We interviewed Sandrine Dixneuf, Spa Director at The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman, to learn more about treatments to try, insider tips, and more.

Why You’ll Love It: Our guest satisfaction rate has been consistently high and this is all because of our Spa team. Our Spa Coordinators, Attendants, and Therapists are the ones making the difference in our guests’ experience by simply genuinely caring for our guests and making sure they have a wonderful experience from the moment they arrive to the moment they leave. Our therapists are exceptional at what they do and make sure every treatment is personalized based on the guest’s need and goals.

The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman offers prime beach access and various water activities.

Key Features: Our Spa journey starts by the use of our steam room, sauna, and jacuzzi to prepare the body and skin to embrace the Spa services that follow. Our showers have a special shower head with aromatherapy to enliven the senses, also enhancing the quality of the water and its pressure. Guests may also relax and enjoy some refreshments in our Spa relaxation lounge pre and post-service.

Snacks Served: Mostly healthy snacks such as dried fruits and several types of nuts, but also some cookies for those with a sweet tooth. We also offer a choice of two flavored water daily as well as tea, coffee, and champagne.

Insider’s Tip: Come as early as one hour prior if possible to make sure you have plenty of time to enjoy all the amenities and please turn off your cell phone—it will really help you disconnect and maximize the benefits of your Spa treatment. Give your therapist as much information as you can about your preferences  and what you really want to get out of your experience, this is your time and it should be as if it was tailored just for you.  

Stunning water views can be enjoyed across the property.

Bonus: Guests are offered a neck warmer while relaxing in the lounge prior to their Spa service and a complimentary glass of champagne afterwards. They also get to choose their own music playlist for their treatment. Visitors coming by car receive complimentary valet parking.

Splurge Treatment: The Black Diamond Non-Surgical Face lift—a luxurious, relaxing, and results-driven facial all at once! This facial will make you fall asleep while the products and techniques work their magic, the anti-aging benefits are immediate, your skin is firm and lines minimized. The team and I were blown away with the results experienced during our initial training. We took before and after pictures and wow!

The spa’s amenities include separate relaxation sanctuaries for men and women.

Favorite Treatment: Difficult question, my favorite treatment might change every day based on my mood. The Art of Wellness is probably my favorite massage. It normally takes time for me to disconnect when I get a massage, but the way the treatment starts with the guided visualization, my mind gets to focus on the moment and stops wandering, which helps me disconnect faster and enjoy my massage from the beginning.

As for my favorite facial, it would have to be both the Black Diamond Non-Surgical Face Lift as well as the Natural Resilience Facial, which is the complete approach to skin health using cutting-edge pre and probiotic technology combined with the same benefits of physical exercise to detoxify, invigorate, sculpt, and relax. It uses powerful age-defying techniques inspired by Japanese Kobido massage, along with cool and smooth jade rollers that facilitate lymphatic drainage and provide results, leaving skin firm, lifted, and radiant. 

Let’s not forget my favorite pedicure: the Ultimate Pedicure is not just a pedicure but an elevated experience that immerses you in the captivating world of the Modern Alchemy collection. This collection uses deeply sensorial restorative rituals and designed to harmonize the delicate balance between your skin, body, and mind—a true luxury to be cherished in today's fast-paced modern world. Before we commence, you take a moment to set your intention, allowing yourself to be embraced by a realm of indulgence, where each step is crafted to revive your senses and nurture your entire being.

The Forbes Five-Star spa offers treatments from the experts at ESPA and 111SKIN.

Unique Treatment: The Art of Wellness, this treatment is featured on the Wellness page of our Menu. This unique transformative treatment creates a state of pure bliss and brings healing and wellness to the mind, body, and soul. Guided breathing and visualization together with a deeply therapeutic Salt Stone and Rose Quartz Crystal massage releases physical tension and relaxes the mind to embrace the art of letting go—something we all need in our current world.

The treatment menu features a variety of facials, massages, body treatments, and more.

Featured Products: ESPA, a natural and organic brand that uses ingredients from plants, the ocean, and aromatherapy. They offer a variety of products for body and skin for all skin types combining results with wellness (maybe insert what we normally share with the media about ESPA).

111skin, a luxurious clinical brand designed by a surgeon, Dr Yannis, is mostly focused on skincare, very healing, repairing and results-driven.

I personally use ESPA in the morning and 111SKIN in the evening as part of my daily skincare routine as I cannot chose a favorite! They are both so different and yet, both bring me exactly what I need for my skin.

The resort’s thoughtful design enlivens its senses with the unmatched beauty of Seven Mile Beach.
