This was my first stay here and I have to agree with Tommy. After reading up on Hummingbird Heights I had mixed reviews but still decided to stay. A little more management is needed cause we asked if the apartment was air-conditioned and they said yes, also wireless internet and cable all yes but when we got their we were disappointed. The only thing that was good was the pool. We didn't even get a proper shower because a part fell out n no one came to repair it, so we had to bathe via a mug NO SHOWER. This place could be a wonderful place but the new management needs to tighten up because it's a lovely place.
Mr. Spence please work on the improvements. Please!!!!!

I have stayed at this place before and had a wonderful time, when Shirley was running the place.
So I decided to return. However, this time I was a bit disappointed. The property managers that currently run the place are not very friendly. Shirley made you feel so welcome. Also the biggest disappointment was that the place was not very clean. Ok, there were clean sheets on the bed and clean towels. But there were cobwebs everywhere and inside the cupboards were very dirty. Light bulbs in the bedrooms and one fan was not working. And inside the refridgerator was totally disgusting when we got there. We had to spend a while cleaning before we could enjoy the fantastic view and nice swimming pool.
Please Mr. Spence don't spoil the beauty of this place. Look afetr it and clean it up!
Thanks

OKay, it was 4 of us two couples. As seen in the pics the pool is beautiful and large. Enough room for alot of person. Its a nice view and also quiet lil area. Apt is spacious, clean and comfortable. Shirley is very nice.
However, there are some disadvantages, there is no air condition, so incests bit me as soon as i got there. I swear and not only me but the rest of persons, in the night we took a walk out the road and there were "crazies" on the corner heckling us, the trace is dark and lonely with no security, when u reach in her street u have to walk up a dark lonely hill to get to the house. We were afraid to bathe in the pool at night because of how it was not safe. There are bushes all around, in the day its nice but at night no... especially if d pool lights give trouble. The bedroom door cannot lock. Its just a bit scary.The staircase s just to much, and insects bit us whole day n night.
Honestly speaking Shirley is nice but the place is a bit scary. I will not advise young couples to go there.
A gate needs to be put in place for security.

My party of 6 stayed at Hummingbird Heights from Ash Wednesday through Friday. I did my research prior to reserving HBH: I read reviews, saw pictures and frequently emailed Shirley. And I must saw that upon arrival I was still blown away! We stayed on one of the higher levels which gave a breathtaking view of Tobago. The apartment was very clean, necessities provided, beds very comfy: overall it was just what we needed after Carnival. Although this does not apply to anyone reserving now, I must say the Shirley was great! She promptly responded to all my emails and was very accommodating.
There were only a few downfalls. 1) The poolside grounds could use some renovations; the pool of itself was perfect: great temp, obviously cleaned regularly, etc. However the area around the pool wasn't so tidy, but that was minor and not even an issue just an observation. 2) The 'stairway' could use some landscaping. Because we stayed on the third floor [I believe] it was quite a walk to the top and at night especially, all the greenery reduced visibility on the stairs. 3) HBH is not by the beach. It is tucked away up on a hill which was not only beautiful but provided an added boost in security! However, it is not in walking distance to either of the 2 major beaches. The good part, is that local taxis are not expensive!
Overall, Hummingbird Heights was amazing! I would've booked for Ash Wed 2011, but Shirley is moving on :-( Best of luck!
