We were stuck with a 30 amp site in FL for 2 months last Feb and March. We do have an EMS. Basement air with 2 compressors. Worked fine for us but like I said we have an EMS. Had 31' Bounder, 30 amp and 1 AC unit, that also worked fine for us in FL. That's us, maybe won't work for others.
Pretty sure a 30 amp supply should provide 30 amps. Don't even talk about 80%, blah, blah, blah. That applies to continuous duty loads in commercial, industrial wiring. Even then the wiring and breakers will supply 100%. NEC says only plan for 80% if continuous duty loads.

i interpreted the OP as they found an RV they like but have not yet purchased. without an Energy Mgmt System to manage the 24-available amps two AC units would be hard pressed to run simultaneously.
keep looking.
