Tobago Vacation Rental villa: Lowlands

I stayed at Villa Sans-Souci in Oct 08 and enjoyed my stay. The Villa is spacious and well situated with its pool and jacuzzi overlooking the 12th Fairway of Tobago Plantations Golf Beach & SPA Resort. The sunsets are magnificent and the island is green and lush.

The villa is well maintained. The hotel is closed for renovations but that is understandable as it is on the sea coast. However to be at Villa Sans-Souci it is recommended to rent a car and there are several restaurants to enjoy. Villa Sans-Souci is situated in the only gated resort on the island. You feel safe.

The golf club, its restaurants and bars are open and functioning as normal. One can walk the fairways and enjoy the fauna, flora and wildlife of the resort.

I would recommend Villa Sans-Souci and the island of Tobago. For a Caribbean Villa Holiday it is honest in its pricing for the quality offered.

We had a wonderful vaccation at the Villa and on Tobago overall. The only thing was that Hilton Resort was closed for renewal. This made the place rather deserted with no possibillitys to have a near place to eat and drink in the evnigs.

We have just had a pleasant stay at the villa. It is very spacious, garden/pool areas are lovely and has a great view over the 12th hole. Close to shops, the gorgeous Pigeon Point, lots of eating places, but a car is essential.
In most instances the description provided is correct, although the hotel is not the Hilton now and it is closed for a lengthy refurbishment, so don't go there expecting to use the hotel's facilities as we were. The BBQ was broken by previous occupants and had not been replaced and 2 of the air-con units were not working. Although the maid comes in to clean (not daily) kitchen/bathrooms and change beds, I felt that the villa needed a team of cleaners to bring it up to the cleanliness standards | would expect. It was really very grubby in places and was never dusted or polished during our stay. I also think it is need of a paint job inside and bathroom/kitchen refurbishment. We found the lounge furniture very uncomfortable and the beds are rock-hard.
Building work being done next door.
I would disagree that it is suitable for the infirm. Yes, it's all on one floor, but the bathrooms would be completely unsuitable for those with mobility problems.
A welcome pack should be provided. I don't think you should be expected to do basic shopping after a long haul flight when you arrive at night in an unfamiliar place.
My husband is a golfer. In his opinion the condition of the course has gone downhill over the last six years, but still provides millionaire's golf which he considered good value for money at £35 per round including a cart. This cost is cheaper than in 2002. In my opinion and experience this is not a 'luxury' villa, but would not take much to make it so.
