ABOUT THIS PROPERTY
Say "Hi!" to Licorish, a newly refurbished beach-house located two doors up from historic Fort Bennett point, overlooking beautiful Stonehaven Bay.
"Open Sesame" and the giant-sized gate slides over to reveal a thoughtfully put together escape from today's world, where any sort of fanciness or overindulgence has deliberately been shunned. The simplicity of furnishings is there to soothe, for busyness to be overcome. From the shabby chic feel of the uncluttered interior, you emerge, readied to behold Nature's spectacular theater, complete with birdsong, tropical sunsets and warm breezes.
Licorish has direct beach access to a little sheltered cove which is a great spot for snorkeling. In the surrounding area, you can enjoy walks along Grafton Beach, delicious food at some of Tobago’s top restaurants like the Seahorse Inn and the Fish Pot, or a sunset cocktail at Waves beach bar. All in all, you’ll feel like you’ve arrived at your very own slice of tropical paradise.

Natalie
Licorish by the Sea is a little piece of heaven on earth & probably the best Airbnb we have ever stayed in. Terrace is amazing! The view outstanding. The property was very spacious with large open living area as well as 3 double bedrooms, all very comfortable with en suite bathrooms attached to all 3. The area is quiet but has 2 good restaurants less than 10 minute walk away. The Sea Horse being the best for us, but also Waves and about another 10 minutes walk away The Fish Pot. A bar called Leggers with a great view is opposite The Fish pot, which also does bar food and if you call ahead they will accommodate more choice. Next to the Fishpot was a small convenience store, cashpoint and Pizza takeaway place. Our host sorted a rental car for us which allowed us to venture further afield, welll worth doing. Buccoo is 5 minutes drive away but too far to walk. Anchor beach bar was walkable, about 25 mins. Our host took us grocery shopping for a big shop. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again!

This is a beautiful villa. Very quiet, peaceful and relaxing. I liked the location; once I got my bearings I found I was close to beautiful beaches, grocery stores, and the Fort. Since my walking is compromised, I wasn’t able to use the stairs to the cove but those who did enjoyed playing in the clear tide pools. We used the pool a lot to cool off. The staff was always very responsive and minor repairs were made as soon as I brought them to Gillian’s attention. This villa will be my first choice if I return to Tobago.

A truly beautiful place to stay in one of the best locations in Tobago. We had an amazing stay with family, just the right size with everything clean and comfortable. Lots of fruit trees in the front yard, breathtaking views from the back deck with a pristine plunge pool, steps down to your own little swimming cove, short drive to many of the best beaches and restaurants, you can't ask for more.
Nlanda
Gracious host and beautiful property. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to family and friends.

Villa Licorish is peaceful and breathing. Can't wait to return! The villa was pristine and super comfortable, we loved it!
Tamara
We had a wonderful stay at Licorish by the Sea. The home was even more beautiful than the photos. Kitchen was perfect for cooking dinner each night and the host was extremely accommodating providing a crib for my young daughter. We would absolutely return to this property!
Saheeda
There are not enough words to describe how beautiful and serene that this Airbnb is. If you are looking for a relaxing getaway, this will check all the boxes! The pictures don’t do the actual beauty any justice. The views are breathtaking! There is a little private Cove on the property, perfect for daily reflection, and there is a beautiful beach a short walk around the corner! There’s a restaurant on the beach, which had delicious food and drinks. Everything was above and beyond what was expected! A true hidden gem and can’t wait to return to my new favorite spot in Tobago! 🫶🏽
Veronika
A lovely place! Really enjoyed it. The bedrooms and outside area are beautiful. Bring snorkelling gear: there’s a short walk down the stairs to a private area for swimming/snorkelling. Would certainly rent again!
Hermione - London, United Kingdom
Such a beautiful house in a stunning location. Added bonus of steps down to a private beach, and Gillian went out of her way to arrange some groceries for us. Would definitely return :)
Lilian - Montogomery, Texas, USA
We had a really nice weekend and will definitely come back.
Maise
The photos of this villa do not do it justice at all! It is absolutely stunning. I’ve been to Tobago many times and would go back to this villa in a heartbeat.
Steve
Fantastic place, the pictures don’t do the view in person justice. Quiet, peaceful, clean. We will definitely be back!
Rachel
Fabulous private villa, well configured and equipped with beautiful views and easy access to the cove for snorkeling - fish and crabs to see there and we also found a baby Hawksbill turtle one day! SOS Tobago advised us to save him and we met the warden on Turtle Beach to release with some other rescued babies that evening!
The plunge pool was perfect for a cool down dip and big enough for the kids to mess about in too. Loved spending relaxing time on the spacious veranda, a few humming birds visited the feeder. Black Rock itself is ok, nice beach and few eating options, felt safe enough walking from the villa. Seahorse was excellent, Waves inconsistent but ok, convenient and well located.
North of the island is beautiful so would definitely recommend taking time to explore up to Charlottesville etc.
Service requests like cleaning and shopping were responded to quickly and efficiently and Gillian was very helpful during our stay. Would recommend!
Julie
The accommodation and the view/setting were next to none. It is the most beautiful and comfortable place any of our party had ever stayed in. The amenities were all top class, and the view was breathtaking. We would all return in a heartbeat.
Ann
If you are going to Tobago, if you want a perfect vacation, if you are looking for something special, if you need to get away from the madness, look no further.
It is also perfect place for a family vacation. It has everything for a comfortable and unforgettable stay. The private beach is really nice. Licorish is what it says it is.
The review of this stay is in the name Licorish. It is sweet with distinct taste.
Hilary
Villa Liquorish is a true gem! The villa is spacious, very clean and well equipped. The view is truly amazing and the joy of going down your own steps to the sea was a real treat. We had a fabulous holiday and would highly recommend.
Monica - St. Louis, Missouri, USA
Gillian's place was peaceful and comfortable. It felt like home and the property staff were so friendly and helpful. The view was breathtaking. If I find myself in Tobago on a group trip again, I'd definitely choose licorish by the sea again.
Megan - McLean, Virginia, USA
From the moment we arrived, the breathtaking views exceeded our expectations, and the accommodations were just as described - cozy, clean, inviting, and with views of colorful water. The hosts were incredibly hospitable and flexible. The space and location helped us create unforgettable memories. Whether we were enjoying meals outside on the balcony with a view, relaxing in the pool, or walking around the neighborhood or to the beach, every moment felt magical for our family. The kids especially loved meeting the fishermen each morning. We can't wait to return to this retreat.
Joanne
Gillian’s place is absolutely incredible - the pictures don’t do it justice at all. The location is perfect for exploring with a couple of lovely restaurants within a 10-15 minute walk for the evenings. It was a slice of heaven and I would recommend it to anyone!
Alberto - Anacortes, Washington, USA
Beautiful house where we spent very pleasant moments, the host was very kind and I hope to return soon to enjoy this beautiful house.
