Malibu Beach RV Park

Hidden gem! Incredible location and amazing facilities! A little at the higher end of cost but we stayed right on the ocean view edge and it was pure magic! Loved every minute we were there!

This cute little couple runs the place & they're awesome. Seriously stay here. The place is well maintained & the people are friendly :)

The waterfront sites at Malibu Beach RV Park are fantastic. The office staff varies. We were greeted by a laid back surfer dude who gave us bad directions to our spot, so that caused for some initial parking frustrations. Once we were situated we were quite happy with the campground. The wifi is spotty. I worked on it maybe 60% of the time while we were here (working M-F 7-5).

This campground is pricey, but they have good off-season rates and I prefer it to Dockweiler in Playa del Rey.

If the campsites were paved I would have given it a 5.

One note about cell service. Both our AT&T and Verizon data cards work here but haven't been consistent.

The views here are absolutely stunning without a doubt! But based on what you get for the price, as well as the location, we probably wouldn't stay here again. First, we just didn't love Malibu - we prefer coastal towns with a quaint little downtown area, so that definitely affected our feeling about this location. Second, I would really have preferred a paved spot so things would be cleaner and less dusty. Finally, we had strong sewer odors wafting up the hill toward us through most of our stay which was really unpleasant.

On the pros side: the folks in the office were helpful and friendly and we made use of the little store there several times - very handy. And again - the views were phenomenal!

There are just too many other parks we've enjoyed more and for the price here we probably wouldn't return.

This park was the endpoint of our cross-country trip from DC in November 2015. It's high on a cliff overlooking the beach with views of Catalina island and Palos Verdes peninsula, right off the Pacific coast highway. The highway noise is not a bother on the front row, but you still hear the surf, even closed up. The park is very clean, with restrooms and hot showers that are cleaned daily. Sites with water and electricity only and with less of a view are available at lower cost. Also, some pull-through and 50 amp sites available for more money. We have a dog and appreciate the dedicated dog walk area, complete with poop bag dispensers and trash cans that are emptied daily. Supplies, stores and a movie theater are only a 5-minute drive away. There is also a small store on premises. Negatives? Off-air TV is very poor: the coastal range blocks the LA signals. We were getting Mexican stations from Tijuana. The free cable is also very poor; I suspect it hasn't been maintained. Poor signal and few channels. Park wi-fi is not too bad, but not suitable for streaming video except at 4:00 a.m. Cell service from Verizon was frustrating. Occasionally we'd get an LTE signal, but usually only a 3G. Strength was ok, especially with our booster. But the site seemed overloaded and would go off-line frequently. There can be ants (as others have reported); but locals not affiliated with the park tell us this to be expected. They discovered us about 7 days into our first visit. They appear to have crawled up our satellite dish cable, which was lying on the ground. A treatment of all ground contact points (cables, hoses, wheels, stabilizers) with "Comet" brand powder took care of the problem. Most of the staff are working retirees who live in RVs on the premises. About a 20 minute drive to Santa Monica.

As we are making our way up the coast of California, we needed a spot near LA. We didn't have any desire to stay in Anaheim so we opted for Malibu. The views are great, but the spaces are small. Also, our spot was in the front, right over PCH. Not much in the way of amenities vs. price, but we did a lot exploring during our visit. Bottom line is there isn't a whole lot going on here in Malibu - just a few overpriced restaurants that a lot of hollywood-types frequent a lot. Crossing this one off the list, but I would recommend it your passing through for a couple of days.

We found ourselves in a cold, wet January in SoCal and after a few weeks of "dry" camping (ironically it was anything but dry) we were craving some hookups to get some heat into the trailer and our bones. Hook-ups on the California Coast can get a little pricey, but life is short and views like this don't come along every day, so we decided to spend a few weeks in Malibu.

The weekly and monthly winter rates at the Malibu Beach RV Park are competitive with state beach camping and the views are outstanding. We chose to pay extra for an oceanfront spot and after booking a week, we decided we couldn't leave it was so awesome and stayed another two. Our spot was spacious and they allow you to park your tow vehicle away from the site, so you have even more room. Some of the sites in the middle of the campground are tighter but most of the ocean front ones are larger. Considering they probably have some of the most valuable real estate in the country, the fact they don't cram you in is really appreciated.

Within a short drive you can head to Santa Monica or to LA, or in the other direction along PCH you will find quiet desolate coastline. The hiking nearby is great too.

The place would be improved by paved spaces, but it's hard to find any fault with such a beautiful location.

We throughly enjoyed our stay here in February. Killer views up on the bluff and a very pleasant surrounding and vib. Sites are a bit tight but would come back in a heartbeat. Good location to hit northern LA spots including the Getty, Mulholland Highway, Santa Monica, etc.

If you arrive early, just hang out along with the beach and park on the highway in front of their entrance.

Does not allow Roof Top Tents or Overland Vehicles. I was told I need to remove the tent from on top of my Overland truck to stay there (Tent weighs over 200lbs) I even offered to pay extra for an RV spot and was told I'm not allowed.

If you like or don't mind RV parks or need a break from the state parks system this is the place.

Our site was right on the cliff over looking the ocean. THE VIEW CAN'T BE BEAT. The staff was great. They helped me out when I showed up on the wrong day getting me into another site for the night, they also had no problem letting us stay another night in our sight. The store is also great with everything you need and plenty of stuff you don't. There is no fires or charcoal bbq's which is understandable knowing often there are major fires in Malibu. The beach is right there and there are a great hikes in the canyon behind the park. They also have full hook ups which is great and laundry if you have been on the road for a while. Can't wait to go back.
