half moon blue hotel

Here's a little property that only a small number of Europeans, and even fewer Americans, know about. If you're planning a trip to Tobago, one of the most charming hotel properties is the boutique hotel Half Moon Blue Hotel. Located just steps away from the beautiful fine sands and crystal clear blue waters of Bacolet Bay, Half Moon Blue hotel at the donkey cart house is an oasis that provides a perfect escape from the daily routine.

The donkey cart house was built more than 120 years ago in a French Colonial style. This colonial house rests in the secluded Bacolet Bay, which happens to be a favorite of movie makers and film stars.

Nestled in gardens of palms, bamboo and bougainvillea, the Half Moon Blue suites lay beneath the hill of historical Fort George. Spacious suites and one spectacular Penthouse loft overlook the horizon, the half moon shaped Bacolet Bay and the overflow swimming pool where midnight swims are a must! The decor sets your mood for serene and lazy days and romantic exotic nights. These colonial styled suites with jalousied windows and doors open onto verandas with rattan chaise-lounges, crating the prefect spot for what ever your heart desires.

Tobago is just a short hop from its sister island, Trinidad and only a few miles from Venezuela on the South American mainland. The nutrient-rich waters of the Orinoco wash the most southerly link in the Caribbean chain. Coral reefs flourish off Tobago, making it a good destination for diving - especially to the north of the island where divers may see Manta Rays and Turtles. The famous Pigeon Point beach is located on the southwest of this 27 mile long island but elsewhere along the coast are deserted coves interspersed with rural villages.

Daytime activities revolve around the lush gardens, poolside or on Bacolet Bay. Guests can take a stroll along the long half moon shaped Bacolet Bay beach at dusk to watch the pelicans diving in the warm Caribbean sea or enjoy the sun disappear over the horizon at the pool or at the Restaurant La Belle Creole.
