I traveled to Tobago for a nature and cultural experience. The Man-O-War cottage was just what I was looking for. I didn't want a sterile Best Western where the locals are trying hard to make us feel like we were still in America. Being on an old plantation, in our own private cottage, with the village people passing by was... More

I just came across this website. It is with my graet amazement that i have read these negetive letters.Man O War Bay Cottages is a paradise on the edge of the rainforest.

Filthy huts, broken mosquito nets, dreadful food and management which was at best indifferent and at worst hostile. We left early. A rip-off.

We have visited here twice and will be returning. Need I say more? Beautiful location with a variety of flower, fruits and birds. Snorkeling is fantastic and I swam daily with a little school of squid. We chose to eat out or fix our own meals. We did hire a cook our first trip but like the flexibility of "doing... More
