Tobago Main Ridge Forest Reserve rentals with hot tubs

Spacious, well appointed, super-comfortable, ideally situated to collect the light breeze from hills and to watch the Tobagan sun blazing its crimson path at sunset; 5 minutes from beautiful beaches with hummingbirds joining us for breakfast and fireflies dancing in the woodland each night.. our stay at Solymar was bliss! And with the wonderful Stacey, Rachel & Carlos beaming away as they looked after laundry, house, terraced garden & pool we lacked for nothing. It was a wonderful 2 weeks: thank you for sharing your magical family holiday home with us - we would love to come back!The Cameron family

Beautiful villa with outstanding views from large veranda and pool. Extremely helpful management company, owner and next door handyman. We hope to return.

Overall well kept and appointed. Recommend value for money.

The property wasn’t what we expected. Bedrooms are accessible by an exterior staircase through a separate locking front door, and this is a wholly separate area to the living accommodation. Odd. And meant carrying separate keys, even indoors. The property is well overdue for some TLC. One of the 4 available burners on the cooker was out of use due to rust. A second did not heat efficiently. I question the overall safety of the appliance. Nonetheless, we’d get by. The VRBO listing suggested bars/ restaurants nearby - there are none. The nearest decent-sized supermarket is quite some distance away. A car is essential. No fault of the owner, but 3 days after we arrived a major building work started immediately next door. This compromised the privacy we’d sought and and the noise started early and continued until nightfall both days before we moved out. We were given an immediate refund, and our booking cancelled, to be vacated the following day. We were then completely stranded as VRBO were of no help whatsoever. We were timed out of the helpline 3 separate times, each time having to go through full booking and reservation details and each stage of the problem, before being told there were computer issues, being put on hold, then having the online chat disconnected because it had been too long without agent activity. Fortunately, friends on the island helped, and we found another property to use for our stay. It took VRBO 4 days to get in touch and offer to help. We can’t recommend the accommodation, if only because to lose half the cooker on a self-catering holiday is rather unreasonable, and we won’t recommend VRBO as they proved utterly pointless and without willingness to help problem-solve. And it was a very significant problem.

We enjoyed our stay at La Jolie. The villa is spacious and light as there’s plenty of windows. We think it’s possibly ready for some modernisation as is a little old fashioned. The bar down the hill plays loud music Friday and Saturday nights till the early hours but we decided to go there for drinks so didn’t really notice it too much. We were contacted several times over our stay to check all was ok which was nice. Would have been nice to have had a small welcome pack as we arrived early evening and had to go and find a shop as there was no tea , coffee or milk just to have a cuppa with. Pool seating area is not quite big enough for the amount of people that the villa sleeps and there were only 2 sun beds. There are several good restaurants within walking distance but the villa is up a really steep hill so would be hard work for the less able. The closest beach is Stone haven which is beautiful and has several good restaurants next to the beach with lovely sea views. Tobago is beautiful, unspoilt and not too touristy - yet.

Everything was perfect and we will definitely be booking this accommodation again whenever we visit Tobago !

Great villa for whole family to stay together, close to beach
