Plunge Resort is awesome!
Our stay at the Plunge Resort was outstanding in every way. The staff ( Michael- Bartender, Kiki, Patrick and Suezette - front desk, Cynthia & Dwarven- breakfast) are very friendly, professional and committed to making sure every thing is perfect! When we return to Lauderdale it will be the Plunge Resort.

We loved everything about the property and area. The included beach chairs, towels and umbrellas were great. The food and alcohol at the property were less than desirable, especially after seeing the “best breakfast in tow” sign. We ate downtown and the chain breakfast place across the street. Very happy there were other close and amazing options to get food and entertainment..

Friendly staff. Room size for king resort view was nice. Tiki bar was lovely and food was delicious. Two negatives: waited until almost 10:00 am for a beach umbrella. They set up all chairs first and then come by with umbrellas. We were hot. If we had k is this we wouldn’t have gone to the beach at 8:00 am. Materials said they opened at 7. Second negative: no coffee in room.

As this was our 3rd visit. Again, we had an exceptional time. I must extend a special THANK YOU to Jorge. I called 2 days before to request a room upgrade. I wanted an ocean view and was given a courtesy discount for being a repeat customer. Jorge was very pleasant and cordial to our needs. When we arrived our voices met instantly. Throughout the stay Jorge was available for any questions. We had then request to view the Bungalow rooms and he made the time to show us 2 rooms. Thank you Jorge for your pleasant service. We plan to visit again. The last 3 visits were booked via Expedia. The next one will be booked directly via Plunge. The ocean view room was PERFECT the next time we return I want the same room. Once again Plunge resort meets my expectations and we are very thankful. We had a great time. Your food server Bianca is always a wonderful person. We look forward to our next visit. I do have one question. How does it work if the stay was for a month. Just curious.. Thank you everyone. Please be safe with the upcoming tropical storm weather.
