The friendliest most fun place I’ve ever worked out in Star are absolutely wonderful. Everybody seems to know each other and if they don’t know you then make sure they do on your very first day there. I love this place. It’s like a home away from home.

Great gym for our weekend in Malibu. My daughter and I dropped in with a day pass and loved this place. Great place to keep up your weight training while traveling. And the ocean view, outdoor lifting area...now that's a vibe.

Love, love, love this dope little gym. Staff is friendly and super helpful, and Larry the buff 60 year old black dude in phenomenal shape, had great energy, and is such a nice guy. In the area for only a few weeks and it's the only gym in the area. Pricey per week, but due to the vibe here and the people it's definitely worth it. It's on a second story with a huge sliding window makes the scenery 👌 😍. Thank you Malibu fitness 🙏

Great gym, great people... I feel welcomed every time I arrive. It has all the equipment necessary for a diverse cardio and strength workout. For training... Michael Galate is as knowledgeable as he is motivating.

Too many Malibu babies. They need to learn to put their weights away. Their Nanny is not there. Staff is fantastic and friendly. We loved interacting with them. Great weight lifting options.

Super authentic gym, old functional equipment but gives it a very down to earth vibe. I visited on a day pass and the people there all super friendly. Not for you if you like slick and modern, but if you’re genuinely looking to get fit and actually workout, its an inspiring place, its great. V friendly staff.

I've been a loyal member of Diamond's Gym in Malibu for years until its closure recently.
I moved over to Malibu Fitness and the transition has been a smooth one. First day there, I met Devo, give this man a raise. He went out of his way to help me out with the process of registering for a membership. A total professional and a down to earth person with a good heart. My day and evening workouts have been an enjoyable experience. The vibe here is super cool with no attitude, only smiling faces. If you are looking for a great gym here in Malibu, give Malibu Fitness a try.

Jessica and I found the COOLEST gym I’ve ever seen on our recent trip to California. It’s called “Malibu Fitness” and it’s been open since 1986. I think they’ve basically had the exact same equipment, machines and playlist since that time and it’s absolutely perfect!

Malibu Fitness is a owner operated spot in Malibu, not far from the water on the PCH. The logo is rad, exactly what you’d expect, like it was on a VHS in the 80’s. Walking in, the owner Devo warmly greeted us. This guy was the real deal. Dark sun beaten skin, earrings, spikey gray hair. He was laid back, as most locals are, welcoming and amused that we were visiting all the way from Texas. Malibu, though famous, is kind of a rural place compared to LA because it’s so far out of the way.

A non member day pass here was $20 per person, which is expensive by Texans standards but you have to remember the city, county and state you’re in. This is one of the highest cost of living areas in the nation, and I’ll contend it was a great value anyways.

The gym had a massive aerobics training area with wall-to-wall mirrors for all kinds of different classes, there was a huge collection of spin bikes, and over in the gym area you felt like you were walking back in time. Every possible cable machine you would expect was here but he had all kinds of obscure and seldom seen machines as well. Almost comically the machines all seemed to be from the late 80s or 90s themselves which matched the entire theme of the place. I’m not even making this up, Kenny Loggins original rendition of “Danger Zone” was playing overhead. It was like you were on a movie set or something.

Devo probably told us that you can take any of the equipment that you’d like outside and I didn’t know what he meant at the time but once I got in there I realized that 50% of the gym was outdoors on this massive patio in the open air. The gym itself is in the second floor of a big business park but he had the end space so this big patio deck area was a place to go outside and lift or work out in the air which is pretty much always perfect in this part of the country. On the date of our visit it was probably 68° with virtually no humidity and you could literally smell the ocean. It’s that good.

Some of the machines had the faintest hint of rust and many of the weights have been worn past their coloring due to decades of constant use. Still everything was well-maintained and in proper working order. Not a single thing I came across and there was dirty or broken. Just vintage.

I couldn’t help but instantly fall in love with the place, the entire vibe was just awesome and it being owner operated you immediately got that connection like the owner was sincerely thankful for your patronage and suddenly I didn’t mind the expense of paying for the two of us to have a workout that afternoon.

Malibu Fitness was a special experience. I hope to visit again one day. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Could be a lot cleaner. The outdoor equipment in the shed hasn’t been washed in years.

Flew into Town for a wedding, and I attended a spin class with a member at the gym, may I say that it was an awesome class and it's a pity I don't live closer, super time and lovely environment to enjoy a really good fitness class. Leonnie the trainer was awesome!

Malibu Fitness is easily the best gym in Malibu. Classes are great, staff here are locals and very friendly/knowledgeable/helpful. Since MF is family-owned and run, all of the machines are updated regularly as they really care about the place and the people who use it.
