Malibu Beach RV Park

We stayed here for 5 days with our Airstream Basecamp. We were nervous not being able to pick our spot, but it turned out better than ever! We were in a “Mountain View” spot on the middle row. It was perfect. Had a nice little tree, could still see the gorgeous Malibu ocean. The park is very clean, really secure, and has incredible views. We even saw a ton of dolphins! The staff were all incredibly friendly and accommodating. We will definitely be back!

Stayed in mid-Nov 2022
Site type: Back-in, FHU 50 AMP

THE GOOD
Staff: Very nice folks and really helpful.
Secure: No folks are getting into the campground unless they are staying there.
Peaceful: Fairly quiet in the evening and overnight. Mainly hear the waves crashing. You actually do not hear the traffic that much, but we were backed up the opposite side from the ocean, so maybe the ocean view sites hear it more.
Location: It's Malibu. Beautiful everywhere you go and generally close to anything you need. The Malibu hills are immediately behind the campground. The beach is across the street. Malibu Seafood (restaurant) is a 2 minute walk down the path from the campground. Gas station within 5 min.
Grounds: Clean and nicely maintained!
Office/Store: Good sized store. Some grocery items and a good amount of RV stuff.
Facilities: Laundry and showers are fairly nice.
Wifi: Campground wifi is pretty darn good for a campground.
Cell: Both AT&T and Verizon were good. Verizon was stronger than AT&T.

THE BAD:
Sites: Many of the sites are fairly short. So, you need to park in the overflow parking, unless you can fit your vehicle next to your rig without going into the road in any way. I appreciate that they stay on top of everyone's parking. But, it is worth noting because of the parking scenario (below).
Parking: The overflow parking area is across from a row of back-in sites. Most of those back-ins essentially have their trailer's hitch/coupler right at the edge of the road. So, when those folks need to hitch up again, there is little to no room between them and your parked vehicle.

COULD BE BETTER: Not good or bad
Wifi: Typical campground wifi. Could not connect to it.

Perched up on the cliff overlooking the ocean, the views really are something else. Pay the extra for the ocean view.

Very well run, clean bathrooms and showers.

My only small issue was that the individual sites weren’t very level which meant putting the trailer on blocks on the edge of a cliff which felt super sketchy. We moved away from the ocean view because of this.

We stayed in a ocean view site. Backed up to bluff overlooking the ocean. We saw dolphins swimming by in the water down below. You could hear the waves crashing. Yes there is the PCH below but at night siting outside by fire pit I could hear the ocean clearly. Sites were good size. Appreciate the small fence next to the sewer line so you neighbor’s table isn’t right next to sewer. Staff were all very friendly. Sat out on the resort patio for sunset it was very comfortable. We will definitely return.

I love this RV Park. My favorite site numbers 14-25 front line over looking PCH and the Ocean. Also love 89. I return to this park as often as possible. Mike the Manager is awesome, Terry super kind. the staff great. Wifi excellent. Level. Easy access to Malibu Mart and market. The ocean front is spectacular. I have never used the washer and dryer or the public showers. Easy walk to the beach. I highly recommend using the crosswalk and don’t try and cross PCH. The office/store have all kinds of fun things as well as anything needed for the Camp experience. No wood fires allowed. Only propane. Hoping to visit again real soon.

We had a great time at this RV park. Booked the ocean view, our site was nice and wide, full hook up, and easy access to beach across the street (although you have to run across the PCH). We use to live near this area so no need for us to explore, we just soaked in the views (which is what we wanted to do for the daily price). Did not use the facilities so no comment but the grounds were well kept up. If you want a quick bite, take the trail down to Malibu seafood. Pro tip, bring your own cold one and enjoy the pacific from the outdoor patio.

Excellent views…everything else needs to be improved. This is the most expensive campground we have stayed at…$150 per night (includes all taxes). The sites are small, had to park truck away from site. Uneven hard sand. Now for the unreal part. Laundry; dirty, old, and when loaded front load inside the rubber gasket was poop turd, not sure if dog or human! It was so disgusting…went to the office and all they said was “it happens…sometimes people don’t check their sheet before loading the washer”! What? Who poops the bed!!!! It was so nasty…
