For Your Protection
Personal Injury is covered in most cases through Registration Third Party Insurance. However, we strongly recommend that all people travelling in Australia take out Personal Travel Insurance. maui does not accept any liability for personal injuries sustained during rental.

Whilst "liability cover" insurance can be purchased from a third party* to protect you from cost of any liability in case of damage, it does not directly release you from the liability associated with hiring a maui vehicle.

It is a mandatory requirement for you to accept liability directly with maui by way of a liability deposit to cover the standard liability applicable to the maui vehicle hired.

All vehicles are insured for damage to the vehicle or to the property of a third party. The standard liability option is included in the rental rate and requires a liability deposit of AUD $7,500. This amount is debited to the hirer's credit card at vehicle collection and is refunded (including the 2% credit card fee for Visa or Master Card) at drop-off provided the vehicle is returned undamaged. In the case of vehicle or property damage, part or all of the liability deposit will be retained, however you can seek reimbursement from the third party* from whom you purchased the liability cover insurance.

The liability of AUD $7,500 can be reduced to $0 by purchasing Maui's Liability Reduction Option or the Maui Inclusive Pack.

Liability Reduction Option
Cost per day AUD $46 (max charge AUD $2,300) - Liability reduced to NIL
When the Liability Reduction Option has been purchased, the hirer will not have to pay any liability at all for any damage to the vehicle or property of a Third Party with the exception of the ‘exclusions’. This cover includes unlimited tyres and windscreens, Overhead and Underbody damage to the vehicle plus Single Vehicle accident (excludes single vehicle rollover).

Road Restrictions:

  • Vehicles must not be used on any unsealed road (being a road not sealed with a hard material such as tar, bitumen, or concrete). Off road conditions include, but are not limited to: fire trails, beaches, sand, tracks, fields or paddocks. The only exception to this is reasonable use of access roads limited to a maximum of twelve kilometres in length to recognized commercial campgrounds.

    (a) The Customer acknowledges and agrees to pay to maui a fee of AUD $300 on each occasion that it is identified by maui that a Customer has taken a 2WD Vehicle on an unsealed road or a Restricted Road,
    (b) The AUD $300 fee will be due and payable by immediate deduction from the Customer's credit card.

    (a) adverse road or weather conditions
    (b) the distance to nominated destinations in relation to the length of the hire period; and
    (c) any concerns maui, its employees or agents may have regarding driver experience or ability.

    Maui will advise you on pick-up of any travel restrictions known at that time.

Subject to the change being approved, an additional charge of up to AUD $750 may apply, which will be notified to you at time of approval and is required to be paid immediately via credit card.

Multiple Rentals:
Should a customer have more than one consecutive rental they can be combined to qualify for longer-term hire discounts off the vehicle rate. Consecutive motorhome hires in Australia and New Zealand for Britz, Maui and Mighty can be combined to qualify if the vehicle collection date/s are within a 3-month period.

For all rentals to qualify each booking needs to be made at the same time. If a customer makes another booking at a later time, the new booking can be combined to qualify if the vehicle collection date/s are within a 3-month period however, the original booking/s will only qualify for a discount if the booking/s are not already travelling or travelled. Longer-term discounts must be requested at the time of booking.

If multiple hires are within the same country and total days exceed 50 days, only the maximum charge applicable to the Liability Reduction Option or the All Inclusive option will apply. If combining a vehicle hire with another Maui vehicle that has a more expensive all inclusive option or Liability Reduction maximum cost, the more expensive option is applied. In the instance where a Maui hire is being combined with a Britz or Mighty hire and the packages have the all inclusive supplement, these components cannot be combined to have a maximum charge applied. However, the vehicle rate can have a longer-term discount applied if applicable.

Please note that the Broome and Hobart surcharge in Australia is charged for each individual rental where Broome or Hobart is a component of the booking. If multiple hires total more than 100 days, these rates and terms do not apply. Requests for quotes of more than 100 days should be made with us first by email or phone. Vehicle security deposits can be transferred between most multiple rentals. This service is available when the vehicle security deposit amount and currency is the same.

  • One-way fees are additional to any other fees that may apply. The One-Way fee will be charged to the Customer's credit card at the time of booking except in the case of a change in drop-off destination in accordance with our terms in which case the One-Way fee will be charged at the time that change is made.

Any problems associated with the Vehicle including equipment failure, must be reported to maui within 24 hours in order to give maui the opportunity to rectify the problem during the rental. Failure to do so may compromise any claims for compensation. Subject to the Release and Indemnity of Maui section, maui reserves the right to not accept liability for any claims submitted after this period.

Maintenance and Repairs:
The Customer shall take all reasonable steps to properly maintain the Vehicle and will contact Maui immediately should any and all vehicle warning lights indicate any malfunction, or potential malfunction.

Maui will reimburse the Customer for expenditure up to AUD $100 reasonably incurred in rectifying any mechanical failure to the Vehicle.

Repairs will be approved and reimbursement for expenditure will be made (where applicable), provided the Customer was not responsible for the damage. In all cases, receipts must be submitted for any repair or the claim will not be paid.

Unless the Customer has taken the Liability Reduction Option, the Customer will pay for the cost of repairing or replacing tyres damaged during the Rental Period except if the tyre is defective and is returned by the Customer to maui for inspection and is subject to a warranty claim on the manufacturer.

Ferry Reservations
Ferry reservations can be difficult to manage during high season. We recommend that a reservation is made for a 7.7m vehicle on the ferry, irrespective as to the size of the motorhome reserved, to avoid complications due to possible upgrades.

Vehicle Availability
Vehicles cannot be requested by make or model, only by vehicle category.

Maui will endeavour to supply the vehicle category selected, however should the vehicle booked be unavailable through unforeseen circumstances, Maui reserve the right to substitute an alternative vehicle without prior notification. The alternative vehicle shall be as close a substitute for the booked vehicle as possible.

Voluntary Downgrade
Should the Hirer decide to voluntarily downgrade their vehicle category from that booked, they will not be entitled to a refund.

Shortening of Rental Period:
If a renter shortens their hire period by more than a week - it may be treated as a cancellation of the whole booking and a re-booking. This depends on when the amendment takes place and how many days of hire are being cancelled. Please ensure you always have travel insurance in place.

  • If cancelled up to 91 days prior to pick-up - No Fee

All amendments to bookings are subject to availability of vehicle and/or package. Different rates may apply based on the amendment made.

Amendments prior to the vehicle collection date will be re-calculated at the flex rate applicable on the date of amendment. This applies to changing the vehicle type, reducing the number of rental days, changing pick-up dates and/or changing the pick-up or drop-off location. Where the number of rental days is being extended prior to the vehicle collection date (days are being added on at the end of the rental with no change to the original pick up date), or the Inclusive Pack is being added to or removed from the booking, the original flex rate, which applied at the time of the original booking, will apply.

Important:
Maui reserves the right to refuse any rental at its discretion.
