The resort boasts stunning views over St George's Bay and features spacious, comfortable rooms. However, the dining experience left much to be desired, with limited quality offerings and some service issues. Overall, it’s a great spot for relaxation, but be prepared for a few dining disappointments.

Our stay at Tidal Waters was a mixed bag. On one hand, the beds were comfortable and the room spacious. On the other hand, there were maintenance issues that could really use attention, such as dust buildup and a noisy bathroom fan. The dining experience was disappointing as well, with rushed service and tasteless food. While the parking was plentiful, it was quite the trek from our room, making it less convenient.

My stay at Tidal Waters was a mixed experience. The gardens could use some attention, and the inside had a creaky charm, but the views from the balcony overlooking the marshland were lovely. The dining experience fell short, especially with some lapses in service. Overall, while it had its highlights, it didn’t quite meet my expectations for a four-star experience.

Rooms

The room was nice but felt a bit dated in décor. The views from the balcony were a nice touch, although the swampy pond in front was an eyesore.

I had a lovely stay at Tidal Waters Resort, where the beautiful views over St Georges Bay really enhanced the experience. The room was spacious and clean, providing a comfortable retreat. However, my weekend was marred by poor service, particularly at breakfast and dinner, which was disappointing. While the dining options were great, I found breakfast to be inconsistent in both quality and value. Overall, it’s a beautiful place with potential, but the service needs significant improvement.

My stay at Tidal Waters Resort had its ups and downs. The room, especially from the balcony overlooking the water, was quite pleasant, but I felt some areas, like the bathroom, could use a refresh. The resort was clean and staff were very accommodating. The location by the water brought some lovely views, making it a nice place to unwind. However, the dining options didn't quite meet my expectations, and I found that it could be better in certain aspects.
