What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Fantastic Restaurant Experience

I had an amazing time dining at the on-site restaurant. The food was always fantastic, but the highlight was definitely Colin, the bartender. He was personable and extremely attentive, making every drink a delight. My husband and I were truly sad when we had to leave without the chance to say goodbye to him! I highly recommend trying the local rum cocktails.

Perfect Suite for Honeymoon

Our room was upgraded to a beautiful suite with a balcony and ocean view as we were celebrating our honeymoon. It had a full kitchen, making our stay incredibly comfortable and convenient. It was very clean, and we enjoyed every moment spent in the room, especially with the stunning sunrises visible from our balcony.

Great Amenities & Activities

I loved the variety of activities available at the resort. We enjoyed using the complimentary snorkeling gear and kayaks provided by the hotel. It was fantastic to have such options right at our fingertips, plus the beautiful swimming spots for snorkeling just off the dock! Nothing beats exploring the vibrant marine life while chilling here.

Spacious and Clean

The bathroom in our suite was expansive with double hand basins and a jacuzzi, which added a luxurious touch to our stay. It was beautifully maintained, and it made it so much easier to get ready in the mornings. Cleanliness seemed to be a priority throughout the hotel, and I appreciated how well it was looked after.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The grounds were beautifully landscaped, and the pool was perfect for a quiet dip. However, the room left much to be desired with inconsistent cleaning and poor soundproofing. Dining options were a highlight, but the location felt isolated and inconvenient for exploring.

We had an outstanding stay at the Grand Caymanian, where we were upgraded to a beautiful ocean-front suite that made our vacation feel luxurious. The service was excellent, and the location was close to major attractions like 7-mile beach. However, the dining experiences left something to be desired, especially during our breakfast with mixed-up orders and limited options. Overall, it's a lovely resort, but there are a few areas that could be improved to enhance the experience.

Rooms

The ocean-front suite we stayed in was spacious, featuring two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a full kitchen, and a wrap-around balcony with stunning views.

Service

The staff was accommodating and eager to help, though the room service challenge left us a bit disappointed.

Location

The hotel is conveniently located just a short drive from 7-mile beach and near our Stingray City excursion, making it easy to explore.

While the restaurant offered a daily credit, our breakfast experience was not up to par with mixed orders and lackluster food quality.

6.2/10

I had a decent stay at this property, which is conveniently located near Grand Cayman's attractions. The atmosphere was quite pleasant, but the limited shuttle service and lack of dining options nearby made things a bit challenging. I loved the beautiful courtyard and the dining at the resort was satisfactory, although not perfect. Overall, it’s a nice place, but there are areas that could certainly improve.

Rooms

7.0

The rooms were decent but nothing exceptional. They were comfortable enough for what we needed, but I wouldn't rate them as luxurious.

Service

5.0

The shuttle service was a bit of a letdown—there’s only one van for the entire hotel, making reservations a necessity. It often left us relying on taxis, which can get pricey.

Location

6.0

It's a bit remote and not ideal for those who want to walk anywhere. Access to local attractions is good via the main road, but you definitely need the shuttle or a taxi.

Dining

6.0

The food at the Blue Iguana Grill was enjoyable, offering a solid selection, but the pricing felt high for what we received.

Facilities

7.0

The courtyard area is open and inviting, which was a great place to relax, but other facilities could use more attention.

I had a bit of an up-and-down experience at this hotel. While the grounds were beautifully landscaped and the pool area looked inviting, the overall condition of the rooms was disappointing. The location was quite far from the main attractions, which made getting around a hassle. Additionally, I ran into a few issues with service and the unexpected charge that dampened my stay a bit.

Rooms

5.0

The room was outdated, with a strong odor that hit me every time I entered. While fairly clean, there were some minor maintenance issues, like a wobbly toilet.

Service

The service had its moments. While the staff tried to be helpful, I encountered inconsistencies, like the cleaning schedule which didn’t match up with others in my group.

Location

The hotel was located quite far from the main attractions, which made transportation a bit tricky. It seems many taxi drivers were not keen to come here, which added to the inconvenience.

Dining

7.0

The food served during our meetings was good, with a nice variety, but the overall dining experience outside of that was lacking.

Facilities

The pool area was nice and clean, but I found the whole place could use some sprucing up as it seemed to be in a state of ongoing repair.

I had a pleasant stay at the resort, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere and the beautiful beach, although it wasn't directly on Seven Mile Beach. The rooms were decent, but don't expect luxury here. The service at the front desk was accommodating, yet some facilities were lacking. Overall, it offers a good value if you’re looking for tranquility and a quick access to the beach without the crowds.

Rooms

7.0

The rooms were decent, typical of an average hotel—no frills but clean enough.

Service

The front desk staff was very accommodating, allowing us an early check-in and a late check-out.

While the resort is not located directly on Seven Mile Beach, it’s a short drive away, making it a quiet spot to relax.

Dining

I only had drinks at the hotel restaurant but didn’t get to try the food; however, breakfast via room service was quite disappointing.
