Vans have ventilation built in although I doubt if it would be suficient for the number you are having in your van. Have windows on the first catch during the night, especially one at the front and one at the rear. That way you get more circulation without a gust blowing through. It helps

Same here, a little condensation at the rear of our van early in the year, but not a lot more.  Probably different with different vans though, a buddy of mine was complaining about condensation in his lockers a few weeks ago when on a trip.  But as this was only on one side of the van, I suspect he had a slightly different problem.

old caravanners swear by corrugated cardboard under the mattress as this keeps the air circulating.not tried it myself. there is these but not cheap i think.

We have one of these mats under are front dinette when made up as bed. The table makes up the base of the bed and not slats.

As for the rest of the van, at night we keep windows on the 'ventilation' setting, and unless it is extremely cold outside we don't have a problem. We always have a window open in our bedroom at home.
