Heavenly place. Beautiful flowers in bloom in May, with deer, birds, cattle and even a fox in the surroundings. Delicious meal at the restaurant, with light entertainment and views. Free breakfast across the street was also good. Really great room with a view and outdoor sitting area, plus huge indoor outdoor pool and hot tub, lit up at night.

Nice Overnight Getaway

The hotel staff was very welcoming. Both check in and check out were quick and easy. The Tides restaurant across the street was good; with great views of Bodega Bay. The room was comfortable and quiet. The great view from the room was a bonus!

Beautiful property, great view but would have been nice to be able to check in before 4p. Person right before us got to check in at 3. We had to wait another hour. Also would be good to have a grab bar in the shower as we were traveling with my 95 year old Mom.

First time experience GREAT!

Our first time staying at The Inn at the Tides. Stayed in and loved Bodega Bay for years, but never at Tides. Wonderful two days in a secluded room in building 12 that included a view of the bay and ocean beyond. Housekeeping was great. Enjoyed complimentary breakfast at the Tides Restaurant.
View from our balcony.

Our stay at the Inn at the Tides was exactly what we needed. The property is absolutely beautiful, with peaceful views of the bay that made us feel like we were truly getting away from it all. We spent a good amount of time soaking in the hot tub and relaxing by the pool it was the perfect way to unwind after exploring the coast. One of our favorite parts was breakfast at the resort restaurant. The food was delicious, and sitting there with a warm cup of coffee while looking out over the water made for the perfect start to our mornings. It was such a memorable and relaxing stay we’re already talking about coming back!
