Ebb Tide - A Boutique Waterfront Resort By the Beach Rentals

Hotel

Room is very comfortable and the owners are very accommodating. The location is perfect where it is tucked away and quiet at night while within walking distance to anything in the main strip.

Paid for a week, and this is what I arrived to. NO call, no warning, no refund, no answer on the phone. I read reviews about bed bugs, but I assumed this was a disgruntled patron. This tells me I was warned and didn't pay attention. At least they could have told me! My family and I are stuck 1, 000 miles from home, no car, no place to stay. To say these people ruined my vacation is an understatement.

Biggest problem was bedbugs, but a murder across the street didn't help our experience. Myself and my girlfriend found this place online, and thinking it was a good deal, we paid ahead arrived on time the day of our stay. We were told that our room wouldn't be ready until 8:00 pm, which is outrageous! We wasted 4 hours waiting for a room at a place that was 1/2 empty, but decided to not let it set the tone for our stay. What a mistake. Upon entry to our "deluxe' room, I was disappointed at the sparse furnishing and dead cockroaches on the floor. How this room was cleaned an hour earlier and dead bugs on the floor is beyond my ability to comprehend. Turns out, a dead cockroach was the least of our worries. More on that later… We went to explore Clearwater Beach, which is beautiful, but this lodging is located in what's known as "the ghetto", where drug users and drunk domestic fights at 3am are standard Friday night happenings. Upon talking to one of the nardowell neighbors, it turns out someone was stabbed to death over a drug deal less that 1/2 block away from the Ebb Tide. Something about that makes me feel this is not exactly "family friendly". Our second night at the Ebb Tide, I was awoken to what I thought was a mosquito loose in the room as my arm was itching like crazy. I flipped on the light on my phone as there was no working overhead light and to my horror, my arm was covered in bed-bugs! I was done at this point.

Excellent motel! Stayed in a two bedroom with my wife, our two kids and my parents and we were very comfortable with our accomodations. Each room has its own bathroom with shower and there is also a full kitchen. We got to know some of the other guests during our stay and everyone was very friendly. We enjoyed swimming in the pool and fishing off the dock and we caught a bunch of fish. We walked just about everywhere during our stay, it is nice that everything is so close by. The beach is across the street and there are plenty of restaurants and shops within walking distance. We would definitely stay here again.

This is not a Hotel or Motel it is more like mini homes at a resort on the North end of Clearwater Beach. Really quite. We have been there several times. We really came upon the Ebb Tide by accident and fell in love with the place. We fly into Tampa and rent a car but I don't know why cause we walk everywhere we go. Can't wait to go back next year and relax and just have fun with my wife.

Great place, fantastic views, clean and friendly. Love it here!
