We stayed at the Bacolet beach club as Half moon blue was under repait. This hotel has definitely become one of our favorites in the island. It was quiet and peaceful. The staff were courteous and extremely professional. The scenery overlooking the private beach was magnificent. It was evident though that this hotel was another one that was hard-hit because of COVID and as a result the well-designed facilities showed significant signs of deterioration. I really hope that sufficient capital is invested to restore this facility to fulfil its potential to being one of the finest that Tobago has to offer.

Unforgettable Great Time
Was completely pleased with the room we was upgraded to all the receptionist was so professional and they went above and beyond to allow our stay to be comfortable to the point of late breakfast with the kind folks at the restaurant and checking out and returning back just to shower. Location is 10 minutes from Ferry but we hired a very inexpensive driver that took us around the area, thanks to all the staff.

This was a fantastic hotel. There are three pools and separate hotels, but they are all connected and apart of the same resort. The private beach is beautiful and easily accessible. The restaurant and bar is delicious. I had dinner and drinks with the owners, and they were lovely people. We had a great evening. I would highly recommend.

It was impossible to contact this property, Half Moon Blue. No one answered any calls. On arrival, we transferred to the sister hotel , Bacelot Beach Club which was much better, although their internet connection broke down also. The restaurant was good and the hotel and beach were in a beautiful bay. Would not recommend Half Moon Blue, needs upgrading.

My husband and I never saw the property. Apparently they were doing renovations and had no accommodations for us even though we had a booking through Expedia. Our flight came in really late and the staff were already on their way off the property when we arrived. 5 minutes later and we may have been stranded. They then put us up at Blue Havana across the road for the night. When we woke up the next morning there was NO WATER on the compound at Blue Havana! They gave us 2 bottles of water (yes 2 bottles) which means that all we could have done was brush our teeth. Half Moon Blue may actually be a nice place but I'll never know since I will never book with them again

The room I booked wasn't available, but I was promptly upgraded to a room at Bacelot beach club which is the sister property across the street. The room at Bacelot has a stunning view of the ocean. The room was huge. The shower was huge. The towels are huge. I loved everything about this place. Even though it's an older boutique hotel it is being maintained very well.

The receptionist after checking in could rarely be found. The bar/liming area were run down, mildew all on the fabric umbrellas, warn out poolside chairs. The room was quite cozy, however, left over clothing from a previous vacationer.....no privacy to the toilet area, soiled cushions on the varanda. No type of clean up tools like mops or broom to clean up spills etc. Internet was sticking, firestick issues. Had to go over the road to another hotel to have breakfast and my gorsh loads of determine flies.

This is an old property - don't mind that so much, but it needs to be kept in better condition. They had curtains that did not fit - did not cover the windows. Can't believe someone saw that and thought it was ok to have a paying customer there. Allot of attention to detail in keeping this old place clean, would go a long way.

The room was clean and service good. The ambiance was great keeping so much of the natural vegetation. The food at the restaurant was good. The television service was poor in that stations were difficult to get and when logged on they froze up often in a showing.

Good Access to the beach and to 3 pools despite the long flights of stairs. However, the room was not very comfortable due to bats living in the ceiling and flying at night, the "urine-like" odor and the pigeon faeces on the balcony. Most of the restaurant's staff were unwelcoming and unhelpful, not to mention the food which was not very tasty. The cocktail drinks were also disappointing. The most disappointing thing was that we had no choice but to dine at this restaurant because there weren't any other options on that street. Lastly, we requested a taxi @ 4:30 am (shuttle service attached to the hotel) to take us to the port and he arrived at 5:15 am, without an apology!

Very friendly boutique hotel. Colonial atmosphere. Four poster beds and attractive mosquito nets. Well placed for the beach ( sandy, gently shelving beach down short but steep steps, plenty of shade from trees and a beach bar. Sun loungers provided.) Two swimming pools in a beautiful setting. The hotel resturant (across the road )provided a very good buffet breakfast with some local items as well as the usual european food. Other meals were a little expensive, as 10% service and 25% tax was added on to the advertised price. No other resturants were within walking distance, and the only transport was by taxi. The same problem applied to visiting local places- the hotel was a bit isolated, but self contained in a beautiful setting.

The private beach was amazing. I felt secure and the fact that it wasn't too far from the main town centre. I would like to see more variety for breakfast next time.
