The Westin Casuarina, Grand Cayman – Seven Mile Beach The Westin Casuarina on Seven Mile beach is one of the top luxury accommodations on Grand Cayman, along with the Ritz Carlton. The imposing 5-story gray building may not look like a very tropical hotel, but it sits right on the sand, with superb access to sunbathing, snorkeling, and a variety of other water sports.
Hotels like this offer an opportunity for an island vacation with all the sophistication and grandeur of a big city venue. Outside you have a gorgeous and sprawling pool area with fun touches like a bridge and a swim-up bar. Inside, oriental rugs and traditional furniture set a slightly different tone.
The Westin features a top-notch spa, The Hibiscus, with a menu of services ranging from basic manicures and bronzing to caviar facials and four handed massage.
For golfers, a nearby 18-hole course provides another level of relaxation.
The hotel gives a nod to nearby Cuba with its restaurant Casa Havana, serving Latin dishes, and a popular Grand Lobby Bar featuring Cuban cigars and cocktails to be enjoyed with amazing sunset views.
Though the hotel staff stays busy with large group visits, one nice surprise is finding Tortuga Rum Cakes (made in the Cayman Islands) on your pillows each night. The rooms feature Heavenly beds and shower heads along with marble trim bathrooms, but be sure to ask for an ocean view when planning your holiday, since many rooms face the parking lot.
