I had a fantastic stay! Although we only spent one night, we are already planning to return to this place. The staff was amazing, and their communication was impeccable. The city was in the process of making repairs, which meant we would be without power from 9 PM to 4 AM. However, the staff notified us a couple of days in advance via email. When we checked in, the staff reminded us again about the power outage and provided us with a couple of cute lanterns for use during that time. We also received a handwritten thank you card in our room, which we really appreciated as it showed their caring gestures. Our room was perfect and clean, and we definitely plan to return. We enjoyed walking to the beach, and there were plenty of eateries not too far from the hotel.

Property location is near all the restaurants and dew steps away from the beach. We have our well behaved cat with us and they let us stay even if they only let dogs. It was nice 🥰 The man at the reception was outstanding! He is very nice and so helpful, no complaints!

Room is nice and spacious, but it’s really hard to have a good sleep as you can hear all the water pipes from the rooms beside and above us, (our room was in the ground floor) you can hear when they flush the toilet and showering. I wonder if they can invest in sound proofing. It would be great!

This is our 3rd time to The Tides, we chose it primarily due to the close proximity to our son’s apartment. It is perfectly located in easy reach of Heisler Park, Main Beach and the town - all in a few mins walk. The best part is the swimming pool - very clean, with plenty of sun loungers.

It has no sound proofing whatsoever. We could hear every noise our neighbours made. Every noise. So that means they could also hear us!!! This time we were on 2nd floor, the previous two times we were on the ground level and it didn’t seem to be as bad then. It could also do with a spruce up, a little tatty inside the room with paint peeling on the ceiling and old curtain rail mounts still left in place. Also, there were no glasses for drinks and only 2 small cups for the Keurig coffee maker.

We enjoyed our stay at the Tides. For a stay over New Years Eve we were surprised at the price of the room, especially because it included parking for free and there was no resort fee so what they charged is what you paid. The location is amazing and were were able to walk all around the main part of Laguna which is full of restaurants, interesting shops and art galleries. There was easy access to the main beach as well as Cressant Cove that has good snorkeling. The room was quite large and the bed was very comfortable. It has lots of period charm with high ceilings and 1950s tiles. They provided ear plugs but we thought it was very quiet after 8 pm. PCH was suddenly very quiet, and we slept very well. The hotel was full but we didn't hear much from our neighbors.

Size of bathroom.

The staff are lovely and truly care about their property. It feels like a home away from home. The pool is warm, the bbq is hot and the poolside seating is welcoming. Cleaning staff are attentive and welcoming. The front desk staff are very kind and helpful. It’s a 10 minute walk to downtown Laguna Beach and all the amenities. We will definitely return.

This is a PCH motel so if you are expecting a resort it is exactly what it looks like. You will hear cars. The motel has been here a long time so it is quaint and not swanky. It’s perfect if you are looking for a nice spot to stay for a while.

The hotel is in a perfect area for exploring by foot- beach, coffee, restaurant, shops. We loved the room. The destination plates in the dining room were great conversation pieces and fun to look at during meals and downtime. Our kids were desperate to use the pool but unfortunately it was very rainy while we were there. We agreed we would all love to come back another time! The staff was very accommodating and helped make sure we were able to do a late check in when our travels got delayed a bit. All in all, an incredible stay!

Location was great. We walked everywhere. There was a microwave and a small refrigerator which was very helpful to keep drinks and snacks. They also had a Keurig coffee maker and cups. The room was black and white decor with splashes of red. Very pretty. Staff told us all the rooms have a different theme. Very nice staff; pleasant and helpful. Pool area was well maintained and had both sun and shade (we wanted shade). There was a bbq and a bar area with stools also a fireplace with a conversation area. Room AC was wonderful after the unusual heat in Laguna Beach

There was no breakfast. When we asked about it they said they had a bowl of fruit in the office Faucet in tub didn’t shut off-leaked heavily We advised staff

Very accommodating people to work with before arriving and after. Room and premises very clean and neat. Welcoming features thoughtful and important.

Room was very small with minimalist interior decorating. Don't need much, but this room had none. (sparse) Not any (or little) outside signature to identify the hotel, particularly when you're passing by on main road and cannot "slow" down with the flow of traffic.

Clean comfortable room that has everything you need, close to everything in Laguna Beach. Parking is right on the property and safe. Pool area very spacious and the temperature was warm even though the weather was on the cold side.

Since we were beside the laundry room and the drains obviously needed service, our room had a sewer smell when laundry was in use. The hotel did let us use a candle for the smell so that helped.

Excellent location. Close to coffee (shout out to Jedediah and Endless Quest), grocery store, restaurants, beaches, and Heisler park (paths on bluffs above water). Can walk to downtown within 10 minutes and continue down PCH towards other food and shopping if you so desire. The Tides had great service. Would stay again.

Shower drain smelled.
