Arnos Vale Hotel

Frommer's Review

This inn -- one of the first hotels of Tobago's modern tourist age -- sprawls over 180 hectares (445 acres) of very private land. It's named after a township in England, although tour groups from Italy often fill up its chambers. This place was once a closely guarded secret, but it was a long time ago that the late Princess Margaret honeymooned here. The other celebs who used to flock here are off in Anguilla these days. Rooms, each with a private patio or veranda, are furnished with a wide spectrum of furniture, including some pieces dating back to the early 1960s, retained because many clients appreciate their slightly battered charm. Only a few of the units are actually on the beach. Suites are in a handful of individual bungalows. Not all bathrooms have tubs. Most of the socializing occurs at the likable bar, where you'll find a TV, strong drinks, and a loyal clientele that returns year after year.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; 2 bars (1 swim-up); outdoor pool; tennis court; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning
