I loved this motel. Front desk was friendly and knowledgable about things to do in Laguna with advice on directions and free transportation. The Tides Laguna was in walking distance of the beach, shops, restaurants and Pageant of the Masters. I was upgraded to a second floor room which was spacious with a full kitchen and a quaint dining area with a full table and chairs and antique plates from various state on the wall. The beds and pillows were extremely comfortable, the rooms were immaculate with plenty of air conditioning if needed. Plus,there was free parking a must in this busy beach town. I will definitely, book another stay at The Tides Laguna Beach in the future.

Awesome place.

They have such clean, nice and comfortable space. The pool and grill area is awesome and clean. Anderson is truly awesome i believe he is the manager. Is helpful and so polite. Ran into a slight issue with the plumbing and he was all over it. Also it is literally walking distance from the beach and main entrance to the park. Couldnt have asked for more.

Easy, Breezy Motel!

Great little motel in Laguna Beach within walking distance to beach and town. We wanted an easy staycation where we could park by our room, bring our own drinks to the pool and walk to restaurants and the beach. The Tides checked all the boxes. We also had a kitchenette which was a bonus. Would definitely recommend if you want something simple and reasonable.

Highly Recommend

Housekeeping wasn't done cleaning my room when I arrived, so they offered me another room, which turned out to be a spacious suite that was quiet and comfortable despite facing the street. Excellent restful stay, walking distance from the beach and Pageant of the Masters.
