Kimpton Seafire Resort + Spa

We stayed here for our 10 yr wedding anniversary trip. It was the most amazing week. Sept is off season so it wasn’t busy at all. We had a premium ocean view room and it was gorgeous! This was by far our favorite resort and we have traveled to many places around the islands. The staff was so kind and helpful. Special shout out to Tamoy (spelling?). She was a server by the pool with the kindest spirit. Made our trip so special.

This was our first stay at Kimpton Seafire in all our trips to Grand Cayman. We've heard so much about this resort and were very excited for our stay but also had high expectations given the price and all the great reviews. So imagine our disappointment when we first arrived at the hotel in pouring rain and the none of the 4 valet attendants present thought to offer us an umbrella, even as I got out of the passenger's side of my car to get my daughter out the back seat. We were soaked. One valet did eventually offer an umbrella-not to us, but to an existing guest who was coming back from a run. And when that guest declined, the valet attendant simply folded the umbrella back up instead of offering it to us. It seems like such a small gesture to complain about but this is the level of service I would expect from a luxury resort. I will say though that the evening valet are much kinder and more attentive in comparison every time we had to leave the resort. Thankfully, everything thereafter was nothing short of amazing. We were assigned a beautiful room with sweet treats and a personalized note to celebrate my husband's birthday, which was a nice touch. All the other staff we encountered were warm and friendly from the restaurant, the pool and the beach. By the next day, most of them greeted us by our last name, which is impressive for such a big resort. The ladies at the host stand for the main restaurant were always so kind. Our servers at Ave, Rhea and Alan were wonderful during dinner service. As was Girlie and Danilo during breakfast. The beach attendants were also very nice. Nick, Mo and Louis always helped to set us up. Food and drink service at the beach was timely. The grounds are impeccable and very well maintained. Our daughter very much enjoyed the splashpad/mini waterpark, although it could use a little refreshing. There are areas in the soft landing pads with green mildew on them. We enjoyed the happy hour in the evenings, which also had child-friendly offerings. Sometimes they would come around to offer frozen popsicles and frozen grapes in the pool/beach area. We missed it one time and Elianne from the pool went out of her way to bring some out for our daughter. Overall we had an amazing stay. Thankfully the little mishap at the beginning of our trip did not at all reflect our overall experience. If I could make one suggestion, it would be to have no-smoking policy or at least a designated smoking area, especially since Kimpton Seafire is such a family-friendly resort. They have this policy in place at the Ritz in Aruba which is another family-friendly resort and it just makes so much sense. There was a man at the beach who smoked a cigar at length everyday and it wasn’t very pleasant to be around as the wind carried the odor further. Otherwise, we had a fantastic time and will absolutely be coming back to Kimpton Seafire for future trips to Grand Cayman!

We arrived at the Seafire Kimpton mid morning and the first impressions were amazing. FORBES 5 star one of the finest five star properties 2026 was shown as you enter the grand reception (Where social hour is hosted of an evening, more on that later) which off to the side has a beautiful "Library by the sea" room were you can get cocktails and the room is tastefully decorated with historic photos of the island including one of the late majesty the Queen when she visited in 1983 and also when concorde landed there in 1984. We were checked into the most amazing one bedroom premium suite with ocean view. From the beautiful unspoilt views to the beach sea and pool from the wrap around balcony, to the huge lounge area with sofa and 6 seat dining table to fully functioning kitchen (not that we cooked 😀) everything about this Suite was 1st class and shows why the Kimpton is in the Forbes guide. We arrived on a sunday and we luckily from a recommendation had booked the sunday bottomless brunch, (make sure you book as this gets full well in advance) we were looked after by Coleen who was amazing and couldn't do enough for us. The food is buffet style but imagine a buffet on steroids this was by far the best quality of buffet i have ever had. Fresh oysters, crab, prawns, sushi and the most delicate sashimi fish i have ever tried. The rest of the buffet was equally 5 star with short rib of beef, pork belly or spiced roast chicken which was all amazing. After a few hours in the sun around the beautiful pool, so many beds to choose from both around the pool or down by the stunning white beach, we then had Social hour (5pm-6pm) were guests are invited to the lobby for complimentary wine and nibbles and you can mingle or just relax and enjoy the surroundings and wine. There is some great snorkeling right off the beach and equipment can be obtained free of charge from the beach water sports area. Lastly we ate at the beach bar just a 2 min walk along the beach (this is part of the indigo hotel) but open to the public very chilled vibe with great music and food. I would highly recommend the yellow fin tuna from the evening meal (this in my top 5 meals ever) the tuna just melted and was stunning. We came back the next day for lunch and dined again the staff and setting are amazing. I cannot recommend the seafire kimpton high enough this is five star on another level. Thankyou for looking after us so much Can't wait to be back.

First off I must say I have been going to Grand Cayman for over 20 years. This is our first time staying at the Kimpton and wow I was absolutely blown away by the most amazing service I have received! From the moment you arrive, the doorman are kind, happy and helpful, and it feels genuine. The front desk was also kind. We were immediately able to have our room be ready and pleasantly surprised to have an upgrade to the ocean view room, which was wonderful the room was spacious. The view was beautiful. Once arriving down to the beach the amenities were endless paddle boarding, snorkeling small sailboats kayaks Floaties that is all available to you with the resort fee! Our first day we were greeted by Louis he set us up at the beach and was so kind and truly I felt specia! So for the rest of the day, we enjoyed swimming snorkeling, relaxing. We also had yummy food and drinks served by Paula who couldn’t have been sweeter! Kasan was there to help with whatever we may needed of beach services on our first day! That evening we took a taxi into town for dinner. The next morning we met up with Louise again at the beach and he set us up with a cabana and it was just amazing and the services were wonderful. We also got to meet Nick and he helped us at the beach also Gabriel and once again Paola was there to serve drinks and there was also a sweet gal named Keke who would bring by frozen fruity pops and fresh fruit throughout the day. She was there most every day with a smile on her face so nice!! Several days Jimbo handled all our beach needs!! not once did we need for anything honestly exceptional services at the beach! Other mentions at the beach bar there was Gerald and he made exceptional cocktails! My daughter and I also did spa treatments that were amazing and the staff in the Spa was also very kind. Some nice touches that I feel the hotel provides is there is water stations everywhere. Serve house coffee in the lobby every morning from 6 to 10 AM. In the evening there is a wine and appetizer hour, which we did not take advantage of, but I did the hotel is beautiful. There are plenty of places to relax read a book and have some quiet time. Each morning there exercise classes outside. I was not there with young children, but if you did have children, there were several areas for them to enjoy truly a wonderful beach vacation and I can’t wait to go back!

I have been there twice so far with my 4 kids, booking my third time soon! Love this hotel, great service, house keeping, and environment for families! Highly recommended!
