Just spent 2 weeks at Tropikist on my first visit to the Caribbean! My room was basic but clean and had everything I needed including a wonderful sea view. I chose Tropikist because it only has 54 rooms and I don't particularly like larger establishments and from my perspective this was a good choice for me as I was able to feel relaxed in my ...

When I decided to take my family on vacation, i looked at all the options available, we decided on Tropikist as it was 1) located a few mins away from Trinidad and 2) we did not have to get passports and visas..I called the hotel and spoke to sam (whom I later found out was the hotel's manager) he was very helpful and I said to him "first ...

Drugs, Rude and no drinks!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/02/09
I'v visited this hotel before and loved it, perfect location, friendly staff, nice clean rooms and good food.
I was shocked on my second time to find guest smoking drugs at bar and bar the pool. Bar closed at 10pm and not 10:30pm like they said and they kept running out of drinks. Found hair in my food and the staff was rude.
It is such a shame as the Hotel is clean, good location and great value but bad management
I am a regular customer and i always want to come back.The setting is magnificent.Like all Hotels there may be minor problems but who is going on a vacation to moan i mean really!!!The staff is the most friendliest people you will ever meet once you give them a chance ,Front Desk ,shivanne, sammy ,at the bar sacha ...The food is very tasty and ...

Ok..lets begin..location....excellent !! you cant fault them, the hotel is on excellent location, loved it..the room was nice, we was in a standard room (room 87) pretty spacious, very sparsily decorated, but ok, we only used it to sleep. The balcony has a nice view of the grounds and the ocean..the washroom needs to be properly vented. The staff ...
