Last year, my daughter and I visited the Cayman Islands on a press trip, and we had such a great time. I wouldn’t normally think of traveling to the Caribbean in the summer, but the rates are lower and the weather is just perfect. I definitely hope to return to the Caymans again soon – [...]
After swimming with the stingrays, snorkeling, riding a semi-submarine, seeking out blue iguanas, holding turtles, and learning about bugs, we were ready for a little relaxation on our last afternoon in the Cayman Islands.

Visitors arrive from a variety of different ways – tour boats, private boats, and jet skis, but we took a tour boat from Captain Melvin’s, [...]
Westin Hotels are one of my favorite hotel chains.
