During our recent stay at The Tides Inn, we enjoyed a wonderful experience overall, especially with the fantastic food and beautiful surroundings. The staff, particularly the wine sommelier and our waitress, provided noteworthy service that truly enhanced our visit. However, some minor issues, like shower water pressure at the marina and an alarm disrupting our sleep, prevented it from being perfect. Overall, it's a lovely spot for those looking to unwind and enjoy great dining.

The location is perfect for those looking to unwind by the water, and I particularly enjoyed the sunset cruise. However, while the setting and amenities were impressive, I felt the overall value for the price could've been better-especially when it came to the condition of the room and consistency of room service.
