Guest Report

Carmel & Phil Dennis from U.K. visited in August 2011 and awarded Five out of Five

Beautifully appointed and superbly located villa, in an elevated position directly overlooking Grafton Bay beach, c 25 metres above sea level. 50 metres to the beach, 150 metres to the beach bar and 200 metres to a superb restaurant, The Seahorse Inn. Well captured in photos on website but even closer to beach than we thought. An easy walk to a small supermarket & ATM. Located on the glorious Grafton / Turtle Beach Carribean side of the island. Housekeeper, gardener and pool service offer a personal and friendly service. Exemplary personal attention from Liz, the villa manager. Aircon in bedrooms. Fans in all rooms and on terrace. Very good value given capacity for six. Fully secured with private night time security guard on inclined private access road. A superb venue and highly recommended!

My wife and I stayed at the Yellowbird for our honeymoon. I can't say enough good things about our stay. The Villa is beautiful, as well as the surrounding area. Great views and very close to the beach. Within walking distance of several restaurants, a grocery store, and an ATM. The beach across the street offers good snorkeling around the black rocks, and the surf stayed very calm for our entire stay.

The villa also has updated kitchen appliances and washer and dryer. The bathrooms were clean and spacious. The back deck was probably my favorite place to spend my time. The pool is about 5ft (1.5m) deep and was of perfect size in my opinion. Also, there is also cable tv with most major channels which was another plus for me.

All in all, if I get a chance to make my way back to Tobago, Yellowbird will be where I stay.

Thank you to Liz and crew for making our stay a great start to our Marriage.

Jenna from Canada visited in January 2011 and awarded Five out of Five

My family and I recently enjoyed a getaway at yellowbird villa. After spoiling ourselves by staying there we all agreed that we would never be able to stay in a hotel again ;) having the luxery of your own kitchen, bbq, and private pool just makes the tobago visit that much better! The villa is also great because it is suited for all types of visitors: young adults, families with young children, or even an older group.

The staff there is also amazing! Liz will help you and put your mind at ease from the moment you inquire about booking the villas. Charmaine is friendly and keeps the villa spotless as is the rest of the staff! We also enjoyed a tour of the other two villas and they are also spectacular!

Great place to stay, we will be back next year for sure!

Yellowbird was truly a wonderful experience. The villa is comfortable and well furnished and the proximity to the beach is fabulous. We were well taken care of by Liz and Arlene. We will definitely be back.
