Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman

The terraced buildings of this five-star resort step down to the sands of Seven Mile Beach, its twin wings sheltering a freeform pool edged with cabanas and featuring the Starfish Cay water park. The recently renovated resort is home to the out-of-this-world Blue by Eric Ripert, and features spacious top-floor Seven Seas Suites among its accommodations. It’s also home to a Greg Norman design that’s easily the best nine-hole golf course in the Caribbean.
