Staycation at Acajou Hotel, Grand Riviere - Trinidad

In this segment of my adventures, DRE TV journeys to the northeastern side of Trinidad to visit the turtle village of Grand Riviere. We spent one night at the famous Acajou Hotel, and explored the Grand Riviere Beach which is popular for leather back turtle nesting. We lounged in the hammocks, and enjoyed the tasty delicacies offered at the local Restaurant. Nature was present in every way, and we had the privilege to be a part of it with the feeling of safety at the hotel.

Thank you for spotlighting Grand Riviere. It takes me back to going there with my family as a child.

A man who prayers before meals is a keeper.

[@maureengittens4687]

Thank you so much its people like you who helps us to appreciate what we have here, keep up the work.

[@Lequay]

And ppl have the nerve to say that trinidad has nothing, we hv so many beautiful places!

[@GoldSkye]

Paradise.

[@Ctmorgans]

It’s nothing to them because this is all they know, it becomes their normal. Our country is amazingly beautiful, it’s sad that sometimes after only traveling and experiencing somewhere else you start to appreciate what you have.

[@candid0111]

We do. Now a lot of people crying to come back home.

[@deedee8043]

That because the main focus is promoting tourism for carnival and Tobago no encouragement or intrest in promote tourism outside of carnival in Trinidad they hide all these beautiful places from the public its a shame

[@keishayoung5750]

This is beautiful always wanted to go there...favorite part is grace before meals yes recognize God in all we do...May Jehovah bless you in all your endeavors

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Wanted to try this later this year, nice one

[@DRETV_TT]

Yes, it’s a nice place. Be mindful of turtle season as it’s really booked up, and you would require a permit to visit the beach.

[@TrinbagoVibes]

@@DRETV_TT thanks for the feedback on the turtles...Not surprised it’s booked out based on your video... keep up the nice work

[@jdchinee5118]

I love the super soaker, looking forward to going there

There are a good few in Trinidad. Hacienda Jacana is also a favorite.

[@staellie7089]

Loved it. Didn’t know about any of those places In Trinidad. Loved the aerial and zoom in views. Very peaceful, romantic, and really inspiring. Wish the cottages had a little stove though. 😝 lol.

Good coverage on the hotel and Grande Revere. How was the food?

Food was great!

Waterfall at the beginning❤

[@BlackMarkTwain]

Wta was that noise in the night shot???

[@commess1]

Beautiful. Are the cottages all the same or can they accommodate larger families?

[@DRETV_TT]

They are somewhat the same. Large families usually rent out multiple cottages at once when visiting the hotel.

[@commess1]

Thanks. I notice you visited the beach but what of the river itself, were you able to visit that? Are persons able to bath in both both river and beach?

[@DRETV_TT]

@@commess1 yep. You are free to visit the beach and the river.

So serious question did yall see any spiders just walking around 😐

Trinidad the country, the land, itself is nice.. it's the way the people here have treated it who turned it into a labasse and make it ugly and discouraging to adventure into

Nah❕ bachelor Fridge, basic furniture and de hammock.... 2 star accommodations. Maybe if it was usd $50 to 75 i would visit. They need to do better with that price. 🥴😑
