Trinidad and Tobago are renowned for being prime destinations for ecotourist pursuits such as scuba diving and, in particular, bird watching. Small posh beach resorts, eco-friendly inns, and business traveler hotels can all be found in locations ranging from Crown Point to Port of Spain.
Tobago is the quieter and less populated of the two islands and is home to exclusive and expensive hotels and resorts. Some of these luxury accommodations are within view of the island's stunning tropical rainforests.
But stylish and sophisticated lodgings don't have to be gigantic megaresorts. Travelers who want all the extras and lavish amenities without the crowds will be pleased to learn that there are still Caribbean destinations where the population is low, but the pampering is abundant. Some of these up-market accommodations include spa services, gourmet restaurants and all the deluxe amenities expected on a exclusive, tropical getaway. Vacationers should expect to pay as much as $300(USD) or more per night to stay in one of Tobago's high-end resorts.
You can also find luxury lodging on Trinidad, but travelers on a budget will find mostly moderately priced accommodations here. Just because you're paying less for your hotel doesn't mean you must forgo the little extras. Many mid-priced priced hotels and inns on both Trinidad and Tobago offer their guests pools, up-to-date décor, and fine food. These smaller hotels and resorts may not be as luxurious as the island's expensive rooms, but travelers will find that these accommodations can meet their budget as well as their lodging expectations.
Travelers who want to pay as little as possible for their room can find hotels that cost as low as $20(USD) to $50(USD) per night. But vacationers should be aware that some budget rooms may not provide all the amenities you'd expect, and may not have air conditioning. Guests who want to pay just a bit more for their hotel but don't want to break their vacation budget can find rooms on both islands ranging from $50(USD) to $300(USD).
Whatever style or size of hotel you choose, the bill will include a 15 percent government tax as well as a 10 percent service charge. Because of the limited amount of accommodations on Trinidad and Tobago, travelers visiting the islands during the week of carnival should secure their hotel or resort reservations months in advance to ensure availability.
Trinidad and Tobago are off the beaten path, which means fewer hotels and resorts are located here. But that doesn't mean you can't find a wide range of lodging options. Depending on your preference—quaint, comfortable inns or lavish five-star accommodations—all are available on these unique islands.
