Buccaneer Starliner

Buccaneer takes a major step up for 2026 with the introduction of the new Starliner range. These are three caravans that, as Buccaneer says, “represent the pinnacle of caravan performance and comfort”. They have the highest specification in the Buccaneer portfolio. 

That includes air-conditioning, a television in the bedroom as well as in the lounge, an upgraded mattress – and an uprated chassis, at 2,250kg, giving enhanced payload and also enhanced stability. These models are available with cream or dark chocolate leather upholstery as an option.

The Buccaneer Starliner models are the Aruba, Barracuda and Cruiser, all based on the best-selling layouts in the range.

The Aruba is Buccaneer’s family caravan, with beds for six. That’s a double bed at the rear, with the shower room alongside it; a large U-shaped dining area that converts to another double bed, plus a lounge that transforms into two single beds or a double. The price is £51,749.

The Barracuda has a rear bedroom with the shower arrangements forward of it, and an L-shaped lounge. The price is £51,249.

The Cruiser has its shower room across the rear. It has a transversely aligned double bed and parallel lounge seating. The price is £50,449.

Buccaneer Skyliner

The Buccaneer Skyliner models are sophisticated, class-leading caravans designed to appeal to the most discerning buyers.

There are five layouts. That’s the Aruba, Barracuda and Cruiser, plus Bermuda and Commodore. They share the Starliner range’s spectacular styling that creates a dramatic, attention-grabbing look, using greys and neutral shades, plus a mix of textures, to create an opulent feel – cream leather upholstery is an option on all Skyliner models.

The Bermuda’s lounge seating is L-shaped and its bedroom is at the rear, with a transversely aligned bed and the shower room spanning the width of the caravan forward of it. The Commodore shares the bedroom and shower room configuration of the Bermuda, this time with parallel lounge seating.

Whichever Buccaneer level of spec you choose, and whichever model you choose, you are guaranteed industry-leading level of specification, styling and comfort.
