Hi all,
I am thinking of booking 5 nights in Grand Cayman Islands starting Dec 7. I am thinking of staying at the Westin on 7 mile beach. Any advice?
I picked Dec 7 since hurricane season ends Dec 1. I selected Westin over Marriot since reviews say the beach is wider/nicer and they should be done with a nice renovation. I considered a condo but I like the pool, do not plan to cook and cost-wise it is actually cheaper for 7 mile beach.
Some items to potentially comment on:
- Will beach water be warm beginning of Dec? Is that a good time to go?
- Seems like relatively low cost - is now the time to book for Dec?
- Looks like I can rent a car for only $9/day. Seems like the way to go since a taxi to/from the airport alone will almost pay for itself
- Looks like Stingray City is a must do - anything else? Is Turtle Center, Botanic Park or Dolphin Discovery worthwhile?
- Any other comments?
TIA.
