Sixteen years ago Michael Ryan and his associates unleashed the potential of Seven Mile Beach by creatively combining a prime waterfront site with land stretching across to the North Sound. Updated zoning allowed for a design that was both beautiful and efficient. From this, The Ritz-Carlton Grand Cayman was born. This project raised the bar for the Cayman Islands and paved the way for luxury tourism, high-end oceanfront real estate, and the unmatched upscale lifestyle enjoyed today.

The project exceeded all expectations and The Ritz-Carlton Grand Cayman went on to win dozens of awards and dramatically increased the value of the real estate on Seven Mile Beach, from inception to opening, by over 300%.

The Ritz-Carlton Grand Cayman has, since its gala grand opening in 2006, been heralded as the best resort in the Caribbean, winning numerous awards including the Condè Nast #1 resort in the region three years in a row.

Comprising 365 keys and 69 private Residences the resort currently operates, with the addition of Exclusive Island and the first phase of the DeckHouses, as a 405 key property.
