Safety is of the utmost importance to your family, and the Ventana was designed to keep you and your passengers safe without sacrificing any of the luxury and amenities that Newmar RVs are known for.

The Newmar Ventana includes a spacious kitchen with all the bells and whistles, so you can whip up healthy, motorhome-cooked meals with ease. Enjoy fun meals together using the standard amenities, including a refrigerator, convection stainless steel microwave, three-burner recessed gas cooktop, and air fryer feature.

Upgraded amenities include a Whirlpool refrigerator, dishwasher, and Splendide 2-piece stacked washer and dryer.

The 2024 Newmar Ventana features Newmar’s exclusive Comfort Drive adaptive steering.

• Fuel type: Diesel 
• Sleeping Capacity: 7 
• Chassis: Spartan

Begin by choosing from 38, 40, or 43-foot models, each equipped with your choice of a master bath, two full bathrooms, or bunk bed configurations designed to suit any lifestyle. Two floor plans, the 3817 and 3836, were lengthened from 37 to 38 feet for 2024, providing more kitchen or bedroom space, depending on the plan.

The 4311 is a 43-foot wheelchair-accessible model, something that more travelers need and value in this day and age. You can further leave your mark on your Newmar Dutch Star as you choose from a variety of unique interior and exterior options and begin your journey in the lap of luxury. 

The 2024 Newmar Dutch Star is loaded with features and innovations that make for a comfortable, inviting stay wherever the road takes you, with wide-open interior spaces that feel like home.

Cooking for the whole family is a pleasure in the kitchen with an optional dishwasher, and for even more room to stretch out, rear-bath floorplans offer cathedral ceilings with more open space above you. Powerful Wi-Fi connectivity keeps you connected with work, school, and friends throughout your journey. Like the Ventana, the Newmar Dutch Star is equipped with Newmar’s Comfort Drive technology, making it a joy to drive and live in.

Best family-friendly Class B RVs

Versatile in size with standard RV amenities, Class B RVs (also known as campervans) are comfortable to drive, offer great gas mileage, and are easy to store. The size of a Class B RV makes it more readily and easily serviced by most shops, which is not always the case for larger motorhomes. Perfect for small families, the campervan’s maneuverability is ideal, and they can fit seamlessly into a driveway or regular-size parking spaces.

Winnebago Revel

If your family treats roads more like suggestions and is always up for an adventure, then the Winnebago 4x4 Revel is for you. 

• Length: 19’
• Fuel type: Diesel
• Sleeping Capacity: 2

Feel confident you’re keeping your loved ones safe when staying off-grid with one 320-amp hour LiFePO4 battery and solar power bank. The Hydronic heating system provides comfortable, quiet heating controlled by a user-friendly LED touchscreen panel. 

Interior features in this family-friendly campervan include easy-to-maintain surfaces, heavy-duty vinyl flooring, reverse cove molding at cabinet bases, folded aluminum constructed cabinets, and positive latching slam latches. Updated dinette seating boasts comfort, discreet storage, two seat belts, and a removable pedestal table for flexibility. The power lift bed means you’ll have additional storage for everyone’s favorite road trip accessories. 

Host game nights in the redesigned galley with an updated exterior table in this popular campervan. The galley also has a removable counter extension, a refrigerator that’s accessible from inside or outside the coach, a storable induction cooktop that adds counter space, and a new rectangular sink with a fixed faucet. 

Built on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis, the function-fueled design powered by the reliability of a 3-liter turbo diesel engine and the freedom of on-demand 4WD means going off-road is never off the table in the Winnebago Revel.

Known for its adaptability to both adventure and budgets, the Solis is available in 2 floorplans for 2024, the 59P and the 59PX.

Featuring automotive-grade seating in the dinette with three-point belts, the Solis is a great choice for families with children who need secure seating. The simple appliances and cab conveniences make the Solis a snap to operate for people of all ages, and its versatile living space leaves life in this campervan up to your imagination. The galley includes a refrigerator, sink, plentiful storage, and pull-out counter extension in a compact space. The Solis campervan also features a wet bath with a cassette toilet that fits into the floorplan seamlessly, drawing from the Eco-Hot water system.

Best family-friendly Class C RVs

Class C motorhomes combine the best of both worlds from Class A and Class B RVs. Recent technology has made Class C RVs much easier to drive thanks to tighter turning radiuses and updated technology, and these motorhomes are extremely safe from a front-impact accident standpoint. With extra sleeping space, affordability, and easy-to-drive amenities, your Class C RV can tow an extra vehicle with ease and is the perfect entry-level motorhome for families of all sizes. 

Winnebago EKKO

The Winnebago EKKO combines campervan efficiency with the space and towing capacity of a larger RV, all in an all-wheel-drive vehicle. Extend your camping season in comfort and style in the Winnebago EKKO.

• Length: 23’
• Fuel type: Gas-powered
• Sleeping Capacity: 4
• Chassis: Ford Transit

Does your family enjoy the great outdoors no matter the season? Look no further than the Winnebago EKKO.

Enjoy extended stays in the backwoods thanks to a 50-gallon freshwater tank plus proportionate waste tanks. 

The Winnebago EKKO offers all-wheel drive, and the 3.5L EcoBoost V6 delivers 310 horsepower and 400 lb.-ft. of torque. With 5,000 lb of towing capacity on its Ford® AWD Transit chassis, you can also bring your boat, kayaks, mountain bikes for the whole family, or even an additional camping trailer to maximize your outdoor experience.

You can count on adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping system, pre-collision braking, and more to keep you and your family safe.

Winnebago Navion

You’ve probably noticed that we feature a lot of Winnebagos on this list by now. That’s because Winnebago is famous for comfort and affordability, two values that many families hold dear when it comes to RV travel. The Navion is no exception.

• Length: 25’6” - 25’8”

At just over 25 feet in length, the Navion handles more like a large passenger van than a mobile home. Adaptive ESP technology and hydraulic brakes with ABS ensure safety and maneuverability while driving. 

Featuring a stylish and complete kitchen, the Winnebago Navion is perfect for nights in while out on the road. With a 2-burner induction and LP range cooktop, 10 cubic foot refrigerator/freezer, and laminate countertops alongside a double stainless steel sink, you can do a lot more than heat up a box of instant noodles in this camper van. 

The Winnebago Navion has eye-catching curved cabinets, lighted soft close galley drawers, and sprung-cushion dinette and sofa seats work together to transform the interior into an upscale living experience. With its premium thermal and acoustic insulation, the SuperShell Sleeper Deck is more comfortable and relaxing than ever.

Best family-friendly Super C RVs

Super C RVs offer all of the benefits of Class C RVs—but supersized. Designed similar to a Class C RV, but with a larger chassis and a larger power plant, the super-large frame and extra-powerful engine open an abundance of possibilities when it comes to the details of the motorhome. Perfect for large families, Super C RVs offer a wider wheelbase, super-spacious floorplans, extremely high towing capacity, durability, and plenty of extra storage space. 

Newmar Super Star

Newmar’s game-changing entry into the super C segment features many of Newmar’s telltale fine details in a smaller but mighty package.

A large sky window above the cockpit lets natural light flood the space and has a power shade for when privacy is needed. There’s also a full-wall slideout and exclusive step-free aisleway for more space than you thought possible in a Class C.

Enjoy comfort throughout the Super Star, with a new 9” Xite dash monitor system, Harman/JBL sound system and subwoofer, and remote-controlled exterior mirrors with defrost. After you’ve reached your destination, settle in with the Samsung 50” 4K LED TV and Bose sound bar. In every season, you’ll all stay comfortable with two Penguin heat pump air conditioners with wall‑mounted sensors in the Newmar Super Star.
