Welcome to Mt. Plasir Estate Hotel
Set on the edge of Grande Riviere Bay where rainforest, river and sea meet, Mt. Plaisir Estate Hotel is a beachfront, luxury eco-retreat on Trinidad’s wild north coast. Surrounded by lush tropical landscapes and direct access to one of the island’s most dramatic shorelines, the hotel offers a relaxed coastal stay shaped by nature.
Guests can unwind in ocean-facing rooms, enjoy locally inspired dining, and take in the rhythm of the Atlantic just steps away from their accommodation. The surrounding area offers access to hiking trails, river experiences and birdwatching, while the beach itself is world-renowned as one of the most important nesting sites for leatherback turtles.
A special highlight for nature enthusiasts is the opportunity to visit the nearby Pawi Lodge conservation area, managed by the hotel. This area offers exclusive viewing of the critically endangered Trinidad Piping-guan, locally known as the Pawi, allowing guests a rare glimpse of this remarkable bird in its natural habitat.
The location in Grande Riviere, near Toco, is particularly special due to its remote, rugged beauty and the convergence of dense rainforest, winding rivers, and the expansive Atlantic Ocean. This remote setting on Trinidad’s northeastern coast offers a true escape from the bustling city, providing a serene environment where the rhythms of nature dictate the pace of life.
The property also has a close connection with the local community. Members of the Mt. Plaisir Estate Hotel community capitalize on the abundance of local resources, engaging in traditional activities such as chocolate making through the Grande Riviere Chocolate Company, as well as producing bush rum and homemade wines, offering guests a genuine taste of local culture.
Mt. Plaisir Estate Hotel features 21 comfortable, laid-back rooms designed to complement its natural beachfront setting. Many rooms offer ocean views, allowing guests to wake to the sound of waves and the Atlantic coastline just beyond their doorstep. Interiors are simple, functional and relaxed, reflecting the hotel’s eco-retreat character rather than formal luxury.
Blending coastal simplicity with nature immersion, Mt. Plaisir Estate Hotel offers a stay that is deeply connected to Grande Riviere’s unique ecosystem and community.
