Furgoneta camper de Paulo

Les propriétaires étaient trés sympathiques et disponibles. Nous avons pu vivre une expérience inoubliable de vanlife. Nous recommandons sans hésiter. 

Great car and generally good experience with the trip and Ophelia team management.

We took a car for a little trip around – from Lisbon to Porto and back with some smaller cities visited along the way. The car was spacious and accommodating . Some thing are well-thought out and are done so that intuitive is good enough. Like expanding cooking space and good lighting system with some smaller led light just for the night if needed. Car is very pleasant to look at and easy to find this watermelon in the crowded parking.

I really wish there was a little bit more room for your belongings storage. Chairs and table take most of the underneath the bed space . Our bags were therefore placed right in the middle , which made them roll during driving. I also would recommend owners to consider some form of online deposit as carrying it around in cash was not the safest option.

 

That said , everything was returned as given , no problems on the way for us :)  Our experience was very positive. Team was always on the chat and easily available in case needed.  

We had a really great time in Portugal with Ophelia!!
Here's a detailed review:

• We really appreciated:

1.  The owners are super friendly and make the experience very easy. They're trustworthy and helpful. They came to meet us near the airport with gifts and smiles. 
2. Ophelia is a very beautiful van, super easy to drive/park. 
3. Inside the van, the temperature is always good. It's never too hot, nor cold. (We were in Portugal in Winter time, November).
4. The bed is comfortable and the linen too. I'm 180cm tall, and my girlfriend is 157cm. We had more than enough room to sleep, watch a movie etc... 
5. The curtains are efficient, they keep the warmth inside, and block the lights in the morning. 
6. The 4 USB plugs are so powerful and charged our phones quickly.
7. The outside table and chairs are easy to pop out and set up.

• We noticed:

1. The sliding door doesn't always lock, or stays locked when the doors are open/closed. It was the only annoying aspect. On our first day, we parked Ophelia and spent the day at the beach, locked the doors as we walked away. When we came back, all doors were closed but the sliding door. We were lucky no one tried to sneak in. So, keep in mind that you'll have to double-check every time, and often operate that door manually from the inside (may takes a few attempts). 
2. The inside table is not the most functional as it is pretty wobbly and blocks the cupboards on the floor when set up. 
3. The power plug won't charge your Laptops. You'll need a USB-C/USB cable.

General Feedback: Awesome! I really recommend Ophelia to anyone willing to explore Portugal, you won't regret it. Just be aware that you will have to adapt and work as a team for the daily tasks, but after the first day, you won't regret it. Also, keep in mind that once the bed is set, you can't open the fridge, and you might want to pop the toilets out of the compartment beforehand. Personally I did all my 1 and 2 outside in the wild digging holes (never leave your paper out!!). 

Simply put, GO FOR IT!!! 

Merveilleux de tous point de vue !

Gostámos bastante da atenção dos proprietários, sempre disponíveis. Correu tudo bem com a Ophelia, bastante confortável e fácil de conduzir.

A Ophelia team foo 5 estrelas. Recebemos todo o apoio que precisamos.

Cama muito confortável e facil de montar e desmontar.

Mesa interior muto util para dias de chuva, que apanhamos ou ate mesno para o nosso pequeno Rafael fazer os seus desenhos.

 

Notre séjour avec Ophelia était parfait. Les propriétaires sont très sympas et font le maximum pour que votre séjour se passe bien: une vidéo explicative avant le départ, et des échanges Whatsapp pour vérifier que tout se passe bien pendant la location. Nous avons pu dormir dans des endroits magnifiques, Ophelia peut aller n'importe où! Nous recommandons vivement ce van.

Ophelia is a great van ! Very handy, greatly arranged, comfy, easy to drive... It was a great experience with her !

And what to say about her owners, the Ophelia team... Incredible people, nice, kind, warm, welcoming, very comprehensive, and I certainly forgot a lot more good things about them.

Don't hesitate one second : Ophelia will make you have a great time with her  :)

Buenísima experiencia! Todo muy bien, la comunicación y el trato, la furgoneta es nueva y se nota, se conduce muy bien. Lo mejor para mi fue lo limpísimo y cuidado que estaba todo, algo que agradecí especialmente en lo relativo a la ropa de cama

Super voyage en compagnie d'Ophélia. La team nous a accompagné tout au long du voyage pour demander des nouvelles et s'assurer qu'on avait pas de difficulté avec le van. Van propre et bien équipé, petit mais fonctionnel pour 2 personnes. Il permet d'accéder à des endroits où les véhicules plus gros n'ont pas accès. Fonctionne à l'énergie solaire et permet son autonomie électrique. Nous avons eu un problème avec la tonnelle (n'empêchant pas son bon fonctionnement) lié à des précédents locataires et la team ophelia n'a pas remis notre parole en question sur le fait que ce ne soit pas nous. Je recommande si vous voulez vous faire un petit trip sympa !! 

Very lovely trip with Ophelia! The car drives really good and the interior is well thought out. Getting the bed ready goes relatively quick and sleeping is comfortable. All In all everything you need for a road trip is there!

Also thanks to the team behind the car, always available to help and quick to answer.

super trip 5/5 would definitely reccomend to others!

From start to finish, our rental experience with the Ophelia team was incredible. They couldn't have been more helpful/ flexible to make sure that we were well looked after. The van is a joy to drive, kitted out with everything you could possibly need and SO comfy to sleep in. 

If we are ever in the area again and on the hunt for a campervan we will definitely be back in touch. Couldn't reccomend more! 

 

The van is super equipped with all the necessary and more. Paulo and his team were available at all times and were super helpful with problems. Unfortunately the tap did not work but we were given another solution.

Me and my boyfriend just had our first van experience and we are so lucky it was with Ophelia. Ophelia looks exactly like the photos and as you go along the way you discover she is even better than the photos. The van has everything you need and everything is super functional and easy to use. Ophelia team is amazing, even more than we could expect. They were always available and they are really easy to deal with. Everything went so well we still don't believe it. We highly recommend it, it was honestly one of the best experiences we had and Ophelia was without a doubt the right one for it. Team Ophelia, thank you very much! 

consigliatissimo a tutti, io e la mia ragazza lo abbiamo noleggiato per 4 giorni ed è stata un esperienza favolosa, mi sembrava quasi di sognare! Il van di Paulo è perfetto per viaggiare in coppia, ha uno stile pazzesco, super equipaggiato e dotato di molti accessori. Vi dico che è un super compagno di viaggio e possiede tutto ciò che ti sarà necessario per viviere giorni e giorni immerso nella natura. Noi abbiamo visitato tutta la costa vicentina e parte dell algarve fino a lagos e la grotta di benagil! è stato davvero figo! Lo rifarei altre 100 volte. Paulo è sempre stato gentile e disponibile e ha risolto ogni mio dubbio/problema durante il viaggio. non ve lo fate scappare! highly recommended to you all: my girlfriend and i rented it for 4 days, we had pretty good time! it was such a dream! Paulo's Van is perfect lived by a couple, his design is crazy, fitted with any kind of tools and details. It will be your best travelling companion giving you all the stuffs you will need to live throught portugal days by days. we traveled along costa vicentina then through the South till Benagil caves in Lagos! it was simply amazing! I would do it 100 times again! Paulo was very kind in resolving all my doubts during my journey. don t let this van gone to others, grab him! lo recomiendo a todo el mundo: yo y mi chica lo cogimos en Lisbon para los 4 dias siguientes y fue de puta madre! como si estuvieramos soñando! La caravana de Paulo està perfecta para viajar en pareja, muy hermosa, equipada de muchos accesorios. El mejor compañero de viaje de tu vida, lleva todo lo que necesitarás para vivir días en la naturaleza. nosotros viajamos desde Lisboa hacía Lagos en el sur, visitando la costa vicentina y algarve hasta la gruta de Benagil. Fuimos muy divertidos. Paulo fue amable y nos ayudó en todo lo que yo necesitábamos. No se lo dejes a otros! cogedlo por vuestra aventura!

Amazing vacation with Ophelia!!! it's a joy to go around with her. Clean inside and outside, it has all you need and it's very comfy and cozy! 

I must say that Ophelia team was a very pleasant to deal with, communication went well and accurate, they took their time to show and explain all the things, and they were available during our trip if might something happen. Handing over and returning the van was hassle free and based on mutual trust.

We would certainly recommend Ophelia!

Os 10 dias de experiência com a Ophelia foram fantásticos. Um casal, uma super cadela, uma carrinha e toda a liberdade do mundo - é a descrição perfeita. A Ophelia vem equipada com o essencial e ainda uns miminhos extra. A equipa sempre pronta para ajudar na resolução de imprevistos que ficam para contar histórias, nunca nos falharam, extremamente amáveis e disponíveis. Recomendamos 100%!! Condução agradável. Materiais cuidados. Limpeza 5*.

Vacanza stupenda in giro per il Portogallo. Ophelia è un van davvero comodo sia da guidare che da vivere. Dotato di ogni confort è stato attrezzato di tutto e curato in ogni minimo dettaglio. Paulo e la moglie sono stati gentilissimi e sempre pronti a darci una mano in caso di imprevisti. Quindi se scegliete Ophelia viaggierete sereni e vi godrete una stupenda vacanza. Grazie ancora Ophelia team!!!

Aluguei a Ophelia para uma viagem com a minha namorada e adorámos. A experiência de viajar numa carrinha transformada é sinónimo de liberdade. Quando feita com a Ophelia é também sinónimo de segurança. A remodelação está feita com imenso bom gosto e o material utilizado é de qualidade. Vem com todos os acessórios indispensáveis para uma experiência e viagem confortáveis. Temos igualmente de enaltecer o nível elevadíssimo de limpeza com que recebemos a Ophelia. Para os mais temerários, acrescento que o veículo tem uma condução óptima mesmo para condutores sem experiência em automóveis semelhantes. A carrinha, por fora, apesar dos seus tons alegres e veraneantes, tem um tamanho razoável, o que facilitou as manobras, ao mesmo tempo que tem a robustez necessária para percorrer caminhos menos alcatroados como se encontram frequentemente na costa portuguesa. No entanto, o espaço está super bem aproveitado e há lugar para todas as malas e comodidades necessárias para a aventura. Conseguimos tirar imensas fotos incríveis que serão o auxílio de memória dos dias alegres que vivemos debaixo deste tecto, que entregamos com saudades. A cereja no topo do bolo foram os responsáveis pelo aluguer da carrinha. Só temos a agradecer ao Paulo, à Ângela e à Débora a disponibilidade para resolver todas as dúvidas e a amabilidade com que sempre comunicamos. Obrigado por tudo e esperamos voltar a viajar com a Ophelia em breve!

The Van is simply great and equipped with everything you could need. Big thanks to the Ophelia Team for their kidness and for the amazing experience.
