for any size group in a first-class Caribbean setting

CaribPR Wire, PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad (October 23, 2013) – As one of the most contemporary business hotels in the English-speaking Caribbean islands, Hyatt Regency Trinidad provides meetings and events that are close to home, but far from ordinary.  Whether hosting a business meeting or social gathering, this premier hotel uniquely combines the best of both worlds:  first-class service from an expert team; state-of-the-art facilities of a world-class hotel; ease of doing business locally; warm, authentic Trini hospitality; and Port of Spain’s vibrant waterfront as a picture-perfect backdrop.  It should come as no surprise then that meeting planners, business groups and brides-to-be from all over the Caribbean and beyond turn to Hyatt Regency Trinidad for their most important occasions and special events.

Hyatt Regency Trinidad has hosted a number of regional conferences of all sizes thus far in 2013, including the Caribbean Trade and Investment Conference, Caribbean Sustainable Tourism Conference, Caribbean Union Conference, and most recently, Caribbean Premier League Cricket Foundation meeting, as well as more intimate, local events, including the Guardian Life of the Caribbean Conference and Trinidad and Tobago Bureau of Standards meeting.  “Whether it’s an executive board meeting for 10, a small graduation party, 75- to 500-guest wedding, or the Trade and Investment Conference, which is held annually at the hotel with over 3,000 attendees, our team is able to create unique experiences that are both memorable and effective,” said General Manager Russell George.

Offering 43,000 total square feet of indoor and outdoor event space, the hotel is able to accommodate events of all sizes and varieties, from large corporate conferences to intimate sunset weddings overlooking the Gulf of Paria.  Venue options include the 16,000-square-foot Regency Ballroom, accommodating more than 1,600 guests for a reception or 1,300 guests for a banquet; a 10,000-square-foot multi-purpose facility; seven banquet rooms offering 3,000 square feet of interior space; four meeting rooms ranging from 1,000 to 1,500 square feet; and two executive boardrooms for 40 to 70 guests.  All meeting spaces are fully soundproof and feature access to reliable high speed and wireless Internet, individual climate controls and advanced audio/visual capabilities.  A full-service business center and translation facilities are additionally available.

Thanks to the hotel’s fully customizable meetings and events packages, the dedicated team can take the work out of the extensive and time-consuming planning process, easily translating the needs of your group into a memorable experience.  For the ultimate in stress-free meetings, the team at the hotel’s Spa Esencia offers tailored spa packages based on the group’s needs at a special discounted rate.  From massages featuring the hotel’s exclusive product line and organic products to the latest in skincare technology such as HydraFacial, the Spa Esencia staff strives to ensure that each guest’s wishes are met.  In addition to handling on-property logistics, the on-site concierge can also individually tailor group itineraries with an array of off-property land and sea excursions, pleasing the active adventurer and beach bum alike.  From island hopping and diving to lounging the day away at the hotel’s rooftop infinity pool, attendees and guests will never find themselves without something fun to do in the twin islands.

Of course, crucial to the success of any event is cuisine, and Executive Chef Fernando Franco is both masterful and versatile in creating custom-designed, flavorful menus to suit even the most discerning palates. Combining elegant international cuisine with traditional local favorites served plated or buffet-style, Chef Fernando and his team present culinary selections that are as beautiful as they are delicious.
