Orlando is one of the few major cities with both Florida coasts inside a 90-minute drive, the Keys within a day, and the Appalachians reachable on a long weekend. What a camper van for sale in Orlando has to handle is not the driving but the climate: high heat combined with humidity that makes a poorly ventilated van uncomfortable long before the thermometer would justify it, and an afternoon thunderstorm pattern that runs most days through summer.
The Vansmith builds Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Ford Transit camper vans in Boulder, Colorado, and delivers them to buyers across Central Florida. We have built more than 300 vans since 2016. Conversion packages on a van you already own start at $46,950, complete vans with the chassis included start at $115,950, and pre-built Bivy models run from $119,700 to $145,845 depending on trim. For the statewide picture, see our
campervans for sale in Florida.
A 12V air conditioner runs from a lithium bank, but it is the largest single draw in the van. Runtime depends on battery capacity, insulation, outside temperature and shade. Most Florida setups pair a large bank with strong solar and alternator charging, then use shore power for all-night cooling in peak summer. Read our 12V air conditioning guide and see A/C installation .
Do these first. They reduce how hard the cooling system has to work, which is the difference between a few hours of off-grid air conditioning and a full night. See roof vent installation and our guide on keeping an RV cool in summer .
Florida sun is a strong charging resource, though summer afternoon cloud cover cuts into it more than people expect. We size the array to your roof and daily use. See Solar Installation .
Battery, inverter, charging and monitoring designed as one system by our own team. A battery monitor tells you exactly how long cooling can run tonight. See our Electrical System work.
Fresh and gray tanks sized to trip length, with an optional exterior shower for rinsing sand and salt before you climb in.
A 12V compressor fridge keeps food cold for days on battery power, with no ice runs and no meltwater in the bottom of a cooler.
Overhead cabinets, drawers and a gear garage, planned around what you actually carry.
Sealed Baltic birch cabinetry and washable flooring built for wet gear, sand and daily use.

A Class B is a camper built on a van chassis rather than a truck frame. It parks in a standard space, fits most home garages, and drives like a tall van, which matters in a metro area where many communities restrict where a full-size RV can sit. Browse our Class B RVs for sale .
Nine tailored layouts across the two-person DUO Series and the four-person FAMILY Series, plus three pre-built Bivy trims. Browse all tailored models .
If you already own a Sprinter or Transit, a conversion package turns it into a camper without buying a second vehicle, starting at $46,950. Anyone shopping for conversion vans in Orlando, Florida with a chassis already in the driveway starts here. A Foundation shell starts at $9,970 for self-builders.
A short-wheelbase build around 19.5 feet covers coast weekends and stays easy to park. Extended layouts around 22.5 feet add an interior shower, larger tanks and more storage for the Keys or longer Southeast runs.
New builds are designed around your travel and carry a lifetime cabinet warranty. We also keep a rotating selection of inspected used camper vans that ship from Boulder.
Current stock is listed on our camper vans for sale page. For a build, use our van designer or call (303) 414-6834.
Ocala National Forest, Wekiwa Springs and the chain of freshwater springs north of the city are all within an hour. The springs hold about 72 degrees year-round, which makes them a genuine summer escape.
Clearwater, St. Pete and Sarasota are about two hours west. See our Tampa page .
Five to six hours south, then the Overseas Highway. Keys campgrounds book out months ahead and many have vehicle length limits, so reserve early and check the limit against your build.
About three and a half hours south. Remote, hot, and with very limited services, which makes self-contained water and power genuinely useful rather than a luxury.
St. Augustine, Amelia Island and the Panhandle beaches are two to six hours north and northwest.
Georgia, the Carolinas and the southern Appalachians are all within a day. See camper vans in Georgia and North Carolina .
Orlando sits within two days of most of the eastern half of the country, and a self-contained van makes those drives considerably cheaper than flying and renting.
Summer highs sit in the low to mid 90s for months, and the heat index runs higher. A dark van parked in full sun gets considerably hotter than the outside air, which is why insulation and ventilation matter before cooling capacity does.
Humidity is the part people underestimate. A van can feel oppressive at 85 degrees with high humidity while being comfortable at 95 in dry air. Moving air through the van is what changes that, so a powered roof fan does as much for comfort here as an air conditioner.
Central Florida sees an afternoon thunderstorm pattern most days in summer. Sealed roof penetrations and a gear garage for wet equipment keep a daily downpour from becoming a problem inside the van.
Hurricane season runs June through November. A self-contained van with its own power and water is genuinely useful during an outage, but it is not shelter in a storm. Plan travel around forecasts and evacuation routes rather than relying on the van.
A powered roof fan pulls hot, damp air out through the ceiling where it collects. Insulated window covers keep the sun off the glass. Air conditioning then has far less work to do, which directly extends battery runtime.
In a humid climate, condensation and mildew are the long-term risks. Airflow paths behind cabinets, sealed surfaces and a fan that runs while you sleep are what prevent them.
Florida is one of the few places where winter is the best travel season. A heater still earns its place for north Florida and Appalachian trips, where nights drop into the 30s.
| Orlando Challenge | How We Build For It |
|---|---|
| Hot Florida temperatures | Insulation on all six sides, a powered roof fan, insulated window covers, and air conditioning options sized to the battery bank. |
| High humidity | Continuous airflow from a powered roof fan, sealed cabinetry and airflow paths behind panels so damp air escapes instead of condensing. |
| High AC demand | A lithium bank sized around overnight cooling, charged by solar, DC-DC alternator charging and shore power. |
| Heavy rain | Sealed roof penetrations, washable flooring and a gear garage that keeps wet equipment out of the living space. |
| Thunderstorms | A self-contained van gives you the flexibility to change plans, move sites or wait out a storm comfortably. |
| Limited campground hookups | Four independent charging paths so a site without power is a choice rather than a compromise. |
| Beach and outdoor gear storage | A gear garage beneath a raised bed, plus roof racks for boards and anything too sandy to bring inside. |
| Long Florida road trips | Fresh and gray water, refrigeration, galley, sleeping and storage systems sized to trip length. |
| Orlando traffic | A van-based Class B platform drives and parks like a tall van rather than a motorhome. |
| Parking limitations | A short-wheelbase build around 19.5 feet fits standard spaces. Height is the real constraint, so measure your garage before ordering. |
| Year-round travel | Insulation, ventilation, cooling and heating specified together, so the van works in August and on a 35-degree night in the Smokies. |
Specify insulation, ventilation and cooling as one system rather than three separate decisions, and size the battery bank around overnight air conditioning if you plan to camp without hookups in summer.
Two people fit comfortably in a DUO. Four need the FAMILY Series for the seatbelts and berths.
A high-roof van stands roughly 9 to 10 feet tall. Measure your garage door opening, and check community or HOA rules on parking a vehicle that size.
This is the single most important spec decision for a Florida van. Undersize the battery bank and you will end up tethered to shore power all summer.
Tanks and fridge capacity sized for the Keys and Everglades trips where services are far apart.
Beach gear, bikes and coolers all need somewhere that is not the bed. A gear garage is usually the answer.
A lifetime cabinet warranty for the original owner, with no mileage or year limits. Coastal and salt exposure makes regular rinsing worthwhile, particularly after Keys trips.
From $46,950 for the DUO, $53,950 for the DUO S, $63,950 for the DUO XLS, $51,950 for the FAMILY, $61,950 for the FAMILY XL and $68,950 for the FAMILY XLS, all on a van you already own.
Tailored vans with the chassis included start at $115,950. Pre-built Bivy models run $119,700 for the Classic, $145,845 for the Plus and $192,570 for the Deluxe.
The camper build itself: insulation, cabinetry, galley with sink, fresh and gray water, 12V refrigeration, the electrical system with battery, inverter, charging and monitoring, sleeping arrangements and storage, plus the warranty.
A conversion price covers the build only. If you do not already own a Sprinter or Transit, we can source one, and the complete-van pricing above includes the chassis.
Air conditioning, larger battery banks, additional solar, heater specification, shower type, roof racks and finish upgrades are the options Florida buyers most often add.
