Cayman Islands

Mark and David's verdict

Grand Cayman is sophisticated, polished and safe - in every sense of the word - with classy hotels, top restaurants and dreamy Seven Mile Beach. There's also plenty to explore with pristine reefs, stingray encounters, submarine trips, botanical parks and island-hopping excursions to Cayman Brac or Little Cayman. Perfect with or without the kids.

Turquoise Holidays says

The Cayman Islands is the dream destination for those seeking the independence offered by a first world tropical destination that begs to be explored. Beyond the sugar white sand of Seven Mile Beach lie 76 miles of pristine coastline interspersed by traditional villages and breathtaking ocean views.

The sophisticated Caribbean lifestyle combined with the multi-national community spirit weaves its spell on all who visit. Many discover it on their honeymoon and find themselves returning year after year – it is also a family favourite.

You won’t find all-inclusive resorts, but you will enjoy a consistently high quality of accommodation and service.  Five star glamour comes no better than the Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman or the Caribbean ClubCotton Tree is perfect for couples seeking peace and solitude – traditional Caymanian-style  cottages with no expense spared in their design.

Grand Cayman has over 150 restaurants from beach bars and Caymanian cafes to swish international restaurants. The attractions are equally diverse, from local markets to one of the world’s most priceless collection of cars.

There’s stunning snorkelling inches off the shore, and endless water sports and world-class diving for the more adventurous, including the legendary Stingray City. Take a trip on the Atlantis Submarine and explore the Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park, roamed by the giant Grand Cayman Blue Iguana.

For those wishing to escape to a true paradise lost, a 40 minute flight is all it takes to get to rugged Cayman Brac, or her idyllic little sister, Little Cayman, which is one of the last truly wild islands left in the Caribbean.
