We loved the staff! They were amazing. Te Nuts is not for everyone. Very uniquely set right on Chatham bay and remote and quiet. We hiked up and out to Clifton and to Ashton both hikes provided panoramic vista of unsurpassed beauty But it’s not a place for people who want lots of nightlife it is truest “old” Caribbean and loved it

Very relaxing stay on secluded peace of beach in beautiful bay of Chatham Bay. Arrived by water taxi (easiest way to reach resort). Nice clean room with gorgeous view. Comfortable bar area and infinity pool. Good selections of drinks and wines. We had delicious lobster dinner. Staff polite. Very comfy and good sized bed. Would love to be back one day.

We had an excellent stay and wish we could have stayed longer. The location is amazing and the resort is perfect. All staff are friendly and the service is good. I would highly recommend it as a place to disconnect and relax for a few days.

Location scenery beautiful and has potential to be a good resort. However, access to the resort, which is very isolated, is bad and not safe to travel to resort after dark. The access problems are not made clear to guests before arrival. This caused us to have to stay in another hotel in Clifton on the first night, even though we had already paid for the Chatham Bay accommodation, doubling our cost. Food services are poor to mediocre.

Bare in mind there is an an additional 300EC Dollars (round trip) for crossing and getting to Chatham Bay by sea taxi. This is not mentioned anywhere on the website and the resort does not provide the service!

This hotel is run down and very badly managed. It is neither a club nor a resort and has only three completed cottages. It looks wonderful from a distance and someone has spent a lot money designing and building it, most of which has been wasted because of the total lack of maintenance. The wooden gangway over the beach and the deck around the swimming pool were rotten in places, the sunshades and sunbeds broken and cushions torn. The infinity pool was not working properly although we were told that it was. We were offered no trips, or sports facilities other than two kayaks and there were no reference books for the wonderful bird and marine life. The bar was poorly stocked with spasmodic service. The restaurant menu was limited. Our waiters were either a young girl who could not remember our orders or a Venezuelan who spoke no English. Once, when the young waitress dropped some food on the way to our table she picked it up with her fingers and put it back on the plate. The bedroom was comfortable but the mosquito nets torn and useless. There was no shampoo in the shower room for the first night. The free transfer was by a small open fisherman’s boat which meant that our luggage got wet. The road was impassable because both the hotel jeeps were out of service.

A LONG way to go to become a resort!
"transfer" was not ready for us in town. Waited more than half an hour for a rickety old work truck. Had to jump into the back by stepping on the wheel and held on for dear life as we bumped down a "road" that was basically just boulders. VERY DANGEROUS. Then told to pay for our "taxi" ourselves. A water transfer was supposed to be available which would make the arrival MUCH better. Very quickly learned that unfortunately, they just DON'T know service! The bartender, King, was it's only saving grace- but he was only there for 1 of our 3 days, so we had no access to our "all-inclusive" drinks for 2/3 of our time there, even though pre-paid. The manager was absolutely apathetic and although the only guests of the THREE CABIN location, we seemed to be a giant inconvenience. They have only one tiny menu on offer and they ran out of all but one appetizer by day 2. Also, they could not even poach an egg for breakfast. DO NOT pay for the all-inclusive it is not worth it. There was a fantastic bar down the beach that was incredible, friendly, and offered up their own cooked dinner, for free! Although the location and buildings are beautiful, there are not many other positives. Rooms had cobwebs, pool was unclean, and the food got old real fast. It is a place with potential but at present, they don't seem concerned with serving guests or providing the best experience. Bottom line- if you pay only for the room, you might be content enough, but don't expect much else.

Beautiful rooms, poor service
The rooms were absolutely beautiful and very comfortable. The rooms seemed very well kept and seem to have been upgraded as they are very modern. The shower is absolutely amazing especially after a long day soaking in the sun. The views from the cabins were amazing and sunsets even more so. What was disappointing was the fact that it’s very far from everything and basically inaccessible by any means other than boat. This information was not relayed to us and was quite an unpleasant surprise. The beach was also not great and water was full of rocks and seaweed. I didn’t take a swim as it was very unappealing. The quality of the food was also poor and the menu variety even more so. If one was to stay all inclusive for a week, by the 4th day you would have had everything on the menu. The WiFi that was provided had very low signal and this was an inconvenience seeing as there was no form of entertainment (tv/radio) available in the rooms. It took me 2 hrs to watch a 1 hr tv show on Netflix with the WiFi provided. I believe that the hotel has great potential but the management is very poor. I would only recommend this hotel to persons looking for something remote and quiet as not to be bothered by others or by the use of technology.

Love it.
Tenuta Chatham bay resort. If you can visit this 6 star private exclusive hotel. Please try to !! Not only are the staff 110%, Lisa was the best. Helpful, friendly and full of information. My bartender was not only great for conversation but also great all around . The beach is one you can enjoy to yourself. This hotel is so private that you will enjoy the great rooms, their open concept and the view of the water. Clear blue Caribbean see. I just so happen to be the only guest at the time, so I felt very private in the hotel. 6 stars for everything. Visit Tenuate chatham bay resort hidden and private, located on the beautiful island of Union.

Stayed at this lovely resort with my daughter Easter weekend 2018. This place is paradise, absolutely gorgeous beach, cottage & surroundings. Very friendly and accommodating staff. The beach is not children or non swimmer friendly, very deep 4 steps in, this was the only disappointment. Must walk with a European charger for cell phone due to the electrical sockets. Proper planning is needed to ensure your flight to St. Vincent reaches in time to catch the small plane that leaves to go Union Island at 8am. since they only fly once for the day at that time. The resort is not on St. Vincent island proper but one of the islands that belong to St. Vincent & the Grenadines (15 mins flight from St. Vincent). The resort personnel knew it was my first time and sent one of their friendly staff to meet me at Union Island airport then traveled by speed boat to Chatham Bay. Lots of other islands nearby to visit during the day, so my vacation was a blast! Will definitely visit here again soon.

Nice but could be better.
The are only 3 cottages on this bay. The cottages at all oceanfront and very nice with a large wrap around porch and very clean. It was a challenge to get to the Union island ( as you need to take the cargo ferry or fly but to fly to the island will cost you) and then to the location of the hotel is on the other side of the island which you need to take a water taxi or taxi. We had to spend a night in Union island as it rained pretty heavily and no water taxi or taxi were in operation. The resort is very nice. Throughout our stay the resort ran out of certain food items or they just didn’t offer it even tho it was on the menu. The food however is very good. The beach is very beautiful however I feel they could have cleaned up the seaweed that just seemed to pile on the beach. At times we were the only ones on the beach. Not crowed at all. The staff were friendly and polite. The swimming pool and hot tub was small but I guess considered a good size for the max number of people that stays there.

Location, location, location
The room was fab, location incredible but the service was haphazard. There are only three cabins set in a remote location but they are gorgeous as is the location. Right on a secluded beach. But. Most of the dinner menu was not available, also the breakfast menu. Our shower started off so hot it was scalding. Others had no hot water. Beach umbrellas were all broken so no shade on the sun beds. The food was mediocre. We were advised to eat at the sunset cove bar and restaurant at the far end of the beach and t was brilliant. The best lobster. Amazing spare ribs. Road access involves a four wheel deep descent on an extremely precarious track which looks more like a dry river bed. The best way in is by water taxi. When we went there our water taxi told us that the sea was too choppy to land at Chatham Bay so they dropped us at Clifden. It took over an hour to get somebody to take us to Tenuta. We tried to contact them but since all communication is out of the UK this was very difficult. In summary I would say the place has enormous potential but they need to sort out the facilities, the food, the communications and the service

Fantastic Stay
The Hotel have a very loving and elegant settings straight on the beach. The location is very private and unspoiled. Exactly what we was looking for to recharge our battery and forget about stress. The staff is extremely kindly and the food is simple, fresh and well prepared. Lobster and Carpaccio was delicious....... I had a romantic dinner together with my wife and wonderful breakfast in the room and a very comfortable night on the large size bed. Cottages was absolutely new very stylish, perfect set and only few steps away from the beach. Thanks Lesia will come back soon again Steve
