Cayman Islands Accommodations

Accommodations in the Cayman Islands meet even the highest standards

Tried and True

The Cayman Islands take pride in providing world class accommodations to their visitors. In fact, there is even a Tourism Accommodations Law, and the government's Tourist Board routinely checks with hotels to make sure they adhere to the utmost standards for their guests.

No matter what kind of vacation you're hoping to find on these islands, you'll have your pick of hotels in many shapes and sizes.

Travelers to Grand Cayman Island will find everything from big-name resort hotels to condo rentals and smaller hotels. And with more than 100 self-catering cottages and villas to choose from, you'll never be short on options. Keep in mind, however, that most of the hotels here are found along the popular and crowded Seven Mile Beach.

The smaller islands have their own unique offerings. Cayman Brac focuses on resorts, hotels, and condos for their guests. Little Cayman, however, is a little quieter, and travelers interested in snorkeling will find resorts dedicated to the sport.

One thing to keep in mind in the Caymans is that accommodations may seem a little pricey. The least you're likely to pay for a room is $75(USD) per night, though prices are generally much higher, with some ranging past $500(USD) per night. However, don't forget that in the low season (April 15 through December 15), hotels may discount as much as 50 percent of the room cost. This can help to make your vacation more affordable. Resort packages also help keep costs down, especially for divers.

Gratuities for maid services are generally included in the hotel bill and range from 5 to 10 percent of the total bill. Additionally, there is a 10 percent government tax on all accommodations. These costs will not generally be quoted as part of the nightly rate, so add them to your budget.

The Cayman Islands work hard to make your stay a tropical delight, accommodations and all.
