Vida Cayman Luxury Boutique Eco Hotel

We just returned from a relaxing week at Vida. This boutique hotel exceeded our expectations. Natalia and all of the staff went above and beyond in the service they provided. Our room was spotless. The kitchen was well-equipped, the spa-like bathroom had everything we needed. We enjoyed the patio in the morning and evening, so peaceful and private. Lunch each day at Nourish was delicious. So many healthy choices and wonderful flavours. We spent most afternoons either by the beautiful pool or the private beach. We look forward to returning some day!

Wanting to be somewhere that was close enough to island activities, but removed enough to be quiet, serene, and peaceful, Vida turned out to be the perfect place. The entire experience was exceptional. The spectacular ocean views, the warmth and friendliness of everyone on the hotel staff and in the restaurant, the amenities offered, and the magnificent quiet of the neighborhood (and the other guests) made this trip exactly what was needed. It was better than might have been imagined. I definitely recommend this charming boutique hotel.

How this property gets such consistently high reviews is odd. I read as many reviews as possible and never heard the truth. Here goes. Maybe listening to wild roaming roosters on the property and the immediate area all day and ALL night doesn't bother some people, but, if it does, I would choose different lodging. It is clean, neat, the staff is super nice and helpful, but, holy moly! I was booked for five nights and left after 3, even after trying their provided earplugs. The staff said they never have had complaints about the roosters, however they provide earplugs in all the rooms? Hard to believe. Also, don't imagine being IN the ocean as there is only a tiny bit of rocky beach (see pic) and you cannot wade into the water due to the rocks in and along the beach line. My balcony door was not lockable as there was a metal piece over the lock mechanism and no companion lock receptacle on the door frame for the lock to secure to (see pic). They did try to accommodate the rooster problem by moving me to a higher floor and much nicer room, but the rascals still screamed all night at a volume that would wake the dead. I had been signed up for the yoga, etc. classes but after getting no sleep, I did not feel like attending them and listening to more crowing as the yoga room is open to the sea air...and roosters. The property also felt very confining, closely surrounded by vegetation, and it has a very small pool. The first floor of rooms do not have a view of anything but the jungle canopy. The second room they moved me to on floor 4 had a view of the water, but again, I couldn't be out on the balcony one minute without music earbuds at full volume to drown out the crowing. They were very nice to refund me one night's stay. It's a tragic problem that cannot be avoided unless the roosters get eradicated, such a sweet property and sweet staff. So if you are wanting a relaxing, quiet vacation, I hope you are hard of hearing or you like roosters screaming all the time.

I just wanted to express my deepest gratitude to Natalia and so many of the other staff we interacted with during our weekend stay. Edward, Camille, housekeeping and the restaurant team were all extremely customer focused and made our time incredibly special in celebrating my birthday. Natalia in particular was outstanding and so accommodating to us especially in facilitating the beautiful penthouse suite. We just wanted to thank all of you again for the hospitality, recommendations and overall friendly welcoming we experienced. Thanks for being a blessing to us!

Vida Cayman is AMAZING. Everything was taken care of for us in a thoughtful and individualized way. Food is healthy and delicious - the dining area feels like home with warm greetings and care. Exercise classes that were perfect for 15 to 60 year olds. Adventures available for everyone: kite surfing, foiling, hikes, snorkeling, 7 mile beach social life, bike rides. The self-care spa offerings were some of the best I have ever had. Reiki, Massage, Facials, Nutrition Planning, Mobility assessment.... All of it was superb. We 100% recommend Vida Cayman to anyone wanting to spend a week of self care and adventuring.

This hotel is brand new and exceeded our expectations. Perfect in all senses. The location is ideal in a tranquil part of the island away from all the noise and very nice and secluded beaches nearby. The service is exemplary with the manager Natalia and Oliver staff always looking for opportunities to make sure our stay was fantastic. The room was perfect and always spotless with excellent housekeeping. The restaurant Nourish was amazing. The food was always fresh and delicious. We can’t wait to come back!
