I would like to schedule a trip to Grand Cayman in Feb. 2010. I am looking for a kid friendly place for a 3 and 7 year old. One adult diver, one adult non diver. Would prefer all inclusive because of the kids and who knows what they will or will not eat. Has to have a pool. Any suggestions?

Cayman Islands Budget accommodation
Posted: Wed April 1, 2009 10:28 AM UTC
Hi all,

Anyone know of some cheap accommodation on the Cayman islands. Budget hotel, hostel or guest house. Even a small appartment, anything will do.

We are on a trip around the world and have a 1 week stay planned in may.
Any ideas. Our budget lies around 30 euros per night but we could go up a bit.

Thanks in advance

Ben

Grand Cayman Getting Married In Cayman
Posted: Wed February 11, 2009 07:19 AM UTC
My fiance and I are looking to get married in the Cayman Islands. We are looking recommendations for a Wedding Planner? We heard a company call Inspirations is the best on the islands. Anyone else knows about them and what they do. We look at the website (inspirationsltd.com) and it looks pretty good. I have contacted them and they same pretty good but I am still a bit uneasy about planning long distance.

Grand Cayman Looking for temporary housing in Grand Cayman
Posted: Wed January 21, 2009 03:38 PM UTC
I am looking for a small apartment on Grand Cayman with a fast internet connection.
I would like to take a long quiet break where I program in peace in quiet.
I also train for triathlons.
If there is a large pool (25 yards or more) and a gym near by, that would be ideal.
I would like to rent the apartment for 3 months, and possibly more if I like the island.

Does anyone have any ideas?

George Town Snorkeling
Posted: Tue January 20, 2009 06:45 AM UTC
Hi there.

I'm not interested in swimming with stingrays. I've already seen them in the Virgin Islands, and they scare me. I would like to see some colorful tropical fish and some living coral. (Previous snokeling in VI had only dead coral.)

Is there any of that near George Town, CI?

Grand Cayman Embroidered Ladies Blouses
Posted: Sat January 3, 2009 08:04 PM UTC
Hi,
I will be in the Grand Caymans on January 13, 2009. I am interested in purchasing some embroidered ladies blouses. The ones I want are usually white with very vibrant colorful embroidery on them. Ususally scenes with people and animals. I would concider them to be casual. I have been told that what I am looking for might be found in South America. Do you know of any shops that I might check out while on the Island that migh offer them for sale? Also, I am interested in a Used Book Store or a source to purchase The Little Golden Books in foreign languages.

Thanks,

My fiance' and I will be staying at the Grand Caymanian Oct. 4th. I will need to attend to some work via internet while I'm there. Does this resort offer wireless internet & if so, is there a fee?

Also, how much is the boat trip from the Grand Caymanian dock to Stingray City & the reef?

Cayman Islands Visits over 30 days in length - UK citizen
Posted: Thu September 18, 2008 10:48 AM UTC
Hi there,

I wondered if you could help me figure something out.

I'm a UK citizen and want to visit the Cayman Islands for 3 months, to give living there a test-drive until I purchase a property and qualify for residency.

However, all the information I'm seeing online leads me to believe I can only stay for 30 days at a time. Is there any way to get a 3 month stay vs. a short 30 days?

Does anyone know the procedure for a British national?

Thanks! Earl

Grand Cayman HELP!!! Leaving for Cruise on Saturday
Posted: Mon September 8, 2008 06:04 PM UTC
Hi everyone...

I am taking a cruise (1st caribbean cruise) with my husband and we are leaving on Saturday. Grand Cayman is one of the stops that we will be making and I am in need of serious help (lol) of things to do on the island. Grand Cayman is a place that I have always wanted to visit and I want to make sure I make the most out of the day! We arrive at 8AM and leave at 4PM. I am thinking about renting a car...good idea? If so, any places that we MUST visit besides 7 mile beach (any spot that better on the beach?)? Also, if anyone can recommend places to eat for lunch.

Thank you for your help!!!

Cayman Islands beach in Grand Cayman
Posted: Mon August 11, 2008 05:45 PM UTC
We are taking my 85-year-old mother-in-law on a cruise this winter. She wants to go to the beach when we stop at Grand Cayman. Can anybody recommend a beach that's easy to get to where we can rent beach chairs and buy beverages? Lunch? It would be a nice bonus for me if there was a good spot to snorkel nearby. We accept having to pay a moderate admission charge.

I've heard that there are a couple of places that get real crowded when the cruise ships are in port. Any not-quite-so-well-known spots? We're going to be taking a cab, so please no 50 mile drives. Mom-in-law is ambulatory, but has bad knees, so also no long trails.

Thanking you in advance

I will be in Grand Cayman for about a week. Are there any secluded beaches where I can watch the sunrise and be alone with my girlfriend, or are all the beaches crowded like 7 Mile Beach?

Grand Cayman grand cayman buses
Posted: Tue June 3, 2008 02:42 PM UTC
My son and I will be arriving about 4 hours apart. Are there buses at the airpot to take you to seven mile beach hotels. I heard that the cab fare to go just about 5 miles will run about $30.00. I would hate to spend that much money and also have him spend that much money if there is an alternative means of transportation. Thanks

Are there any buses at the airport when the planes arrive to take you to your hotel or do you have to take a cab? I heard the cabs cost $35.00 to go to 7 mile beach. This will be my first time to Grand Cayman.

Grand Cayman Where to stay?
Posted: Wed May 14, 2008 12:07 PM UTC
My husband and I are planning a first time trip to Cayman Island. Need a clean, somewhat secluded hotel. We would like to just relax on beach, walk, read, etc...Usually stay in Marriotts, but thought it maybe to busy. Are hoping to go in the next few weeks. Price is not most important if it is where we want to stay. Any secluded suggestions?

I'll be in Grand Cayman next week, already dreading the need to hit the market vs. the beach first thing, as we are in a condo and will be cooking in quite a bit. Has anyone tried getting groceries pre-ordered and delivered to the condo ahead of time? Has anyone found a reliable services that we might use? I have tried asking the condo management but they never replied.

Grand Cayman How to get to Hell by bus
Posted: Wed April 9, 2008 10:35 PM UTC
Hello,
Will be visiting Grand Cayman in January 2009 and would like to know how to get to hell by bus. What bus number and route? I'm guessing we would start from the library.

Also, it is possible to buy an all day bus ticket or must you pay per ride? Thinking about using the bus service as a cheap means of seeing the area but would like to be able to get off and on whenever I'd like.

Thanks for any info,
Shara

Cayman Islands Shore snorkeling sites by car?
Posted: Sun February 24, 2008 04:27 PM UTC
My Husband and I are going to Grand Cayman for the first time in August and would like to know about areas around Cayman that are a must see for snorkeling. And any trips by boat that would be worth while, besides Stingray city that we plan on doing.

Also this will be our first time driving on the on the left side of the road, and was wondering if its hard to get used to? And what company you would recommend to rent from.

Thanks in advance, Diane

George Town A First Visit to Georgetown
Posted: Tue February 19, 2008 07:47 PM UTC
Hello

I'm afraid that we'll be arriving (hopefully - we have 'been' to Grand Cayman twice but not been allowed to land. Third time lucky?!) by cruise ship in a week's time.

Is there anyone out there who could suggest an interesting route around Geogetown? We are interested in architecture and just trying to soak up a feel of a town.

We also enjoy walking/hiking and cycling.

Suggestions very welcome.

Many thanks

Grand Cayman Transportation fromt eh Airport to Morritt's
Posted: Sat January 12, 2008 04:26 AM UTC
Hi everyone-

My mom and I and I are arriving at the GCM airport 4 hrs apart next Saturday evening, and our friends are renting a car the next day so we don't want to rent a car.

We'd like to get to our beds at Morritt's Tortga Club somehow, without breaking the bank.

We've called McCurey's shuttle and Conmac, and both are booked, and we've heard cab fare is pretty outrageous.

Anybody have any ideas? Don't think my mom is up for hitching.
