Tree-top experience on the Caribbean Sea
On Tobago's pristine northwest coast, high on a hill at the edge of the Caribbean village of Castara and tucked into the lush rainforest, are the treehouses of eco-lodge Castara Retreats. Each hardwood treehouse is built in perfect harmony with its surroundings and offers views of the azure Caribbean Sea. Relax in the hammock on your veranda, framed by mango trees and coconut palms from where you can see hummingbirds buzzing and fishermen hauling in their nets.
Unspoiled tropical paradise
Explore the surrounding natural beauty on a scenic boat tour, bird watching trip or activity in search of wildlife. Admire the gurgling waterfalls in the rainforest or book a diving excursion and get to know the rich marine life. Close your eyes and surrender to soothing bird sounds and listen to only the murmur of the ocean during a wonderful body massage. The warm, personalized service, strong focus on sustainability and back-to-nature experience make for an authentic Caribbean stay in a pristine tropical paradise. Where the world can't find you....
