The rental company
Camper Sardegna, a rental company based on the island
Camper Sardegna is a Sardinian rental company: you pick up the vehicle directly on the island, with no ferry crossing in a motorhome. Its depot, listed under Olbia on CoolDrive, is actually in Porto San Paolo, a coastal village south of Olbia, facing the island of Tavolara. Olbia’s port and airport are therefore a short distance away, and both the Costa Smeralda and the La Maddalena archipelago can be reached on the very first day.
The page presents ten models, all with manual gearboxes: converted panel vans (Furgonato) for two or four people, low-profiles (Semi Integrale, B-class) for five or six, and overcabs (Mansardato, C-class) with six berths. No offers from this rental company were observed by CoolDrive in October 2026: mileage, excess and rate can be read in each offer.
Our verdict: a practical solution for anyone arriving in Olbia by plane or boat who wants to devote their whole stay to Sardinia, from the coves of Gallura to the mountains of the Gennargentu. Points to bear in mind: a single departure point, and therefore a return to Porto San Paolo, no automatic gearboxes and very high demand in July and August.

Our view
Camper Sardegna: who is it for, and who should look elsewhere?
Camper Sardegna is ideal if…
- You are arriving in Olbia by plane or ferry and want to set off without wasting time
- You are devoting your whole trip to Sardinia
- You are travelling as a family or as six and need enough berths
- You are torn between a manoeuvrable panel van and a roomier motorhome
Camper Sardegna is not ideal if…
- You only drive automatics
- You want to arrive in the south of the island and return the vehicle in Cagliari
- You are leaving in August without having booked well in advance
- You are combining Sardinia with mainland Italy or Corsica
- You want to compare rates already observed before choosing
Practical tips
Our tips for booking with Camper Sardegna
-
Make the most of the lack of tolls
Sardinia has no toll motorways: the main dual carriageways, such as the SS131 between Sassari and Cagliari, are free. Your road budget is therefore limited to fuel, which makes a full tour of the island more affordable than a route on the mainland.
-
Take your time on the Orientale Sarda
The SS125 road, between Orosei, Dorgali and Baunei, is one of the most beautiful on the island, but it is a succession of bends and climbs. With a low-profile or an overcab, drive by day, allow generous time margins and save the panel vans for detours to the coves.
-
Plan your nights before the summer
Many municipalities on the Sardinian coast restrict overnight parking for motorhomes, especially in high season. Aim for campsites and the aree di sosta provided for leisure vehicles, and check the local signage before stopping to sleep near a beach.
-
Aim for spring or September
In July and especially around Ferragosto, in mid-August, roads, beaches and campsites are full. May, June and September offer a sea that is already or still warm and quieter roads. If you are travelling in high summer, book the vehicle and the first nights very early.
-
Carry out a full check-out inspection in Porto San Paolo
At departure, walk round the vehicle with the rental company and have every mark noted on the contract. Check the kitchen and bedding inventory, the gas level and that the water works, then save the assistance number: the interior of the island can be far from everything.
What travellers ask
Your questions about Camper Sardegna
How much does a Camper Sardegna hire cost?
No Camper Sardegna rates appear in CoolDrive’s October 2026 surveys: we prefer not to suggest an amount. Prices vary a great deal in Sardinia between spring and the height of summer. Run a search departing from Olbia with your dates: each offer shows the total, including compulsory fees, with the mileage and the excess.
Where is the Camper Sardegna depot?
It is listed under Olbia on CoolDrive, but the exact address is in Porto San Paolo, Traversa di via Limbara, in the municipality of Loiri Porto San Paolo. This coastal village faces the island of Tavolara, south of Olbia. To get there from the port or the airport, agree the pick-up time and the transfer with the rental company.
Which Camper Sardegna model should you choose?
For two, a Furgonato 2 Pax goes anywhere, from village lanes to roads down to the coves. The Furgonato 4 Pax sleeps four people in a panel-van footprint. For five or six, the Semi Integrale low-profiles or the Mansardato overcabs give more living space. All models presented have a manual gearbox: check the dimensions in each offer.
What itinerary should you follow in Sardinia from Olbia?
In the north, the Costa Smeralda, Palau and the La Maddalena archipelago. Then the east coast via the Orientale Sarda to the Gulf of Orosei and Cala Gonone. In the south, Cagliari and the ancient site of Nora; in the west, Oristano, the Sinis Peninsula and Alghero. The centre holds the nuraghi and the peaks of the Gennargentu. Allow two weeks for a full tour.
Do you need to take a ferry with a Camper Sardegna motorhome?
No: the vehicle is collected on the island, which saves the cost and time of a crossing with a motorhome from Genoa, Livorno, Civitavecchia or France. You arrive in Olbia by plane or as a foot passenger on the ferry, then set off from Porto San Paolo. To leave the island, read the terms of the offer before booking.

Frequently asked questions
FAQ — Camper Sardegna motorhome hire in Italy
Why book Camper Sardegna with CoolDrive?
Our search engine puts Camper Sardegna side by side with the other rental companies present in Italy and shows each one’s final amount, which already includes compulsory fees. The mileage, excess and security deposit are visible before payment. A team of experts helps you prepare your arrival in Olbia and your route around the island, then remains reachable during the trip.
What is the excess at Camper Sardegna?
Our October 2026 surveys include no offers from this rental company: the amount of the excess and that of the security deposit are specified in each offer. Read them before paying and check that your card can cover the deposit. Our experts will tell you whether a package can reduce the amount payable in the event of damage.
Can you return the motorhome somewhere other than Porto San Paolo?
Camper Sardegna has only one departure point listed: plan your trip as a loop, returning to the north-east of the island. The search engine automatically filters the offers if you enter a different drop-off location. From Cagliari or Alghero, keep a day’s drive in hand to get back to Olbia.
Are Camper Sardegna motorhomes automatic?
No, the ten models presented on the page have a manual gearbox, from the small panel van to the six-seater overcab. If you only drive automatics, look at the offers from other rental companies in Italy: in our surveys, Anywhere Campers offers several automatic models. Check the transmission in each vehicle’s details before booking.
Can you sleep anywhere in a motorhome in Sardinia?
No. Many coastal municipalities restrict overnight parking for motorhomes, particularly in summer and near protected beaches. Choose campsites and dedicated parking areas, which are plentiful along the coasts. In natural parks, such as La Maddalena, follow the access rules and leave no trace of your visit.
What documents do you need to drive in Sardinia?
A driving licence valid for the vehicle’s category, generally a category B licence up to 3.5 tonnes. Depending on the country that issued your licence, an international driving permit may be required in Italy. The minimum age and length of licence required by the rental company appear in each offer, along with the documents to present at pick-up.
