The Tides Hotel was perfect in every way. The staff was extremely accommodating, friendly, and made us feel totally welcome. So different from pricey high profile resorts in terms of ambience - The Tides is not pretentious at all. Impeccable service and delicious food in the most beautiful setting imaginable. The beach is absolutely fabulous! This resort property has everything anyone could ever want. Our room was beautiful, well maintained, and comfortable. We have been to many, many resorts worldwide, and The Tides is about as good as it gets. We can't wait to go back! If you want a relaxing beach vacation, this is the place to go. Highest recommendation!
