When we booked the Tides it was rate No 2 on Trip Advisor. By the time we arrived it had gone out of the top ten. Seems like the Tides got derided for the renovation and the service. We never saw it before the renovation but most of the negative comments were about the over crowded & over the top... more

My wife and I spend two nights in Miami Beach after a wonderful trip to Turks and Caicos and had a wonderful stay at the Tides. We knew we wanted to stay in the Art Deco part of town rather than The Ritz or Loews... The Tides has the best location on Ocean Drive and the recent remodel is amazing.... more

we had stayed previously and loved it then, but this time was even better. The Tides is a really elegant and classy hotel and the staff are so attentive, friendly, helpful and charming. After a long, delayed flight we eventually pulled up outside the hotel in our hire car and received such a welcome that, within minutes, we felt so... more

We just came back from three days at the Tides. To tell the truth, I was half expecting the usual boutique hotel: funky design and rather lousy service. I was surprised to discover a true 5 star hotel, worthy of the best Four Seasons or Hyatts out there. I'm hard to please hotel-wise but the Tides couldn't be faulted. Attention... more

Arrived on a wet miserable day to this oasis. Really impressed with the greeting and made to feel totally comfortable. Whilst we liked our large room we decided to be greedy and upgrade to a suite. The manager was really accommodating and patient as we wanted to get it right. The hotel decor was fresh, airy whilst still retaining the... more

What a fantastic hotel! Quite small with only around 35 rooms but all have ocean views. Recently refurbished the hotel is in excellent condition. Loved the roof top gym which was great use of the space and enjoyed the outdoor training. Small but very good quality equipment. The staff are outstanding, especially Eduardo and his team on reception. Liked the... more

My husband and I were looking for a relaxing weekend getaway. We got it at the Tides!! I called the 1-800 number and booked the summer serenity package that included drinks upon check in and complimentary breakfasts each day. Upon arrival we are complimentarily upgraded to a suite. Room is big and beautiful. Nice flat panel TV on the wall.... more

Having reviewed this hotel 3 years ago and having stayed here numerous times since that review, I was looking forward to returning again to the new renovation. What a letdown. This fantastic hotel has been ruined by overdesign and an aire of pretentiousness exemplified by key employees. Upon check-in, having specifically requested a higher level floor (I'm familiar with the... more

The Tides used to be my favorite hotel in South Beach. Unfortunately, it has been redecorated (by a woman from a reality television show) and the hotel has lost a great deal of its unique sexy magic. The rooms, while huge, feel hollow and cold, and the lobby is completely overdone, as though it were a Palm Springs showroom. The... more
