We spent 19 nights on Tobago touring the island. We started with 3 nights here and enjoyed so much we finished our stay with another 3 nights. Rooms vary a lot in size; we started in King Fisher and ended in Grouper; we would have stayed in Malin if available. Ancle and his colleagues were straightforward and friendly. We hired... More

Ancle is a great host. He answered all my questions pre arriving, very helpful for a newbie to Tobago. He organized us a taxi from the airport and was there on our arrival at 10pm that evening to greet us. You couldn't get much closer to the beach which is exactly what we were after. We stayed in the Tuna... More

Although our plane was 2 hours late, Ancle George was waiting for us at the airport as promised and took us to Castara. We got nice and tidy rook with perfect "temperature", small kitchen and view on the beach. The staff of Naturalist beach resort was always smilling and answering our "nosy questions". We rented a car from the resort... More

As usual, our stay at the Naturalist was a total delight. Ancle George is continuously making implovements. We noted the larger (and newer) fridge in King Fish, as well as the addition of a full 4 burner stove with oven (replacing the 2 burner hotplate!), the addition of free continental breakfast that included cereal and fresh fruit, high-speed internet (free...

I spent just 2 nights and I can't wait for a longer retreat in this lovely spot where... More

We have come to the Naturalist in Castara every year since 2006. This was our 6th visit, and each one has been a joy and pleasure thanks to the care expended bv the owner, Ancle George, to continuously upgrade his little hotel without spoiling its simplicity. We stayed this year in the Grouper apartment, which is situated in the space... More

Castara is not a place that you should go if you’re looking for glitzy shops and exciting nightlife. But if you’re looking for a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere where life takes a step back in time and the simple things are what matter, then this is definitely the place for you. This was one of the best vacations we have... More

I have taken groups of students to the Naturalist and Ancle and his staff have never let us down. The rooms are always immaculate with all the facilities working properly. Any problems are promptly dealt with a smile. The accommodation varies in style, but this is reflected in the price, so even budget travellers can enjoy a delightful stay in... More
