Also in AFAR.
This Grand Cayman staple has a clean, natural aesthetic and the guest rooms feature classic Caribbean decor like light turquoise walls and contrasting dark wood furniture.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Seven Mile Beach is right outside, and the pastel storefronts of George Town are a short drive down West Bay Road.
The rooms
Rooms are finished in soft coral and sky tones, and most look straight out over Seven Mile Beach.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
A freshwater swimming pool and whirlpool sit along Seven Mile Beach, bordered by palms and white loungers.
The spa
