My sisters and I were blessed that our parents, Marlan and Rosemary Bourns, shown in the photo, were original owners at Laguna Del Mar beginning the day it opened in 1989. We have enjoyed visiting Cayman with our children from the time they were very young. Now they are taking their own children to Cayman to enjoy amazing Seven Mile Beach. The beach in front of Laguna Del Mar is always nice, free from rocks or iron-shore. The waves are typically small, making it perfect for young and old children alike.
Laguna Del Mar encompasses a large property, which includes a pool, spa, outdoor barbecue area, gym and tennis court. A special feature is the lagoon in the center of the resort, with a little island that is perfect for picnics, which you can get to by walking over the bridge close to the swimming pool. The lagoon has many turtles, which love children to throw pieces of bread to them.
Laguna Del Mar is only 100 yards from the Marriott Beach Resort, which has several great restaurants, a dive company office where you can book diving, snorkeling and sailing trips. We highly recommend their Wave Rider Safari, because it is a perfect combination of riding on Wave Riders and swimming.
Laguna Del Mar is a 10 minute walk to Cayman Bay, which features many boutique shops, fine dining experiences, outstanding gelato and fountains the children love to run through. There is also a movie theater in Caymana Bay, but who would want to spend time watching a movie, when you can walk along world-famous Seven Mile Beach?
