I almost didn’t want to write this review to keep this “little secret” to myself, but recognition for this slice of paradise and its standout employees is necessary. You will realize you’re somewhere very special as soon as you drive up to this property. The grounds are meticulously maintained and absolutely stunning. You are greeted by friendly staff as soon as you arrive, new guests are given a short tour of property and if room isn’t ready there is an area to change. The Pool area is beautiful, but Seven Mile Beach takes the cake. It is GORGEOUS and the views of the Caribbean Sea from the oceanfront rooms are breathtaking. I will never get over waking up to that. Every single employee we encountered was kind and courteous. A few stood out for us going above and beyond their call of duty and made us feel like we were the only ones on property. Kelsey, (beach concierge) was fabulous! She was helpful, gave great recommendations for our stay and made sure we had everything we needed. Nick & Elton were great, also! Always greeted us with a friendly smile and made sure we were taken care of. The staff of on-site restaurant “Ave” were truly special. Not only do they offer an incredible breakfast, their staff is PHENOMENAL. Manager, Laszlo is warm, attentive and kind. He truly felt like a long lost friend. I wish I could start every day seeing his smile. Akram & Gerly were wonderful with our children. My boys really loved them. My oldest has autism and they always included him in conversation and made both children feel really important. They are such kind, beautiful souls. Sudan was another standout server who was super attentive and kind. I cannot say enough about the beauty of this resort and it’s staff. It truly is paradise. It was hands down the best vacation me and my husband have ever been on, even with two kids in tow! The perfect combination of activities and relaxation that check all the boxes.We cannot wait to return! I think it’s safe to say we found our forever vacation “home.” Until we meet again, Seafire.

We felt special starting right at check-in. Beautiful lobby, attentive staff and a welcome drink. We were upgraded to a larger K room with a balcony that had a beautiful view of the pool and beach. Complementary morning coffee and happy hour wine in the lobby area. Beach side food and drink service was great. We enjoyed both restaurants different evenings. We alternated breakfast between the restaurant and the market. All do the food and service were excellent. Housekeeping went above and beyond in keeping our room tidy both with regular service and the turn down service. The only negative - not enough hooks or rods in the bathroom to hang wet bathing suits as well as towels. Overall a wonderful place that we hope to get back to.

We were here 2 years ago and we came back again with 14 family members because it is wonderful. Impeccable service. Amazing property and grounds. Great restaurants. Special thanks to a few staff that made it even better; Richard (from Kenya) provided truly amazing and attentive service every single day out by the pool and at the beach, Kavita and Ina at the front desk, and really so many others but these three really stood out so thank you so much to them!

We spent 6 nights here in February for our second visit and the experience somehow topped the first. Check in was seamless. The staff was waiting on us, greeted us warmly, and upgraded us to a suite without us even asking. Huge win. And yes, they remembered us from last year, which set the tone for a great week. The room itself was outstanding. We used a suite upgrade and landed in a spacious one bedroom with a shaded north facing balcony. South facing rooms get sun most of the day, at least in winter. The suite also had a built in water filter, which made a big difference. Cayman tap water isn’t exactly appealing otherwise. The bed was super comfy, the shower was massive, and the view was unbeatable. Housekeeping was on point too, with friendly attendants cleaning twice a day. Brunch was a standout again. It’s not cheap, but the food, atmosphere, and service are worth every penny. Our waiter even recognized us from a year ago. We lingered for hours and never felt rushed. The location is great. Plenty of walking and biking trails, and you’re close to shops, restaurants, bars, and liquor stores. One minor gripe is that a nearby construction site has a narrow sidewalk that’s a little sketchy to walk past, especially at night. The beach was beautiful and well kept, and we spent a lot of time there. Nick, the chair attendant, was a highlight. Welcoming, helpful, and always ready with a local recommendation. We didn’t use the pool, but it looked clean and always had a good energy. The on site restaurant had solid food and a fun vibe. Happy hour was a nice touch, but fair warning: that wine pours strong. We also tried the spa for a pedicure. It was pricier than back home, but the experience was more upscale. Drink before the service, relaxing setting, and excellent service throughout. The only complaint, and it’s not really a complaint, is the price. It’s Cayman, and you’ll feel it in the final bill. I budget for it and think the quality justifies the cost, but I heard some guests grumbling when the Cayman dollar conversion hit them at checkout. Compared to last year, the crowd felt a little more chill. Possibly because a newer hotel nearby seems to be drawing a younger party crowd. Honestly, we preferred the vibe this time. All in all, this Kimpton continues to be one of our favorite escapes. Already looking forward to round three

My wife and I had a wonderful five nights day at the Kimpton Seafire resort. This is an elegant and very clean hotel with excellent service. Pool area is very nice plenty of sun loungers. The beach is definitely the highlight crystal clear, beautiful water, very calm with almost no waves it was so perfect that my wife who is generally afraid of the beach could not get out of the water. We have been to many top beaches and this is probably one of the best. Food was all very good, although breakfast was a bit expensive we thought. We had a nice private dinner on the beach to celebrate our 10 year anniversary and it was beautiful. Special thank you to Breath who gave us a tour of the hotel and went out of her way to get my wife a beach bag and brought it to the room without us asking because she knew how much my wife wanted one. Only slight negative is that the adult pool was a little small and not really separate from the main pool although the main pool was very nice and we enjoyed swimming and lounging there. Gym was kind of basic but not crowded and was adequate to keep up with my routine. As an aside we went to the sister hotel Indigo one night for dinner at their rooftop bar and restaurant and while the dinner at Pom Pom was a fantastic experience and more lively than most places on the island, we thought that staying at the Kimpton Sea fire resort was better than Indigo overall even though indigo is the newer hotel . Would highly recommend staying here - it exceeded our expectations
