Tucked along a quiet road on Trinidad’s east coast, the small, two-and-a-half-pearl Salybia Nature Resort & Spa sits on a rocky beach with lovely Saline Bay views. While the 21 rooms are outdated, they all offer ocean view balconies, air-conditioning, and a good amount of space. Along with a clean pool, full-service spa, and a tropical-themed restaurant, the hotel ticks most of the expected boxes for a solid waterfront hotel. However, the rocky, unswimmable beach, uncomfortable beds, dated decor, and a general inattentiveness to detail overshadows many of the positives.
