Grand Cayman Island Resorts

Grand Cayman island resorts come in many shapes and sizes but, thanks to Hurricane Ivan a few years back, they’re all re-modeled into modern luxury accommodations. 

All you need to do is choose the one that suits you.

One thing resorts tend to do that hotels, villas and B&Bs; can’t is attract shops and other services, like banks to the neighborhood.

Something to remember about the Cayman Islands is they are tax-free for residents but one of the ways their Government raises cash is a tax on rooms.


Grand Cayman Island Resorts from C to M

That said, here are the Grand Cayman island resorts in as near alphabetical order as I can manage. Be sure to click on any photo to bring up the Gallery.

Grand Cayman Island Resorts, Cayman Beach Suites

Cayman Beach Suites on West Bay Road and Seven Mile Beach were once part of the Hyatt Regency Resort that was damaged by Hurricane Ivan. Extensively renovated, this beautiful resort is one of the nicest along the beach (photo on left).

Like almost all 7 Mile Beach accommodations, it’s close to the action on West Bay Road or in George Town.





Grand Cayman Island Resorts, Cayman Reef Resort

Cayman Reef Resort is also on Seven Mile Beach and West Bay Road, photo below, is a smaller resort of recently renovated condos. It’s handy for almost everything, especially the beach!


Cobalt Coast is on the North Shore and off the beaten track at Boatswain’s Bay. ‘Off-the-beaten-track’ means about 10 minutes drive from George Town, and even less to the Seven Mile Beach area, so it’s close to the action if you want a change of pace. If you don’t, it has an on-site dive center , Divetech, to keep you fully occupied. Book your stay here at Cobalt Coast.

Comfort Suites on Seven Mile Beach has studios and 1 or 2 bedroom suites that include kitchen facilities. They advertise themselves as a budget resort, and they do various packages, still they don’t go cheap on things that matter. The resort has a dive shop, a pool (with poolside bar and restaurant) and jacuzzi for those who, like me, prefer their water risk-free. There’s also a discount for guests at the nearby Britannia Golf Course. Check them out at: www.caymancomfort.com

Grand Cayman Island Resorts, Compass Point luxury dive resort

Compass Point Dive Resort is in the East End of the island, just past the village of East End to be precise and about 20 miles from the airport. Compass Point is a dive resort of 27 condominiums. Call them at: 1-345-947-0000 or, 1 (800) 348 6096 (toll free from North America), Monday to Friday, 8am-5pm. Or visit their website at : http://www.compasspoint.ky

Courtyard Marriott is also right on Seven Mile Beach, has two dining rooms, 2 bars and a fitness centre to work of any overindulgence the bars and meals are likely to encourage. It’s near the Safehaven golf course course (though Britannia isn’t that much further) and Governor’s Harbour for boating, diving enthusiasts. Visit their website at: www.marriott.com/gcmcy

Marriott Beach Resort, like the more affordable Courtyard Marriott, is on 7 Mile Beach and was recently named ‘Grand Cayman’s Leading Hotel’ by World Travel Awards. They have an on-site spa and salon for that decadent luxury vacation treat. This is a big resort with 4 different dining rooms. Visit them at: www.marriott.com

Grand Cayman island resorts, Morritts Tortuga and Grand

Most Grand Cayman island resorts are centered around 7 Mile Beach but Morritts Tortuga and Grand are located in the quieter East End ‘off-the-beaten-track’, about 30 minutes from George Town, but they do provide nightly entertainment and have a Red Sails Sports center right on their beach, which makes them pretty self-contained.

If you book accommodation in the East End or Rum Point, you may, at some point during your stay, want to consider renting a car.

Grand Cayman island resorts, Morritts entrance

We stayed at Morritts and thought it was great. There are three pools, one of which is right on the beach so you can drink at the bar and imagine you’re in the ocean (this may seem odd behavior when you’ve flown thousands of miles to be at the beach but at least you know what’s in the water!). The other two pools seem to settle out as one for the families and one, the Park pool, for the adults. The Park pool is also where they do dive training, water aerobics and any other water based experience.

Grand Cayman Island Resorts, Plantation Village on 7 Mile Beach

Plantation Village is a timeshare resort on 7 Mile Beach and another great place to stay.
