The Westin Grand Cayman Seven Mile Beach Resort & Spa

This is our second time staying at the Westin and it will definitely not be our last. This hotel has the best location on Seven Mile Beach. Our room was so nice, clean, modern. The lobby of the hotel smells amazing. There are plenty of umbrellas and beach chairs, you just need to get up early and get a set. They also have an 8am daily beach yoga session. There’s a pretty lively bar in the lobby serving up cocktails. There is also a coffee shop which has a few breakfast items. The coffee is ok, nothing great. We had breakfast once in the restaurant on the premises. It wasn’t good and very over priced. Go to Eats Cafe right across the street. It has a great breakfast for a third of what you will pay at the Westin. We had lunch on the beach, the lunch menu is great. The salad are all delicious and the smash burger is a must. We had the nachos which were very good as well. Service was great. Everyone was so helpful and nice. We love th Cayman Islands and we love this hotel!

As a traveler with mobility issues travel is always hit or miss for accessibility. From the moment we arrived, Kirk greeted us with a smile and a warm welcome. Beach Ambassadors were available when my travel partner was off doing things I wasn't interested in. The grounds are impeccable and the beach is stunning even when the weather isn't perfect. Restaurants on site are great at the offerings and the sushi was the best we ever had. The most amazing experience was at the Hibiscus Spa. My son went down to see if they could accommodate me with a massage. To my delight they could. Elizabeth guided me through the process to get ready for the massage and then handed me over to Simone. There is not enough space to say what an amazing masseuse she is. A bright and bubbly personality coupled with amazing professional skills made the hour fly by. I felt relaxed and rejuvenated at the end. I hadn't felt that good in forever. We will be going back and I will be seeing Simone again. Ask for Simone, she is not only an amazing professional but a beautiful soul.

We took a chance and splurged to visit Grand Cayman for the first time and stay at the Westin. The Island is very expensive, and when researching, many folks mentioned Westin along with other resorts such as Ritz, Kimpton, etc. We chose Westin based on the great reviews, consistent mentions of pristine beach area and a bit more affordable than other places. We are so glad we did! The service was top notch, we always found a great seat either by the pool or beach and the beach setup was perfect with umbrellas, tables and a call button for service! The beach had zero seaweed / sargassum and crystal clear water, which was amazing. We loved having the fresh coconut cut open for us one day, refreshing coconut water. We thought the breakfast buffet was above average compared to other similar types of buffets. Although there are some who mention the resort could use some updating or sprucing up, we found everything to be super clean and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again if visiting.

We have never gone on an island trip over Christmas break before. The inflated prices, the crowds, but we took a chance based on a friend's recommendation and after seeing mostly positive reviews on trip advisor. This was our first time in the Caymans and it quickly became our new favorite island. Loved the quick, flat drive from the airport (if you've been to St. Thomas you know what I mean). The people are by far the friendliest we have ever encountered anywhere we've been. Taxi drivers, bartenders, hotel staff, housekeeping, it was a great thing to experience. Our rooms were ready upon arrival (early) and they followed our requests. To note - We stayed on the North side of the hotel and were woken up every morning at 7am by the roosters, other family members stayed on the south side of the hotel and did not have this problem. Loved our morning beach yoga classes, there's also a smaller gym that has what you need if you want to get an indoor work-out in. Had no problem getting machines and weights even during busy holiday season. Loved the bottled water and cold towel I received from the front staff after returning from a run. From what I saw after walking along the entire beach, The Westin has the best chair set up. The beach is wide, there are tables and umbrellas and plenty of space. You don't feel like you're packed in on top of the person next to you like at The Ritz. You do have to get up early to secure your chairs but I have not been to any hotel where that was not the case (even at the Four Seasons). The best part, the service! A small disk on your umbrella and you press it and it alerts your server. The service on the beach was the best we have ever experienced - hands down! And the food is amazing! I saw someone say the food was terrible, that's insane! The fish tacos, the lobster roll, the quinoa salad with fish, crispy tuna bowl, even the chicken fingers and fries were good! We didn't go in the pool once, because it was too cold, but we're beach people so it didn't really matter. Red Sail sports right on property for excursions and boat rental was so convenient. Housekeeping was also great, serviced our room everyday and not once did we have to call and ask for anything. There's also an empty mini fridge in your room if you want to run across the street to the convenience store for drinks or snacks (great if you have younger kids). They did a great job with the New Years eve party. Insanely overpriced and they didn't do the water fireworks because it was too rough, but there was a band and then a dj, fortune tellers, photobooth, fire dancers, tables right on the beach with a huge buffet and bar. Here is my only complaint. No coffee. I have never been to a hotel where there wasn't a coffee machine in your room and/coffee offered in the lobby. The only option to get a cup of coffee at the hotel was to wait on the insanely long line at the cafe, which is where everyone was ordering their breakfast. Suggestion - make a coffee only line at the cafe. Overall we had an excellent, relaxing trip thanks to the staff at The Westin and the wonderful people of Grand Cayman! Can't wait to go back!

The Westin Grand Cayman is hands down our favorite getaway. We’ve been there three times already and cannot wait to return. From the moment you arrive, the staff make you feel genuinely welcomed. Everyone is friendly, helpful, and always happy to go the extra mile. The food and drinks at the pool area are absolutely phenomenal and a highlight of every stay. Whether you’re relaxing by the water or enjoying a casual meal, the quality and service never disappoint. A special thank-you to Shirlando and Lekiysha, who went above and beyond to keep our kids (5 and 7) entertained. Their energy, kindness, and genuine care truly made our experience even more memorable. They are wonderful people and a real asset to the resort.

Our stay at the westin was incredible! We travelled with our kids (8yo and 6yo) and had so many incredible experiences both on and off property. The property is very well kept, cleans and relaxing - good food, great drinks and entertainment, tons of live music and games, and some of the best private beach on the island. Things were never crowded, no trouble getting seats at the pool or beach and a great mix of ages and travellers. The staff are amazing - special shoutout to Shirlando who consistently went above and beyond, is incredible with kids and ran a lot of the activities at the hotel - he made our kids feel so special and they were always excited to share their adventures with him. If you’re looking for a great place to chill for a fun family vacation or want to make it home base for island adventures, the Westin is a fantastic choice! We can’t wait to come back :)

Amazing family friendly resort with incredible guest service… special shout-out to Arun in Housekeeping who took extra special care of me when I had to work late one night and needed some extra coffee delivered to my room. Not only did Arun personally request my coffee but he came back later that evening to check to make sure I received it. Thank you Arun for being part of my beautiful hotel stay experience, and for making us all feel so special here! The Westin Grand Cayman is lucky to have you.

This was one of the best vacations I’ve ever been on. The hotel, island, weather and particularly the people make it an amazing experience. Although we had phenomenal service at many places, our service from Ryan B. (Aka Kentucky) at the Westin was next level. He made our trip absolutely unforgettable, and I wholeheartedly encourage all of my friends and family to go to the island and ask for him by name. He went above and beyond for us everyday, and we always requested his services when beach side. Thank you so much Kentucky, and we are looking forward to our next experience with you.

Our server, Ryan B., provided truly exceptional service throughout our 7 day stay at The Westin Seven Mile Beach Resort &Spa. We eagerly sought out his beach sections and dining tables as he was incredibly attentive, had a professional friendly attitude, and was always happy to accommodate our many dietary restrictions by offering knowledgeable recommendations from the menu and drink list. We truly appreciated his service which definitely made our stay more relaxing and enjoyable! When booking our trip next fall, we will definitely be calling ahead to make sure Ryan is on deck! The resort was well maintained, friendly staff and gorgeous white sandy beach!

We have just returned from a 7-night stay and had a fabulous time. We were originally booked to stay in the sister hotel over the road (Sunshine Suites) but due to extended renovation work they honoured our booking (at the original rate) and moved us to the Westin Grand for the week. Transfer time from the airport was approx. 20 mins and cost approx. £30KYD. We used the taxi service at the airport to get to the hotel (hotel arranged a taxi for our return journey back to the airport). We checked in just before 6pm and it was swift and easy. You don’t get allocated a keycard but a fob bracelet instead (a resort map and, spa menu/charges and activity list area also provided). We were allocated a room facing the main road which had a nice balcony (some of the rooms we noticed don’t have balconies). The room was very commodious, tastefully decorated, had plenty of storage space with plug and USB sockets dotted about everywhere. The bed and pillows were really comfy too. There were several mirrors and decent lighting, we only used the TV for background noise when we were getting ready on a night and there were plenty of English-speaking channels. Didn’t have the air con on much but when it was on it worked well and didn’t make much noise. A safe, hair dryer, ice bucket (ice machines located on all floors), iron, ironing board, bath robe, mini fridge, 2 x glasses, coffee machine (stocked daily with coffee, milk and sweetener) were provided as standard. A few bottles of complimentary Aquafina water bottles were provided daily (there are 2 large bottles of Fiju water provided on the sideboard, but these aren’t complimentary and are $8KYD each). Body wash, shampoo and conditioner are provided in the shower area and mouthwash, body lotion and soap are provided near the sink area. Couldn’t hear any noise from the main road but we were rudely woken up daily at 4:00am by the cockerels that reside in the front of the hotel and the beach areas. The hotel really needs to do something about them, even our earplugs couldn’t defend the noise. Wi-fi was excellent especially down the beach and never dropped out. Housekeeping serviced the room daily. We loved the beach and pool areas. Beach towels are provided for free and can be picked up from the kiosk (area 5 on the resort map) just to the right of the large surfboard. There are several helpful and friendly beach ambassadors who will assist with moving/adjusting any sunlounges or parasols. The sunbeds are very comfy. It was a weight lifted off our shoulders knowing the sunbeds were in abundance and we didn’t have to get up early to reserve one (the front rows on the beach are snapped up quite quickly). We loved the few floating islands that the hotel provided in the sea where you could just drift away to sleep on them catching the sun. The sand is lush, white and soft complimented by a beautiful azure shoreline. We used the two hot tubs several times, both are located to the sides of the pool. Drinking water is provided for free around the entrance to the beach and on the side of the pool bar. We also seen some free water in the hallway just before the gift shop. With our return flight being at 18:50pm we requested a late check out 24 hours before departure. Although we couldn’t extend a late check out in our room already assigned, we were allowed a courtesy room (on the ground floor) free of charge until 15:00pm. We were extremely grateful for this, and the courtesy room was exactly like our room (albeit on the ground floor). The unique selling point of this hotel is the location. The hotel is directly facing the cheapest bar and eatery on the island – Legends. We read about this before we arrived and our original booking at the sunshine suites is just a few minutes’ walk from it. Once we dumped the bags after check-in we quickly ran over to catch the first happy hour of the evening (16.30pm to 19:00pm), then we popped into Black Beard’s liquor store to get some supplies, got a shower and headed back out for second happy hour 22:00pm till close. You won’t find a cheaper bar with the best happy hour on the island. All highballs £4KYD, beer bottles $4KYD, cocktails $5KYD. Prices weren’t that bad outside of happy hour where drinks such as gin/vodka including mixer was $6KYD and 20oz draft beer $5.50KYD (didn’t buy any drinks in the hotel but some of the prices we seen on the menus were showing a beer at happy hour priced at $6.50KYD and a cocktail was $8KYD which outside of happy hour was $14KYD). We also ate every night at Legends – prices for chicken burger/hamburger and fries $9.95KYD, build your own pasta dish $11.95KYD and chicken wrap with fries $12.95KYD, all the portion sizes were huge. There are also other eateries featured in the plaza where Legends is located including a sushi place, eats cafe and ice cream parlour. We booked our stingray city and star fish point excursion at Captain Marvin’s water sports which is also featured in this plaza. We absolutely loved this excursion and highly recommend it. We also used Black beards liquor store (that also features in this plaza) for all our alcohol needs. Supermarket wise we used the cost U less store which is a approx. 5-minute walk and is next to Governor’s square (there are other eateries, ATMs/banks and a Tortuga liquor store featured around here). This store is closed on a Sunday. Managed to get some cheap ‘Cayman Islands’ souvenirs here including a Cayman islands t-shirt - $15KYD and Cayman Islands Cap- $11KYD. One of the days the weather was dodgy, so we decided to take a stroll. We walked to Fosters supermarket (about a mile from the hotel), we then decided to keep on going and ended up in George Town. Popped into another supermarket on the way call Kirks Market. Visiting these supermarkets was a great opportunity to stock up on all the USA products that we love but can’t get in England like Crack an Egg and Coppertone SPF 8. Kirk’s had a large range of Iceland and Sainsbury’s frozen products (English supermarket brands) and Foster’s sold a range of Waitrose. Noticed that Kirk’s sold Lansoprazole on the shelf (in England we have to get a Perscription from the Doctor and can’t buy over the counter/off the shelf). Our return flight was the last of the day so most of the airport shops and restaurants were closing once we entered the departure gate (seen a Wendy’s and a small café next to it). For those who smoke there wasn’t much variety of cigarettes I think we spotted Marlborough and another brand all priced at $94KY a sleeve. Duty free alcohol was much cheaper in Blackbeard’s/Tortuga. The airport did sell cheaper Cayman T-shirts though 2 for $20KYD. We knew about the resort fee, which was payable once we checked out, it was $48KYD a day. Popped our heads in the gym which was a decent size, with a variety of equipment and open 24 hours. We found the air-con in lobby and corridors to be absolutely freezing; we mentioned this in passing to one of the chaps on the front door and they must have reported it seemed to have reduced the last few days of the stay. Overall, we had a fantastic week’s holiday at the West Grand Cayman and will return in a heartbeat. The hotel is in the perfect location with bars/restaurants/shops to the front of it and a perfect beach setting to the back of it. We couldn’t have asked for anything more. The staff we did encounter during our stay were all fantastic, friendly and courteous. We want to say a big thanks to you all and another thanks to the Westin for honouring our original booking at the Sunshine Suites. We are intrigued to see what the sister hotel Sunshine Suites is about though. We were speaking to an Irish chap who was also staying at the hotel, and he said he has stayed at the Sunshine Suites 11 times and loved it. He also highlighted you can use the pool and beach facilities at the Westin at no extra charge.

The Beach House restaurant at The Westin Grand Cayman Seven Mile Beach Resort is up there with some of the finest dining anywhere. The menu is diverse and absolutely wonderful. The flavors were all spot on. But the best part was the service, especially from Oliver. He is a true gentleman, very attentive and polite. He made every meal (6 visits) a truly enjoyable experience. I enjoyed the dinner knowing that I was in professional and caring hands. What a difference when an experienced young server is so kind and up-beat about his work. I highly recommend Oliver and suggest that you seek him out. Every night he treated me with the utmost respect and friendliness. I think that no matter what Oliver might do, he would be successful at it. By the end of my stay he had my preferences down and would welcome me with my favorite wine and make the best recommendations for the nights meal. He would surprise me with special treats for which I was extremely grateful. I have rarely encountered such a memorable person at a fine dining restaurant, and will anticipate seeing him again when I return with my wife in a few months time. I only hope he'll still be there, making all the difference! Thank you Oliver!

The Westin on the 7 mile beach is a slice of heaven with so much to offer to all ages and groups. Solo, couples, families and friends. My second time coming here and I will continue for many more years. Love the Cayman Islands!! A convenient location with much to offer while enjoying the glorious white sandy beach. The reason for this review is to thank and do a call out for an outstanding woman, Jodian, who works at the front desk at the Westin. I was having issues with the room I originally checked into and was trying to be moved. She overheard my conversation and frustration in nothing being available with the 2 girls who were helping me. She had been working on a reservation that had been a no show and instead of just handling that reservation, she intervened to help us and get us that room that had become available. We were so grateful, she took the initiative to get involved to help us. A game changer for our week here. Thank you Jodian for being superior in your job and making a difference of going above and beyond. I hope your manager knows what an asset you are to the Westin.

We had a great time at the Westin Grand Cayman, the beach was stunning and no seaweed. The water was calm and very clear most days. The staff at the hotel were very welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. A special shout-out to Shirlando at the kids club who was always super pleasant and very welcoming to our family for the various activities he was running throughout our stay. He made us feel at home. The resort is clean, well maintained and all amenities are easily accessible.

We have just spent 7 nights at The Westin and really enjoyed our time there. The Westin is modern and centrally located, making it an ideal spot. The pool and beach had plenty of sunbeds making it comfortable wherever you preferred. More then anything what makes this place is the staff. They were kind, accomadating and helpful. I just want to mention a few members who particularly stood out. Khushali at the Front Desk was our first interaction when we arrived. Our luggage was left in error by the airline in Bahamas and she was so helpful in helping us contact the airline. She checked in with us later to see our luggage arrived and was always helpful whenever we went to the desk. Thomas was another member of staff who went above and beyond. We again met on the first day and we had something in common, we were both Londoners! Thomas was great with recommendations on things to do, see and eat and we did many if not all his suggestions and they were all great. It was great to see him daily and have a catch up. Arun was also another fantastic member of staff. He saw us walking on arrival without our luggage and was instantly asking if there is anything he could do to help. These little things count for a lot and whenever we saw him he always had a big smile on his face asking about our stay and if there is anything he could help us with. It was again lovely to chat to him whenever we saw him. Finally i would like to thank Georgie on the beach. He was helpful, talkative, attentive and went out of his way to ensure you had everything you needed. He brought a great vibe to the area

I recently spent five amazing days relaxing at the Westin Grand Cayman Seven Mile Beach Resort & Spa. The facilities were great, and having a view of the beach made the trip even more amazing. We sure don't have water that beautiful blue in New York City! The best thing about the Westin, however, was the staff. So, in no particular order, I want to thank the following folks for making the trip so special: Servers at the beach bar and restaurant: Mel, Dee, Wendy, Isaura, Tanika Bartender: Vasco Beach Ambassador: Jay Front Desk: Jodi Ann, Elbetel, and Christa Lee (hope I got these names correct) Ferdinand's: Nick Woto: Husni Front Door: Kirk Coffee Exchange: Thiago Thank you folks for all!

Stayed 3 nights at the Westin and had a great stay! Hotel is clean, beds comfortable, food and drinks were great! Best of all the staff were awesome! Everyone from check in to restaurant to pool and beach staff were great! Elly the waitress by the pool and Linton who worked the beach chairs were the best! I loved meeting them both and they went above and beyond! Highly recommend the Westin!

From the moment I arrived at The Westin Grand Cayman, I knew it was going to be a special trip and that feeling was entirely because of Arun K. His warm smile and the genuine way he welcomed us immediately set the tone for our entire stay. There’s something about the way he carries himself, professional yet so personable. Which makes you feel like you’re not just another guest, but someone he truly cares about making comfortable and happy. While my time there, Arun went above and beyond in every possible way. He checked in to make sure everything was perfect, offered thoughtful suggestions for things to do, and always took a moment to stop and chat with such sincerity that it felt like catching up with an old friend. You can tell that he takes immense pride in his work and genuinely loves creating memorable experiences for guests. It’s rare these days to meet someone in hospitality who embodies such authentic kindness, empathy, and passion for what they do. Arun didn’t just help make our stay enjoyable, but he made it unforgettable. His attention to detail, calm energy, and ability to make everyone feel at ease reflect the very best of what The Westin brand stands for. I travel often, and it’s easy to forget the names and faces of staff you meet along the way, but I know I’ll remember Arun for a long time. People like him are the heart and soul of great hotels, and The Westin Grand Cayman is truly lucky to have someone of his character on their team. Thank you, Arun, for making this trip so special. You turned what was already a beautiful resort experience into something deeply personal and meaningful. This was all because of you, I can’t wait to come back again soon.
