Updated Union Island accommodation guidance
Union Island is back and ready to welcome guests after Hurricane Beryl, with a fully reopened airport, repaired homes and beaches and attractions back to normal. Clifton, Kite Beach and the nearby beach areas are the most practical bases for restaurants, shops, transport, kitesurfing, Tobago Cays trips and local services.
Many small restaurants have reopened, and new places to eat have joined them. Book your accommodation and flight or ferry connection ahead, then let your host know your arrival time so they can help arrange your stay.

Choosing the right area
Clifton
Clifton is the easiest area to stay on Union Island, especially for restaurants, shops, taxis, the harbor, airport access, boat trips and everyday services.
Ashton
Ashton is Union Island’s second town, with local shops and homes away from the busier harbor area in Clifton.
Ashton is located next to one of the kitesurfing spots, but that spot is only accessible by boat. It is also a little further away and can feel a bit far if you plan on coming mainly to kitesurf every day.
Kite Beach and quiet beach stays
Kite Beach is best for kitesurfing guests and fast access to the water. Chatham Bay, Big Sand and other beach areas are better for slower days, views and quiet beach time.
