I very much enjoyed my 7 night stay at the Tides. Loved the the ocean view, spacious room, refrigerator. I liked having coffee and and water available for guests. Staff were excellent! Liked being right in town. I found the property very clean including the pool. Very nice coffee shop and tiki bar. Great to have the on site parking too. Thank you.

Staff was very helpful and pleasant

The water pressure in shower was not very good, we did not have a microwave in room, I know it was a beach hotel but sand was literally everywhere!

The prices this property is charging do not reflect within the quality of the rooms. Cleanliness ends at the lobby. Very rundown and has seen better days. If the rates were half the price we paid this would be a different review but regardless the rooms and exteriors need a full re vamp.

Friendliest staff I have ever encountered at a hotel. Best bartenders for sure. The decor is lovely. Hotel is alittle worn down in the rooms. But you definitely overlook that because everything else is awesome!!

Our room had rust on the drawer hardware and lamp. We were near an elevator and it was noisy. Employees were yelling and cussing outside our door. We were only there 2 nights and were offered to move after the first night.

Right in the beach, excellent customer service, restaurant food was delicious … will definitely come back

The pier next door was closed for maintenance. But it is off season.

The property was right on the beach!! Loved it!! Needs some updating but I was told they are starting renovations! Staff was so accommodating! I’m going back. Just when it’s warmer !!

Oceanfront rooms with a small balcony make this a nice place to stay. The room was adequate but dated. Balcony not big enough to put a chair, but nice to leave the sliding doors open and hear the waves. Attached restaurant offered inside/outside seating. Menu very basic.

Staff was great, even found a microwave for our room because we needed on. We did have a slight issue with mosquitoes in our room but it is the south. I felt the hotel was priced to high with an amenities fee. I’m not sure what extra I was paying for, beach service, restaurants, valet service where all pay as you go. That all being said, the staff was great, beach front and convenience to everything was a plus, but with pricing I will probably choose another option for our next visit. Amenities

Staying at Tides overall was good. The staff was friendly. Stayed in better beachfront accommodations that cost alot less and without resort fees.

The staff was extremely welcoming and helpful.
