“A great place to stay in Castara”
+We stayed for 3 nights at the Castara inn and we loved it. The room is well thought out with facilities for cooking if needed, though we just made our own breakfast, and ate locally in the different restaurants in Castara and surrounding areas. We liked the little touches in the room like the usb chargers, big beach towels, books to borrow and the lovely big bathroom etc. The sunset view is just beautiful and we loved watching all the birds and wildlife. Rhonda was in touch with information before we arrived which was really helpful and was easy to get hold of on WhatsApp if needed.
−There was nothing we didn’t like, but just to say ,as others have mentioned, just be careful on the trail down to the little cove, it is very steep and can be slippery if it’s rained. It is worth doing though!

“Lovely, spacious studio with amazing views of the sea from the garden. Fantastic hosts.”
+Lovely, spacious studio apartment with amazing views of the sea from both the apartment terrace and the large communal garden. Rhonda and Marlon were fantastic hosts. We enjoyed watching the birds and wildlife and the fact there was access to a private beach. Short walk into town with views of Castara Bay.

+Short walk up hill from Castara village and beach. Great sunset views. Hidden cove was a plus, down side of cliff via steep stairs.
−Confusing check-in arrangement - could have been clearer and specified upfront as to the process. Pile of dirty used towels on bathroom floor from previous occupants, which were later removed.

“A peaceful place for Tobago cooldown.”
+Great place. Marlon and Rhonda are very friendly and accommodating. They are quick to respond to any requests but leave you to enjoy your stay. The property sits on a cliff with a breathtaking view of a secluded cove. The jungle is full of birds (ok, the Chachalacas are quite noisy in the morning but fun to watch as they glide down among the treetops). Several large mango trees provide ample shade and there are chairs with little ledges to place your morning coffee. The studio, while modest, was well equipped with a kitchen with kettle, hot plate, fridge and cooking and serving utensils. The bathroom was nicely updated and included small bottles of shampoo and body lotion. The shower had a large supply of body wash and lots of towels and wash cloths. Minutes from Castara Beach and Englishman's Bay. I'd definitely stay there again.

“Disgraceful: my paid booking was canceled and the room resold.”
+Honestly? Nothing. The only “positive” is that I quickly learned you can’t rely on a paid reservation here.
−This hotel is a masterclass in how to drive customers away. I booked through Booking.com and paid in advance. The hotel contacted me via WhatsApp. During that conversation, I said I was still unsure about my arrival (yellow travel advisory / travel plans). That was not “go ahead and cancel,” it was uncertainty , something any professional property handles with clear terms. What did they do? Without any proper warning, they canceled my reservation and simply resold my room. And yes: two days later I confirmed that I was coming , and suddenly it was “no longer possible.” Of course not, because they had already given my paid room to someone else. This isn’t “miscommunication.” It’s pure unprofessionalism and completely unreliable. If you communicate via WhatsApp, you set a clear deadline (“please confirm by…”) or you pick up the phone. You don’t quietly cancel and resell the room as if the guest doesn’t exist. I am now waiting for my full refund. If this takes even a moment longer than necessary, I will share this experience publicly everywhere , including exactly how long the refund took. Conclusion: avoid this hotel. They don’t respect their own bookings, communication is poor, and
