Very clean room, beach chairs and umbrellas set up on beach is a plus. The beds are very low to the ground and walls are thin so can be noisy at times. Short walk to the center for restaurants and shops.

My family and I stayed at the Tides for the third year in a row in April. It is a small fairly quiet very well maintainedproperty. The pool is lovely and it is located on the beach. Parking is right in front of the property, it could not be easier.All of the staff were extremely helpful and friendly. It is situated less than a mile from Fort Lauderdale by the sea so an easy walk to restaurants, shops bars, etc.. It is where we stay in Fort Lauderdale before venturing down to the keys. We plan to go next year as well.

The Tides Inn was right on the beach, so a great location. Free chairs and umbrellas and staff attendant that brought the chairs was amazing. No ice machine - other than a tiny ice maker in the water dispenser in the tiny lobby. Room was clean and efficient - walls very thin so you can hear people next door. Location is great - I'd go back.
