While I was away from Haiti for 2
years, a new hotel Les Trois Rois was built along the beach in Ducroix, between
Cap Haitian and Labadee. I didn’t see a sign along the road, look on a web map
to find the gate. The hotel is beautiful and felt like it was very old, in a
good way, with stately wood accents. There is direct access to the beach, just
steps away from the hotel pool. When the tide is high you can sit on the deck
and enjoy the waves lapping below. There is both indoor and covered outdoor
seating for meals. A group was having a meeting there, and another was
celebrating a wedding.
The lunch and dinner menu is a variety of fish and meat and limited for vegetarians, but the standard bannann peze, pikliz, and vegetables are very good. The breakfast was super good! Coffee, fruit, soup joumou, and kasava which was suitable for my new gluten intolerance. Some of the rooms have balconies, all have AC and hot water and are roomy.
For my nature-exploring side it was limited due to the small area of the grounds and being right along the main road. There is a sort of tidal pool at the corner of the deck to watch crabs and aquatic isopods, and brown pelicans landed in the water nearby. From the 3rd floor balcony we saw a white-crowned pigeon and other birds in the treetops across the road. Go to the nearby Cormier Plage grounds for a meal, or along the road higher up to see more birds.
