The Tides Inn

The Tides Inn is definitely a place to go to frequently. Great venue, service, amazing restaurants, great water options, gym facility is brand new, and all staff are very enjoyable. It is a place that you don't want to leave.

Just enjoyed a fabulous few days at this lovely property. The grounds are beautiful. Our room - a king vista suite on the 3rd floor - was well appointed, quiet, and very comfortable. The grounds are well maintained and the Shoreline Trail along Carter's Creek was wonderful to walk each day. The property is located at the end of the street and it is so peaceful and quiet in the evenings. It really was so relaxing and tranquil. The service was impeccable. Every staff member we met was so friendly and helpful asked if we needed anything. The pool was nice on these hot July days and the staff at the Fish Hawk Oyster Bar kept checking on us to refresh our drinks and/or bring us food. The entire property seemed very well maintained and clean. While the price was on the higher end, it did not seem unreasonable given the great service and well appointed property. We will definitely return, again and again!

The Tides Inn is a gem - serene and beautiful location with an outstanding view of Carter Cove leading into the Rappahannock River, which the grounds and restaurants take full advantage of. Even on a somewhat rainy weekend like we experienced, the atmosphere is so relaxing - and the service was top-notch our entire stay.

The tides Inn has a lovely location. The staff are always friendly and receive you well. Facility and the grounds are kept up as well as they possibly can be but there's a few shortcomings. The pool needs an overhaul, his cars with filtration system, and his tiling The beds were quite hard, and the mattress is very uncomfortable and the pillows were awful. Additionally, the fixtures needed some upgrades.. Cleanness of the facility was good. The price point was ridiculous, given the expense and the quality shortfalls that existed within the experience. The restaurant, unfortunately served barely edible food, I understand Fishhawk has better food than the main dining and next time I have dinner, I may eat it there In summary, the tides Inn has a lovely location. It is slowly getting outdated, and they are struggling to keep it up. The staff are always friendly and nice. The food is awful so don't go there to eat. Value for money well below average

The Tides Inn was lovely! I struggle whether to give 4 or 5 stars but had to take one off because of some lack of service (see below). We went during the heat wave this past week. That meant we really didn’t take advantage of everything as it was just too hot (we didnt take the bikes out and only briefly went out on the water in a kayak). Most of our time was spent by the pool. We couldn’t wade in the river as there were an abundance of small jelly fish. Still, it was a relaxing few days. Note, if you want to do the big activities like taking a chartered boat out you need to book in advance. Service was a mixed bag unfortunately. We loved that housekeeping took note of our needs. We left our glasses in our room and returned to both pairs neatly laid on a Tides Inn branded glasses cloth with a lens wipe. My iPhone cord was neatly wrapped in a Tides Inn branded Velcro tie. They left banana chips, chocolate cherries, and gummy bears for snacking and beverages in the fridge. All five star. At the pool though it often felt like we were ignored while others got more attentive service for drinks and food. Not sure why. When we did get the servers attention it was fine but it felt like they needed a little more attention there. Food was good. Note if you book the bed and breakfast package it’s just a daily credit. Which was fine… Overall a really nice trip.
