I love staying at Tides Inn. We have been there several times. It’s quiet and the beach access makes it the perfect spot for early morning coffee and sunrises. The rooms have everything you need but a little updating (specifically the beds) would make it the perfect place to stay. Tides will always be one of my favorite hotels in this area.

This is a very basic little place but William and Scarlet are amazing and the location can't be beat. You're just far enough away from the larger hotels to avoid a crowded beach, yet close enough to walk to amenities. They put out the beach chairs and umbrellas for you(no charge) and they have bikes you can also use at no charge. We really enjoyed our stay!
