Friendly staff, pleasant open air lobby/bar/dining area, but that's about the only positives. Dinner was good, but no one up for breakfast at 7:30 the next morning when we left. We stayed one night in a room on the second floor - no lock on the sliding glass door, stains on the upholstery, mismatched and threadbare linens - was that... More

We booked the Tamarind Club as a one night stay coming of a week sailing in BVI. The place was among the less costly places on the island ($169 night) and close enough to the airport. Now let me say this first, if you are looking for a American standard like Hilton, Sheraton or equivalent do not stay here. If... More

We stayed at the Tamarind Club before and after our bareboat charter. The place fit our needs perfectly. It is a bit off the beaten path - even for Tortola - and the driveway/parking area does not make a good first impression. The welcoming drinks and friendliness of the bartenders made up for whatever misgivings we may have had upon... More

I love the Tamarind Club. I've stayed here several times and each time was wonderful. The place is beautiful, but not in an overly manicured fake Disney world kind of way. Their pool is surrounded by comfy chairs, there is a quaint bridge that arches over the pool, and there are even bar stools in the pool where you can... More

You never get a second chance to make a first impression so finding the Tamarind Club in the dark was almost impossible as the unlit sign is so small and the place so hidden that you're not really sure if this is the place. Then the driveway so bad you almost need a wheel drive makes you wonder what you've... More

My wife and I stayed here at the close of our charter to get our land legs back. Great fun, met some cool people and the bartender recommended a great reastaurant in the east end. Will definitely stay here again.

We needed somewhere to stay for one night, as we were travelling on to Virgin Gorda the next day. This hotel is just a short drive from the airport, and after a particular gruelling journey with a missed connection, long delays and a 'couldn't car less' attitude by the local airline staff, all we wanted was a drink and bed....

This resort is on the North side of the island in an area called Josiah’s Bay. It is about a mile walk from the bay, which is very pretty. The benefits end there. Upon arrival at the resort, after reservations were made via email months before arrival and telephone conversations to confirm only two weeks prior to arrival, we were... More

Horrible place! I am beyond offended by the attitude and rottenness of this place that pretends to offer a service. It is the kind of place where the taxi driver knows it's reputation and says here is my number in case you change your plans (overnight!). Never had seen a cockroach that large before, never had felt that I should... More
