We recently returned from two weeks on Grand Cayman Island instead of our usual two weeks at our time share, OBBR, in Sint Maarten. We stayed on Seven Mile Beach at the Comfort Suites. Very disappointed in Grand Cayman and the Seven Mile Beach. The beach lounges were VERY close together, much more so than Dawn and Orient beaches. And it wasn’t particular to the beach in front of the Comfort Suites, it was the same next next door at the Marriott and as far down the beach as we could see.

Because the Cayman Islands are closer to North America than are the Leeward and Windward Islands, it was cold and very windy the first week of our vacation because of how cold it was up north. Too cold and windy to go on the beach. Another reason (one of many) to vacation in Sint Maarten.

Comfort Suites was a very nice place to stay with a great buffet breakfast and 24 hour-day-coffee included in the cost. However, we paid almost twice as much to stay there compared to the costs, including maintenance fees, at our time share and did not have a kitchen. But all of Grand Cayman is expensive. We were conveniently located for short walks to many restaurants. Coconut Joe’s was our favorite.

We won’t return but will be back to OBBR next year.
