It’s clean, quiet, comfortable surrounded by Mother nature. The breakfast is second to none. I am going back in June with my team. This place is simply the best.

The property was private and no commercial entertainment around it. If you have no personal vehicle with you then it is hard to stay. The property owner was very helpful in giving a ride to go out.

A wonderful old home kept in A1 condition. A lift into town turned into a real orientation of the area. Unsolicited we were driven to airport at 5am and given a lovely breakfast to take with us. What service. Highly recommend.

A very relaxing stay at Native Abode. Stein the owner/manager is friendly, efficient and very helpful and the ladies who do the cleaning are lovely. Quiet location with very little passing traffic, and the garden behind the property is really nice with fruit trees, hummingbirds etc. Very well equipped rooms, with lots of hi-tech equipment that all works (!). Very comfortable bed. Spotlessly clean. Handy for all the Crown Point amenities (restaurants, gas station, supermarket, airport) while you feel you’re part of a nice, small local community when you’re staying there. Wide range of produce for breakfast. We were in one of the smaller rooms which was slightly cramped in places and a little dark, but really we can’t think of anything else remotely negative to say!

We stayed here as an overnight as we arrived in Tobago late at night and were then travelling onward the next day. Native Abode was absolutely perfect for what we needed. Stein, the owner, could not have been more helpful. Our room was great - comfortable bed, excellent shower, balcony, and small kitchen area. Breakfast was simply awesome - fruits and bread and a really lovely array of cooked vegetables (what with me being vegan). Stein gave us a little tour of his fruit garden which was lovely. Cannot recommend this place highly enough.

A 5 minute drive to and from the airport, Store Bay and Pigeon Point. The room was very comfortable, clean and felt like a home away from home. The breakfast was delicious and Stein (the hotel manager) was very knowledgeable, providing us with suggestions and tips of places that we could visit during our stay. We were allowed to do an early check in and later check out without worry to accomodate our flight. This helped maximize our time and allowed us some wiggle room to get that last bit of beachtime before leaving. I highly recommend and will definitely return.

Go...but bring ear plugs
The only downside to this place are the stray dogs that roam the area and bark all night. Bring ear plugs because the place is beautiful and well worth the stay. It is an amazing place!

Home from home Tobago style
We booked an 8-day stay based on other reviews on Expedia and TripAdvisor and were not disappointed in the least. Our room was impeccable and every last thing had been thought of down to the 3D glasses in case we wanted to watch a 3D movie. The breakfast was delicious and loved the choice, especially being able to enjoy local specialities and fruit from the garden. If you have a chance, ask Stein to show you round his pride and joy: the garden. It's just wonderful! We enjoyed our daily walk into Crown Point to go to Store Beach or Pigeon Point, but if you're after somewhere with a pool, or just next to the beach, Native Abode isn't for you. If you're looking for a truly relaxing, restorative vacation with Tobagonian hospitality, this is it!

Nice place outside Crown Point
We really liked Native Abode! Quiet location on a side street in Bon Accord. It's not right on the beach or anything, but we rented a car and spent most of our time on the other side of the island anyway. Breakfast was delicious and the staff was very helpful too. Room was very clean and we liked the small balcony we had too.

Lovely B & B not far from the airport
This B & B is family run and very friendly. Stein and his family couldn't have been more helpful-taking us to the bank, showing us the local beaches and shops and delivering us to the airport at the end of our stay. Our room was high tech with wireless internet, free calls to the UK and the US and even a Bose sound system. The breakfasts were huge- the amount of food I would normally eat for a main meal. The surrounding garden was beautiful.

Lovely cozy bnb with fantastic amenities
Staying at Native Abode was the highlight of my very short trip to Tobago! Stein picked me up and dropped me off at the ferry terminal at no charge and was extremely friendly and hospitable throughout my stay. He was always smiling, happy to help, and prepared a delicious breakfast the next morning. The backyard has a beautiful garden, and the area is quiet and residential. I borrowed one of the hotel's free bikes to get around Pigeon Point, which was also a great experience. I had lost my room key somewhere along the way, but Stein didn't give me any trouble for it and didn't even charge me to get it replaced. Overall, I had a fantastic time and would love to stay here again!

Loved this little hotel. The service was impeccable and the rooms were neat and clean. For the size of the hotel, I was amazed by the level of technology in each of the rooms. There was a perfect tiny kitchenette in the room and a small balcony as well. The breakfast included with the room was wonderful. They have a cute little garden at the back of the hotel as well. overall a great experience.

More than amazing
The owner picked me up and was will to take me anywhere. The room was superior with air conditioning, netflix and cable, and free calls to the USA! The breakfast was always fresh and tasty. I believe Americans tend to overeat and may see the portions as small but the portion size is consistent with many of other places I traveled in the world. The beach is also about a 20-30 minute walk from the B&B.

Amazing!
My husband and I stayed here 12/01 to 12/03. We loved it so much that we changed our flight back home twice just so we could enjoy paradise a little bit longer! Stein and his sister (I didn't catch this sweet person's name) were so accommodating. They treated us like royalty and made our stay very memorable. The rooms were spotless, bed was comfortable and my favorite were free calls back home to Texas! I was able to call my mother each day to check on my dogs. The room looks better than the pictures.I could never get tired of the home cooked breakfast each morning. We felt very safe in this neighborhood. We are looking forward to many more stays at the Native Abode!

A lovely retreat in Bon Accord Village
What can I say more than all the other reviews for this wonderful guesthouse. It is a family run home and everyone there is kind and helpful, willing to transport visitors to the beach, for shopping in the area. The breakfasts are all from local food; most of the fruit on their fruit plate are frm their garden. I loved being able to stroll through the Bon Accord village neighbourhood and see the homes and lifestyle of the people there, and I was perfectly secure. Read all the other glowing reviews, and I will echo them.

Great vacation
There is a reason that the Native Abode is the #1 B&B in Crown Point, Tobago. My wife and I enjoyed our accommodations so much, we extended our stay an extra 3 days, which was the first time we've ever done that in 25 years of marriage. Having read the previous reviews, we decided to see what all the fuss was all about. I must say that the reviews were all spot on. Please read the previous reviews about the Native Abode that comment on the amazing amenities that Kaye, Stein and family provide. You won't be disappointed.

Tobago - first visit
This was our first trip to Tobago and because of the excellent service provided by Stein and family it will definitely not be the last. The hotel is located within walking distance of Store Bay and Pigeon Point beaches (10-20 mins) and if you don't like walking then a local taxi will get you there for $3.00TT (50 cents US). Stein even took us there on our first day. The hotel room was clean, spacious and comfortable. Wi Fi was always available - free of charge. Cable TV and Netflix also available.And if you knew how to program the remote Stein had a lot of local events available for viewing - calypso shows, steelband concerts etc. Breakfast which came with the room was excellent (spectacular might be a better word). We loved the local cuisine. Only wished dinner was available. Also, the hotel is just a short distance from the airport (about 5 minutes) and even so we never heard any noise from any airplane - only the roosters early in the morning.

Cosy little place
We stayed here for a weekend while going to a friend's wedding. The airport transfers, a welcome amenity, were done by Stein - the manager. He was very pleasant and accommodating. The room was clean, cosy (small but comfortable and well-appointed). We loved the included Netflix and wi-fi as I was still working while there. Breakfast was very nice though the portions a bit small - I was still hungry afterward but there are many food options nearby. All in all it was still a very restful, pleasant stay. Would stay again.

Comfortable hotel close to airport
We had a very comfortable night's stay at this hotel after a long and tiring flight from the UK. The staff were excellent and extremely helpful and welcoming. The room was cool and well equipped - the bed very comfortable indeed. Air conditioning, fridge, microwave etc all useful for longer stays than our overnight booking Breakfast was lovely, served in a very attractive dining room. Manager very kindly transferred us personally to our self catering apartment the following morning.

Nice place close to Store Bay and Pigeon Pt.
My husband and I stayed from March 25th to March 28th 2014. Stein picked us up at the airport. Stein and all hotel staff were very accommodating and very kind. The room was very clean, very comfortable and pleasant. There were no mosquitoes. Snacks were available and there was spring water available to drink. There was netflix and cable as well. The documentation available in the room about the hotel and about what was around in the area was very helpful. Although there are restaurants within walking distance you can't always be sure if they are open so it is better to rent a car while staying there. The breakfast entrees were very delicious. You simply need to order them from the night before by dialing 0 from the room. The fruits and juices were great. We particularly enjoyed the punches, they were absolutely delicious! Sitting outside was also nice as well. Perfect for nature lovers. It was like a home away from home. I would recommend this hotel and I would go back. This hotel does not have a pool however that's okay since it is close enough to Store Bay.

Very amenable manager who was very engaging and helpful. Enjoyed breakfast and dining area. In spite of a very comfortable room still consider the rate pricey. Location was a major drawback as there are so many hotels closer to the beaches and other attractions.

Great for couples
Relaxed setting, extremely hospitable staff. I was worried that everything would be too cozy and intimate with just 4-5 rooms there. However, we rarely ran into other guests and felt like the layout afforded us some privacy without being too isolated. Stein was generous with his time and offered us rides to places since we didn't rent a car on this trip.
