The Story behind CREW AWAY
Built on the Gold Coast. Ready for Anywhere!
ABOUT US
At Crew Away Campers, we believe that adventure isn’t something you wait for — it’s something you drive toward. Based on the Gold Coast, we design and build tough, reliable campervans that are made to handle Australia’s wildest landscapes — from coastal highways to dusty outback tracks.
Every van is crafted with purpose: smart layouts, premium materials, rugged functionality, and the freedom to roam wherever the road leads.
We don't just sell campervans — we hand over the keys to a lifestyle built around exploration, independence, and unforgettable memories.
If you're ready to take the long way home, you’re in the right place.
OUR STORY
Where Adventure Meets Craftsmanship
Crew Away was born from a simple but powerful idea — to make owning an adventure-ready campervan easy, affordable, and epic.
Our founder, Ricardo Bordauil, is an adventurer at heart with years of travel experience across Australia and beyond. After building a successful campervan rental business under Live the Dream Campervans since 2014, Ricardo realised travellers wanted something more permanent: their own rugged, ready-to-go van to call home.
That’s when Crew Away shifted gears — moving from rentals to fully-built campervans for sale. Designed for adventurers who don’t just dream about the open road — they live it.
Drawing on lessons from thousands of real-world journeys, Ricardo and the Crew Away team now build and sell high-quality Toyota Hiace campervans, fine-tuned for both comfort and off-grid living.
From insulation and solar setups to custom storage and smart interiors, every build reflects Ricardo’s passion for detail, adventure, and freedom.
