About this apartment rental
'THE GREEN ROOM"
The GREEN ROOM is the first bedroom of the 2 bed-roomed apartment " Our Place"
The unit can be booked as a one bed-roomed apartment with full use of the kitchen/lounge & 50 ft balcony. The price shown reflects this.
It has amazing views across Castara bay & the balcony is prefect for Al fresco dinning, sunsets & bird watching.
Or
During the times when we are using the second bedroom you would share the communal areas with ourselves. This has worked very well in the past with guests returning time & time again
This would be reflected in the price at the time of booking.- Please inquire as to availability.
The Green room is bright & airy. It has a large ensuite bathroom, a queen size bed (+ full mosi nets)-made in the village from local red cedar, & small personal fridge.
Large fully equipped kitchen dinner/lounge.
All rooms open out onto a 50 x 10 ft veranda.
Fully equipped kitchen with crockery & cutlery for 6, hot & cold running water, water filter fitted to cold supply so no need to buy bottled water. 4 burner gas stove, large Samsung fridge, kettle, toaster, liquidiser, grill, caffetiere etc etc.
Large dining table and chairs for alfresco dining-We have never eaten inside yet!
Large comfortable sofa for lounging and reading from which you can also see the sea.
All rooms have a very high roof allowing for good air circulation so no A/C !
All rooms have free standing fans.
Home office area with good wi-fi, perfect if you need to work remotely.
Very comfortable accommodation, after all it is where we live when we are on Tobago!
The view across the bay is the reason we built here !
We are surround by a good variety of local birds such as MotMots, Ant Shrikes & 5 varieties of hummingbirds. The vegetation is quite lush and we have mango, banana, paw paw and fresh herbs etc growing in the garden.
Carpe Diem Villa was completed in late 2007. Half timbered construction over a block ground floor. It is our house and was designed for US to live in and constructed of local materials using all local labour. The whole point of the house was to take advantage of the view of Castara Bay. It is set back and 80 feet above the Northside Road in the village of Castara, a small unspoilt fishing village on the Caribbean coast of Tobago.
The 2 Sandy beaches are safe and kept clean by the villagers. Lifeguards are on duty during the day. Come & Swim or snorkel with the Stingrays or Pull the Seine!
Walk to the local Waterfall to cool off in the heat of the day
We invest in the community & can help you organise personalised tours into the rainforest, visit waterfalls, take you fishing & then to a BBQ the catch on a secluded beach. Or tours to Nylon Pool & Buccoo reef, Sunday school, visit Little Tobago & Goat Island, Bio Luminance tours, Being with Horses, Chocolate making & so much more
The local bars are friendly with locals, expats and visitors all 'liming' together.
