I observed most of the reports uploaded are a bit short of information and confirmation and I am here to tell it like it is...
My girlfriend and I were seeking a Tobago vacation for the weekend...and like you, I turned to the most comprehensive online database for help i.e. mytobago.info. I came across the Petit Careme Apartment after an advance search for a 1 bedroom accommodation. 4.5 of 5, pretty high and some lovely photos. But we know photos can tell a thousand lies. But in this case, they didn’t!!!
The Petit Careme Apartment is nothing less than 5 of 5, plus 1 for Charmaine; she is the "heart of the home". This is no Studio Apartment, it’s a Home... excellent layout, electronically secured and located in a gated area.
I just loved the hidden Laundry Area enclosed by bifolding closet doors. Ingenious! Washing machine, dryer, wash sink, hot and cold.
Full kitchen...Electrical stove with a range, a smoke detector, dish washer, large fridge, microwave, etc plus cupboards with clean utensils and a modest dining table.
Living room...32 inches of LCD TV, cable, dvd and cd stereo, small dvd library, and lots of magazines...
Bedroom...clean, spacious, air conditioned with a queen size bed, a full bed and a crib with a connecting walk in closet.
Bathroom...clean, connects to the bedroom and the living room, is spacious, vanity, ventilated by an extractor.
Hmmm that was the inside. Just outside, lounge chair, outdoor chairs, table set, gas bar b q grill, a large well kept private garden, a large communal pool (very clean) with bar area and the Golf Course a few metres away.
Free wireless internet, a gate controller (for the electronic gate), and a secure park in direct view from the front door and bedroom window.
The Cons:
The Bed was so damn comfortable, we woke up late every morning, too lazy to get up to see the Coricos. Because of that bed we weren’t able to have any picnics in the private garden area nor take walks across the Golf Course to the beach.
Long and short...we just didn't stay long enough. This place is wonderful, full of relaxing things to do…Money well spent.
Already planning our next (longer) stay.
Hats off to the Barrows and Charmaine. I got a peep of the Villa; it's even better...wow.
