Continuing the thread from our previous post and based on our experience in the sale and rental of motorhomes in Madrid, we’re going to keep explaining the key aspects you should consider to determine whether a caravan better suits your needs or, on the contrary, if a motorhome is what you really need. As you already know, both vehicles are available at our establishment for sale and rental.
As we mentioned when talking about caravans, motorhomes are more expensive because they have an integrated engine that allows them to move independently. Their maintenance is also more costly, as you’ll need to pass vehicle inspections, carry out regular servicing, and replace filters and tires.
One drawback is that you don’t have a separate car to get around the places you visit. However, on the other hand, since you carry your home with you—complete with all its comforts (kitchen, bathroom, sleeping area, etc.)—you can enjoy more spontaneous trips. For example, changing locations is much easier because you don’t have to worry about hotel reservations or anything like that: simply start the engine and head wherever you want on the spot.
If you’re going on vacation with children, they’ll find the journey much more entertaining, as they can play, watch videos, or simply sleep in their beds during the trip.
Another advantage of motorhomes is that they are easier to drive and park than caravans, although you’ll need to find a designated area to stay overnight—something that is becoming increasingly common in cities.
For weekend getaways or short holiday periods, they are the ideal option, offering plenty of comforts in a mobile space. In any case, if our information hasn’t helped you decide between one option or the other, come and see us. At Camperdadi, we’ll be happy to advise you and show you all the available models so you can make the decision that best suits you.
