Is Cayman Island Expensive?
Some people say it is expensive in Cayman, and it certainly can be. Especially if you stay at 7 mile beach, where it is all tourists. All of the restaurants I’ve been to on 7MB are very expensive — some outrageously so. They don’t have to be reasonably priced — where else would the tourists go? Tourists do not really “price shop” for meals. Our Cayman villa rentals are in the East End, which is the quiet & peaceful side of the island. We have lots of great restaurants — and reasonable prices. The reason prices are reasonable (and food good) is that they have to rely on repeat business. We have very casual places, like Vivienne’s Kitchen, 5 minutes from our villas, with picnic tables overlooking the ocean, to moderately priced “Portofino’s Italian & Seafood Restaurant” with a fabulous all-you-can-eat Sunday brunch [11:30 – 3:00 p.m. ] for $18.95 (children 1/2 price). There are several others nearby too. You will be given a list of the local restaurants when you make a booking.
