If you are looking for a beach, then there are two spectacular choices, one to the left and one to the right, within a short stroll. If you want more, or want to explore what else the island offers you really need a car or to use taxis, as public transport can be a bit hit or miss. The property was as advertised except the laundry machines are no longer available for use, although a laundry service was offered. The apartment was ideal for us as a couple, but be aware that the second bedroom is accessed through the master bedroom so the property may not be suitable for two couples. Local shops are within walking distance and offer the basic supplies. You need to travel further if a greater range is sought. There are numerous fruit stalls along the main road that offer fresh fruit and vegetables. For restaurants you need to travel further. We used the apartment as a base for exploring the island and would find places to eat on our travels. The rain forest, Little Tobago, the Adventure Park and the boardwalk at Petit Trou were for us some of the highlights. Driving is not for the faint-hearted, just take your time. Theodora and the team keep the apartments clean and the garden tidy.
