Overview
The Star RV Polaris 2 is a substantial step up from the JUCY Malibu — at 6.4m it carries a full toilet and shower, self-contained certification, air conditioning, and a 90L fridge. The Malibu has no bathroom and a 50L fridge in a 5.9m van. Both sleep two and allow pets, but the minimum age differs: Malibu from 18, Polaris 2 from 21. For a couple wanting full bathroom independence and air conditioning on a longer trip, the Polaris 2 is the clear choice. The Malibu suits younger travellers or those who want to keep costs down and are comfortable with campsite facilities.
