Stay overall very good. Not the first time we've stayed at the tides and each stay we had good experience. Although this stay, Don't know why music by pool area was blaring at 7am Saturday morning which was very aggravating. Called the front desk and they turned the music off.

Folly beach is gorgeous. The hotel lobby is great. If you have a pet, it seems like a great hotel. The rooms are not well kept. The bathrooms are not well maintained, and we found a bedbug in our room which, impressively, did not seem to alarm the staff.

First and last time staying at Tides! Very noisy! Many inconveniences such as only 1 working elevator that was programmed to stop on every floor for several hours a day causing long delays getting to and from your room. No prior notice of parking lot getting resurfaced which cause parking issues, making getting around the property with your pet difficult, and the tar odor was horrible. The room looked clean but had been heavily deodorized which was concerning and affected our sinuses. The 2 stars are for location and friendliness of staff only!

I had such an epic stay that I decided to extend it! A big thank you to David and Jay for their help when I checked in—they were both so welcoming and efficient. And a special shoutout to Ellie this morning for assisting me with extending my stay. Her vibe was amazing, she was incredibly informative, and her epic smile truly brightened my day. I can’t wait for my next staycation here!

Its hard to get to Charleston, no public transport . Take note of this if you are a foreigner, but the local town is very walkable and quaint.There was no breakfast buffet which the booking said they have breakfast. The hotel facilities are good, staff was friendly.

Tides Folly was a lovely stay. The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. The location can't be beat! Right on Folly Beach with fabulous views of the Atlantic. Great food, drink and shopping is a short stroll up the main street in front of the hotel.
