What guests say
7.7 / 10 · Good on Booking.com, from 81 guest reviews
Tides Inn earns consistent praise for its beachfront location, cleanliness, and — when present — warm, attentive staff, making most guests feel well looked after. However, recurring issues around staff availability, small or poorly cooled rooms, and some misleading oceanfront views suggest the experience can vary noticeably by room and visit. At its price point, a more dependable service standard and better-equipped rooms would be expected.
