of the time you’re looking at other things besides the road. the heating also turned out to be a necessity this time of year. anything less than this fiat would be burdensome. a step up to a van might be even better in terms of ergonomics, but having to juggle equipment so much. but this is the value packed starting option that i’d recommend to most as a starting point at least."

"Our RV was changed to a Lux 600. This car was older than what we specifically reserved. We called out multiple maintenance issues including kitchen faucett being broken, engine and oil change lights being on. We believe because the RV reserved was specifically year 2025 or newer, our price should be adjusted."

"Everything was pretty good! The vehicle was missing two camping chairs (4x promised, only 2x in vehicle), camping fuel was very low, we were given two mostly empty fuel bottles and not able to even boil water on 2 of the 5 days of the trip. Also, tire pressure was low at pickup (warning light on) and we had to air up the tires our first day."

"Overall the Benivan was good, but there was a major problem with the toilet and waste management. The toilet would not close with the handle and the side. BUT a bigger problem was that the toilet LEAKED urine onto the floor inside the van. We emptied the black water waste and reattached it, but had no luck. It leaked each day."

"Easy to rent and and the Fiat Doblo Maxi was perfect for my 4 days stopover in Iceland! Had everything I needed."

"The vehicle was new and in excellent condition, and the bedding and tableware were very clean. The staff provided great service, making the pickup and return process smooth and hassle-free. One thing that would have improved the experience is having cookware compatible with the induction cooktop; while there is a gas stove available to use instead, its heat output is quite weak. This caused significant inconvenience when cooking at campsites that only offered induction cooktops."
