The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman has announced the reopening of The Spa following a complete transformation of its physical space and treatment offerings. Designed by Champalimaud Design, the newly reimagined spa pays homage to Cayman’s land, sea, and community through artful design.
Inspired by Caymanite, the semi-precious gemstone found only in the islands, the interiors embrace an earthy palette of coral, clay, and sea-washed white, complemented by natural textures and greenery. A newly designed entrance guides guests along a serene outdoor pathway surrounded by lush vegetation and calming water elements. Inside, marble tile flooring, hand-painted ceiling motifs, and custom lighting evoke the rhythm and movement of the sea.
Courtney Brannan, principal of Champalimaud Design, said, “Our goal was to create a space that not only reflects Cayman’s coral reefs, flora, and gemstones, but also offers an immersive sanctuary where guests can reconnect with themselves and the surrounding environment. Every detail, from the textures to the soundscapes, is designed to celebrate the island’s heritage while elevating the modern wellness experience.”
The facility now features 16 treatment rooms, including three couple’s suites, three rooms with private showers for body therapies, and a dedicated nail room with two pedicure and three manicure stations. The hydrotherapy area has been expanded to include four cold plunge pools, revitalized saunas, steam rooms, and relaxation lounges.
Massage and facial tables now incorporate vibroacoustic technology, which synchronizes sound and vibration to enhance relaxation and deepen the meditative experience. This feature, paired with the Myndstream sound platform, allows guests to experience soundscapes scientifically designed to support sleep, stress relief, and emotional balance.
The Spa is launching an all-new approach to personalized wellness with the introduction of on-site Wellness Coaches, a new experience for the resort, who connect with guests before arrival to craft individualized treatment journeys. The spa features two world-renowned brand partners; ESPA, celebrated for its natural aromatherapy-based products and marine-inspired ingredients, and 111SKIN, the acclaimed performance skincare line featured in leading luxury spas worldwide.
Showcasing the Spa’s continued commitment to pioneering wellbeing experiences, the resort introduces standout treatments that define its elevated approach to wellness, available nowhere else in the Caribbean.
A marquee of The Spa’s new treatment menu is 111SKIN’s Exosome Regeneration Facial which will be exclusive to this Caribbean location. This 90-minute facial represents the cutting edge of skincare science, leveraging exosomes to promote cellular communication and skin regeneration. Delivered through advanced micro spicule technology, the facial infuses potent rejuvenating actives alongside 111SKIN’s proprietary NAC Y2 formula for visible, transformative results. The treatment incorporates specialized technologies to enhance cleansing, product infusion, and skin firming, maximizing the benefits of the exosome duo formulations. Guests enjoy a deep cleanse, a lifting and sculpting face and neck massage, and a restorative Bio Cellulose mask, resulting in a dramatic lifting, tightening, and illumination effect.
New Signature Wellness Rituals
Thermal Circuit and Vibroacoustic Meditation Experience
This 90-minute ritual combines temperature contrast and sound therapy to calm the nervous system and prepare the body for restorative sleep. It begins with guided heat and cold immersion through the steam room, sauna, jacuzzi, and cold plunge, followed by a private vibroacoustic meditation tailored to each guest’s wellness goals.
Sunrise Floating Sound Bath
This morning ritual aligns body and mind with the island’s natural rhythm. Guests float effortlessly in a serene pool surrounded by the resonance of crystal singing bowls and chimes, followed by a nourishing breakfast made from seasonal island ingredients.

Soundscapes provided by Myndstream accompany treatments such as the Celestial Black Diamond Facial by 111SKIN and the Relaxation Massage, helping to calm the nervous system and deepen restorative rest. Each guest’s sound experience is customized and can be extended beyond the spa to the comfort of their guest room.
The hotel also introduces the new Renewal Retreat, offering a fully immersive, seven-day wellness experience within the Seven South Penthouse. The journey begins with a pre-arrival consultation with the Wellness Coach to craft a personalized plan, as well as a pre-arrival meeting with the resort’s chef to curate healthy meal selections tailored to the guest’s preferences.
Upon arrival, guests participate in an in-suite healthy cooking experience led by the chef, learning techniques for nutritious meal preparation and taking home recipes for continued practice. Throughout the seven days, guests enjoy daily private fitness training and meditation sessions, as well as complimentary access to all on-property fitness classes, including the signature floating sound bath.
The Wellness Coach meets with guests twice during their stay to provide guidance, support, and adjustments to the program as needed. The retreat also includes the exclusive 111SKIN Exosome Facial, two wellness massages, and a curated 111SKIN gift set to extend the spa experience beyond the property. Following departure, the Wellness Coach conducts a post-stay consultation to ensure guests remain on track, helping to sustain the benefits of this deeply restorative and transformative wellness journey.
