Shangri-La RV Resort

More expensive than any other place we’ve stayed and they charge for extra people including kids. Wtf? Why? They also charge your card before you arrive. First time for me. It is clean, convenient and the amenities are nice but if you’re a young family with kids stay away! Everyone is elderly and GRUMPY! My kids and I couldn’t do anything right. We walked in the wrong place, we walked our dog in the wrong place. The office staff was rude and unhelpful when we asked for a late checkout even though there wasn’t anyone scheduled to come in our spot. We are a military family waiting on our house; it would have been nice to have a staff that understood our circumstance and could have been a bit more accommodating.

What do I say about this place? We stayed here twice as a young family with young children. The residents for the most part were amazing and kind. One even brought us chocolates for the kids because she said my kids did something to help her.
The rv park is clean and quiet. Pristine almost. Which is great!
The staff… well, we had some staff that was amazing! We had one man and one woman who were frustrating and making up rules as the days went by. No rollerskates after the kids were told they could skate, no playing on the Rc track after the staff told them they could, no riding their bikes because they MIGHT ride too fast. Like I said… the majority of the staff were great, but it only takes one person to spoil an experience.
We are coming back through Yuma, but we are choosing not to stay here this time. We are searching for a little bit more of a family friendly RV park.

Love coming here every year for the past few years. Great wifi and sites. Staff always friendly and tons to do. Was a little disappointed after we stayed for a whole month and really watched our electric intake due to having to pay electricity. We were sad to receive a bill for $ 71. ouch that hurt! Other than that this park is a good place to stay, but higher costs may tempt us to check out other places when we come back.

By far, the best RV park/​resort we’ve ever visited (and I’ve been RVing for 40 years)!Only here for one night, however check in was highly organized and easy. We were led to our site even though it was after hours and the office was closed. Everyone here is extremely friendly and helpful. Laundry, exercise room, lovely heated pool and hottub, putting green, showers/​restrooms — everything clean and well kept. We will ABSOLUTELY stay here again! Wonderful place.

We had a nice time and the people that run the park are friendly and always willing to help out. We were there only one night but they treated us like we were full timers which typically our experience. They made special arrangements for us to fill up with propane before we left as we had just run out the morning we were leaving. Overall we would highly recommend this place.

We knew going in that it was «off-​season» being summer in Yuma. We found the resort to be minimally occupied but clean and very welcoming. Our 40 foot rig fit our pull-​through site (#250) just fine (I’ve included a pic) and we had room (plenty) for our slide and our awnings though that could be a little different story during the «peak» season depending on the neighbors rig sizes. Off course, that would only be if they let us in then since during the normal season there are rv age restrictions and we’re a beautiful 15 years old…
The free wifi worked flawlessly and fabulously while we were there which was a delight! I don’t know how it would be during the busier times.
The laundry room (included pics) was air conditioned, clean and in great working order.
The pool was smaller than it looked on the resort’s website but refreshing and was where we could be frequently found because it was sooo hot (106 to 108 degrees).
The seven park residents we met during our stay were all extremely friendly and welcoming.
If you aren’t fond of the taste of Yuma’s water (salty) there are «salt-​free» water filling stations all over town and conveniently even two in the resort itself. We found the 25 cents per gallon cost to be worth it!
There were putting greens found throughout the resort which would have been nice to use if it wasn’t so hot.
Being off-​season a few things were actually closed during our stay – shuffle board courts, resort library, craft room, and the rec room. The office was open just 2 hours each day.
There is an off leash dog/​walk area that is really just a big sandy lot. Be careful if your dog runs off because it is open to the street across the lot. It’s the only place to really take your dog in the morning or evening… the rest of the day is just too hot and the pavement scorching for the dog’s feet. There is no grass.
One other thing: our tap water was never cold! We showered without ever turning on the hot tap… I guess somehow the good old sun was keeping the water supply extremely warm.
In conclusion we would absolutely have no problem staying at the Shangri-​La again during off-​season and felt it was a good value for our needs and our wallet.

We’re staying here currently, and we enjoy the park. The office staff and owners are super nice and will help you anyway they can. They have a laundry room, water vending on site (city water is pretty salty tasting), personal dump stations, dog park, golf greens scattered throughout the park, shuffleboard areas, rec hall, library, and free cable and wifi (though don’t depend on it, it’s a bit sketchy) They pick-​up empty propane tanks 3 times a week, supply city water (no charge), have a nice pool and hot tub, and a fitness center. Overall, I do recommend. Their prices are better than most in the area too! No military discount though. The neighbors have been really welcoming.
