The '''Malibu Club''' is a [[nightclub]] in [[Vice Point]], [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]] in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]]. It is the only nightclub in Vice City in both of its renditions. The nightclub is near entirely inspired by The Babylon Club from the 1983 film [[wp:Scarface (1983 film)|Scarface]], the film in which most of [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] is inspired from.

The Malibu Club is oine of the places to be in Vice City. As of 1986, a fove man entourage of what appears to be [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Village_people the Village People] (a very famous disco band in the late 70s who dressed in police, construction, military uniforms, etc. as costumes) is performing onstage, and everyone from wealthy, trendy women to [[Los Cabrones|Cuban]], [[Haitians|Haitian]] and [[Sharks]] gang members are in attendance. Civillians from the outside will sometimes come inside the bar to chill out; they can be seen inside the bar, loitering by the entrance. [[Kent Paul]] frequents the club in 1986.
The Malibu Club is one of the places to be in Vice City. As of 1986, a five man entourage of what appears to be [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Village_people the Village People] (a very famous disco band in the late 70s who dressed in police, construction, military uniforms, etc. as costumes) is performing onstage, and everyone from wealthy, trendy women to [[Los Cabrones|Cuban]], [[Haitians|Haitian]] and [[Sharks]] gang members are in attendance. Civillians from the outside will sometimes come inside the bar to chill out; they can be seen inside the club, loitering by the entrance. [[Kent Paul]] frequents the club in 1986.


The club can be purchased by [[protagonist]] [[Tommy Vercetti]] for $120,000, which then unlocks a series of four asset missions. After completing all of the asset missions, the Malibu club generates up to $10,000 in revenue a day. Despite being [[Vercetti Gang]] turf, the [[Vercetti Gang]] does not appear either inside or outside the Malibu Club. Tommy Vercetti's changes to the nightclub include replacing the former bartender (who wears a black and white striped dress and is wearing black shoes and is armed with a stubby shotgun)  with a stripper wearing  a white bikini and a cowboy hat who looks exactly like a stripper from the [[Pole Position Club]] (whether this is the same woman, the two are related or this is coincidence is disputable).

After completing all of the asset missions, the Malibu club generates up to $10,000 in revenue a day. Despite being [[Vercetti Gang]] turf, the [[Vercetti Gang]] does not appear either inside or outside the Malibu Club, presumably to blend in with the city without giving any indication it is a gang front.

The Malibu Club has an office which is located upstairs from the bar. The player can see the whole ground floor of the club from the office. Attempting to enter the office without first buying the club will result in the bartender shooting the player to death. A way around this is to kill the bartender and two bouncers guarding the office before entering. Doing so, however, will give the player a one or two star wanted level. Although there is a large full drinks bar on the ground floor, [[Ken Rosenberg]] has a minibar installed in the upstairs manager's office (possibly for personal use). There is also a small scale model of of [[Colonel Juan Garcia Cortez|Colonel Cortez']] [[Cortez's yacht|ship]] in the upstairs office, along with a chalkboard, wooden table, chairs, black couches and a small coffee table with wine/beer bottles on it. After the completion of [[The Job]], a [[knife]] and the [[Bank Job Outfit]] spawns inside the office, next to the large wooden table.

If the player decides to shoot everyone inside (before they buy the club), the female bartender will try to kill the player with a [[Stubby Shotgun|stubby shotgun]]. Shooting everyone inside the club will bring your wanted level up to 3-4 stars. The SWAT team will come after you from outside (although only regular VCPD officers come into the club). After the player buys the club, Tommy's choice of bartender is unarmed and topless with nipple tape and and the bodyguards will not fight back if Tommy punches them. However, the guards outside will fight back when punched, regardless of ownership.

*It should also be noted that the guards outside the Malibu Club do not wear sunglasses but the guards inside do, which is strange, considering the fact that it should be the other way around.

*The Malibu Club's new bartender looks exactly like the cowboy themed stripper from the [[Pole Position Club]]. Whether this is the same woman, the two are related or this is coincidence is disputable.
