Caribbean Tourist Villa

Port of Spain


This well-worn place on a quiet street has lots of balconies and a small pool. The rooms (with fridge) are unexceptional but acceptable, and are all you’ll need for a budget bolt-hole. The location, in easy distance from both downtown and Ariapita Ave/Queen's Park Savannah, is great for Carnival.
