Caribbean Beach Resort

Hi Cat,

Old Port Royale (OPR), also called Center Towne, is the main activities area with Market Street (food court), Shutters (sit-down restaurant), Calypso Trading Post and Straw Market (shops), Lobby Concierge, Goombay Games (arcade), large pool (Spanish fort-themed), water slide, wading pool, and whirlpool. Also here is the Barefoot Bay Boat Yard and Bike Works (bicycle and boat rentals), bus stop, and parking area. The walk between OPR and your room is pleasant, but can be long: the most distant guest rooms are up to a 15 minute walk away.

If distance from OPR is important to you consider reserving a Preferred Building - Trinidad North or Martinique. Be sure to refer to the resort map when making reservations. The closest buildings to OPR are in Martinique (in order of closeness: buildings 26, 25, and 24) followed by Trinidad North (buildings 31, 32, and 33).

The farthest buildings are in parts of Trinidad South (buildings 37-39) and Barbados (buildings 11 and 16).

The villages of Aruba and Jamaica are across the lake from OPR; some buildings (44-46 and 51-53) in those villages are reasonably close.

If you wish, you can drive from your room to OPR, or use the internal bus.

Here is a map of the resort to give you a better idea;

Hi,

we stayed there last year in Jamaica, which is only a 2 minute stroll across the lake to the main pool and dining/shops.

We enjoyed the walk in the mornings for breakfast, and it was quiet, even with the cheerleaders dance competition going on.

Lake view is nice, but if you need to pay more save your money, whatever room you get 20 paces and you can see the lake.
