 | Tortola The Tamarind Club Hotel Reviews | 1 - 1 of 1 |  |
When I first arrived at the Tamarind Club, after the kamikaze taxi ride from hell, I had to drag my luggage up a steep flight of stairs and then check in at the pool bar, since it was late & the desk was closed. I was tired, bug-bitten, sweaty & grumpy, and my first impression was that the room was kind of shabby & would just make do for one night. (Of course it was their smallest & cheapest garden room.)
A shower improved my mood drastically, and then the whole family thing began to unfold for me. By the time I left, I'd made friends and felt sad to go!
A couple from Chicago bought the hotel about 4 years ago, so now they run it with the help of their kids, who tend bar, help with luggage, cook, clean, etc. The minute you join them at the pool bar for your complimentary rum punch, the whole world seems just a little brighter. Warmth & camaraderie are the "outstanding characteristics" here, and the location close to the airport makes it an excellent value for commuting thru Tortola.
Not to mention that the butternut squash soup was superb!
