This is a 5 star park due mostly the the outstanding views. The park itself is nice and clean and the sites are larger than typical for private RV parks. It's tiered so most sites get a nice view of the ocean. I actually preferred the sites on the 2nd level because they were more private and quiet. The ones on level 1 have a lot of foot traffic but were directly on the ocean. Prices are expensive as expected. The location to Malibu, Santa Monica and LA is great. LA traffic sucks so plan your trips accordingly.
Dog walks are present but short. That was the only negative, the lack of walking space for the doggos. Most beaches in the area are not dog friendly but there was a nice beach at Point Magu which allows dogs on leash.
Wifi was advertised but too slow to use. Cable was good but went out for 2 days while we were there. They got a cable person onsite and got it resolved. Cell reception was great. Verizon 23d/l, ATT 27 d/l unboosted. Didn't check T mobile. 50 amp FHU was solid.
Onsite laundry was very clean and had multiple large machines. Bathrooms and showers were also clean. I did not use the showers. I have read some other reviews about this park that specifically mentioned rude staff. We did not experience that. I found them to be pleasant and helpful and dealt with multiple staff members during our 2 week stay.

We've come full-circle coming back to Malibu Beach RV Park where we started our first Airstream adventure with a rented 23'. This time around we learned our lesson by avoiding towing on Hwy-10 & Hwy-1 through Santa Monica, and instead taking the 101 and down Malibu Canyon. LA traffic is horrible, LA roads are horrible, but oh-man the restaurants are amazing!
Malibu Beach RV Park has everything you might want in an RV park, along with tons of seemingly well-enforced rules to supress the obnoxious. Large flocks of conures abound in the well-manicured landscaping, though can be a bit loud in the morning.
Backing into sites are a bit tight but manageable, just take your time, and a spotter helps!

If you like both ocean and mountain views from your RV window, awesome nearby hiking, great restaurants, very nice bathrooms, and an overall peaceful atmosphere then you'll love Malibu Beach RV Park as much as we did. After a few weeks in busy, crowded beach towns and therefore navigating crazy California roads, Malibu as a whole was a wonderful place for us to slow down and relax for a week. Nearly every site at Malibu Beach RV Park has a view of the ocean, but we would highly recommend paying the extra money for the best ocean view spots. In an effort to lower costs, we opted for a mountain view spot with only partial hookups. However, we lucked out with a spot that was only 1 row back from the best ocean views, for most of our stay had no RV in front of us to block the view, and were right next to the lovely bathrooms which made our stay absolutely perfect despite only having partial hookups. It also didn't hurt that our neighbors were friendly and we spent most nights by the campfire (propane fires are all that's allowed, by the way) with them.
Even though we did do some fun outings, we honestly would've been completely content just staying at the RV park all day. There were a few spots in the park with picnic tables near the edge of the cliff that the park sits on. These spots were surrounded by beautiful plants and flowers and offered 180-degree views of the ocean on one side and lush green mountains on the other. We spent our mornings, afternoons, and evenings at these spots while enjoying coffee, sunset dinners, and just quiet moments of meditation. A couple days we even saw whales and dolphins in the water! There was even plenty of spaces for the dogs to roam while we soaked up the beauty.
During our time at Malibu Beach RV park, we enjoyed several activities. Malibu itself has so much to offer. During the day, we enjoyed the convenience of walking to the beach, hiking Solstice Canyon and Escondido Canyon, and having lunch at nearby Malibu Seafood. We ventured out a couple other days to explore a few breweries in Westlake Village, as well as the popular and fun Malibu Cafe. The drive along Kanan Dume Road to get to those areas was enjoyable in itself. You're sure to love the beautiful views of the valley!
We also made sure to never miss a sunset and even though they can be enjoyed right from the RV park, we also enjoyed viewing them from Point Dume, Leo Carrillo beach, and the Malibu pier (while at the pier, consider dining at the adorable Malibu Farm for the cutest ambiance ever). One night we even drove into Santa Monica to experience it's famous and well-photographed pier and have dinner with friends who live there.

The best of both worlds with natural beauty and full hookups. The views are unparalleled and you can live a lifestyle that is reserved for the ultra wealthy with expansive views of the Pacific Ocean. On the front row, the ocean views are unobstructed and overwhelming. as you move further back, there are fewer guarantees of a view, but a lower price.
Amenity-wise, they offer sites with full hookups including cable. The wifi was strong and reliable during our stay with several different router's to connect to depending on your location. restrooms are public but very clean and with endless hot water. There is also a dog walk for our furry friends.
The property is situated directly above Pacific Coast Highway which will never be quiet, so if your image is of falling asleep to the sound of waves, you will have to hope there is gap in traffic to hear them. Also, the beach is south facing in this particular part of Malibu so the sites are not directed at the famous Southern California sunset. These two issues, however, do not dilute the experience of living with views like the billionaires have. This truly is a very special place and worth every penny. (because it is also expensive)

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
