At The Tides Inn, travellers praise the scenic waterfront setting, friendly service, abundant on site activities, and comfortable rooms, while noting occasional dining inconsistencies and prices, some noisy rooms, and sporadic staffing or housekeeping lapses.
Recent renovations are noted, though parts of the property and event spaces still appear dated to some guests. Families note limited kid friendly grab and go food, and a few fees or billing issues were frustrating. Overall, it suits travellers seeking a relaxing resort experience, as long as they choose room type carefully and check current dining arrangements.

Facilities
Wide range of waterfront amenities and activities, including the cove cruise, boardwalk, pool and beach, bikes, classes, and golf; some areas are under renovation. Event spaces and a few public areas feel dated, and parking transport or lighting could be improved.

This is a beautiful facility on Carter's Creek. We had a great time walking around the property, drinks at the pool bar, champagne on the lawn and dinner at The Chesapeake restaurant. The beds/pillows were superb resulting in a good night's sleep.

The view and the boardwalk are beautiful. Our room was very nice, with the Carter’s Creek view and the balcony. We will love to come back! The food was excellent in the main restaurant. Superb staff at the Inn, like Alysa, Dawn, and James Eaton. For improving: Fish Hawk kitchen and service capacities, really insufficient and understaffed. After 70 minutes waiting, we had to leave without lunch. Poor management of the situation in the restaurant. Although, James helped to manage the situation and helped us to get something to eat, before our Cove Cruise. That is also a must: the Cove Cruise. Mike is a great guide. The Tides Inn is a spectacular place for relaxing, enjoy the view, and celebrate a special occasion. We will definitely recommend it!

Absolutely amazing. Staff was so nice. We were there for our anniversary. They brought champagne and strawberries to our room. Food and drinks were amazing. Pool & beach were nice too. Being able to come to the property via boat is pretty cool. It’s a little pricey, but you kind of expect that for the type of accommodations and the area.

The Tides Inn was the perfect getaway for R&R which I needed. It is fairly remote but once you are there it is a slice of heaven. Lots to do if desired. Only comment is Chesapeake Restaurant should have a nightly dinner special as the menu never changes. When you are there all week it’s difficult. It forced us to go off premise a night which was fine. It is not inexpensive. Staff is incredible- top to bottom! This will be an annual visit for us!

You do have a golf cart available in the front of the hotel. You really should have someone drive people to & from the parking lots. A few times coming in to the hotel at night there is insufficient lighting and no-one ever to ride you back from the parking lots.

The Tides Inn enjoys a beautiful location with scenic grounds and a lovely view of the creek. The property is tired but is undergoing some renovations. Our room was dated and the shower leaked terribly but it was clean with nice amenities. We ordered room service for breakfast and dinner and the food was a major disappointment. Our breakfast order arrived quickly but the tray was missing mugs and cream for the coffee, as requested. The orange juice was also missing and the food was not prepared in accordance with our request. I ordered oatmeal, plain, with no sugar or toppings. It arrived covered in brown sugar that had turned into syrup. But the dinner order was the worst. It was barely edible. I ordered pasted with pesto and shrimp. There was not one shrimp in the dish and the pesto sauce was extremely thick and heavy and looked like the Grinch vomited on a plate. There was more sauce than pasta and it tasted awful. It was disgraceful. We were also there at the hotel to attend funeral service in the Cove Room. The function room is so dated and should not be in service. In addition to being dark, dingy, and tired, the light bulbs (that worked) were blinking, the weather stripping on the door was gone and freezing cold air was coming in, and the banquet chairs were all stained. It was very sad. I will commend the staff though for being rapidly responsive when things were brought to their attention.

Wonderful little getaway with the family. Carpet in the room appeared dingy, but overall the room was great. The kids split a meal at the Chesapeake restaurant and we were charged a $7 fee for splitting, which seemed outrageous given how much we were spending there. Staff by the pool and Fish Hawk were very attentive and friendly. Cove cruise was wonderful.

Tides Inn have very friendly & accommodating staff. They all are were very cordial & willing to help. We took the sunset cruise & had a fabulous & knowledgeable Captain. The cheese platter had only a few utensils & no napkins. The few crackers were stale & the rest of platter presentation looked like the cheese was thrown on the plate.It seems they are low of staff in the dining areas for we had to wait a long time for our food. The pool bar was exceptionally understaffed so much so that we had to cancel the appetizer order to make another appointment. The 2nd day, I had to go to the front desk twice to have our room cleaned. We found our patio door had been left open all day while we were gone.We had secured it before leaving. The door left open was abominable for anyone could have come into our room. We found they made the bed and then left the rest of the room uncleaned. I told the main desk and returned 2 hours later to find it still was not cleaned. I was told by the House Manager that housekeeping had gone home for the day which was a very very poor response to such BAD service. Eventually, the room was cleaned by the House Manager & available staff while we waited outside at 9:00pm. He did make an adjustment of $150.00 to our bill which was a "nice" gesture. However, for the price of the room, I would have expected better service. The environment is noisy for there are many families with children of all ages running about. Sadly a poor review for only a 3day stay!

The location, view, and amenities are amazing. The rest, not so much. The food has become incredibly overpriced, my final bill was wrong for a second time in a row, and many of the rooms are very loud, either due to other guests (there are no quiet hours) or because the room's heating/cooling system sounds like a jet engine taking off. Don't think we'll be back.

Although, James helped to manage the situation and helped us to get something to eat, before our Cove Cruise. That is also a must: the Cove Cruise. Mike is a great guide. The Tides Inn is a spectacular place for relaxing, enjoy the view, and celebrate a special occasion. We will definitely recommend it!

Tides Inn have very friendly & accommodating staff. They all are were very cordial & willing to help. We took the sunset cruise & had a fabulous & knowledgeable Captain. The cheese platter had only a few utensils & no napkins. The few crackers were stale & the rest of platter presentation looked like the cheese was thrown on the plate.It seems they are low of staff in the dining areas for we had to wait a long time for our food. The pool bar was exceptionally understaffed so much so that we had to cancel the appetizer order to make another appointment. The 2nd day, I had to go to the front desk twice to have our room cleaned. We found our patio door had been left open all day while we were gone.We had secured it before leaving. The door left open was abominable for anyone could have come into our room. We found they made the bed and then left the rest of the room uncleaned. I told the main desk and returned 2 hours later to find it still was not cleaned. I was told by the House Manager that housekeeping had gone home for the day which was a very very poor response to such BAD service. Eventually, the room was cleaned by the House Manager & available staff while we waited outside at 9:00pm. He did make an adjustment of $150.00 to our bill which was a "nice" gesture. However, for the price of the room, I would have expected better service. The environment is noisy for there are many families with children of all ages running about. Sadly a poor review for only a 3day stay!

Absolutely amazing. Staff was so nice. We were there for our anniversary. They brought champagne and strawberries to our room. Food and drinks were amazing. Pool & beach were nice too. Being able to come to the property via boat is pretty cool. It’s a little pricey, but you kind of expect that for the type of accommodations and the area.

The location, view, and amenities are amazing. The rest, not so much. The food has become incredibly overpriced, my final bill was wrong for a second time in a row, and many of the rooms are very loud, either due to other guests (there are no quiet hours) or because the room's heating/cooling system sounds like a jet engine taking off. Don't think we'll be back.

The Tides Inn was the perfect getaway for R&R which I needed. It is fairly remote but once you are there it is a slice of heaven. Lots to do if desired. Only comment is Chesapeake Restaurant should have a nightly dinner special as the menu never changes. When you are there all week it’s difficult. It forced us to go off premise a night which was fine. It is not inexpensive. Staff is incredible- top to bottom! This will be an annual visit for us!

We love the Tides Inn! Our only consistent issue with the resort is the lack of kids snacks/food options. Aside from the full restaurant (which we did attend and love), there are no other quick grab food options. The "shop" has minimal snack options and to be a "family friendly resort", I think they really need to invest in more kid options that are accessible to everyone. Overall, great stay but just to prepare to bring your own kid stuff unless you want to leave the resort.

The Tides Inn enjoys a beautiful location with scenic grounds and a lovely view of the creek. The property is tired but is undergoing some renovations. Our room was dated and the shower leaked terribly but it was clean with nice amenities. We ordered room service for breakfast and dinner and the food was a major disappointment. Our breakfast order arrived quickly but the tray was missing mugs and cream for the coffee, as requested. The orange juice was also missing and the food was not prepared in accordance with our request. I ordered oatmeal, plain, with no sugar or toppings. It arrived covered in brown sugar that had turned into syrup. But the dinner order was the worst. It was barely edible. I ordered pasted with pesto and shrimp. There was not one shrimp in the dish and the pesto sauce was extremely thick and heavy and looked like the Grinch vomited on a plate. There was more sauce than pasta and it tasted awful. It was disgraceful. We were also there at the hotel to attend funeral service in the Cove Room. The function room is so dated and should not be in service. In addition to being dark, dingy, and tired, the light bulbs (that worked) were blinking, the weather stripping on the door was gone and freezing cold air was coming in, and the banquet chairs were all stained. It was very sad. I will commend the staff though for being rapidly responsive when things were brought to their attention.
