Holiday Homes in James Island

"Hotel suite decor was dingy. Absolutely no privacy as I opened 104 suite door into main concourse for the hotel. Open door or downstairs window curtain to find guests at hotel restaurant or patio staring right back at you. Outdated carpets and furniture. Cramped into two room split level suite with almost no direct sunlight through two small windows. Bed spread and linens, comforter were rather cheap quality. For me to use 2nd sofa bed, I had to move faux marble coffee table. Just two pillows (without cases) and a sheet for it. Despite high end cost of stay, ($2900 for 3 nights!) none of the three wine bottles placed in room were complimentary $25 ea. Lots of emphasis on booze in decor and amenities and the staff’s approach to defusing tension and stress w guests check-in is to randomly offer you a rum punch when you check in. On positive note, valet service was excellent. Overall a total bust except for the Charleston southern “whiskey gentry” that seem to love the place. "

"Beautiful hotel with great staff! The pools were great (close at 9 pm. I wish they stayed open later). The hotel bar was closed for different private events each of the 3 nights we stayed which was disappointing. Overall, it was a great hotel, great location, friendly staff, and great amenities. "

"Furniture in our room seemed to be from the 60’s. The A/C was ancient and we couldn’t dial in a comfortable temperature. The evening reception snacks were not quite as good as what I could get on an airplane. On the good side, the staff was very helpful and friendly and the breakfast was very good. "

"Bathroom was very small and there was no water pressure"

"Hotel and staff were wonderful. The mattress and pillows could've been more comfortable. Would definately stay here again"

"Room was clean. Outdoor pool not great. No breakfast. Bathroom door was almost impossible to shut. Sliding door."

"The hotel had a nice outdoor pool area and clean rooms, very convenient drive to downtown Charleston"

"Booker beware! They overbooked and when we arrived we were informed they didn’t have our reservation available. We had pre paid through Expedia had nowhere to stay and it was an absolute nightmare trying to get a refund. Shaunte at the front desk was incredibly rude. This was by far the worst experience I’ve ever had at a hotel. Even though it may be inexpensive, please please don’t book this hotel it is not worth it. Spend your money elsewhere. "

"The property needs a lot of updating. The elevators were out of order many times during our stay resulting in our family, including a child with an ankle fracture, having to walk up 8 flights of stairs multiple times. The bathrooms have no ventilation. There is no furniture on the balconies. Overall, I will not be staying at Tides again. "
