Vida Cayman Luxury Boutique Eco Hotel

My family and I decided to head to Grand Cayman for a Thanksgiving getaway, and Vida did not disappoint. We rented the three bedroom luxury penthouse, which was wonderfully appointed and had everything we could have needed. The hotel is new and everything is top-of-the-line, which was great. The rooms were beautiful and comfortable, and the view was amazing. The staff at Vida was top-notch, most notably the manager Natalia, who was warm, friendly, and checked up on us often to ensure that our experience was excellent (and it was)! We enjoyed our daily breakfasts at Nourish, and had some wonderful in-room champagne as well. The staff at Vida was wonderfully accommodating and helped us plan excursions, make bookings, and made several recommendations. The hotel had a few chairs for beach use - the beach at the hotel may not be the best for "beach sitting" but the staff found us a great beach location and drove us there (with the chairs, and a snack!), which was greatly appreciated and lovely. There are several beautiful beaches nearby, including Seven Mile Beach, which is just a short drive and has several public beaches (some of which have chairs/umbrellas to rent). Vida is close to Barkers National Park and a few restaurants, but we also went to George Town for several meals. During our stay, we did rent a car, which I would recommend, as it makes it easier to get around the island based on the location of Vida. We took the staff up on some of their recommendations, including a visit to Stingray City, Starfish Point, and the Bio Bay, and enjoyed a kayak tour through the mangroves in addition to some beach relaxation and a visit to the botanic gardens. The experience at Vida was everything we could have asked for and more. I would definitely recommend staying at Vida to anyone considering!

I stayed in Vida for 2 nights with my husband in September. I have only positive things to say - firstly the room is incredible and unmatched by any other hotels I have stayed in. The kitchen is fully self-contained (cooking utensils, smoothie maker, coffee machine - basically everything you could need or want). The kitchen & lounge area was separate to the bedroom, which was extremely spacious with a lovely en-suite (shower and separate bath). The view from the balcony is stunning and thanks to the yoga matts which are provided, the balcony quicky became my favourite spot for sunrise yoga! There is also a fabulous gym, equipped with cardio machine, squat rack and free weights. The staff were super friendly and willing to help. We had a phone in our room so we could message the front desk when we needed anything and they even made dinner reservations on our behalf. We also got the 'honeymoon' treatment after putting this down as the reason for our stay in the hotel. I won't ruin any surprises but the hotel really went the extra mile and pulled out all the stops to make the occasion even more special. I would highly recommend Vida to anyone who is coming to Cayman for a holiday, or even residents looking for a getaway.

A group of 6 stayed for a night to celebrate a friend about to have a baby! They spoiled us and made us feel so comfortable and welcome. Being 8 months pregnant is no joke - we felt relaxed in the serenity of Vida’s surroundings and enjoyed the delicious food from Nourish downstairs. The Babymoon was a surprise, and Natalia and Rebecca helped us pull it off without a hitch. As well, the gentle Sunday morning yoga was such a great way to end our amazing experience! Thank you to the Vida team and Chef Mo for the wonderful stay.
