Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The Tides is situated right on the beach. Great views from all of the rooms. Nice restaurant on site. The staff was exceptional. Very welcoming and attentive. The room was good. Clean and plenty of room. The slider doors are older. Didn’t slide very well and the UV protection film bubbled here and there. But overall, great place to stay. Walkable to several good restaurants. Easy drive to Charleston and the airport.

Great location and lovely pool. Staff is super friendly and helpful. The property is aging and needs some updating but it gets the job done. No gym but beach is flat and runnable.

Disliked: Staff & service
Arrived on 4/20 early. The room wasn't ready yet. We wanted to go into the restaurant and have something to drink while we waited. The host wouldn't let us sit in the restaurant outdoor area even though it was not busy. The cleaning staff did not understand the things we were asking for. The TV didn't work & had to be switched out. Only 2 elevators, 1 broke & there was a line of 20 or more people waiting to get on. The one working elevator was being used by cleaning staff making it very very slow. I asked at the front desk if they could tell the staff to wait moving their big carts around until the elevator was fixed. That didn't happen.
