Camping World’s Guide to Luxury RVs

RV camping is already a significant upgrade from tent camping and sleeping on the ground. But once you experience the comfort and ease of a traditional RV, it’s only natural to consider RVs with even more luxurious amenities. 

All RVs can be your home away from home, but few can turn heads like the best luxury RVs. Luxury RVs offer the chance to explore in style, with posh living spaces and unique amenities you won’t find on other campers.

If you’re looking for an RV that redefines glamping, luxury motorhomes and towables can’t be ignored. So let’s explore whether they’re the right option for you. 

What is a Luxury RV?

Luxury RVs aren’t necessarily defined by RV types. For example, there are luxury fifth wheels, travel trailers, toy haulers, and all types of motorized RVs. Some of their common traits include: 

Spacious floorplans, usually with multiple slide-outs Top-of-the-line, plush RV furniture Premium construction materials and components Residential appliances Unique amenities (rooftop lounges, fish tanks, underbelly vehicle storage, etc.)

In addition, many RVs that are built to go off-road fall into the luxury category. This is because they must feature higher-grade construction than traditional RVs, as well as include amenities like solar panels, upgraded suspension and shock absorption, and higher ground clearance. 

Why Choose a Luxury RV?

For years, the idea of retiring and traveling the United States has held massive appeal. If you’re ready to sell your home and move into an RV full-time, luxury RVs offer the ability to travel in style without sacrificing the comforts of home. 

But even if you’re not a full-timer, luxury RVs provide the most glamorous way to explore the country with your home on your back. They are also ideal for seasonal RV living and snowbird RVers that like to change locations every few months in search of their own Endless Summer

How Much Do Luxury RVs Cost?

On average, a luxurious RV can cost anywhere from $40,000 up to $2,000,000. That said, you’ll find truly indulgent models that surpass the high end of that threshold. In many cases, considering a luxury RV purchase is similar to buying a permanent residence.

Where Can Luxury RVs Camp?

The short answer is almost anywhere! Because they’re equipped with more luxury amenities than standard recreational vehicles, luxury RVs are suited for everything from national parks to off-grid boondocking to luxury RV resorts across the US

Luxury RVs also come in many lengths. They aren’t all 40-foot behemoths that you’ll have a hard time fitting into narrow campsites. You’re really only limited by your imagination and travel goals.
