Scam, DO NOT BUY
February 26, 2025

I placed an order on 2/16 with express shipping. It is 2/27 I have emailed 2x, used the website chat, AND Instagram messaged and haven't gotten any response back. Website says shipping can take 1-3 days to process. It is currently day 11, and my order has not shipped, and they are not responding to anything. Safe to say they have stolen my money at this point, especially after reading more reviews. Total SCAM.

Total SCAM
February 4, 2025

Avoid this scam company. I ordered 3 items on Dec 24th. Never received them. Sent two emails to *******@plumeriaswimwear.com on January 25 and February 3th. No response. There is no even phone # to call. Also they keep deleting comments on Insta. Ha. So I filed dispute.

If I could rate this company a ZERO I would. They're a complete scam. They automatically apply a 'Flash Sale' discount to your purchase at checkout. Then, when you go to return the very cheaply made items, you not only have to purchase a $12 return label, but they tell you that you're only eligible for store credit given you purchased the items "on sale". Keep in mind, you are UNABLE to remove the discount code for any items, full price or not. So they force you to purchase their items at a discounted rate, in order to keep your money. DO NOT SHOP HERE. Terrible clothing, terrible customer service, terrible policies. They are also poorly rated on BBB.com and not an accredited company.

File card dispute under misrepresentation to get your refund, Plumeria has a return policy in bad faith that they do not intend to honour because the representative/CEO/Gabrielle Cimon will tell you only after the item is returned that you only receive store credit if your order had a discount code

Except the website runs never ending sales with forcibly applied discount codes you can not remove at checkout, vendors are not legally required to provide change of mind refunds, but saying you will and then preventing customers from doing so is illegal, file a business complaint to the Californian Office of the Attorney General

Hopefully with enough reviews people can see how things work and decide for themselves. Plumeria is constantly on discount and only accepts returns for discounted items as store credits. What they do t tell you is that a store credit is the same as a discount in their system. This means it cannot be used in another discounted item purchase. Essentially forcing the buyer to pay full price for an item after purchasing a discounted item (no matter the reason for return).

I don't recommend purchasing as their products are average at best in my experience, but at least be aware of how their business operates when you order.

Oh my gosh. WORST experience. Do not buy from this company. The gold chains are plastic, the material is so thin and the fit is soooooo bad! My poor sweet husband bought me several suits. I tried them all on and we laughed comparing them to the actual photos online.

So that was bad enough. Then we went to return them and we had to take photos of each piece- then we had to take more photos showing the pieces with the tags, then we had to take more photos of them PROPERLY PUT IN THE cheap little cellophane plastic bags they came in. Trust me, ziploc bags are much higher quality.

Then after PROOF that we didn't wear them (UKKKK! NEVER!) typically I wear Beach Bunny or La Perla- these are like Fredricks of Hollywood crap or something from Amazon for $10.-- Then we had to BUY a return label for $12.00 and then we had to tell the company we bought a return label before we could get the label sent to us.

So don't waste your time and money like we did.
Do NOT buy from this company if you're expecting quality or easy returns.

BEWARE!
January 6, 2023

This company does not allow refunds if you use a promo code, which is why they are always running a promotion.
If you'd like to exchange an item, you must send pictures to have the exchange approved, pay return shipping, pay a $15 restocking fee, wait for a store credit to be issued, and then reorder the replacement item, and pay for shipping again.
The quality of their swimwear is comparable to Shein or Zaful, but at premium prices, and no option to return for a refund. Please DO NOT PLACE AN ORDER and spread the word about their unethical business practices.

Unsatisfied
August 29, 2022

ALERT! When you purchase an item from them make sure it's NOT ON SALE! Meaning if you use a coupon code, it's considered a sale item) They are scammers! I tried to return my item and they said they could not return my money to initial form of payment because it was on sale, so they give you a store credit. They should have said that from the beginning! This way they make you buy something from them even if you don't want it! And then to top it off you CAN'T use the credit for the whole sale amount because they MAKE you pay shipping again! INCREDIBLE!

I purchased three swimsuits from Plumaria online. When purchasing swimsuits online obviously you're not able to try them on. I tried on the swimsuits and they did not fit very well. I kept one of the three. When I returned the other two they provided me an order number for store credit only a few weeks later and that order number never worked. I have sent several emails back-and-forth with them explaining to them that their order number doesn't work and they have not been accommodating whatsoever and helping me get my store credit. I do not recommend the shop if you're trying to buy a bathing suit that you haven't tried on

Cheap products. Bad quality. Shipped only the tops of three bikinis and did not accept any returns since the products were on sale. Canceled the rest of the order (the bottoms) since I was waiting already for three months and did not get my money back. They pretty much exclude everything from returns (items on sale which are always all items on their website; opened packages even when tags are still in place, and so on). Customer service is very slow. They point out they only accept returns within 14 days which is not possible if they need more than one week to answer your request. Address for returns is not shown anywhere on website or within package.
For anyone needing it:
Plumeria Swimwear
Moreland, GA
190 Bridgeport Blvd, Moreland, GA *******

On top of all these issues, they declared the value of the package as almost 300USD. I did not even pay half of that since everything was on sale. In order to receive my package I had to pay another 100€ to customs to later find out that half the items were missing. DO NOT ORDER IN THIS STORE! I CANNOT EMPHASIZE THIS ENOUGH!

Hello. I went by their size guide and it is way wrong! Now I'm stuck with bathing suit tops I can't even wear. The cost of returning/exchanging is more than the items. Research other comments about this company- they have a bad reputation.

Horrible Quality

DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY! If you don't pay full price for their items, they won't give you a refund. NO WHERE does it say that on their website. It says "Final sale items" aren't eligible for a refund. I pre-ordered the swimsuits so they were not final sale. The swimsuits are cheap, crappy material that slide off. Not worth the money at all. Avoid ordering from this company because you will be giving them your money for crappy product that you won't wear and can't get a refund for.

Will not give you a refund.
April 22, 2022

Material and the way the swim suits I ordered was made was not what I expected for the price. But really the biggest issues I had was after I sent in for a refund. I get a few days later respond with nothing helpful after sending emails multiple different times. It has been over 2 weeks since they received the return and I have not received a refund. Refund aside I'm appalled at how long it has taken and how bad the customer service has been.

I ordered 3 suits in January. One stated preorder March 10. It is now April 13th and each month they push it ahead a month. I contacted the company to ask to cancel as I have since had to buy other suits. My response simply said my apologies Love Plumeria. At this point they have my money and almost 4 months later I have nothing. So in a nutshell robbed.

Horrible customer service.
March 29, 2022

I ordered a bikini top and a bottom on 2/17. The top was back ordered til 3/7, which I was fine with because I didn't need this til mid March. The bottoms had no indication of being back ordered on the website or confirmation email. 3/14 I sent them an email asking for an update because it's been a week since the back ordered date.
They claimed the items were "preorder" and release date is 3/20. Which was nowhere to be found on their website at the time of purchase, in my order confirmation email, or the time they claimed it was a preorder.
I asked for a full refund, and never got a response. I assumed they were processing it because their response time is slow and vague. 3/25 they sent an email that the order was processing to ship. I explained my situation again, ask to be refunded and not to ship out the items. Got another vague fake apology, and that they will finally refund me after I refuse the shipment.

Where are my items?
October 28, 2021

I placed an order on October 16th and I have not received a shipping status from them as of today. I sent them two e-mails and tried to connect with them using the messenger feature on the website three days ago to no avail. "Available now. 2-5 days delivered from Texas warehouse" is stated on the website.

I purchased a swimsuit from Plumeria, see photo, and when it arrived I was unsatisfied because the top had a flat wire bar for support and it didn't conform to my body because it was so stiff and hard to move. Even when I tried to conform it, it wouldn't stay where I put it. I reached out and requested a return. To my surprise, it cost $15.25 to ship it back internationally to Turkey from Las Vegas, Nevada. The purchase was only $35 to begin with so I lost $15 for essentially trying on an item. Whats worse is they told me AFTER I shipped it and complained about the high cost to return that I could go ahead and keep the item but it was already sent by that point and they knew this. It would've been helpful if I had been told that when I requested the return... its not like they didn't know that I was from the US, the entire returns process is done via back and forth email where they request photos prior to providing you the return address in Turkey, see attached photo. It also would've been helpful if there were more reviews on items readily available so that I could've got a better idea on the item to begin with prior to making the purchase.

Flat bar that doesn't conform to body. Angled part between breasts digs in.

Return issue/ funds not returned
August 6, 2021

Hi All,
I have purchased a beautiful Magnolia bikini, unfortunately I have lage 32 F natural boobs therefore the wire under the bra was too soft and was not holding the bra in one place.
I will advise plumeria to replace this wire with something stronger.
I have returned the bikini as advised by Plumeria, it was posted on 30th June 2021.
Today's date is the 8th of August 2021 :(( (
I still have not received my return funds even though I have emailed Plumeria a few times to check if they receive the return parcel.
Looks like now I am with no bikini and with no money on my account.
Kind regards!
Upset Customer
