Overall it was nice for the price, but didn’t see it to be as great as others made it out to be. Parking is tight so don’t bring a large vehicle.

I loved my stay at the Tides!! It’s a wonderful jewel in Laguna. Near galleries and the pacific coast trail. An easy walk to downtown and the beach. My room was impeccable and loved the vintage touches in my room the little dressing room and vanity. Updates made it fresh and clean, thick towels and lots of hot water. A personal note from the manager was a nice personal touch. In room coffee was dark roast and that’s perfect! So many details were attended to! Thank you Sara and Anderson at the front desk, and the staff in housekeeping were amazing - thank you for your attention to detail. I’ve already made a reservation to return again! I loved this spot ❤️
