The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman

About this hotel

General information

The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman sits on Seven Mile Beach on the island’s west coast, its grounds running from the sea across to a quiet harbour on the North Sound side. The resort is set in two buildings, the Ocean Tower by the water and the Resort Tower overlooking gardens and harbour, with The Great Lawn between them. Interiors pair modern coastal restraint with mid-century Caribbean style, and local artwork hangs in the rooms and suites.

It is a large resort that works as well for families as for a quiet spa stay, with a nine-hole golf club, a tennis centre, its own spa, two pools, a children’s water park and six restaurants and lounges, among them the seafood restaurant Blue by Eric Ripert. Club-level guests use The Ritz-Carlton Club Lounge, with its own concierge and food served through the day, and butler service is part of the suites.

Location

The resort lies on Seven Mile Beach on Grand Cayman’s west coast, with its golf course on the far side of the grounds looking over the North Sound. The international airport in George Town is about 6 km away. The hotel runs no shuttle of its own; guests arriving by car have complimentary valet parking and electric-car charging.

Spa

The Ritz-Carlton Spa, Grand Cayman opens daily, with a steam room, a plunge pool, a hydrotherapy bath, a whirlpool tub and separate relaxation lounges for men and women, where vibroacoustic beds play soundscapes. Treatments use ESPA and 111SKIN. Signatures include The Art of Wellness Massage, with guided breathing, salt stones and rose quartz crystals, the Exosome Regeneration Facial and Gift from the Ocean, an algae or marine-mud body wrap. The spa also offers a consultation with a personal wellness plan, a thermal circuit with vibroacoustic meditation and a floating sound bath at sunrise. Massages and the spa facilities are for guests aged 18 and over.

Sports & leisure

The Ritz-Carlton Golf Club is a nine-hole, par-36 course of about 3.2 km overlooking the North Sound, with a putting green, a golf school, lessons, equipment hire and an indoor Trackman simulator. The tennis centre has four courts (two hard, two TitanTrax), five pickleball courts, a basketball court, coaching and its own shop. The fitness centre, equipped by Technogym, has a sauna and steam room, group classes and personal training.

On the beach, snorkel gear, kayaks, water trikes, floating rafts and water hammocks are free to use, and instructors give snorkelling lessons every day. Guests can take sailing lessons, go out on a Hobie Wave, paddle a kayak towards the sunset or join a sail-and-snorkel trip. The Ambassadors of the Environment programme leads mangrove kayaking, night snorkelling and reef talks, while a Boston Whaler and the Sapphire power catamaran are available for private outings to Starfish Point and the coral reef. Diving is arranged through a partner dive centre nearby, and island tours and helicopter flights can be booked.

For children

Children have Starfish Cay, a water park with a zero-entry splash pool, water jets, gentle slides and a tipping bucket waterfall, as well as a separate children’s pool and the Wave Game Room. The Ambassadors of the Environment programme introduces children and parents together to marine life and island nature, the golf club teaches young players free of charge, and The Ritz-Carlton Club Lounge has a corner for children’s arts and crafts.
