The Tides by the Sea

This place was awful. maintenance needs clue. Nothing closed or opens properly. Find a new maintenance technician or get out of the game. clearly no -body here knows how buildings work. I would not call this a safe place to visit, I have begun to love hate. And this not a normal for me. Feeling as though everyone is agent me and I may end my life. I hate this world.

The Tides By The Sea is awesome. Our stay was super pleasant and great and the Studio we had was very comfortable and well supplied. It had a scenic view of the ocean and the beach access was only a short walk away. The owners gave wonderful recommendations of restaurants and shopping places. After checking out, we received a call saying we left an attache case behind. The owner sent it priority mail the next day. We've never experienced this much consideration by a member of the hospitality industry. We had a wonderful experience at Tides By The Sea and would stay again!

We’ve stayed at The Tides for over 30 years, Stayed in many different rooms. Each room is privately owned so the decor and renovations are unique to each suite. Some are beautifully appointed and kept up well. But on our recent stay (July 2022) we stayed in a “cottage” across from the pool. #124. DON’T STAY THERE. Although it was charming enough (and who can argue with staying at the quiet end of the prom in Seaside!), the room is in desperate need of some TLC. Some examples: the fridge, whose temperature could not be adjusted, was so warm, our milk curdled. The beds are dreadful (squeaky and very “hammocky”. The patio door screen does not close. The vertical blinds by the patio door were difficult to slide and several panels fell off. The shower looks very grungy. If you can find an upgraded unit to rent, go for it! I love The Tides, but #124 this year was extremely disappointing.

Room was clean and adequately supplied with amenities and kitchen items. Great location away from the action but still a 15 min. walk into center of town. Pool was even heated, mid-April! Picnic table in center courtyard with BBQs available was a nice touch. CONS: Bedding was horrible! Flimsy and cheap top cover--not even sure it qualified as a quilt. No real blankets in the unit. One cheap pillow on each bed with sheets that seemed old and lacked any crisp freshly washed feeling. Sliding door needed servicing and was hard to push open. Bedrooms had pocket doors and one was off the track or something making it difficult to use.
