    The location is excellent, with easy access to the beach and great dining options nearby. The staff is friendly and attentive, enhancing the overall experience. However, I would appreciate having coffee makers in the rooms and better availability of pool chairs.

    pool and bar
    air conditioner issue

    Had an awesome time with my friends! The beach access and chill vibes made it perfect. We loved strolling to Anglin's Fishing Pier and hitting up some great cafés with live music nearby. Just a heads-up, the breakfast in the café wasn’t great, but the pool and bar were fantastic!

    One downside was the air conditioner in our room. It blew right at the bed and woke us up a few times during the night. It was a bit uncomfortable.

    plunge beach resort has a fantastic location, just steps from the ocean. the staff was incredibly helpful when we needed a private space for a board meeting. we enjoyed drinks at the beach-facing bar and loved the provided beach chairs. the fitness center was open 24 hours for a great workout!

    The beach access was perfect, and my kids loved the fire pit by the pool. We rented bikes and explored the area. Unforgettable sunset views from our bungalow made our stay magical.

    Felt very special, no complaints at all.

    The location was fantastic, with direct access to the beach and stunning views of the Atlantic. Our large breed dog enjoyed the nearby pet-friendly areas, and the staff made sure we felt welcome. We loved our spacious room, which was clean and comfortable for the whole family.

    My kids wished there were more activities suitable for younger ones to keep them entertained during our stay.

    I had a great time at the resort with its excellent beach access and friendly staff. However, the air conditioning in my room was quite loud, and there were some cleanliness issues in the common areas. It’s perfect for relaxing family vacations but could improve on maintenance.

    great rooms but crowded pool

    The rooms were clean and spacious, providing a comfortable stay for my family. We enjoyed the friendly staff who made us feel welcome, along with the good food and bar service available on-site.

    The pool area felt too small for the number of guests, which impacted our ability to enjoy that space.
