We stayed at the Bacolet beach club as Half moon blue was under repait. This hotel has definitely become one of our favorites in the island. It was quiet and peaceful. The staff were courteous and extremely professional. The scenery overlooking the private beach was magnificent. It was evident though that this hotel was another one that was hard-hit because of COVID and as a result the well-designed facilities showed significant signs of deterioration. I really hope that sufficient capital is invested to restore this facility to fulfil its potential to being one of the finest that Tobago has to offer.

Unforgettable Great Time

Was completely pleased with the room we was upgraded to all the receptionist was so professional and they went above and beyond to allow our stay to be comfortable to the point of late breakfast with the kind folks at the restaurant and checking out and returning back just to shower. Location is 10 minutes from Ferry but we hired a very inexpensive driver that took us around the area, thanks to all the staff.

My husband and I never saw the property. Apparently they were doing renovations and had no accommodations for us even though we had a booking through Expedia. Our flight came in really late and the staff were already on their way off the property when we arrived. 5 minutes later and we may have been stranded. They then put us up at Blue Havana across the road for the night. When we woke up the next morning there was NO WATER on the compound at Blue Havana! They gave us 2 bottles of water (yes 2 bottles) which means that all we could have done was brush our teeth. Half Moon Blue may actually be a nice place but I'll never know since I will never book with them again

Good Access to the beach and to 3 pools despite the long flights of stairs. However, the room was not very comfortable due to bats living in the ceiling and flying at night, the \"urine-like\" odor and the pigeon faeces on the balcony. Most of the restaurant's staff were unwelcoming and unhelpful, not to mention the food which was not very tasty. The cocktail drinks were also disappointing. The most disappointing thing was that we had no choice but to dine at this restaurant because there weren't any other options on that street. Lastly, we requested a taxi @ 4:30 am (shuttle service attached to the hotel) to take us to the port and he arrived at 5:15 am, without an apology!

Very friendly boutique hotel. Colonial atmosphere. Four poster beds and attractive mosquito nets.

The hotel resturant (across the road )provided a very good buffet breakfast with some local items as well as the usual european food. Other meals were a little expensive, as 10% service and 25% tax was added on to the advertised price. No other resturants were within walking distance, and the only transport was by taxi. The same problem applied to visiting local places- the hotel was a bit isolated, but self contained in a beautiful setting.

Great hotel on Tobago

The hotel was situated on a hill, so to access the rooms you had to use an outdoor tiled staircase which can be treacherous after rain, Upon check in I was warned about this, so was careful and avoided any mishap.

The room was excellent with good air-conditioning and a patio balcony with nice furniture. My favourite thing was a nice and firm bed.

A slight diisappointment was I was told to connect to a wifi server and password in which none of my devices found, however I was able to connect to the wifi server named after the hotel (A sister hotel) across the road using the password provided. But service was at times sketchy,

Meals could be got from the the restaurant across the road, which was good but a little formal and pricey.
Scarborough was a just over a mile from the hotel but you need transport to go there, waling is not really an option for the road.

Needs a total renovation

This place is very outdated. The standard room we booked for two nights looked terrible and smelled like mold. There was a hole in a window glass, instead of fixing they squeezed a tissue paper!! Couldn’t believe it! We of course requested to change a room. A lady kindly put us a better room which was an superior room but still looked pretty dirty especially the bathroom. The ocean view from the balcony and the bed were only nice parts. Next day when we went to the reception for another question there was a different lady. She told us in such a mean way as if we demanded an upgrade our room to the superior room. We just couldn’t believe.

Ok hotel

The hotel is quite nice. Lots of trees and green, birds singing in the morning, etc. The room was spacious and nicely featured. On the downside, I found the service not particularly charming; not a smile or a \"welcome\" upon arrival. You know, the kind of things one would like to know when arriving (internet password, etc.). I also found an open bottle of soap in the shower, half used, which was a pretty disgusting surprise (sorry to say). So, overall my stay was OK. Not terrible, not wonderful. Also, the location is ok only if you want to visit Tobago's capital; I had not realized that, and had to catch a cab (back and forth) from the beaches in the northern part of the island (which means roughly 30 min ride and some 15 USD per trip). Again, I think this is a nice hotel overall, although they may need to work a bit more on the quality of details and service delivery.

Overall good experience for the cost

I had an overall good stay here but I believe its around 2.5 star by US standards, the cost was a bit more than the quality of the hotel but it was worth it. The bathroom could have been cleaned better and a few other areas around the room. Also the view is not of Oceanfront it was in garden area. Breakfast was disappointingly overpriced for the basic items they had on the menu. I was expecting more local foods instead of the basic eggs and potatoes for 17 per person. Its far away from any walking areas so if you want to be in the middle of everything this is not the place for you go to Crown Point hotels. If you want a getaway from everything else it is the place for you but rent a car.

Walked down to ocean, private beach area for Bacolet Beach Club(lower rooms), which is part of Half Moon Blue(upper rooms). Breakfast was included. Good selection, bacon (or sausage) and eggs every day plus a different local entrée each day of the week.

Quiet beach resort

The resort was very nice. This resort is also part of the Bacolet Beach Club resort so there is access to that property as well. There were 3 pools (1at half moon, 2 at BBC) and a restaurant and beach bar. The beach access is private and secluded from all other users. The hotel room was very spacious and comfortable as well. The mattress was VERY firm, a little bit too firm for myself. As well, the wood floors and walls creak a lot and so you can hear all your neighbours. We were lucky to only have neighbours a couple of the nights we were there.
The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful with calling taxis for us to go to town.

Overall, the stay was very nice and relaxing and I would consider staying there again.

Beautiful Island style hotel..

After reading the reviews, I was very skeptical to stay here. It was my birthday and honeymoon so I really wanted the perfect place to relax, have fun and enjoy. I decided to take the chance and see what happens and I am extremely happy that I did. This place is beautiful and the cool island breeze and sea view is amazing. Believe me, based on the reviews, I tried to find something about Half Moon Blue, but honestly could not. From the wonderful receptionist Cathy, that had a fruit tray and wine in the room for us at check in, the very helpful staff at Café Havana and the complimentary island style breakfast, to the trek down to the very secluded beach…The trek to the beach could be a little tricky. A lot of stairs because of all the natural hills on the island, but once you get there, a swim with curious fishes makes it worthwhile. My husband loved it and he definitely wants to go back. Be sure to check out some of the island attractions, including Argyle waterfalls.

Room was spacious, and had a dresser with a safe. Breakfast at adjacent Cafe Havana was plentiful and good.

Is an easy 25 min walk along the coast cliff road to get into Sacrborough, so convenient for meetings there. Pretty views. Beach is behind Bacolet Beach Club (sister hotel to this one), but note that it is a fair climb down the stairs to the beach.

We stayed in the old part of the hotel, which is a good standard and has bit of character and charm, although it's a little shabby and tired in places. We didn't use the pool at the Half Moon Blue, but used the other pools over the road at the Bacolet Beach Club, which we almost had to ourselves. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food at the Havana cafe, where you go to eat breakfast is very good - fresh fruits, cereal, cooked breakfast and pancakes on one day. They accommodated our request for a pre-packed breakfast for our early flight. The AC in our room was working, but the fan didn't work. Generally a pleasant and relaxing stay.

Beautiful Colonial Style Hotel

Hotel is built on a hillside and has rooms in two wooden colonial style blocks at a high level either side of a small infinity pool. Reception and a bar/restaurant are at a lower level and you have access to the private beach, poo,l beach bar and restaurant of the sister hotel opposite. Rooms are light and spacious and have an 'old worlde'l feel. Hotels location is quiet but you are only a short walk to the Bacolet Bay beach and the local town, Scarborough. Rooms are well kept and staff are pleasant and helpful. The shared Havana restaurant provides a fair breakfast but the evening meals are unremarkable and overpriced, however the new on site D'Rum bar/cafe offers a tasty 'no frills' menu and better service. Previous problems with the WiFi in the rooms have been resolved and I enjoyed a good and unbroken connection during my stay.

Could do better!

Things started really well with the booking, it was our honeymoon so we contacted Rachel before arriving to arrange champagne etc, she is dealt with this professionally. Again it was Rachel who met us on arrival, she is a credit to the establishment. The cleaners were great too! However the breakfast staff were really quite miserable, it doesn't matter if you go early or late to breakfast, nothing gets refilled unless you ask - it is hit and miss whether they offer you toast and juice and it isn't because they are busy. Many people choose not to go there because the quality and lack of choice at breakfast is an issue. Whilst talking about bar staff, most do the bear minimum - there was one lovely lady, the others just don't engage. Probably because the owner Gloria a model is the same, she took breakfast in the restaurant and had fans bought over just for her, doesn't smile at her guests or engage - quite sad really.
Unfortunately not wanting to eat there so much meant extending the car hire for the full two weeks as you are quite far away from anything. Although if you do stay Salsa Kitchen is excellent and is a ten minute taxi ride.

Mixed feelings

Booked at half Moon Blue because the receptionist insisted they could not check me to Bacolet Beach Club due there being no room with a working lock although availability showed online. I don't think this was the case, I ended up being given a room at Bacolet Beach Club very late in the night on Monday 29 February after quite a long wait and run around. Half moon Blue is okay - nice view but the rooms are a bit old inside. They are not exactly modern chic but a bit dated.
