Great stay for the price and location
My mom and I had a great time at Plunge. It had everything we needed for a weekend warm-weather getaway—pool, beach, walkable to restaurants and a Publix. Our room had a mini fridge, microwave, and safe. We had breakfast daily at Octopus restaurant, and our server Cynthia was lovely! The property is a little run down, but it was perfectly clean and safe. We'd absolutely stay here again!

"A great PLUNGE".
The location was great and close to the beach plus it was nice to have the beach chairs and umbrellas delivered to the area of the beach where we wanted to relax. Also, the paintings and photographs on the lobby walls were an added feature to view. staff was friendly and good drinks @ Backflips
Ann, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

first time to the Plunge
Suzette, and Dion were great in answering questions and hosting, however, 25.00 a nite for parking on top of a resort fee, parking for guest should be free, we were terribly disappointed, the convenience of everything was nice, but spending the extra money was a shock , we will not be back

Relaxing Weekend
I recently spent the weekend at the bungalow in Plunge and had a relaxing time overall. The room was functional, and the best part was the easy access to the beach, making it perfect for a beachside getaway. We particularly enjoyed the bar, Backflip, where the service was friendly and the atmosphere lively—definitely our favorite spot. Dining options were limited, with only the coffee shop Bean and barnacle, and a breakfast spot, Octopus, but the food at both was tasty. However, I did feel a bit disappointed with a couple of things. We were charged a parking fee, which felt unnecessary, and the tables in Backflip could have been wiped down better after guests had finished their meals. All in all, the experience was great, and I’d give it 4 out of 5 stars. Despite these small issues, we had a lovely time at Plunge and would definitely consider returning!
