Our Inspector's Highlights

Blue by Eric Ripert is the undisputed culinary attraction at the Grand Cayman hotel — and justifiably so. But there are other gastronomic gems here: Taikun is popular for its fresh, delicious sushi and rolls, though foodies should opt for the impressive omakase with sake pairings (the restaurant has the largest sake collection on the island). And while alfresco Andiamo is more casual, the made-from-scratch pastas and housemade gelato are pure comfort food.
Greg Norman’s nine-hole Ritz-Carlton golf course provides ample challenges as you tee off into Caribbean trade winds and navigate eight waterfront holes.
After a day full of sun-drenched activity, the hotel’s water-inspired spa is a welcome respite.
When you aren’t on the pristine beach, you’ll want to spend your time at Silver Palm, the lobby lounge that gets its name from the Cayman Islands’ national tree. The statement-making space is saturated in a soft green that’s the same hue of the underside of a thatch palm leaf. Enjoy coffee and tea in the morning and then rare rums and cigars in the evening.
The luxury hotel is home to the Caribbean’s largest suite. The lavish Seven South spans nearly 18,000 square feet on the top floor of the Ocean Tower. It offers a three-bedroom penthouse and the ability to add three connecting two-bedroom suites, and a vast terrace with amazing beach vistas.

Things to Know

Balance your intake of spiked Caribbean tipples with a proper afternoon tea Friday to Sunday between 2 and 4 p.m. at the Silver Palm lounge.
Families will find a hit in Starfish Cay, an interactive water playground full of slides and fountains. This inherently family-friendly property entertains children and adults alike with Ambassadors of the Environment; enroll your little ones in snorkeling 101 or join them on a mangrove kayak trip.
The Courts feature four tennis courts, two with TitanTrax surfaces and five dedicated pickleball courts, all with professional instruction available.
As you journey to your room, you will indeed know you’ve arrived in the Caymans: the long hallway showcases the work of local artists. It’s the largest and longest-running art gallery on the island.

The Rooms

The 369 accommodations feel residential with a sofa and ottoman, a round dining table with a banquette and woven leather-strap chairs, and a wood armoire that holds the minibar and the Nespresso machine.
The crisp-white spaces with four-poster beds have subtle nods to the island. Get a glimpse of the thatched palms in the foyer’s muted gray leaf print wallpaper and the screens framing the floor-to-ceiling windows and door. The rope in the custom light fixtures reference the island’s former rope-making industry. The art on the walls adds a burst of color, and while the pieces vary, they all include ching-chings, native local birds known for their boisterous call.
In creamy marble bathrooms, guests will find Frette linens and plush robes, Diptyque luxury bath and body products and a separate glass-enclosed shower alongside a deep soaking tub creating a refined, spa-like retreat.
All rooms and suites feature balconies from which to watch the palms sway.
