"A contemporary luxury resort on a premier beach known for stunning sunset views, multiple pools, and a focus on seaside relaxation; its on-site dining features refined Caribbean-influenced menus and special tasting experiences." - Travel + Leisure Editors
"A contemporary, 264-room beachfront property at the heart of Seven Mile Beach that houses standout food-and-drink concepts worth visiting even if not staying on property—most notably a celebrated cocktail bar and an elevated, Mexican street food–inspired beach eatery—making it a hub for both resort amenities and lively culinary offerings." - Carley Rojas Avila Carley Rojas Avila Carley Rojas Avila is a bilingual travel writer, editor, and content marketer.

"A design-forward beachfront resort on Grand Cayman’s Seven Mile Beach that pairs stylish ocean-view accommodations with serious sustainability measures—LEED Silver certification, solar panels, geothermal cooling, rainwater collection, and creative recycling programs. The 264 ocean-view rooms and six villa bungalows offer floor-to-ceiling sea vistas and freestanding tubs, while on-site highlights include a Splash water park, a hammam and hydrotherapy garden, complimentary water sports, coral-restoration Seafire Guardians, and a literary-inspired cocktail bar." - Laura Begley Bloom
"Grand Cayman may be famous for its SCUBA diving and offshore banking, but with several daily non-stops from New York and Boston, it’s increasingly drawing families to its powdery, placid western Caribbean beaches. On the island’s Seven Mile Beach—one of the loveliest stretches of sand in the world—you'll find the 266-room Kimpton Seafire Resort & Spa, with a boutique atmosphere that manages to be both child-friendly (two pools, a kids' club) and hip (colorful, contemporary design and a lobby scene replete with pool table, library, and daily happy hour). The food is also strong: Hit beachside Coccoloba for fish tacos and ceviches; Ave, the resort's primary restaurant, for epic breakfast buffets (including house-made cronuts); and the sceney Avecita for progressive Spanish fare like white anchovy toast and prawn tartare, served up alongside craft cocktails at the chef’s counter. You can always snorkel and parasail right off the hotel’s beach, but you’re also just a short ride from Stingray City (where you can stand on a sandbar and touch giant rays as they swim by), world-class gardens (look for the endangered blue iguana), golf, and roadside jerk chicken. Hit Rum Point to toast the sunset—or maybe you'll prefer doing that from your own private balcony." - CNT Editors
"The festive season kicks off on Dec. 17 and runs through Jan. 3. During that time, you’ll find gourmet feasts like the beloved ugly sweater and Christmas Day brunches and a Caribbean Christmas Eve party on the sand. Between swimming at the pool and building sandcastles, tiny travelers will love creating seashell ornaments and decorating cookies at Camp Seafire, the fun zone for children ages five to 12. Add to that the chance to craft family handprint cards and snap complimentary photos with Santa." - Lindsay Cohn Lindsay Cohn Lindsay Cohn is a writer, editor, and avid traveler who has visited 45 countries across six continents — and counting.
