ive just returned from the rex turtle beach on tuesday 10th june 2003, and thought the location was brilliant , the beach was lovely and clean, the swimming pool was tiny, but when you have the beach on the door step it doesnt matter.
we went there on a room only basis, and im glad we did as the food in the hotel wasnt up too much at all, we went to some lovely restaurants just down the road from the rex.
we did have breakfasts and they were charing 95.00tt for a full english and 85.00 for a carribbean breakfast, which over 2 weeks is a lot of money, especially as they were buffet style meals, so if you only had cereal and toast it was the same price !!! expensive.
the waitresses were a bit offish at times and could of been a bit more pleasant.
the local trips you can go on are excellent, we were lucky enough to see dolphins on our fishing trip which we took with woody ( bobby ).
and to see the leather back turtles coming up on the beach to lay their eggs is a sight to see, we say two, one at night and one during the day, and on our last morning there we actually got to see baby turtles being hatched !!!!
in total the holiday was lovely and we would go back there again, not for the hotel its self but for the beach and the location.
its an idea place to relax and chill, which we did, and get a nice sun tan, and swim in the carribbean sea...............

Thanks Sharon for your reveiw. I am staying at the rex in december on a room only basis and am interested to know which local restraunts you visited- the food at the rex does appear very expensive, thanks for warning us. Regards nora
