The Tides Inn is a charming cute resort with a great location looking out over the water. The rooms and all the facilities have been recently renovated and were all in great shape. The room we stayed in was especially well done, with tasteful modern decor, great bed and pillows, gorgeous view of the harbor, and a well stocked fridge (with complimentary sodas, juice, and water). We didn't have a bathtub, but enjoyed a fine shower. The grounds are in very good shape and well kept up; the garden is new and coming along nicely (but half is still being built out). The bar and restaurants served great dishes, but are both quite pricey. We took advantage of the free cruiser bikes to visit the town, which is very small did not take long to explore. The Historic Christ Church was the most historically interesting feature in the area ($20 to visit). The resort's activities were not all available when we were there in the middle of the week, but that was fine as they are quite pricey too. Overall, the Tides Inn was perfect for us for a two-night respite/getaway from the city.. If one had a group/family along, it certainly would make a pleasant place to stay, especially with its cute little beach (conveniently next to the pool) great for toddlers and little ones.
