1 Bedroom Cottage in Charlotteville
Charlotteville (within the UNESCO biosphere reserve) is approximately 1.2hrs from the Tobago Airport, and off the beaten path. It is the most picturesque of villages in Tobago. It is isolated by the mountains to the south and a narrow winding road to the west, the quaint village nestles on steep cliffs above the deep blue Man O’ War Bay. The village remains unspoiled and pristine with little development. About a 10-minute walk from Bella Vista, there are beach facilities and a couple restaurants offering local cuisines. About a 15-minute hike from the village, is the Pirate’s Bay, a secluded and beautiful bay!
Bella Vista cottage overlooks the village, rainforest and Caribbean Sea. It is situated close enough to experience village life but tucked away to enjoy solitude and the most breath-taking views of the ocean, village, and rainforest! Beautiful beaches are just a 5-10 min walk away.
Bella Vista is a cozy one bedroom, one-bathroom wooden cottage perched on a steep hillside. The cottage sits on an acre of lush garden amidst tropical flowers, and fruit trees. The location is ideal for bird watching - motmot, bananaquits, parrots, tanagiers, corn birds, hummingbirds, cocricos (Tobago's national bird) and others. Place a banana on the feeder and hang out on the deck for the show!
The kitchen features a full-size fridge freezer, microwave, full gas cooker with oven, electric kettle, electric coffee maker and toaster. The kitchen, living room, dining and bedroom area all open onto the large deck. Mosquito net is provided.
If you chose to be car-free for all/most of your stay, affordable public transportation (buses and taxis) can be accessed in the village opposite the gas station. They can take you anywhere en route to Scarborough. You can also hire a driver at a very reasonable rate to take you around. Car rentals can be found online or at the Tobago airport.
Guest parking available for one vehicle at the front of cottage.
From the hammock, listen to the waves, or watch the pelicans play in the Caribbean Sea. Stroll through the village, pick up fresh produce / seafood from vendors, and enjoy a freshly picked coconut! Hike or take a boat to Pirate’s Bay to swim/snorkel in the crystal-clear waters. Paradise! In the evenings, unwind on the deck with your favourite beverage.
