Motorhome Hire Australia
Motorhome hire is the most comfortable way to see Australia at your own pace — a full home on wheels with a proper bed, kitchen, bathroom and living space, so you can roam from the coast to the outback without ever booking a hotel. CamperCompare puts every major motorhome rental brand in one search, so you can compare live prices, berth sizes and inclusions side by side instead of opening a dozen tabs.
A motorhome (sometimes called an RV or a “motor home”) is the larger, fully self-contained cousin of the campervan. Where a compact 2 berth campervan suits couples travelling light, a motorhome typically sleeps 4 to 6, adds an internal shower and toilet, and gives you room to stand, cook and relax inside — ideal for families and longer trips.
Whether you are planning the Great Ocean Road, a Big Lap of the country, or a fortnight exploring Tasmania, comparing motorhome hire before you book is the single easiest way to save. Rates swing widely by season, brand and how far ahead you book, and CamperCompare surfaces the best live deal for your exact dates.
Who Motorhome Hire Suits
- Families and groups of 4–6 who want beds, a bathroom and living space in one vehicle
- Travellers doing longer trips who value comfort and self-containment over a tight budget
- Anyone wanting an onboard shower and toilet so you can free-camp away from facilities
- Retirees and “grey nomads” touring Australia for weeks or months at a time
Pros
- Sleeps 4–6 with proper beds and internal living space
- Self-contained — onboard shower, toilet, kitchen and water tanks
- Stand-up headroom, heating and more storage than a campervan
- Comfortable for longer trips and cooler seasons
Things to Consider
- Higher daily rates and fuel use than a compact campervan
- Larger to drive and park — some tight campgrounds and city streets are off-limits
- Usually needs a powered site or dump point every few days
Motorhome Hire Prices in Australia
Motorhome hire in Australia typically ranges from around $90/day for a 4 berth in the off-season to $320/day for a premium 6 berth luxury motorhome in peak summer. School holidays and the December–January peak push rates up sharply, while booking early and travelling in the shoulder seasons (autumn and spring) can save 20–40%. One-way hires and relocation deals can be cheaper still.
| Vehicle | Typical Rate |
|---|---|
| 4 berth motorhome (off-peak) | $90–$160/day |
| 4–6 berth motorhome (mid-range) | $150–$240/day |
| Luxury 6 berth motorhome (peak) | $240–$320/day |
