Why Tobago?

If you’re looking to branch out your long-haul experiences, try a trip to Tobago.

It’s one of the Caribbean’s most quintessentially beautiful islands, rife with sweeping ocean vistas, lush jungle foliage, and charismatic locals.

Thankfully, though, we’ve done all the hard work for you and come up with a top recommendation: Tropikist Beach Hotel. Here are 9 reasons why we think it’s the ideal candidate for Tobago first-timers.

9 reasons to stay at Tropikist

  1. Short transfer
  2. Boutique resort
  3. Stunning views
  4. Get the best start to the day
  5. Best beaches
  6. Choice of pools including a secret Jacuzzi
  7. Learn to dive
  8. Perfect location
  9. The price

1. Short transfer

If there’s a small drawback to travelling to the Caribbean (or anywhere really) it’s getting off the plane after a long flight, then having an equally protracted transfer to finally reach your resort. 

However, there are no such problems at Tropikist. Here you’re only around 5 minutes from the airport. But, you don’t have to worry about noise either. Because the airport is so small and you’re on the Caribbean coast, noise disruption is barely noticeable. 


2. Boutique Resort 

After that short transfer, you’ll be welcomed by the boutique resort’s 48 rooms. That limited accommodation ensures there’s never a crunch around the pools and you’ll always have access to the two delicious restaurants. 

Moreover, following a recent renovation, each room features modern contemporary design touches as well as super-comfy fittings.

Have the choice of kicking back in a Standard, Superior, or Deluxe Room dependent on how decadent you want your escape to be. On the other hand, you could let our offer make the choice for you – more on that in a moment.

3. Stunning views 

Some hotels flaunt promises of great views they can only deliver from a handful of rooms, but not Tropikist Beach Hotel & Resort. 

Here you’ll have a stunning ocean view from nearly every room, filling your horizon with the peaceful blue-on-blue of the Caribbean Sea. 

In addition, every room comes with a patio or balcony, so you can experience the famed vistas of Tobago every day. Read a book, enjoy a drink, or just bliss-out in the sea air.

4. Best start to the day

On any board basis, the complimentary breakfast served at Bayside Restaurant offers an impressive array of local delicacies.

These dishes change daily, so you can kick off every day of your break in the most delicious fashion. The other dining odysseys at the Sunset Grill & Bar are also first-rate. Where fresh lunches and dinners are rustled up straight off the grill.

Tobago has a deep, boundless passion for all things culinary, and the resort places this at the heart of every meal.

5. Best beaches

Sea and sand are vital to the success of any Caribbean escape, and the best beaches in Tobago are the stuff of legend. But the great thing here is you’ll be just minutes from some of the island’s top sandy spots. 

Store Bay Beach is an easy 10-minute walk from the hotel. Boasting a reputation for being a great local hangout with a laid-back atmosphere.

You can even get better acquainted with the ocean thanks to the non-motorised water sports, deep sea diving, and snorkelling available from Tropikist. It’s a lovely way to start your love affair with Tobago.

6. Choice of pools

The two large pools at Tropikist are the main event when it comes to grabbing some relaxation time.

One offers a chilled-out atmosphere and comes complete with a waterfall, a dedicated children’s area, and a vibrant pool bar. Whereas, the other pool is where you’ll find plenty of vibrant games and even scuba training. 

However, those two main pools don’t tell the whole aquatic relaxation story here. Walking around the five acres of manicured gardens you’ll come across a secluded Jacuzzi which boasts world-class views of the shimmering Caribbean Sea. Imagine settling down with a good book here.

7. Learn to dive

While we’re talking about those amazing pools, you could also utilise them to learn a new skill.

Check out the resort’s five-star PADI-certified dive centre which offers lessons in the second pool. You can learn the basics here before heading under the waves in the great wide blue of the Caribbean Sea. 


8. Perfect location 

There are some incredible things to do in Tobago. And staying at Tropikist Beach Hotel & Resort places you perfectly to get out and try them. 

Crown Point is the main spot on the island. With a clutch of bars, restaurants, and beautiful beaches pulling you in. This awesome hub is right on your doorstep, so it’s definitely worth getting out and exploring of an evening or during the day. 

You might also like to check out Pigeon Point. Just 10 minutes from Crown Point, this stunning beach is right up there with any stretch of sand you’re likely to see anywhere.
