Fodor's Expert Review Blue Waters Inn

A tropical rain forest creeps up behind this eco-friendly hotel, which sits on sheltered, turquoise Batteaux Bay; it's just east of Speyside and a 90-minute drive from Scarborough. The sprawling hotel makes every effort to make guests feel at home. One- and two-bedroom apartments are directly on the white-sand beach. The resort caters primarily to divers and bird-watchers, but it's also a fine base for exploring Tobago's north coast. The restaurant serves the freshest of fish, and barbecue dinners are cooked at the pool bar.
