Just back from Morritts Grand
Per shaggy's suggestion I have copied this and posted my recent trip here as well as under Carribbean;
Just wanted to let everyone know that I did rent the scooter for two days from Scooters and Wheels in Goergetown and I survived. It was actually a lot of fun and gave me the opportunity to scout out the island before going to Morritts. I also checked out all of the timeshares in Grand Cayman, while I had the scooter. Here is a quick review of each.
1) Morrits Grand- Best unit we ever stayed in including Marriott Grand Vista. Huge 2BR 2bath unit with fantastic balcony facing the ocean. Unit was 1500 square feet and was in great condition.
2) Morrits Tortuga- Older units but refurbished due to Hurricane damage. One building currently with Ocean views and the rest with pool views. Nice resort and I would consider an exchange there.
3) Royal reef. I didn't see the units but walked by from beach and they did look very nice. Very well maintained resort but too quiet for me. Nothing going on at night except for beach bar. Barefoot man was off during the week we were there.
3) Grand Caymanian. Oustanding units comparable in quality to Morrits Grand but I didn't care for location with non swimable beach. Very Rocky beach but nice pools. Hard to find just follow signs to golf course and you eventually get there.
4) Plantation Village. Great location on seven mile beach and all units have been refurbished. I would accept trade for this older property just for the location.
5) Seven Mile beach resort. Older property didn't see any units and you need to go through public path to get to beach. spoke to some owners who love the property and go back every year. I didn't care for the beach location since you needed to go in front of condo unit to get to beach and it appeared that most beach chairs were for exclusive use of condo owners. This would probably be my last choice but I would still accept an exchange here.
In my opinion I liked the Morrits Grand the best and there was plenty to do at the resort or nearby to keep us busy all week. we went to beach every day except for the saturday the day before check out since it was the only day it was way too windy.
1)spent 1 day at turtle farm and then seven mile beach and georgetown.
2)Went to Rum point twice which was our favorite spot.
3)went to stingray city one afternoon after spending morning at rum point.
rest of the time just relaxed, went swimmong and snorkling right at the Morritts beach.
4) Went to Morritts barbQ's 3 nights and had a great time during entertainment by premier pool.
5) Went to Big Kahoonay comedy show right across the street from the Reef in the new shopping center and laughed so hard we almost cried. Great show!!!!
Had a great time and will write a detailed report as soon as I get the chance.
