The Tides Inn

When we arrived, our bathroom had leftover hair from another guest. During our stay we had to call to have our room cleaned. The pool was not properly treated, it was cloudy and gross and the pool chairs are stained. The quality and cleanliness of the facilities and room are not commiserate with what you pay. With that said, the valet is complimentary. The the add-on activities and spa treatments were really great. The food was great, albeit expensive. The staff are all wonderful. We probably won't be going again.

We have been to The Tides Inn many times, but this time was by far the best! There were 8 of us traveling together on 3 different boats, so we had use of the marina as well as the resort amenities. My husband and I actually booked a guestroom for 2 nights, but the others stayed on their boats. From the welcome we received when docking, to the excellent food and service at Salt and Meadow, every single thing exceeded expectations! Thomas, the dining room manager, was amazing, and made our whole experience more fun! Sam, our server, who reported being fairly new, was wonderful as well. Joey, out by the pool could not have been more attentive! Constantly bringing fresh ice for our drinks, etc, without being asked. Pete was amazing behind the bar at Fish Hawk, too. And, we had told the concierge, (Nancy, I believe) had called us ahead of our stay to see if there was anything she could help with. When we told her that we thought it would be fun on our second night to order in Chinese Food and enjoy it in the Tide's Inn Library, she said she would make note of it, and had dishes, silverware and serving pieces all set up for us! All in all....couldn't have been better!

Great facilities, friendly staff, good food. We have stayed at the Tides Marina several times and have always enjoyed it.

Have stayed twice now, first trip was part of a girls "moms weekend away" trip, and second was with my husband and 3 kids (all under 3), both were equally fantastic. Such a special and lovely place, very Americana in the best way. Food is delicious, service is great, and atmosphere is high end. I'm not sure there would be enough to do with kids over 5, but it is perfect for little kids. We left and immediately booked our return trip for next year.

TLDR: We had a heavenly stay at the Tides Inn! Everything was lovely and we can't wait to come back! We chose the Tides Inn for our babymoon getaway and had such a wonderful time. The whole resort feels luxurious and beautiful, from the immaculate landscaping to the beautifully maintained trails and boardwalk. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and we loved all the thoughtful little touches that made this resort stand out - like the little snacks in the room and the wonderful treatment our dog got with her own bed, bowls, toys, etc! The customer service was outstanding and we were greeted with friendly smiles everywhere we went. I definitely recommend grabbing a seat at the bar where the expert bartenders whipped up delicious cocktails and mocktails. At the pool, the staff was so courteous and helpful, making sure we had everything we needed! And overall we just felt really welcome everywhere and had great conversations with folks all around the property - you can really see how hard people work to make sure you have a great time. The facilities were in excellent condition; we could always find a nice spot by the pool or a quiet pair of Adirondack chairs to take in the sunset. We loved all of the included activities, and while we didn't get to partake in any of the add-in excursions, we were really impressed with the offering they had - art classes, boat trips, paddleboard yoga, etc. I don't think it's possible to be bored here! And the food was excellent too - both at the casual Fish Hawk restaurant by the pool (maybe the best fish & chips of my life!) and the higher end Salt & Meadow, where we were blown away by the crab cakes and lobster. The whole resort is so tranquil and quiet, and we felt so relaxed and happy here. Such a memorable experience, we can't wait to come back as a family of three someday!
