Our Story
Welcome to Bananaquit—where island life slows, and the simple things come alive.
Since 2000, this family-owned retreat has grown from a simple dream into a quiet hideaway—tucked just beyond the buzz, yet never far from the sea.
The garden greets you at your door. Balconies open to soft breezes. Mornings begin with coffee, birdsong, and the scent of salt in the air.
Named after the small, lively bananaquit—the island’s curious honey seeker—you’ll often find them flitting through the trees, sometimes joining you at breakfast.
Here, you’re free to move at your own pace. To explore. To unwind. To return.

Sustainability is part of our story too. As one of the first Green Key certified hotels in the English-speaking Caribbean, we’re committed to preserving the island we call home.
A place shaped by family, nature, and time—
your little island hideaway..

Always a great choice! Very clean, secure and centrally located (can walk to shops/restaurants/beach & airport) Addition of wine bar on premises…added bonus. First choice when visiting Tobago. Many thanks.

This is the second time I’ve stayed at Bananaquit and it is just getting better! The rooms are spotless.
