Cozy accommodation in the heart of a quaint, out-of-the-way Seaside village.
Pros:

Lovely wine and cheese Happy Hour every day and "Breakfast in Bed," complimentary Continental breakfast is delivered to your door (selections can be made on a form and placed on the door). Though not all rooms have a panoramic view, there is a gorgeous communal desk right on the bay with a magnificent view of San Francisco and the Bay. Ferry rides to the City and Angel Island are right next door.

Excellent service
Pros:

Absolutely amazing experience. The hotel was beautiful and the service was even better. Josh at the front desk went above and beyond. His hospitality made us feel so comfortable providing dinner recommendations. He even grabbed my boyfriend a glass of milk with the complimentary cookies. We forgot our toothbrushes at home. And Josh was at our room within 1 minute with 2 toothbrushes and toothpaste. Immaculate service. Will be back! Thanks Josh.

Kind and comfortable
Pros:

The staff is so kind and helpful! Joshua went above and beyond to help us all. There are 15 of us! Waters Edge is a great place to stay. The town of Tiburon is very walkable and the ships and restaurants are a wonderful mix.
Our rooms all had great views and the back upstairs deck is Devine!
Breakfast brought in to your s room is an extra special treat. GO!

Unbelievable gem in a very busy world!!
Pros:

We love Waters Edge, and try to come twice a year. The main reason is to see Tom. He is such a great person and I hope the company realizes what he brings to the hotel.

Cons:

We had a poor room #207, it did not have a view, which we had when we visited in the summer. No worries, we still had a great time. We hung in the lobby with Tom and played scrabble.

Pros:

Location.

Cons:

An outdoor jacuzzi would have been awesome by the outdoor fireplace! The large bathroom space could use some art to cheer up the gray walls.

A must weekend getaway
Pros:

Loved this quaint little town! Loved Marie who made us feel so welcome. We loved all the amenities. Wine and cheese at 5:00, Scrabble by the fireplace. A warm blanket on the patio with a fire pit and the ocean view. Marie was there for all our needs! She is superwoman super host! Breakfast in bed, chocolates at every turn. The town is just adorable!

Perfect Home Away from Home, on the Bay
Pros:

Beautiful hotel, right on the water and in town, very close to restaurants, shops, and the ferry to SF. Room was comfortable, cozy bed, and fine continental breakfast in your room or take it to the deck, next to the fire pit, overlooking the bay. Perfect!!

A delightful stay on the better side of the bridge.
Pros:

We took a girls trip and stayed here and it was incredibly ideal! Marie Lin was especially delightful and showed unmatched hospitality. She was a highlight of our trip! The hotel itself has a beautiful back deck we enjoyed, lovely finishes and an at home feel. It’s not often you have a hotel that provides such a natural environment to meet others and cultivate wonderful conversation. And the wine hour is delightful! I would highly recommend staying here.

Wonderful locations and staff, but a lot to be desired for the in-room breakfast
Pros:

Location, patio with an evening fire. Fire place in room.

Cons:

The breakfast was less than excellent. The oatmeal was cold and they forgot the pastry and toast. We called and it was delivered but it was just bread and not toasted

Pros:

Check-in was very easy and gentleman was very friendly and gave us suggestions for dinner around the corner that evening after a long flight from the East Coast…….there was a happy hour in lobby complimentary (wine/Cheese) LOVED! The outdoor deck was awesome after dinner…..went down and grabbed a nice glass of wine and enjoyed the beautiful view!!! To top it off they delivered a lovely continental breakfast right to our room at 7am before we left to start our adventure to Napa next morning……Highly recommended👍

Wonderful water-front location with a great view.
Pros:

Breakfast options with in-room delivery were fine. The deck overlooking the water has a fantastic view and comfortable seating is provided.

Cons:

There was a room next door, with a window just a few feet from mine. You could hear the TV, which was turned up loud. The check-in desk needs re-varnishing, giving the impression that the property is not being meticulously maintained.

Wonderful place in Tiburon
Pros:

Waters Edge is superb hotel in beautiful Tiburon. From the hotel there is a stunning view across the bay to San Francisco. A friendly atmosphere and a great service make the guest feel well all the time. It cannot be better. Whenever we will return to the Bay Area Waters Edge hotel will be our first option.
