Kimpton Seafire Resort + Spa, located on Grand Cayman’s famed Seven Mile Beach, is Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants’ first luxury resort outside the US. As the first new hotel built on Grand Cayman in over a decade, it marks a significant step for Kimpton in the international resort market. Blending traditional Caymanian culture with modern amenities and sophisticated design, the resort offers guests an unparalleled luxury experience.
The open-air design and breathtaking ocean views at Kimpton Seafire Resort + Spa allow guests to fully embrace the beauty of Caribbean sunsets. Elevated 24 feet above sea level, most of the 266 guest rooms feature private balconies showcasing spectacular views of the beach, turquoise pools, and lush landscaping. Three standalone beachfront bungalows with one- or two-bedroom loft-style layouts, premium amenities, and exclusive ocean views provide ultimate privacy and relaxation.
From the signature Ave restaurant to the beachfront Coccoloba bar, the resort’s three dining venues, overseen by Chef Massimo De Francesca, utilize fresh, local ingredients to create diverse and enticing menus. The nine-seat chef’s counter at Avecita, featuring a wood-fired grill and plancha, is a must-try for culinary enthusiasts. Two poolside bars offering creative cocktails and light bites cater to guests’ every whim.
Kimpton Seafire Resort + Spa boasts exceptional indoor and outdoor event spaces, including the exquisitely designed 7,076-square-foot Aurea Ballroom, the 10th-floor Presidential Suite overlooking the Caribbean Sea, and the expansive Seabridge Green lawn for daytime or evening events by the sea. The resort’s culinary team crafts Cayman-inspired menus using sustainable, locally sourced ingredients, paired with fine wines and handcrafted cocktails.
The 8,500-square-foot spa features seven treatment rooms offering a full range of relaxation services, including a unique Hammam Turkish bath. A state-of-the-art 1,770-square-foot fitness center and weekly group fitness classes help guests maintain their wellness routines. Camp Seafire, with its interactive programming for children aged 4-12, provides a safe and enriching environment for younger guests.
Kimpton Seafire Resort + Spa, along with the adjacent 62 residential units at The Residences at Seafire, is the first resort and residential development by Dart Real Estate, in collaboration with Dart Development. The project is a culmination of the vision of Dayna Lee and Ted Berner of Powerstrip Studio in Los Angeles, Mark Sopp of SB Architects in San Francisco, and Craig Stoner of EDSA, along with Ave Bradley, Kimpton’s Global Senior Vice President of Design & Creative Director. Targeting LEED® Silver certification, the resort demonstrates a commitment to recycled materials, energy efficiency, and respect for the natural environment.
