Nestled on the hillside with rainforest as a backdrop, and ocean below, our eco-hideaway on the edge of the Caribbean village of Castara invites you to celebrate the stunning nature that surrounds. Enjoy a ‘living in the landscape’ experience in one of our treehouse-style self-catered accommodations, each built in perfect synthesis with the surrounding environment, and angled to soak-up the glorious views. We invite you to experience the tropical paradise in this unspoilt corner of the Caribbean that so captivated us 15 years ago. If you are looking for five star luxury in an exclusive Tobago hotel, we’re likely not for you. But if it’s a more subtle sort of luxury that you seek, our tropical hideaways capture the simple, exotic essence of Tobago and exude warmth, creativity and style. Blending into the lush surrounding landscape, each lodge has a serene and natural feel, and you’ll find all you need to unwind and recharge. Comfort is paramount, with luxurious beds and spacious hammocks, expansive decks and well-equipped kitchens, we strive to deliver a level of quality that sets us apart from others. Please note we need 24 hours notice of a reservation.

Sue and Steve Felgate discovered Castara 15 years ago fell in love with its raw beauty, lovely people and tropical climate. They had a vision for creating somewhere that embraced life’s simple luxuries and celebrated the gorgeous natural surroundings. The local team - led by charismatic Porridge and his wife Jeanell - will do their best to ensure your stay is a happy one. Their openness of spirit and heartfelt welcome puts even the most stressed-out of us at our ease, gradually helping us connect with the relaxed Tobago ‘go slow’ attitude that many have found to be so beguiling. They have created a warm and intimate atmosphere around the place, where people are welcomed as guests, but depart as friends.
