Some of the most popular group and team-building activities at The Tides Inn stem from its prime waterfront location in Virginia’s Northern Neck. Set in the charming town of Irvington, in the historic Chesapeake Bay region, the Tides Inn sits on its own private peninsula and sets a perfect stage for everything from oyster roasts to sailing matches, GPS challenges, and tournaments at the Golden Eagle Golf Club.

Thirteen meeting room configurations accommodate parties of 6 to 200. The guaranteed comfort of ergonomic leather conference chairs and the delight of unobstructed water views highlight every meeting space. The Lee Suite lends its living room to hospitality events, while outdoor favorites like the beach and boardwalk entertain parties of up to 250 and the manicured lawn hosts up to 400.

Every guest room and suite features stunning views of the water, along with British colonial styling in keeping with Virginia’s Northern Neck region—birthplace of George Washington, James Madison, and James Monroe. Restaurant dining boasts fresh, local specialties, an award-winning wine list, and three distinct dining venues.

The Tides Inn boasts all the sophisticated comforts commensurate with membership in The Leading Hotels of the World. But loyal groups often cite the warm family atmosphere—a hallmark of over 60 years of Southern hospitality—as the No. 1 reason they return year after year.
