Top Sanford Hotel Reviews

Ogunquit Tides Resort

Ogunquit Tides Resort

8/10 Good
"Beautiful family hotel by the beach, my was spacious and clean, I was really happy with the Kitchenette it made my stay more convenient and comfortable, the staff were helpful and it was a peaceful and quiet environment overall. Unfortunately the AC in my room was acting up, and the thermostat was probably bad because it kept working on its own. The Most thing that I LOVED about this hotel is that they have a $500 PENALTY for making noise between 10:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m., this is one of the best rules that should be implemented in all hotels, especially if you are in town for work or a light sleeper as a person. I would come back here without hesitation just for that rule."
