Lesley from Trinidad visited in June 2011 and awarded  Five out of Five

From the moment of our arrival, we were wrapped in a cocoon of safety and comfort. The apartment itself is luxurious with comfortable beds in every room. As it was only two of us, the master bedroom and bath was more than spacious for our needs. The kitchen and gas BBQ grill were a dream to cook with. Nothing beats waking up to the sound of the surf every morning coupled with the noiseless comfort of the A/C unit. The pictures on the website do not do this apartment sufficient justice. The pool was a bit on the high-chlorine side but although it seems small it a deep and shallow enough for different levels of swimmers. We had a great time at Mahi Mahi and cannot wait to return!

From the moment we arrived, I found everything to be far, far better than I expected. Gillian was a wonderful host who went out of her way to make sure my sister and I had a great time, taking us to get groceries as soon as we landed and recommending the great restaurants around the area for meals.

I think a car would be worth it if you want to explore Tobago or take a drive now and then (although Gillian can arrange tours if you desire), but if you're like me, the moment you step into Mahi Mahi, you won't want to leave.

The apartment is so spacious, well-appointed, elegant and cozy that the only time I left it was to eat, or bathe in the pool. I never made it to the beach and I didn't miss it.

My time there was far too short. I can't wait to return to that beautiful balcony, the sea views, the quiet apartment and lovely grounds--and most of all, and my new friend Gillian. I would give it ten stars if I could.

I stayed here for a weekend to celebrate my birthday and we had a fabulous time. In fact before we left we were trying to decide when we should return.

However, in the interests of being a balanced reviewer I will list the pros and cons of the place.

Pros:

Mahi Mahi is exactly as advertised, what you see on the website is exactly what you get. It's on the beach, the rooms are immaculate, the pool is a little small but because of the way it's designed you don't mind once you're in it. It really is perfection, if you're looking for a quiet relaxing, vacation. The WI-FI was a big bonus for us as well. Everything we used in the kitchen worked so even though we didn't cook it was great to have the option.

Seahorse Inn and Restaurant is literally 2 mins walk from the property, because it was low season they only served dinner, but the food we had was great.

Buccaneers Beach bar was a nice enough spot to have lunch but the menu was rather limited. It's almost opposite Seahorse Inn though so it's a really convenient stop.

Cons:

The beds in the second and third bedroom are a little narrow However, the beds were extremely comfortable so it wasn't much of a negative.

We chose Mahi Mahi because we thought we wouldn't need a car due to the proximity to the beach and restaurants, but in truth we probably would have had a better time with one. In general I recommend renting a car in Tobago otherwise your options are really limited. Unless of course you're doing guided tours etc.

There was some bad weather off Trinidad which made the beach rather choppy. Although it was still swimmable, as we aren't strong swimmers we chose to stay in the pool and just walk on the beach occasionally. However I suppose this is a risk if you're travelling in hurricane season, no matter where you stay. And even with the swells the view from the balcony was still amazing.

All in all we had a great time and I'd recommend this place to anyone interested in a nice quiet relaxing vacation, with all the amenities of home.

Stelios Christopoulos from Trinidad visited in May 2010 and awarded  Three out of Five

We have stayed in the Mahi Mahi Suite several times over the last 2 years.

Overall, our stay has been more than satisfactory. Chris has always been most helpful and readily available to assist us. He is taking good care of the whole compound. Gillian has been our contact point and has always assisted us in a professional and consistent way.

The suite is fully and adequately equipped and the wireless internet connection is reliable.

Upon our arrival we always found the apartment clean and well kept. However, we experienced problems with the AC units and the supply of hot water. The latter was fixed during our last two stays in 2010. The central and biggest AC unit in the living room has never functioned. This obliges us to turn on two units, one in the master bedroom and another one in one of the other two bedrooms more often and longer than otherwise would have been the case.

The overal relationship between quality and price is good.
