Mt Plaisir Estate is the only true Beach Hotel in Trinidad. Located on Grande Riviere Bay along the Caribbean North East Coast it hosts one of the largest colonies of the endangered leatherback turtles, the biggest sea turtles that every year nest here by the thousands between March to August. Mt Plaisir is an excellent base for forest hiking into the majestic Rain Forest. There is an excellent restaurant on the resort: Ylang-Ylang that offers Caribbean and Italian dishes. more » « less

From the first meeting with owner Pierro a wild ride in his pick up through villages almost swallowed by the vegatation surrounding them and along the glorious coast accompanied by some great music stopping just to sample some shark and bake and extreemly naughty sugar cake cooked at the roadside by a lovely lady we knew we were in for... more

It was really romantic with... more

One of my favorite places. This is NOT a five star hotel . It is an old horse stable. The stables were turned in to the rooms. No A/C just fans. Very small rooms. But you will not want to do more than sleep in the rooms. Most rooms have a cute patio which is where you will be when... more

We have visited here before this was our 4th stay over a seven year period, it was clear to see that management had not upgraded or looked after the rooms to keep them in that eco-loving/accomodation as they promise it to be. the toilet was in great need of a new seat it was broken and dirtyfalling off!!!!!!!!!!!!! we had... more

The Lonely Planet mentions that Mt Plaisir is arguably the nicest place to stay on Trinidad. The road towards Grand Riviere is definitely lovely, so is Grand Riviere. The nature is fantastic (Pawi's / Leatherback turtles). The Hotel is very disappointing. Rooms are very basic, and rather dirty (dusty and full with insects). The lines and mosquito nets were not... more

Mt. Plaisir is a wonderful rustic hotel, almost at the end of the road in Northeastern Trinidad. We wanted a quiet holiday away from crowds and found there few people at this time of year. The hotel staff and all people in general we found to be very friendly and warm. The food was excellent, a mix of local continental... more

In my opinion if you travel with children as we did we rate this place first class. The rooms are simple but what a location , you step out of your room and you are on a such a beautiful beach where you can have kids playing and enjoying the beautiful environment. The staff is so accommodating that you think... more

Secluded and lovely. Our children enjoyed the beach right in front of the hotel every day of our 5-day stay. The host and staff are very friendly and try hard to meet your needs. The restaurant serves excellent food, but the service hours are limited. The rooms are equipped with mosquito nets, but we still got bitten by them terribly.... more
