I liked this place so much that I don't want to give it a good review, so there will be a vacancy the next time I want to go to Florida.

Truly a special place.

Pros:

Loved the hotel. It was clean and close to everything but the AC in my room didn’t work properly the entire time I was there. We had to sleep with the fan on and it was very uncomfortable. Other guests were complaining about the same thing. We reported it but they couldn’t do anything about it. The staff was very helpful and I would go back if they correct that issue.

Pros:

Our stay at The Tides Inn in Fort Lauderdale was unfortunately, a very disappointing experience. One of the biggest issues was the lack of parking. The hotel had rented out its own parking spaces, leaving guests like us scrambling to find somewhere else to park. We were told to “just park” at a nearby hotel across the street, even though it wasn’t allowed—which we chose not to do. Instead, we had to pay to park in a public parking lot, which was inconvenient and added unexpected costs.
The room itself was also a letdown. It was very small, and the beds were extremely low to the ground and uncomfortable. It felt more like a budget motel than a relaxing beach getaway.
Overall, this was not the experience we hoped for. Between the parking situation and the uncomfortable accommodations, we will not be returning and cannot recommend this hotel to others.

Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at the Tides Inn. The rooms are renovated and you’re steps from the sand/beach. The pool and deck area were great, we traveled with young children and they were very happy to play in the pool.

Good communication with the front office, very friendly, accommodating and helpful. Proximity to restaurants was ideal.
