Decided at the last minute to spend a night at this hotel and chose one of the ocean view rooms. My wife and I arrived at the check in time but had to wait an hour before the room was available. The receptionist was friendly but you expect if there is a delay like this something extra would be offered.... More

My husband made arrangements to stay at a another resort in the area but typical they messed up our booking. We discovered this place right next door (the irony), our stay was exceptional. The staff were warm and friendly and very, very, accommodating. I will recommend this place to anyone anytime...my husband and I will definitely be returning :)

I visited Playa a couple weeks ago. I was greeted with warm kindness from the security on duty till the moment we left. The view was simply breath taking, food was excellent with variety and their rates were reasonable. I must comment on the various number of activities available to engage in from their swimming pools, to their hammocks, jacuzzi... More

My first impression at Playa de Este was not good. I visited with my husband and baby, so naturally we had a lot of luggage - mainly baby stuff. After checking in, we asked one of the hotel staff if we could get some help taking the bags to our room, she grumbled under her breath that we should make... More

I stayed at the resort in early March. I took my mom there for her 50th birthday. When I called to make reservations the person on the phone said that a deposit of half the price must be paid. She was helpful in giving me the resort's account number to make the deposit. That went smoothly and I called back... More

One of the best features about this resort is the friendliness of the staff and their willingness to serve. The location is wonderful for those interested in relaxation and fresh sea breeze. Unfortunately, the beach was rough and full of seaweeds on this occasion. However the grounds of the resort are extensive and well kept. The hammocks are a great... More

Stayed at Playa de Este on 31 March 2013, started off with high expectations based on feedback from friends and the initial view of the property. The location and layout was very inviting. It started going down hill from there, the room was tiny and the bathroom smaller still. The doors and fittings are very cheap and it was disgusting... More

My family and I recently stayed at this resort after reading much favorable reviews, however we were very disappointed. We payed for an ocean view room, and was presented with a room with a big coconut tree to the front. In addition to this we found that the rooms were very small. The bed was very uncomfortable, there were just... More

Was surprised by my boyfriend with a two night stay and could not have been more surprised. As a Canadian of Trini descent I had no idea that resorts like this existed in Trinidad.
