Botanica - Luxury Cottages

We’ve looked at this property to vacation at for almost 2 years. Never could make the timing work (either no availability or just didn’t fit our schedule). We decided last November 2024 to make it work. And very glad we did. I can’t say enough about the property nor its staff. Everyone was just a pleasure to interact with and everyone always wanted to know how our experience could be enhanced. The star of the team was Kim. Prior to arriving we had a multitude of questions and probably sent her a dozen emails. Each time she answered thoroughly and timely. Each of our requests were met with open arms. Upon arrival Kim and Chad met us at the cottage. Gave us a tour of the cottage and grounds. Explaining every unique facet from operating the lighting and fans to showing us the cooler, beach chairs, umbrellas, and other accoutrements and features on the property available for our use. The shuttle and its driver was so accommodating and available. Always smiling. The young ladies of housekeeping always had a smile and were very thorough going about their duties. Our unit was impeccable. (We always bring cleaning wipes and did so this time. We always wipe out drawers and wipe down countertops, door handles, etc. We did so at Botanica and our wipes didn’t pick up a speck of dirt or grime.) Excellent location. Public beach within a 3 minute shuttle ride. Restaurants and other dining within minutes. Would definitely recommend a rental vehicle. Just to get around to see what an amazing place Grand Cayman truly is. We learned a phrase that is truly indicative of who these great people who call themselves Caymnian are…”Cayman Kind”. And no matter who we met or interacted with, all who call The Caymans home truly exhibit “Cayman Kindness”. We’ve vacationed the world. Been to more than 27 Caribbean island nations. I consider myself somewhat of a discerning traveler. And I can say it’s really difficult to think of an accommodation and its staff better anywhere than Botanica Cayman. We will be back!

This is the third time that our family has visited and stayed at Botanica Cottages and each and every time we are blown away by how stunning and gorgeous the property is, how incredibly clean and well maintained they are, and how thoughtful and intentionally planned every inch of the property and cottages are planned. Kim, Linn + the rest of the staff are so helpful and make our family feel like we are home every time we come and visit. I truly have never stayed anywhere where when I step foot inside the doors that I feel like I'm staying somewhere that is an extension of being at home, but this is what it feels like every time we stay at Botanica. Our family cannot wait for our next trip back !

Spent a week here for our honeymoon and we have zero complaints! Did not want to leave it was so amazing! They provided everything you could possibly need for the week: stocked freezer with ice, a cooler, beach towels, beach chairs, beach umbrella and blanket, washer and dryer, cleaning supplies. The pool was so relaxing and peaceful to unwind after a long beach day. Location is good, I would definitely recommend having a rental car, we did and most things were a 4-15 min drive away. Also, the body wash, shampoo and conditioner provided are to die for, already ordered some for our house :) ready to go back!

Our Botanica cottage was absolutely wonderful. As a couple we were in the smallest one which, for us, was spacious and extremely well equipped. It had all we needed for daily living and for self catering, and everything for a good beach experience - towels, beach chairs, parasol, cool box, beach bag, outdoor 'crockery' and cutlery, snorkels & masks, bicycles etc. The bed was really comfortable. Linn and Kim looked after us extremely well and dealt with any questions or needs we had without delay. Supermarkets are near by - a few minutes drive - and the beach is also nearby, with good recommendations from Botanica as to the quiet bits to go to. The car was definitely useful and probably necessary if you want to food shop and go around the island and the beaches every day. The pool at Botanica was lovely and the mix of people / families at the cottages meant that there was usually a time in the day that we could all get the pool to ourselves. We cannot recommend Botanica cottages highly enough.

This place is amazing! If you like to be secluded and left alone, this place is for you. They have thought of everything that you could possibly need. While it’s not directly on the water, the road to cross is pretty easy. We rarely saw anyone else staying there, which was great for us. They are around if you need anything, too. Try the charcuterie board, it was delicious! Everything was very modern and clean! Tons of outlets for charging if needed. This is the only place we would stay, no question. Washer and dryer was a huge plus, as well as the cookware, stove, oven and dishwasher to cook some meals on our own.

The Botanica Cottages are a traveler's gem in Grand Cayman! My family and I stayed there for over a week and were so happy with our stay. The Queen Cottage had everything we needed and was impeccably clean. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to cook, if you wish. The beds have luxurious linens! The living room sofa converts to a very comfortable bed for kids. There is a private patio out back and an outdoor shower to use after swimming. Botanica provides everything you need to hang out at the beach, including towels, umbrella, chairs, cooler, etc. We will certainly be back! Thank you!
