The Palms Villa Resort

Tobago is a gentle island renowned for its beaches, scuba diving, bird life and a relaxed lifestyle. And at the Palms Villa Resort, you can slow the pace even further. Set on a 10-acre estate, five private villas are surrounded by flourishing rainforest and landscaped gardens. Combining the tranquillity and beauty of the landscape, with the convenience of being only minutes from palm-lined beaches, national parks and island shopping.

The resort's friendly concierge is on hand to reserve restaurants, book scuba diving excursions, and plan your day-to-day activities. Order in advance and they will even do your shopping. On arrival your personal housekeeper will have a hot meal waiting for you. If you think a villa means self catering then think again - restaurants are minutes away or you can even book your own chef!

Each villa accommodates between two and six guests in three beautifully decorated, en-suite bedrooms, with French doors leading onto the verandahs and both ceiling fans and air-conditioning for maximum comfort. There is a large lounge area, furnished with cable TV, DVD player, stereo, board games and plenty of books to read. Each villa has its own full size private pool and small paddle pool, complete with pool-side barbecue and large verandahs, for that true outdoor living experience.

The Palms Villa Resort has a close affiliation with one of the best dive centres on the island and the resident Resort Manager is a PADI Master Instructor. Whether you need picking up from the Villa or a private lesson in your private pool, everything is possible.
