Pirates Point Resort, Ltd
PRICE:
Frommer's Highly Recommended
For watersports or just relaxing, this resort near West End Point offers a family environment with gourmet cuisine, although it's a notch down from Little Cayman Beach Resort. The place has remodeled rooms, a non-air-conditioned family cottage with two large rooms, and four seaside cottages, with balconies overlooking Preston Bay. The bathrooms are well maintained, with shower stalls. The resort's packages include accommodations, three meals a day with appropriate wines and all alcoholic beverages, and two-tank boat dives daily, featuring tours of the Bloody Bay Wall and Jackson Reef. Other activities include snorkeling, bird-watching, and exploring. The food is excellent. The owner and manager, Texas-born Gladys Howard, is an award-winning cookbook author and a graduate of Cordon Bleu in Paris. She has studied with such stars as the late Julia Child, Jacques Pepin, and James Beard. She uses fresh fruits and vegetables grown locally, as well as local seafood.
