To My Amazing Parents: Grand Cayman is the Perfect Spot for Our Summer Vacation

You've been working hard and I've been doing so well in school, that we all deserve a fun family vacation this summer. And, I've found the perfect spot with entertaining (and educational!) programs and events – the town center of Camana Bay in tropical Grand Cayman.

The 650-acre property has tons of space for me to run and play, with secluded gardens for a family picnic, a vast lawn with moonlit movies and live music, and an interactive fountain that I promise will keep me busy splashing for hours while you enjoy some of Grand Cayman's best shopping or simply relaxing. We can even stay through the evening and have dinner at Abacus for a healthy farm-to-table experience, at Mizu Asian Bistro + Bar, where we'll laugh at the chef's tricks at the only waterfront teppanyaki grill in the Caribbean, or at Bon Vivant, where we can take a hands-on cooking class and enjoy a meal together. I'll have a scoop of gelato from Gelato & Co. afterwards, but I'll be so tired from the day's excitement that I promise the sugar won't keep me awake!

For those times when I need a break from the sun, we can climb the sheltered Observation Tower and play I Spy while exploring the tiled mosaic of the sea. Camana Bay has all sorts of fun things to do including organized programs like a family astronomy class that teaches about the constellations visible from Grand Cayman. I can also get to know local or visiting kids during craft or story time at Books & Books, or by spending the afternoon at Starfish Village, an innovative children's enrichment center with drop-in hours, so you can go enjoy more adult activities.

The spa at the new Kimpton Seafire Resort & Spa would be perfect for you. It's Grand Cayman's first new resort in more than 10 years, and is just up the road from Camana Bay. They have lots of family-friendly offerings that would make it a great place to stay during our trip, like a waterfront kids' facility, family pool and a multi-use trail for after-dinner walks and bike rides. You'll love it so much you might even think about buying one of the neighboring Residences at Seafire – the luxury residences set along Seven Mile Beach would be a great place for us to host friends and family who join our Grand Cayman vacations.

The Farmers & Artisans Market at Camana Bay is also right up your alley, with locally made goods and produce for sale along Camana Bay's Paseo. The Flavour Tour incorporates seasonal produce found at the market in a progressive-style dining experience with paired cocktails.

Grand Cayman would be perfect for our long family trip this summer, but if you can't get away from work that long, I'd be happy going for a long weekend too – it's easy with direct flights from home!

We don't have to decide on all of this now, look up more at camanabay.com and let's talk about it tonight at the dinner table!

Always,
Me
