The best family vacations have a little bit of everything. Mornings by the ocean, afternoons racing down a waterslide, plenty of pool time, easy places to grab a meal, and just enough room in the schedule for everyone to slow down and enjoy being at the beach.
Grande Cayman Resort brings all of that together on the north end of Myrtle Beach. With oceanfront accommodations, indoor and outdoor water amenities, on-site dining, Starbucks, and plenty of family-friendly fun, you can fill an entire day without ever leaving the resort. When you do feel like exploring, some of Myrtle Beach’s most popular attractions, restaurants, and entertainment are only a short drive away.
Here is what makes Grande Cayman Resort a fun and convenient home base for your next Myrtle Beach vacation.
Whether you are planning a quick getaway for two or bringing the whole family, Grande Cayman Resort offers a range of accommodations to choose from.
Options include standard rooms, efficiencies, one-bedroom suites, two-bedroom apartments, and spacious three-bedroom condos. Guests can choose from oceanfront, ocean-view, restricted oceanfront, and resort-view options depending on the room type.
Select accommodations include convenient features such as:
Much of the Main Building was also renovated in 2020, giving guests refreshed accommodations while maintaining the family-friendly resort experience Grande Cayman is known for. The separate Savoy Building was not included in that renovation.
At Grande Cayman, there are plenty of ways to go from a beach day to a pool day without slowing down the fun. The resort offers both indoor and outdoor water amenities, including an outdoor pool, an indoor heated pool, an indoor heated lazy river, an indoor kiddie pool, multiple hot tubs, the Silly Submarine kids’ water feature, and an outdoor waterslide.
Kids can make a beeline for the Silly Submarine or take another turn on the waterslide, while the whole family can slow things down with a float around the lazy river. When it is time to relax, there are pools and hot tubs for taking a break before everyone decides what to do next.
The indoor amenities are especially convenient when you need a break from the sun or the weather is not cooperating. And with the Atlantic Ocean right outside, there is always another option waiting.
Some vacation days are better when nobody has to agree on where to eat. Grande Cayman Resort offers several places to eat and drink right at the resort, beginning with Due South Restaurant. Start the morning with a breakfast buffet before heading to the beach, then come back later for dinner after a full day in the sun.
For something casual during the day, Turtle Bay Café serves sandwiches, salads, snacks, cocktails, and other beverages seasonally. It’s perfect for an afternoon of not wanting to leave the pool.
And yes, there is a Starbucks right on the property, too. That means morning coffee, breakfast, a midday bite, and dinner can all be part of your resort day. Sometimes the best vacation plan is the one that requires the least planning.
A family vacation gets easier when there is something for everyone. For the kids, that might mean the waterslide, Silly Submarine, kiddie pool, or another trip around the lazy river. Adults can grab a coffee, claim one of the many loungers on the oceanfront deck, and settle in for an afternoon with the Atlantic as the backdrop.
Beyond the water, guests can keep the fun going with life-size chess and checkers or a game of shuffleboard. Stop by the on-site gift shop for souvenirs, beach essentials, and vacation necessities, or take advantage of amenities such as the fitness center, business center, and coin-operated laundry facilities.
Planning a group gathering, celebration, or special occasion? Event space is also available at the resort, making Grande Cayman an option for trips that bring everyone together for more than just a beach vacation.
It is easy to create completely different vacation days without changing resorts. Spend one almost entirely beside the water, make the next a beach day, challenge the family to a game, then head out and explore Myrtle Beach when everyone is ready for something new.
Grande Cayman Resort’s north-end location gives you a relaxing place to come back to while keeping plenty of Myrtle Beach fun within easy reach.
When you are ready to explore, spend an evening at Pirates Voyage Dinner & Show, head to The Track for go-karts, rides, and arcade games, or make your way to Broadway at the Beach for shopping, dining, attractions, and entertainment. River City Cafe is also within walking distance of the resort when burgers and a casual meal are calling.
You can start the morning by the ocean, spend the afternoon exploring Myrtle Beach, and still make it back with plenty of time for another swim, dinner at Due South, or a relaxing evening at the resort. It is a location that makes it easy to enjoy more of Myrtle Beach while still leaving plenty of time to experience everything waiting for you at Grande Cayman.
Booking directly with Grande Cayman Resort comes with another vacation perk. Guests who book directly through the resort website or call center receive access to Brittain Rewards, which includes complimentary and discounted admission to participating Myrtle Beach attractions.
That gives families even more opportunities to experience Myrtle Beach while adding extra value to their stay. Plan an attraction-filled afternoon, discover somewhere new, or use the savings as an excuse to squeeze one more experience into the vacation before heading home.
A Myrtle Beach getaway does not need to be complicated to be memorable. Spend your days by the ocean, floating through the lazy river, racing down the waterslide, or exploring nearby attractions, then come back and do it all again.
Book your stay at Grande Cayman Resort and start planning a Myrtle Beach vacation the whole family will want to experience again.
