Plage The Tides Laguna

A wonderful stay. We were greeted with kindness and helpfulness. We found a welcome note and drinks in our room as soon as we entered. The location was just steps from the beach and the town center... everything perfect! Highly recommended!

I’m giving this small hotel a well-deserved 5-star review. The standout feature was the staff—they were fantastic and truly went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. While we didn’t end up using the pool or outdoor common areas, it was nice knowing those amenities were available. One of my favorite aspects was the location. It’s tucked away from the busy Main Beach and tourist areas, yet still close enough that we could walk everywhere we needed. The walk to the beach itself was especially enjoyable, with a beautiful pathway and great views along the way. I would absolutely recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again.

Only minor issue was low shower water pressure. Excellent stay!

The place is clean and tidy. Rooms are cozy.

Great location and clean rooms. Parking could be tough with a larger vehicle. Glad we brought the car. Heated pool was a bonus!

The Tides is an old-style California motor hotel located on busy PCH. In its heyday it must have been the jewel of Laguna Beach. Today, this centrally located yet tired facility is in need of various upgrades, starting with room insulation so as not to be so fully aware of what is going on next door. Its affordable rates and location keep me coming back.

Great location and service. My brother lives close by so its an obvious choice for us, especially when travelling with my family. The large room had plenty of space for a family of 4 with a nearby grocery store and a full kitchen, eating at the hotel was easy every morning. There was a heated pol which our boys loved and it was also nearby the main beach and other smaller beaches, lots of restaurants and coffee shops. Grab a pizza at Grazie Grazie and enjoy the sunset on the lawn across the street.

This was a great little spot! Staff is so friendly and easy going. Great location, steps from the beach and lots of dining options. Parking included on property which was good as well. We will be glad to stay again someday!

My family of 3 spent a week at the Tides & it couldn’t have been more delightful. It was sparkling clean, without any strong cleaning smells. The location is PERFECT—we walked to get coffee and to sit on the beach every morning. Everyone we encountered was amazing. We hope to return, we made cherished memories during our time here.

This place is adorable! Great deal, very clean. Beautiful walk to the beach. Amazing coffee shop next door that opens at 6am, good affordable mexican place, Chelas, a block away. Its not luxury but you know that from the price, great for an afforable stay!

We love this place! Great location, clean rooms, incredibly attentive staff. Close to the beach, good food (Asada Tacos & Urth Caffe) a grocery store and shops. This is our 2nd stay here and we will return!

This is by far one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. They gave us complimentary snacks, they even hand-wrote card and personalized it! Def stay here again.

We have been coming to this quant spot for years. Absolutely adore the charm and hospitality. Quiet and fantastic views of the ocean, waking distance to the beach,ships and restaurants. Highly recommend staying, or maybe not lol we don't too many knowing about this hidden gem.
