Loved the scenic views of the ocean which transported us to another place. Very calming and peaceful, very friendly staff and clean rooms and surroundings. They should have someone cleaning the beach which had some debris which was very minor.

You can't beat the location! This side of the island is so picturesque. Being right on the ocean front is amazing. Falling asleep and waking up to the sound of the ocean is so relaxing. I would say however that the property could use a bit of an upgrade and better maintenance. We stayed in room 32 and the door lock was a bit tough to get open especially when trying to juggle my baby, bags and trying to open the door. We used the games room and all of the games were either broken or pieces missing. During our stay there was seaweed on the beach which wasn't ideal but I know isn't something that can't be controlled. However, we stayed for 3 days 2 nights and it's only on the day we were checking out we noticed a maintenance crew on the beach removing the seaweed. I wished that this was done on a daily basis so we cud have enjoyed the beach a bit more. I must say however that the staff are very friendly and accommodating.

It's the perfect getaway location, surrounded by nature. Very tranquil. I would definitely visit again, because I'd have an idea of what to expect. The room was dated and the hotel surrounding is not up-kept, seems like there is minimum staff which affected the service received. It was not very clean. The standard rooms are exceedingly small and no TV. WIFI provided is very slow and kept on dropping. I did not notice any security at the boot upon entry or at the hotel. Food menus are very limited.

The location is really good: calm, private bay, the hotel needs renovation, they cleaned the rooms only after special requests. We had to pay doble to upgrade, ‘cause ordinary rooms aren’t the place where you want to spend your vacation

Love the location. menu needs a bit of an upgrade in terms of its fresh grilled fish and seafood dishes but more than adequate. There are some minor maintenance issues with blinds, toilets. There is no daily cleaning due to the pandemic but the staff gave me a mop and broom to do the floors so no biggie. The rooms are beautifully furnished the outside with recliners and our own dining table and chairs. Very Peaceful. Big Plus Gemma's Treehouse restaurant who deliver to the hotel.

In light of the restrictions due to COVID-19, the hotel was not overpacked with guests which was great and customer service was great. I didn’t enjoy the breakfast ordered on either days however my stay was good overall.

My stay here was disappointing. It was the 5th time i stayed at this hotel. The grounds and ammenities were up to par however we did not receive the benefits mentioned- free bottle of wine and welcome drinks. In addition, the restaurant's food, drinks and service were very disappointing. I've enjoyed the meals here previously. Their dinner and breakfast was by far, one of the best on the island. However, sad to say, their standards seemed to have dropped immensely.

Great ambience, small enough to be cosy, modern facilities. There seemed to be some slippage in maintenance which is understandable due to significantly reduce occupancy with the pandemic but nothing to impact our overall satisfaction. Hopefully this can be dealt with before our next trip.

Location, ambiance and views were amazing. Staff were super friendly and Izolah was always wiling to go the extra mile. Lunch and dinner were superb. Breakfast could have been a bit better. My only minor complaint was that wifi in the room did not work and the ocean view was obstructed by trees. Other than that, our one night stay was fantastic. Will definitely be back.

Location- remote gem. About an hour drive from scarborough. Lovely beach and scenery. Hotel spans an entire bay. Great views from restaurant, beachfront rooms. Food options were limited but tasted good. The property however was very run down. Jetty is in shambles with alot of loose boards, lack in cleaning upkeep. We had to ask on day 3 for housekeeping to tidy our room for the first time since check in because it was not done since. Our toiletries would not have been replaced had we not asked. Porch was filthy. Lock in room door was old and worn out. Tv in room did not work. This place has so much potential but seems to be neglected. Given the great reviews seen in the past i was very disappointed.

Absolutely amazing experience
This place was absolutely amazing! The staff was more then friendly they felt like family. Made us feel so good about our stay. The weather was not so good during our stay it was rainy but it was such and amazing atmosphere that we didn’t care about the rain. The food was ssssooooo delicious and the options were great to choose from. The pool was beautiful the ocean was beautiful the entire place was beautiful. The guys who took us on the glass bottom boat were so nice we went snorkeling and it was so much fun. There were so many fun activities to do. We are definitely returning to Blue waters inn.

Our booking showed a beachfront room but on arrival the room was up a flight of stairs with a beachfront view from the balcony. My husband uses a cane so this was not acceptable for us, we did get moved to a beachfront room after two days but we had to pay 50% extra to do this. The stay was great after the move!

Beautiful location but overpriced
The Blue Waters Inn is set in a beautiful private alcove in a stunning location with a lot of privacy on a secluded part of Tobago. The beach is very private and great for swimming, there is a long boat dock you can walk on or dive off and the pool and restaurant/bar location are top notch. However, for the price, the room is very basic, the food mediocre, the service underwhelming. In addition, the pool closes too early and the hotel charges for early check in. Tobago doesn't have many high end options so this is probably the best you're gonna get but don't expect that this hotel will match similarly priced hotels in other locations.
