Maracas Bay Hotel

Frommer's Review

If you'd like to sightsee in Trinidad and also be on the beach, Maracas Bay Hotel is a decent choice. It's the only beachfront hotel in all of Trinidad, and even here, you'll have to walk across the coastal road to reach the sands. Owned and operated by a local family, it's nestled in a valley on sloping terrain across the road from Maracas Bay. It's only 11km (6 3/4 miles) north of Port-of-Spain, but dense traffic and a winding road mean at least a 45-minute drive from the commercial center of the capital. There's a bar/lounge accented with Hindu art and an unpretentious dining room. Bedrooms contain simple furnishings, white-and-blue walls, and terra-cotta tile floors. Each unit has two queen-size beds and a tiled bathroom with a tub/shower combination. The beach, a wide strip of white sand bordered by palm trees, is a lovely oasis from the bustle of Port-of-Spain. The inn provides chaises and beach umbrellas for its guests, though nobody will be taking your drink order on the sands.
