Get to Know Us
Jacana Motorhomes was founded on a simple idea—build motorhomes that are reliable, practical, and tailored to how people really travel.
With over 20 years in the motorhome and campervan industry, we’ve developed a deep understanding of what works on the road and what doesn’t. Every vehicle we build reflects that experience.
Our focus has always been on delivering quality motorhomes that combine comfort, capability, and long-term reliability. We work with customers from across Australia—from regional NSW to Queensland, South Australia and beyond—helping them prepare for travel wherever the road takes them.
A Foundation in Marine Craftsmanship
Before motorhomes, our background was in the marine industry—designing and building sports boats.
Over 15 years, this work earned industry recognition and awards, while shaping the way we approach construction today.
That experience continues to influence every Jacana motorhome:
-
Strong, lightweight construction
-
Attention to detail
-
Durability in demanding conditions
It’s a foundation that sets our builds apart.
A Personal, Collaborative Approach
We believe the best results come from listening.
We offer both, a range of proven motorhome models or a fully customised build tailored to your needs.
From your first consultation through to final handover, we take the time to:
-
Understand how you want to travel
-
Guide you through design decisions
-
Keep communication clear and consistent
Our goal is simple—to deliver a motorhome that meets your expectations and performs exactly as it should.
Whether you know exactly what you want or need guidance along the way, our team will work with you to create a motorhome that suits your lifestyle.
Louise & Phil
Phil and I would like to say a huge thankyou to you all following completion of our van.
From the moment we first visited the Jacana workshop to have a look at your demo van we felt comfortable that we would be happy with the final product.
We had ideas of what we wanted and didn't want and it has turned out to be everything we wanted and more.
Kat updated us with progress and photos and Barry was a true gentleman, excellent at his job and nothing was a problem for anyone we dealt with. We have recommended you to many friends and to many people admiring the van while we have been travelling.
We wish you all every success for the future, we will continue recommending Jacana while enjoying our travels.
Our Van is amazing, thankyou.

We’ve had our Hiker X for 12 months now. We’ve travelled as far north as 1770-Agnes Waters and south around Tassie. We’ve clocked up just over 20 000 km in that time. Our vehicle hasn’t missed a beat and continues to fulfill all our holiday needs.
Ros, Barry and the rest of the Jacana team have been the best to work with. From requests during manufacture to “tweaks” we’ve wanted after trips, they have always been more than happy to oblige.
We continue to receive positive feedback about the van, its individual appearance and the quality of the finished product wherever we go and continue to hand out Jacana business cards and flyers to interested travellers wherever we go.
We could not be more satisfied with our Jacana van or the awesome people who are responsible for creating it.
Darrell & Susan
This ultimate adventure vehicle with a custom fit out was handed over to us 2 years ago and has been our full time home whilst travelling around Australia.
Barry and the team designed and accommodated our requirements and needs with a quality bespoke fit out to cater for travelling and touring with our e-bikes. The functionality and craftsmanship is first class and is standing up to the harsh environment of outback travel with ease.
The knowledge and experience of the whole team at Jacana is second to none and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking for genuine service.
