The soft, white sand and clear, blue ocean of Grand Cayman’s Seven Mile Beach are a gorgeous sight, and there’s no better place to experience that beauty than at the Ritz-Carlton Grand Cayman, a luxury beachfront resort that appeals to any age. We’ve been spending our spring break there for years. As adults, we love the resort’s utter beauty, the friendly, hands-on service, and the yummy dining (don’t skip the fish sandwich or piña colada at Bar Jack).
Our girls love all the resort activities on site, like Starfish Cay – a water playground with waterslides, water sprayers, and a zero-entry splash pad for the smallest guests. Parents with infants will love that each of the resort pools has a shallow water rim around it, where a baby can splash around while its parents relax nearby in the pool itself. Older kids will love the resort’s basketball and tennis courts, the water sports, like snorkeling and kayaking, and Wave Gave Room, which features Xbox, PlayStation 4, and other non-electronic games. There’s also nightly interactive fish feedings, nightly movies on the beach, a beautifully appointed kids club called Ambassadors of the Environment, and a gelato counter that stays open late. — Marissa Millman, Donuts at the Disco
