Whether you prefer the lap of luxury or the
simple life, the Cayman Islands has an unparalleled choice of world class
accommodations to complete your vacation experience.
Throughout our three islands, visitors can expect to find the perfect
accommodation to suit both lifestyle and budget requirements. In Grand Cayman,
full service resorts include the Hyatt Regency Grand Cayman, Westin Casuarina
Resort and Marriott Cayman Beach Resort, and visitors and residents alike are
anxiously awaiting the completion of the Ritz Carlton Resort, slated to open
October 2005.
For the visitor looking for accommodation outside
the full service resort, Grand Cayman also has a wide selection of modern and
well-equipped hotels and condominiums, including over 100 self-catering villas
and cottages.
Our Sister Islands of Cayman Brac and Little Cayman have a charm all their own.
Cayman Brac has a diverse selection of resort, hotel and condominiums, while the
quieter Little Cayman has a selection of unique properties to meet the needs of
visitors seeking a relaxing getaway or an adventurous dive
vacation.
The Cayman Islands Department of Tourism commits
significant time and resources to ensure that hotels comply with all standards
set out in the Tourism Accommodations Law. All accommodations are subject to
ongoing inspections, and ongoing training and staff development programs are
provided to staff and management of tourism businesses to ensure that they have
the knowledge and training necessary to provide world-class products and service >
You'll never be short of things to do in The
Cayman Islands. World-class scuba diving, snorkeling, and sailing are just the
beginning of your Islands' adventure. The Islands' history is rich in exotic
detail, as our Museum, Botanical Garden and National Trust clearly demonstrate.
So whether it's a trip under the sea to feed the stingrays, an excursion to the
Turtle Farm for a hands-on experience of one of nature's most inspiring
miracles, or a journey into the past to revisit the first landing by Christopher
Columbus, a feast for the senses-and sensibilities-awaits.
Whether you opt to go in it, or just sit above
it, there's something about the turquoise waters, white sand and refreshing
breezes that keep visitors to the Cayman Islands coming back for more. There's
no limit to the number of things you can see and do, from the thrill of going
underwater without getting wet to the fun of parasailing along the beautiful
Seven Miles Beach or just basking in the sun. The ideas are endless when you
just add water.
Watersports centers that offer a variety of ways to get wet are located in the
most convenient spots in the Cayman Islands, with the main centers being located
at major hotels on Island. Depending on the location, these might include ocean
kayaks, windsurfing boards, hobie cats, waverunners, aqua trikes, view boards,
sun searcher floats, banana boat rides, paddle cats, paddleboats, parasailing,
water-skiing or small sailboats.
Many visitors have discovered the popular
watersport windsurfing, skimming with the wind across the surface of the
Caribbean is a thrilling experience extolled by windsurfing aficionados. Grand
Cayman's East End, North Sound and west coast combine to create an ideal range
of conditions for windsurfers of all levels. Avid windsurfers rate the four
miles of reef-protected shallows off East End as the best location. Prevailing
winds there are 15-25 miles per hour from November through March, with 6 to 10
knot southeasterly breezes in summer months.
