    Promising review: "I was hesitant to buy a bathing suit from Amazon, especially because my bottom half is usually larger in bathing suit sizes than my top. After reading reviews and looking at people's photos of the suit, I decided to purchase it. I am so happy I did. I am so impressed with the quality. The suit is made out of a nice thick comfortable material. If you are thinking about purchasing this definitely do. You will be so happy with this suit!" —Emma

    Promising review: "Love this suit and get compliments on it all the time. Not cheeky at all, and I don’t have to worry about anything popping out while playing in the pool with kids.

    Promising review: "I'm obsessed with this swimsuit!!!! I have been eyeing similar swimsuits all the Instagram bloggers wear (by a brand I won’t name :)) but couldn’t justify spending that much on a swimsuit!

    Promising review: "I bought this suit and absolutely love it! The top is so cute that I've worn it with by itself and received tons of compliments. It fits great and is provides a lot of support, which is nice. The material is thick as well and I felt very comfortable in it. The bottoms are adorable and high-waisted and fit great. It runs true to size and the colors are vibrant. Overall, love this suit!" —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $31.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and in 25 colors/patterns).

    9. A cutout swimsuit that's actually a one piece, but has the illusion of two in the front. This stylish number comes in multiple colors and patterns, too! So I'm thinking one for every day of the week? 🤔

    Promising review: "Super unique style that fits amazingly well. It has adjustable straps to help with that perfect fit. I got the tie dye and the fabric Is good quality, not thin. Has nice padded inserts. The bottom has nice ruched stitching so you can adjust coverage from more coverage to less. I am considering getting another!" —shoppingbear

    Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and in 26 colors).

    10. A flouncy lace-up monokini with details that make it stand out from the rest. The off-the-shoulder top and the lace-up going down the middle!? LOVE!

    Promising review: "As I pushed 'add to cart' on this swimsuit, I did so with an eye roll and a sigh--I've seen this design on a few different sites claiming it's one of the 'great bathing suits' for the summer, but there was no way this was going to work on me, right? Well, I can take back the eye roll and sigh — not only does it fit, but it makes me look dang good. The material on this suit is nice and thick, you can adjust the strings in the front to show more or less skin, and so far it has managed to adequately cover my booty despite me roaming around the house in it to try it out. I'm smitten — surprised too — but smitten." —Rachel green

    Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL, plus sizes 18–24, and in 26 styles).

    11. A long-sleeve rash guard top and high-waisted bottom set that'll eliminate your worries about sun burn and bad tans. The top is pretty dang cute, too!

    Promising review: "Loved this suit! I went to Mexico on vacation and was concerned with getting too much sun. The top was perfect and I was expecting to hate the bottoms but they fit and looked great for my frame! Not only was this functional but super cute and I received a lot of compliments. I also did not get sunburned laying on the beach all day." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in sizes 4–16 and in nine styles).

    12. A bold wrap bikini with high waist bottoms because this particular two-piece set is a #1 best seller with over 11,000 5-star ratings! Reviewers are obsessed with the quality, the quick drying time, and the array of color options.

    13. A scalloped edge bikini set with one chic shoulder strap (because somehow this swimsuit can get even cuter). The matching bottoms are complete with the scallop edge design too, so be prepared to be stopped by strangers who give you non-stop compliments.

    Promising review: "First of all, I never write reviews but this suit is beyond amazing, so I felt like I needed to share! I hate swimsuits, hate shopping for them, and especially hate putting them on. This is by far the most comfortable and adorable suit I have ever put on. I am in love! I sized up and it fits perfectly! I am a mom of three little ones, so I am constantly running around in a suit, and this stays put and, as I mentioned before, it is so comfortable. I want it in all the colors now!!!" —Michael A. Byrd

    Get it from Amazon for $28.66+ (available in sizes S–XL and in seven colors).

    14. flounce top bikini so cute, you'll want to wear the top outside of the water too. It's comfy and comes with high-waisted bottoms!

    Promising review: "100% recommend this to everyone! Such a great price and fantastic quality. Fits perfectly!...It is so hard to find a [great] swimsuit for plus size and rankings are never long enough for my long torso. This swimsuit has definitely fixed that. I’ll be buying a few different bottoms to mix n match."  —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in sizes S–3X and in 24 colors/patterns).

    Promising review: "I haven’t worn a bikini in eight years and this was my first one and I fell in love. The material is of good quality. I am a size 10 and I got a medium. The only thing someone may not like is that it’s a cheeky on the booty, but let that thang do its thang and enjoy the bikini." –Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $19.20+ (available in sizes S–XL and in 23 styles).

    16. A one-shoulder swimsuit with a bow — a sophisticated addition to the best selling Sidestroke one piece from Summersalt. It provides awesome compression so everything stays secure no matter the water (or lounging) activity.

    Promising reviews: "This is my second purchase from this company. I NEVER take the time to leave a review but feel this item is worth the time! This swimsuit is so classy and comfortable. I am not as confident in a swimsuit as I once was.... BUT THIS SWIMSUIT!!! BRAVO!!" –Jennifer

    "Very Sophisticated. Beautifully made and a classic style! Gives great coverage and feels like something Audrey Hepburn would wear." –Alex M.

    Get it from Summersalt for $115 (available in sizes 2–22 and in six colors).

    BTW, there's a two-piece version, too!

    17. A strappy bikini set that'll keep everything in place whether you're going for a swim or sipping a marg by the pool (my vote is for the latter, but you do you boo).

    Promising reviews: "I LOVE this bathing suit...Based on reviews I decided to give this suit a try and I’m glad I did! The straps on the shoulders and in the back are adjustable, and the pads are thick and offer great support. I love the bottoms, too!...I can’t wait to wear it this summer!" —Kate

    "Amazingly comfortable. I generally only buy swim suits from Torrid but took a chance of this one because the design was beautiful...This top was supportive and comfortable. It can definitely accommodate a larger busy as the straps are adjustable. The bottoms were snug but not tight...Also a big plus nothing rolled and the material stayed together without bunching either...needless to say I was very impressed by how well these fit and stayed on." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $35.98+ (available in sizes M–3X and in 12 colors/styles).

    18. A crossover one-piece swimsuit truly meant to be shown off on a tropical vacay with your besties. The unique straps and waist are actually a mesh detail for a cute peek-a-boo moment.

    Promising reviews: "This is seriously the best bathing suit that I have ever worn!! It provides amazing support (which is so hard to find). You won’t be disappointed!" —MrsFoster

    "LOVE LOVE LOVE this bathing suit. It’s sexy yet classy. I wore it on a recent vacation to Hawaii and got a ton of compliments!..Because of how chic it is, you can wear it not just as a bathing suit, but also as a top and style it a ton of ways! Very happy with this purchase!" —Letan A Duson

    Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in sizes 4–16 and 45 colors/styles).

    19. plunging swimsuit that's totally backless (for dramatic effect, of course). This bestseller has over 10,000 positive reviews, too!

    Promising review: "First I want to say that I RARELY write reviews but I am doing so in the hopes that others with my body type (short, plus-sized, AND top-heavy) will find this useful. This particular swimsuit is very well made! The colors are as vibrant as the picture, the material is thick like a typical swimsuit, and the breast area's lining feels as though it is doubled up. I have a size 38 HH (UK)/38 N (US) bra. Now, with that being said, a natural HH/N cup is NOT typical, so I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of coverage that I got. The bottom is full coverage if you don't have much 'under cheek' as I like to call it. I will probably be ordering from them again! 😉" —VA_Gurl

    Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in sizes S–3X and in 23 styles).

    20. A classic black bikini set because it never fails and will never go out of style. It's like the little black dress of the beach! Always dependable and *always* cute as heck.

    Promising reviews: "I’ve tried probably 10+ bathing suits from Amazon looking to find one that fits right, IS NOT a thong, has padding, and ties on the sides and this is it. I bought it in black also because I love how it fits so much. It still has a cheeky bottom but it provides far more coverage than any suit I’ve purchased within the last few years. I highly recommend this suit!" —Mackenzie Lindquist

    "Love this suit. I was looking for a basic triangle suit that I could tie different ways like I saw on TikTok. This top is so cute and the scrunch on the butt of the bottoms is so [nice]. Definitely a staple this summer"  —Sophie M.

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and in 28 colors/patterns).

    21. A pretty swim dress with shorts because it may just be the most comfortable option on this list. Imagine lounging by the water in this?? No cares in the world, just relaxing vibes.

    Promising reviews: "I have never loved a bathing suit as much as this one! It’s so stunning! I love the shorts that come with it, and where it hits right below the bust. It’s a beautiful product...GET THIS! The quality is incredible as well. So comfortable ❤️" —Libby

    "I really love this swimsuit! It’s very cute and sort of retro-looking...I got sooo many compliments! Some even thought it was an actual dress! The shorts fit great, giving my booty lots of room without riding up or down. The bust was just slightly too big in the cups but it was still very comfortable and I had zero mishaps. The straps are adjustable so I just tightened it all up and it was perfect! I felt super pretty in this — that’s something I’ve NEVER said wearing a swimsuit." —Megan

    Get it from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in sizes 12–28 and in 35 colors/patterns).

    22. A reversible lace-up set for when you want multiple options but have limited packing space. How genius is that?

    Promising reviews: "I seriously love this swimsuit...[and] the reversible element. When I wear it on the floral side, a little bit of the stripes show on the edges. When I wear it on the striped side, the straps on the top are floral and bits of the floral show on the bottom. It’s really cute. And the quality is excellent."  —A. Thompson

    "Cupshe has and will remain at the top of my list for best quality at an affordable price for swim suits. I needed last minute options for my trip to Hawaii and ended up picking up this set for one of my picks. I wanted to pack light so being that this was reversible, it covered my needs. Love the design on both sides too!" —AKN

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in four colors).

    23. A THREE-piece mesh bikini set complete with a bikini top, bikini bottoms, and the cutest matching cover-up dress. The dress is totally optional, but how can you not want to fully complete this look!?

    a reviewer poses in the blue set
    another reviewer in pink

    Promising reviews: "I absolutely love this set. The colors are beautiful... and I feel extremely good in this two-piece. I love the thong bottoms aren't your traditional thong, its about three inches thicker so I don't have to worry about it riding up. The cover up is thick enough to have a little spandex support [but] not too thick to be a sweat box on these extremely hot days. I highly recommend." —Anyika

    "I’m not completely comfortable with showing my body but I still wanted to feel like I wasn’t completely covered up during our vacation. This did the trick… I was covered mostly but still felt sexy. Love it." —Crissy

    Get it from Amazon for $23.99+  (available in sizes L–4X and in 39 colors).

    24. retro-style bathing suit with thick, adjustable straps and super supportive underwired cups. I'm calling it now: this will be your new pool party go-to! 

    Promising reviews: "This suit right here is an OMG moment. It is LOVE at first try on. I did not want to take it off, and wanted to just parade all around the house in it!! Great quality and material used...do not hesitate, order this swim suit and fall in love. ITS THAT CUTE." —E & J Push'n wind

    "I love this!!!!! I've never felt confident about my body but this bathing suit is just amazing...I was also able to jump, flip, and swim without worrying that my boobs will fall out." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and in 42 colors/patterns).

    25. A smocked bikini top set complete with adorable patterned bottoms. While my faves are the decked out lemon stems (a summer classic), others like black and white strips, greens leaves, and pink florals are just as cute!

    Promising reviews: "Pleasantly surprised by this swimsuit! I ordered a large and it fits like a large. The material is good I was worried about the top but it’s actually really thick material and feels very supportive." —rhonda

    "I love this suit!...I honestly think its very versatile and would look great on any body type. I was worried about the bottoms being potentially see through but they are very opaque. The top has what I would say is medium support and comes with built in padding. I’m typically very self conscious in a swim suit but this swim suit is very [cute] and makes me feel confident while still being in a cute pretty color/pattern since I usually go for black. I’m seriously considering ordering a second one in a different color!" —Justinbowling

    Get it from Amazon for $32.99 (available in sizes XS–3X and in nine colors/patterns).

    26. A gorge buckled one shoulder bikini set because its prooobably my favorite thing on the list. It's simple, yet elegant and I'm pretty sure compliments are a given when you're wearing it. And if you end up wearing the top with jeans, I don't blame you!

    Get it from Nasty Gal for $17 (originally $34; available in sizes 0–14).

    27. A gingham bikini set because no bathing suit collection is complete without the pattern of the summer. Both the top and bottom feature a tie closure for easy adjustments to your liking.

    Promising review: "I love this bathing suit! The gingham is very cute and can be dressed up with gold accessories or a red lip... the padded top stayed on and the bottoms aren’t too cheeky and I felt comfortable wearing the bathing suit around families and my friends' parents." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $20.99+ (available in sizes XS–L and three styles).
