Don't stay at The Tides - Our Experience
Our stay was awful. As soon as we walked in we noticed the filthy circle carpet, lifted it up and saw a ring of dirt on the floor. The front desk came in and vacuumed (not cleaned). The picture shows the floor after we asked for it to be cleaned - my wife wiped the floor. Once the front desk attendant left. We had to ask for our room to be cleaned the next day. When we returned to our room, the door was left open so anyone could've walked in and taken our belongings. Of the four bathroom towels we received, one had large dirt stains all over it. Late Saturday night in the grass area outside everyone's rooms, there was a party going on with people running back and forth along the hallways keeping our 1 year old up and our dog barking at the people coming by our door. When we called security they arrived about an hour later and we heard the next morning the security officer said it wasn't loud when he arrived, so he did nothing. It cemented the fact that we should get a travel trailer. Do not spend your hard-earned money here.

Door has large gaps you can hear everything from outside. Window has no insulation to cover up noise. You can hear nearby services through air conditioning vent.

I like the convenience to the beach. While room was clean and updated, room was drafty. Needed shower curtain as half wall did not work well in keeping water from going on floor. Also, need additional towel racks.

2/10 Poor

We were forgotten about and ended up with late check in, even though we were there at 2 30. Our tvs didn't work, and we were sent a technician to help that was unable to get any of them in the cottage to work. Compared to the photos, everything in the cottage was just dirty and worn down. Staff was very friendly though.

We stayed for a family trip. Room was exactly as pictured. They are doing some remodeling so parking is limiting. Due to train containers in parking lot. Bathroom is small and no where to hang wet swimsuits. Upon checking in I was early by a few hours and was told they will text when room is ready. However, never received a text. Next morning I went to take a shower but no hot water. I contacted the front desk by text. Due to no direct line to front desk. After a few minutes, I was told maintenance will be working on it. Approximately 30 minutes later I received another text that hit will be back on in 15 minutes. By this time I took a cold shower. I’m not a happy camper.
