Christmas in Tobago
When we arrived the view that greeted us was breath taking. The surrounding grounds was clean and spacious it's like you connecting with nature. Inside is very spacious with high ceiling, cleaned and well kept. Rooms quite accommodating. Enough seating for the the entire group but the furniture could be upgraded a bit. The television needs to be upgraded that size is not suitable for that place. The internet worked great, hot water through out the house. The kitchen utensil fully stocked and available the stove down stairs could be upgraded though. Air Conditioning units works but could be upgraded a bit could see they have some age on them. The pool was great The kids enjoyed it. The agent that we spoke with Kudos to her we had minor problems that we encounter however she found solutions in a timely manor. The grounds keeper quite polite, respectful and informative even being called out on the holidays. On overall we had a great time and would visit again. It's close to all amenities and beaches. Safe and secure for your family. Just imagine have breakfast on that balcony or even late nights just enjoying that view pure serenity.

I think the policy regarding disposal of the garbage should be reviewed since non locals won't know where to dispose it.
As guests I don't think it's our responsibility to take the garbage out. We are not sure where to dispose it.
One of the beds was a slab of concrete with a mattress....not good for posture.
The lighting in the kitchen needs upgraded...too dark.

Great Vacation spot!
The surroundings are gorgeous and the interior feels like home. The location is secluded and very private which is what we were looking for. The villa manager was very friendly and willing to assist and receive feedback on everything. I must say I enjoyed my stay and would recommend this villa without hesitation.

Great stay !
My family and I had a wonderful time at the villa. Beautiful view both day and night. Family of 12 , both children and adult slept comfortably. Colin , the house manager was easily accessible at all times .
However, like others stated a vehicle is a must have.
Minor repairs can also be done .
Great stay overall. Would definitely book again

Opinion on Plantation View
The location was exquisite with a beach view in the distant along with low lying areas. The exterior of the house was well kept with a botanical as well as fruits landscape. However at the initial the bathrooms were not tidy until a complaint was made. The kitchen utensils were badly kept
and the fixtures were deplorable.

Wonderful secluded holiday getaway
We arrived on April 15th, hired our car at the airport and made our way to the villa where we were met by the affable Colin who showed us around and gave us some tips on places to visit during our stay. First impressions were ' Wow, what a view!'~ the property is high up and this means that there is a great vista of the sea and the towns below. The gardens are filled with all kinds of amazing flowers and plants with mangoes, grapefruit and mandarins among others and we saw lizards, hummingbirds, mot mots as well as having visits from the local chickens.
We visited a few of the beaches, the best being Pigeon Point which is well worth the few dollars it costs to get in and then to hire sunbeds.
We went on a tour of the island and enjoyed swimming at the Argyll waterfalls and a stop off at Castara where we watched the locals pulling in their fishing nets from our seats at the bar on stilts. Another trip out saw us going to Fort King George at Scarborough, which was full of local history, and a short visit to Bacolet beach where the Swiss family Robinson was filmed in 1975. We enjoyed breakfasting at House of Pancakes, at the turn off to Pigeon Point, and also a drink and fries at Legger's bar near Mount Irvine bay, our local beach. We ate at the villa most nights, making full use of the barbecue, and got some really excellent meat from the meat shop at Golden Grove. A special mention for a place to visit is Sunday School at Buccoo, just down the road, where you can enjoy a steel band and a bit of a flutter on a version of roulette.
The villa is homely, the pool table a source of evening entertainment and the pool affording a welcome dip during the heat of the day.
Everyone we met was really friendly and welcoming; All the neighbours say hello and we felt really welcomed by everybody we met.
Our two week stay was over before we knew it. Check-in at the airport was a very easy going experience as the airport is so small, but get your souvenirs before you leave as you can only really buy cigarettes and alcohol in duty free.
Would recommend as a great place to stay as it is so easy to get to everything but a car is a necessity as you are 500ft above sea level and up a winding road, which is why you have such wonderful views. This island is well worth a second visit as there is so much to see and do.

Another fantastic stay
So glad we booked this villa again.
Since our last visit Mr Barry has made some updates and they certainly are impressive.
New lounge furniture and reshuffle of other sofas has made it more homely..
New cooker, not that we cooked inside much, and new soft furnishings to bedrooms.
You just can't get tired of the view...day or night...
We even got to know the local fishermen.

Christmas at Plantation View
The house was beautiful..and has been updated a bit from the pictures.. the view was spectacular and we enjoyed the pool! My family had a great time and we will definitely book again...a few issues arised but most were solvable. The rooms were comfortable except for the air conditioning downstairs not working properly.. the upstairs fridge gave out on us but it was difficult to solve this during the holiday. The downstairs one worked fine. Also some more mats needed and gas tank downstairs as well.
Barry was a pleasure to deal with and answered every question and concern.. I would recommend staying as I feel that these issues would be dealt with.

Prospect is a small village, a short distance from Mount Irvine Golf Course and Beach Facilities. Sunday school (this has little to do with religion) is the place to go, as you get to hear the local music and join in the infamous street party.Pigion Point is where the famous Bacardi advert was filmed and a small fee is required before entering but this resort is a must see and hundreds of people flock here every week. Here is also good for wind surfing and board sailing. This villa is an ideal place to stay in April as the annual Jazz Festival is only a short drive away . At the bottom of the hill is MountErvin Resort and Golf course .
