Do do do! - Grace. Date of travel: Nov 2008
I've just come back from the Grafton Beach Hotel and we have already booked again! This is the place to go! You have a pool bar and a normal reception area bar. A buffet restaurant where a little humming bird sat on my orange juice glass and drank some of it. So beautiful. There is also a fish restaurant above the pool, small but outstanding food. The rooms are lovely, fairly basic but immaculate. Great scenery. just a few steps down there is a beach and that is all inclusive as well as your hotel. it is a must do, so please take my advice and go and book!

Richard Ward. Date of travel: Dec 2005
Family Size: 4 (2 adults & 2 children, 12 & 10). Cost: All-Inclusive, 1 room, £4,200 (excluding flights), for 2 weeks in December 2005 (not over Christmas day). Hotel Overview - The hotel feels like it is 'just' about trying to get away with offering the minimum. There is no feeling to the place, the staff are robots. One old bald man serving in the oceanview restaurant quite grumpy/unhelpful. Food is quite uneatable, much of the time (canteen food), not what you expect at a hotel charging what they charge. Beach OK, not too busy, but rough breakers (forget watersports, even though they promote them). We would never want to go back to the Graffton Beach. Room - OceanView; Although with two King size beds, the room is not large enough for more than two people, to live in, there is not enough wardrobe/draw space. The rooms are kept clean and the air-con works well. Do not pay more for the garden rooms (not worth it). Bathroom clean and functional. Food - This is only the 2nd time we have gone 'all-inclusive', last time at Almond Beach Villageon Barbados, Dec 2004 (good, much higher level of service/food quality etc). The food was quite terrible 99% of the time. Canteen food & service; every meal became a chore, not a pleasure. They do a waitress type service some days, but staff are poorly trained. The food was the worst part of this hotel. We eat out a number of times, nice restaurants locally (not over priced). Drink - As expected with all-Inclusive most drinks were watered down; when the bottle had a 'yellow dot' on it meant it had been 'dealt with'. So look for bottles behind the bar that are not yellow dotted. Even though drinks are included in AI. I always fancy a bottle of wine, the list has a terrible selection and charges around £45 for a bottle of cheap £5-6 (off-licence price UK). So I did not partake (nore did anyone else the 2 weeks we were there). Other restaurants on Tobago charge approx' UK restaurant prices for bottle. Entertainment/Sports - One of the reasons we chose an AI was the entertainment (to keep kids happy, so they can use the hotel facliites while we enjoyed a leisurely dinner). Kids Sports room is OK, but the evening 'live' enterainment is dull. Forget watersports, the sea is too rough that side of the island. Sadly it was one of the main reasons why we chose this hotel (we do alot of watersports as a hobby in UK etc... Canoeing, sailing etc). You have to go out so deep to get away from the white water breaker, then its still never calm. Tour Operator: Golden Caribbean
