I had the pleasure of returning to Kariwak for a couple of nights. I was in Tobago to meet family but due to flight timings from the UK had to spend a day solo before they arrived. As a lone female traveller there was nowhere else I would have considered. Kariwak is not only a beautiful and relaxing environment, it is also super convenient from the airport (a five minute walk), close by to the beach (although I ended up just basking by the beautiful pool) and near to a whole heap of restaurants and eateries. I chose to take all my meals on site in the famously delicious restaurant. The menu is small because it’s prepared with care and is unbelievably delicious. The hotel is known throughout T&T for its excellent food. The food came out hot, quick and tasty. I had a cabana style room near the pool which was perfect for me as I could easily access the bar, restaurant and pool. The room was perfectly appointed - simple but comfortable. I was grateful for a break from the tech and gadgets - I get more than enough of those at home! There’s a touch of the old school retro to this place, you feel like you’re in a movie from the 70s as you recline sipping a cocktail and listening to the bananaquits. The staff were incredibly attentive. Julian in particular was a real star - super courteous and welcoming, as well as keen to make sure I felt comfortable as a solo traveller. He also makes a mean cocktail! Before I went I was so sad to see some of the negative reviews on here. I didn’t believe they could be true and having visited again I can assure you they aren’t! Kariwak remains one of the best places to stay in Tobago period. Some advice: you’re in one of the most beautiful countries in the world, relax into it, enjoy the moment and don’t trouble yourself looking for faults! If you are a super particular traveller - unfortunately there isn’t anywhere in Tobago that will offer a 7 star hotel standard but that’s what makes it SO SPECIAL! 🌞
