We loved this motel. Our charming room was very clean and even had a fireplace. Great salt-water pool with plenty of chairs. (didn't have to sit right next to other guests) Free parking eliminates tipping a valet and I like keeping an eye on my car. Last but not least was the BED. Not too hard - not too soft... more

Stayed one night here during Memorial Weekend. Took the last room that they had as it was not booked in advance and many other hotels were sold out. The place is nicely decorated and clean. I stayed in a room that was the closest to Pacific Coast Highway (201) so it was noisy and I wouldn't get that room again.... more

This hotel is not upscale, trendy, or cliffside with an ocean view. This is actually a motel on the PCH just a few blocks north of the main beach. I did not want to pay $350/night, just 130. We had 2 rooms on the ground floor for 2 nights. What I really liked was the location. It was half a... more

We stayed here at Tides Inn for the convenience of attending our Sons wedding. We arrived in our room several hours before to be able to sit back relax and get ready. To my surprise, the room was beautifully kept. More than I had expected. For the money, I thought we were just paying for a small room. It to... more

Reading some of the other reviews people seem to have some odd expectations of this place. It's a roadside motel folks, not the Hyatt resort. That being said, my wife and I had a wonderful time here. We came here in January for our friends' wedding. When we made our reservations we opted to pay a little extra to get... more

I booked a two night stay in Laguna as a getaway. First of all the hotel is on the opposite side of the Pacific Coast Highway from the beach, so if you have a room with a view, it is a view of the street and hotel across the street or a view of the alley. You cannot see the... more

My wife and I drove round California/Arizona for one month in January/Feb of 2008. We didn’t have a room booked in Laguna Beach so we headed to Tides Inn on a LP recommendation. It is on the main road but there was no problem with noise. We got a really nice room as the lady said there was an internet... more

Our family of four (two teenagers) stayed for four nights at The Tides Inn. We travel extensively as a family and have come to prefer unique, tasteful, and clean properties as opposed to overpriced resorts that can make you feel ripped off for what you get in return. I'm pleased to see that our kids have come to the same... more

My sister and I took our girls for Spring Break. What a great little motel. It was so clean and the owner is wonderful. I found myself hanging out on our front porch or at the pool, instead of going to the beach. It was great. We will definately be going back. It was a very short walk to the... more
