Grand Cayman Marriott
Hotel Information: This compact Marriott resort attracts couples and families looking for a relaxing holiday centered on the beach and water activities. Decorated in warm, island-inspired hues, the resort blends neatly with its environment. Nature lovers will enjoy the native sea life – especially the nearby Cayman Turtle Farm – and health-conscious patrons will appreciate the resort's smoke-free policy.
Amenity highlights: Situated along Grand Cayman's famed Seven Mile Beach, this Marriott resort offers a snorkeling reef 50 yards off shore. A watersports center rents snorkeling gear, personal watercraft, and arranges fishing trips, scuba-diving lessons, and other excursions (surcharges). Tropical gardens surround a freeform oceanfront pool and large spa tub.
La Mer Spa provides body wraps and scrubs, hair braiding, couples’ massage, and other services (surcharges).
Insider tip: Nearby Rum Point is a 35-minute trip across North Sound and site of a tranquil beach and lively weekend entertainment. The ferry to Rum Point leaves from a dock located one mile from the resort (surcharge).
Inspired by its tropical location, Grand Cayman Marriott Beach Resort guestrooms have private balconies and views of the ocean, courtyard with a turtle lagoon, or of the island. All include Revive Collection Bedding: 300-thread-count cotton linens with white-and-beige design; down comforter (bedspread) with cotton cover, freshly laundered for each guest; six down pillows, including bolster; and a separate mattress topper.
