A 115-square-mile island just a 25-minute flight from Port of Spain, Trinidad’s sister island, Tobago, is known as the place to recover after a rollicking time at Carnival. But there are plenty of other reasons to visit all year round, bird-watching, quiet beaches and a friendly, Old-Caribbean vibe among them. (And did we mention the Nylon Pool?) And when you get there, these are the places we recommend you stay. These are the best Tobago Hotels.

Bacolet Beach Club Hotel Find serenity at this quiet hillside boutique in Scarborough, where an Instagram-perfect infinity pool overlooks its namesake bay (which can be seen from all 20 rooms), and guests rave about the warm and welcoming staff. But the star of the show here is really the small but spectacular beach, home to a world-class beach bar and a Crusoe-style castaway vibe. This is the number one option among Tobago hotels.
