The guest house is set up like a B & B. You can go on a meal plan which will include your dinner for a modest sum. If you have ever wondered what it is like to be a monk or a nun in an under-developed country, and you are Catholic, and British, then this is the place for you.... More

We were met on arrival at Pax with a glass of fruit punch and a command to relax. We had an ensuite room for our first night there, which was large, comfortable and had both air conditioning and a fan. A pre-dinner rum cocktail was delivered to our room, before the three-course meal was served out on the terrace. We... More

My wife and I spent 4 nights at Pax in Jan. 2012. I had previously stayed there years ago when I was with a group of entomologists surveying termites in Trinidad...and wanted to share the "little piece of heaven" there at Pax with my wife. Gerard and Oda made us feel like we were with family at home...and always had... More

My wife and I spent two nights here on the recommendation of the Yerette Humming Bird Centre, The Guest House is the old monks visitor guest house and has a fantastic location overlooking the central plain and the nearby mountains. It is a minute's walk to the monastery at St Benedict's which in itself feels like a church that still... More

I stayed at Pax in early December with my husband, as the first stop on a birdwatching package tour of Trinidad and Tobago organised by Banwari Experience. We were welcomed in a very friendly and helpful manner and were given an en suite room on the first floor. It was clean and comfortable with functional but rustic furniture, we loved... More

The hospitality here is wonderful! Gerard and Oda were a charm and made us feel right at home! Submerged in nature, but minutes from the city! Highly recommended and hope to go back soon!

This is a nice friendly place to stay. We had dinners & breakfasts, they were excellent. Sometimes you can eat out on the deck. There is a hiking trail from the top of Mt St Benedict where you can see forest birds. Good location for other birding activities. Rooms on the lowest floor with ensuite baths were a bit musty,...

This peaceful oasis was just what my family (two daughters aged 13 and 15, my partner and I) were looking for. Peaceful, with a lovely hiking trail just out back of the premises. Quality food and gentle hosts. Simple but adequate sleeping accommodations. An excellent set of books on birding as well as a lovely perch from which to observe... More

Loved the Pax - quiet, historic, great food, and lovely service. Try the hikes out into the rainforforest, walk up to the monastery church for morning or evening prayers, spend some time reflective time. We could all use a little more Pax in our lives. Thanks especially to Colette and Jemma.
