Fun in paradise
We had a very relaxing time, the pool And the beach are great, there is a restaurant a short walk away that is ok depending what you order but the service was not that great. There is a church with in walking distance and a small convenience store within walking distance. Otherwise you have to take a taxi. Overall we did a lot of cooking in. It has a very nice kitchen with most of what you would need. Very relaxing week!

Good location. Luxurious accommodation.
Located on one of the best parts of the beach. The furnishings are quality. Good gourmet kitchen. Comfortable sofas. About the size of a small house. Perfect view of the ocean and sunset. I had a lovely alarm clock every morning when a blue bird came tapping on the window looking for insects. I could see the bottom of the ocean from my balcony. Secure location. Will definitely re-visit. Better value than most hotels in Tobago.

Book now....Don't Wait
The property is very spacious for our family of 6. Everything was clean and accurate as listed. The condo is about 20 minutes away from the airport and can be accessed easily. Pro: 1) Right on the beach with an awesome view. So beautiful 2) Quiet and safe location 3) Swimming pool on site 4) Open concept design with cold A/C throughout the house Con: 1) NONE :) Nothing to complain about. The hosts (Liz and her friend Judi) were awesome. They waited for us to help us checked in even at night. All questions or concerns were quickly answered. Very friendly people. Overall, I would definitely book this place again in a heart beat if I'm in Tobago again. Loved it!

Peaceful and relaxing
My family- parents, husband and child, stayed for several nights here. Such a peaceful spot in Tobago! The apartment was very well laid out and accommodating of every need. Conveniently located on the beach front with access to untouched snorkeling! Amazing fish, squid and coral reefs! Also very close (walking) to several excellent restaurants. Having a multi-generational group, the home was spacious and everyone could find their own spot to relax. Pool was a hit for all! Highly recommended! Thanks for hosting our family reunion.

Great chill spot
Great open concept living room, dining room and kitchen which also opens out to the patio. Perfect for family time spacious and relaxing. Awesome views and convenient to everything. Just wish 1 of the bedrooms was a bit bigger and the other bedroom had a queen been instead of 2 small beds. Great set up for family with kids not so much for 6 adults which included my elderly parents. But other than that it was as close to perfect as you can get. Love the decor and Liz was very kind. Thanks for hosting.

Great Location
This was our first trip to Tobago and thoroughly enjoyed the island and the accommodations! The Blue Marlin suite had everything we needed with plenty of room for five of us and beautiful views from the balcony. The apartment is very well maintained. We toured much of the island and beach in front of our location was as nice as any other beach we visited. Very clean and quiet. Liz was terrific, check in was smooth and information relating to the apartment and area was very helpful. We would not hesitate to rent this property again in the future. Thanks for the great experience! Cheers, Adam

Been goin to this property every year for the last 7 yrs...The place is all you need..once u settle down there is no need to go anywhere else..sun sea and sand..I live on the sister island Trinidad and for me to leave here and go Tobago, certain boxes needs to be checked: clean cool comfortable accomodations with all amenities, pool a property on the beach..no need to go anywhere..Otherwise I would just stay home and take a car and go to beach in Trinidad..The views from the apartment is stunning..the beach there at the begining is rought to do some boarding and the other end is very calm like a pool..best of both worlds..you can snorkel as there alot of coral rock...saw a few huge manta rays and a turtle last year....i could go on and on ..but this kinda sums it up

5 years ago I stood on the beach & vowed to return and stay at Black Rock Dreams... I did
Blue Marlin is a beautiful home-from-home which despite its homeliness manages to avoid being so personal that you feel you are intruding. Located on the top left corner (as you look from the beach) you have exceptional views. We were a family of 4 staying and the apartment generously catered for everyone's needs. There is ample space both in the open plan lounge, kitchen, dining area and outside on the large balcony for everyone to relax and claim space on their own. The master bedroom is particularly large and has its own sofa facing a set of French doors overlooking the sea. The twin bedroom is a good size with room to move around, and as advertised, the double bedroom is the smallest. There is enough space to walk around the double bed and a wardrobe provides shelving and hanging space. My daughter got this room and found the decorative stacking boxes in lieu of bedside cabinets rather lacking for surface space. I reminded her of the bathoom next door for her own use however which did give the required space for makeup etc. All the bathrooms have generous sized showers, the master also has a bath. There is also a separate utility/laundry room. On the practical side everything worked and is well maintained. The air conditioning in the large open plan living room is the best we've experienced. Each bedroom also has adequate aircon units and there are ceiling fans throughout. The WiFi worked perfectly and there were no complaints about speed or 'buffering' from the youngest so it must be good. As we usually stay in a villa, the idea of a shared pool bothered me but I needn't have worried. Most of the time we had the pool to ourselves or at most shared with another family. The gardens are beautifully maintained and again offer separate little seating areas to enjoy the view. And last but not least, the wonderful guardian of Blue Marlin, Liz Sloper. Liz is efficient and communicates well throughout the enquiry and booking stage. When you meet her she is warm and personable yet maintains a professional approach. She effortlessly and efficiently manages - think Mary Poppins! She also has great suggestions for where to go, what to see and where to eat so trust in her local knowledge as she's sharing her expertise and her desire for you is to enjoy your holiday in Tobago and have a wonderful time. Enjoy swimming in the sea, chatting to the friendly locals and be in awe of the breathtaking sunsets!

Fantastic beachfront property
We had a wonderful holiday at Blue Marlin. The property is perfectly maintained and has everything you need to enjoy your stay. We were visited daily by a lovely woman who cleaned up and made our beds. The property is very well managed by Liz, who welcomed us - she is friendly, knowledgable about Tobago and very helpful. We loved the fact that the beach is just steps away and the pool is perfect for children - it has both very shallow and deep areas, so great for kids learning to swim. If you want a relaxing, stress free holiday on the beach, I highly recommend this property.

Wonderful appartment in great location right on the beach. So even when it was a little overcast (or rainy....not often, hasten to add....it was the perfect place to just kick back and relax).

As the owners of this property it is difficult to write an unbiased review! We did receive a few comments about improvements we could make, these were all done during our visit. Liz is, as always,attentive and helpful. She and Lenore are key to the great running of the apartment. If you want a relaxed, comfortable and unspoiled holiday this is perfect.

Great location, needs a few updates
The kitchen appliances, utensils & crockery etc needs a serious upgrade. There are also old bathrooms that need need toilet seats, bath jets fixing and shower heads that need a serious clean. The steps to go down to the pool & beach are extremely dangerous. Overall these apartments could easily be a 4* if it had some attention paid to it! Fabulous location.

The property felt like home.
We had an enjoyable family vacation and this home contributed to it. There were many places for us to gather together and share happy times. The location was lovely as well with beautiful views of the sea and the coastline. The sounds of the waves was like a lullaby that rocked us to sleep every night. Every morning I walked on the beach before sunrise because walking on the beach was as simple as stepping out of our door. I even saw the the baby leatherback turtles making their first journey to the sea. This apartment felt safe and secure, and Liz, the manager was very helpful and supportive and always available. The home was well furnished and was enjoyable for the young members of our family and the older ones. We also enjoyed the shared pool area space.

Amazing home at an amazing beach
As we’ve never been to Tobago, we had a basic idea of where we wanted to stay. Somewhere away from Pigeon Pointe area with a nice beach and a bit private. If this is what you desire too, look no further. It starts well before check-in with fantastic communication from Liz, the property manager. If you’re not renting a car or if you’re coming in late she’ll arrange to have some provisions waiting for you upon your arrival. The rental also comes with maid service throughout your stay. The home is large! 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a huge kitchen to cook in with all need supplies, a dining room, family room with couches and the most wonderful outside area to watch amazing sunsets. The home is on the 3rd floor and is a corner unit. My opinion is that it is definitely the best unit in the building. It offers seclusion with only one neighbor and offers some unobstructed views of the beach and sunset. There are plenty of loungers outside for the whole family to enjoy. The beach is wonderful. We traveled with our 5 year old son and loved it. The spiral staircase on the patio is so convenient to get downstairs to the pool and beach access. 20 more steps and you’re in the water. To the left, the beach is a bit rougher and my son loved playing in the waves with his tube. To the right is the most wonderfully crystal clear calmer water. You can hug the rock line and walk to a little private cove with a beach. If you’re not into exploring the other beaches of the island and if you don’t have a rental car, you could stay here for your entire vacation and not be disappointed. We’ve already recommended this property to a large portion of our friends after they saw the pictures of how beautiful it is. Tobago is a bit different that the other Caribbean islands we’ve traveled to. A bit more rustic and untouched. No issues with safety anywhere on the island and especially not at the property. They take enormous measures to make their guests feel safe, alarm, on-site property manager, locked gates and a private locked parking garage. Don’t hesitate to book, if this unit is available, do it!
