Wonderfully relaxing with beautiful views. Highly recommended.
The Lookout provides an open vista across the rainforest over to the bay of Charlottville. Rainforest trails lead from the property while Charlottville with its ATM, mini-mart and fish market, is a short 5 min. drive down the hill. A place of enormous tranquility with the songs of the local bird population, including the Mot Mot and the Oropondola accompanying the day. Mark and Gayle are wonderfully attentive hosts who gave us invaluable advice about where to eat (Suck Hole and Jemma's) and where to buy fresh bread (Yah Dees) through to the best reefs to see the beautiful French Angel Fish and Parrot Fish. This was a surprise holiday for my husband and an opportunity for all four of us, including our 12 and 11 year old sons, to relax. It did not disappoint. If you like to get away from the crowds, this is the place for you. Mark helpfully organised a guide and boat trip across to Little Tobago and also organised car hire so that we were picked up from the airport. We had nothing to worry about. The only thing that spoilt the quiet during our stay was the all-night beach party on Friday night - not sure whether there is anyone on the beach at 4am and the loud music must disturb all the residents - so it's not clear it's a feature that will last. We thoroughly recommend Tobago for its unspoilt beaches and the north of the island for its peace and tranquillity. The Lookout at Charlottville is a beautiful property and we had both levels so could spread out and enjoy.
