Situated on the lovely south western coast of Tobago, the smart, red-roofed Coco Reef Resort is only five minutes’ drive from the airport, and eight km from the capital, Scarborough. It is located between two of the island’s best beaches and overlooks its own bay.

Its architecture is sensitive to Trinidad and Tobago’s traditions, and the décor makes imaginative use of terracotta tiles, bamboo and wicker furniture, with special features including elegant staircases, fountains and statues.

There is a freshwater pool, tennis facilities and horse-riding can be arranged.
