The diving is great and the dive crew is generally very nice, helpful, and experienced. It’s hard to imagine better diving anywhere. The food is very good and there’s plenty of it at the three tightly-scheduled meal times. That’s the good part. Now for the bad part. The accommodations are terrible. The beds have uncomfortable mattresses with hard, flattened pillows. Paint is peeling, the showers leak, floor tiles are chipped and missing, doors and dresser drawers are warped so they no longer close, lampshades are worn and burnt, and wall fixtures are known to fall off. Perhaps worst, there’s no privacy as the windows facing out to the pathways have open shutters or translucent shades that become nearly transparent at night – when you want privacy most. The surrounding beach and resort area have some trash and building materials strewn about. The clubhouse has a friendly and eccentric atmosphere but is also dusty with cobwebs. Sand fleas invested the place. I guess there’s not much you can do about them on the beaches, but they were in the buildings, too, including our bed, leaving red itchy bumps for days after we departed. Other than diving there’s almost nothing to do. You can join the owner, Gladys, in her nightly game of dominoes. Other games are in bad shape with pieces missing or items unusable. Bicycles for visitor use are kept outside all year round where they have rusted to the point of nearly being unusable and have been known to break down. The gift shop, surprisingly, contains no aloe, aspirin, or toiletries. Souvenirs like t-shirts cost nearly double what they do on Grand Cayman. Almost everything costs extra at Pirate’s Point and the cost of renting scuba equipment for the week is about 70% of the purchase price for brand new equipment. Finally, don’t think that the run-down condition of the place is unavoidable due to salty air or excessive heat, as you will be told by the staff. Gladys lives next door in one of the biggest, most pristine, beautifully decorated houses you’ll find anywhere. In my opinion, you can find similarly great diving and better accommodations for the same price, or great diving and equivalent accommodations for much less money elsewhere.

Great all inclusive, Lots of privacy & seclusion. Great food and service. BEST on Little Cayman. Thanks!
