Loved that there was plenty of parking. Room was updated and clean. We could hear every step above us from the 2nd floor, but once they went to sleep, it was fine. Towels felt cheap, but overall, we were very happy and would stay there again.
The room was very clean, well appointed. I got a room with corner windows with a great view of the waves, beach, and sunset. Great location. Courteous staff. Will stay again.
Stop looking. This is the hotel you want to book for your family and dog. Free parking in Pismo?! Yes please! Location is perfect, 2bed/2 bath was clean and more than we could ask for! Thank you Tides! You’re our new go to now!
Check in staff was so friendly, professional, and thorough. Room was amazing! Exceptionally clean and amenities were perfect! The entire hounds were so clean, spacious and very comfortable! We will be back!
Our room was very clean and ready for us! The Tides has always been our place to stay before and after renovations. We the location! The views are stunning. We love.
Everything about this place was fun. It was clean. The staff were great and I highly recommend it. My mother-in-law might even want to book a whole family reunion there.
I had an amazing stay at this cozy little cottage in Pismo Beach. The space was clean, comfortable, and had a relaxing, homey feel from the moment I walked in. It’s just a short walk from the beach, making it the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the ocean.
Beautiful property! Was extremely impressed of the location and ease of parking. Room had AC included and coffee in room and lobby area. Will stay at again.
