I was thrilled to find all the products used during my manicure & pedicure were from La Prairie and was offered champagne. I am now in full 'preparation mode' for my trip to Punta del Este and Buenos Aires next week.
I needed a manicure & pedicure and learning the Ritz-Carlton on Grand Cayman has a 20,000 square foot La Prairie spa made it the obvious choice.
The spa is called 'Silver Rain' and is themed around the "healing waters of Switzerland". I associate La Prairie products with sophisticated luxury and that is exactly how I would sum up this 'sanctuary spa' with excellent staff.
It was the perfect experience for me to relax after a busy day at work in Cayman Islands, with Annie's gentle technique and Martin talking about Ritz-Carlton Doha.

| The Welcome The dramatic crystal entrance lobby, designed by D'Aquino Monaco, is meant to resemble an Alpine glacier and there was a beautiful warm Cayman Islands welcome from the staff. Locker Rooms/Facilities I arrived 30 minutes early to use the facilities. Martin showed me around and brought me a La Prairie branded robe and slippers. The lockers are covered with polyester lacquer to mimic water carved rock and the towels are all also La Prairie branded. I used the steam room and chatted to some other guests and the 30 minutes were over before I knew it. 'Silver Haven' Relaxation Lounge Martin then took me to the 'Silver Haven' relaxation lounge where I had water infused with mint and we chatted about the fact Martin used to work at Ritz-Carlton Doha, when I was living in Qatar. Annie and the Manicure & Pedicure Then I met Annie. Such a charming and sweet lady and a shame she has to leave Cayman Islands next year over the vesting of her pension. Her technique was so gentle and such a contrast with Four Seasons Doha. No pain, silky La Prairie products and exfoliation followed by hot towels. It all felt heavenly. She ended up buffing my nails to a perfect sheen that I am still impressed by. 🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻 (7 out of 5 ‘teddies’) - the stunning facilities, meeting Martin, Annie's incredible technique and the La Prairie products made this a '7 teddy' experience. My tip:- arrive early and talk to the incredible Ritz-Carlton staff, you will not regret this!!! |  As soon as I saw the La Prairie sign I knew I was in for some luxurious pampering.  The D'Aquino Monaco designed 'Alpine glacier' lobby area.  Martin brought me La Prairie branded slippers and a robe.  In the changing rooms the lockers are covered with polyester lacquer to mimic water carved rock and the towels are all La Prairie branded.  The Jacuzzi, there is also a steam room and sauna you can use before your treatment.  The crushed silver drapery in the 'Silver Haven' relaxation lounge gives it an opulent feeling.  The incredibly comfortable chair used during my manicure & pedicure.  The treatment room with La Prairie products on view.  I was offered champagne but, having been at the decadent Ritz-Carlton Sunday brunch the day before, said I was taking a week off champagne!  During the manicure we discussed my Condo on Seven Mile Beach. This was the stunning view of 'my pool' that morning. |
