The Tide’s Out

The Tide’s Out

10/10 Excellent
"This is an absolute gem. The staff are incredible and very helpful. From the outside, the property has the earmarks of a motel, although very neat and clean with cedar wood facing. Then, you open the door into your room and you are transformed into a high quality hotel setting. Large king sized bed, 60 inch tv and a tidy, modern kitchen with new amenities. The bathroom is very modern, but the telling aspect of any hotel are the towels for me. Large, comfortable and expensive. This place hits the mark for quality at a very reasonable price. I was very surprised and equally impressed. The location is also a big plus. Based beside a busy road, but quiet inside with windows and shades. A great place."

"The cottage and little enclosed community was lovely but the communication with the host was poor. I did not get a reply back to any messages sent during my stay from the host. The host messaged me that dryer is out of order 2 days before check in and he said not to use it which was inconvenient. The cottage was nice but poor host communication was less than ideal."
