The Tides Inn
Irvington, Virginia, United States · Virtuoso

The Tides Inn is a waterfront resort situated on a tributary of America’s most important estuary, the Chesapeake Bay. Just under three hours from Washington, DC and one hour from Richmond, the Tides offers warm hospitality in a beautiful, natural setting. Seventy guest rooms and suites welcome the outdoors in with views of the water, shorelines and gardens. A twenty-seven–slip overnight marina also welcomes sail-in guests.
Blue herons and ospreys welcome you to The Tides Inn. Situated on a tributary of Chesapeake Bay—the largest estuary in the U.S.—this inviting retreat features a 27-slip marina, while a recent shoreline restoration created an expanded beach, boardwalk, and oyster reef. Its 70 rooms and suites exude an understated elegance; most open to water views. Salt & Meadow restaurant serves Chesapeake seafood with locally farmed produce; a casual oyster bar sits creekside. Hike nature trails, practice yoga, play golf and croquet, or relax in the spa. Then again, you may never leave your Adirondack chair.
