The hotel was basic but nice and clean. Rooms were very comfortable. The front desk staff were friendly and accommodating. However, the rooms were not cleaned well on daily basis. The first day only the trash was emptied, the other days were a bit better. The best benefit of this hotel was that it was associated with Westin across the street and we could use their amenities with our Sunshine hotel bracelets, which was fantastic.

This is a fantastic deal. You have privileges at the Westin Hotel across the street for restaurants and bars and beaches activities for a 1/3 of the price. It’s very comfortable and convenient. I would definitely recommend it.

Third time staying here and it gets better every time! They recently renovated and the new rooms are really nice! With two little kids, it was nice to have a little kitchen to store and reheat as needed. We arrived 2 hours early and they accommodated us quickly which was very helpful with little kids! The short walk the Westing and having all the restaurants right by us were a huge plus! We can’t wait to go back!

It was not clear this was a “motel style” property with all rooms accessed from outside. That is fine but when it is called a hotel you have different expectations. The rooms are newly renovated, clean and nice , especially bath and shower. The AC units are not upgraded and are quite noisy and did not do a good job of taking humidity out of the rooms. They are the old style under-window on the exterior wall style. We had to keep our room very cold (65deg) in order for it to not feel damp and sticky -‘for reference our visit was mid March. I would still come here again, the price for the location and access to Westin amenities is still a great value.

We love this hotel. However, the first building we stayed in had water pressure problems. One evening, all water faucets had no water. And the second night the kitchen and bath faucet had water while the shower water dried up while in it. Management offered both times to change rooms. We took them up on the offer the second night and we’re pleased as the other building had no problems with water pressure. This was the second year in a row staying at the hotel and we will stay there again as long as the water pressure problems are resolved.

The staff maintain a SPOTLESS room, the prices are the best on the island for comparable hotels, the Grill was being updated so we missed the food (excellent and reasonably priced)—that was the only minus of the trip.

Oh!
And the rooms have all been updated AND you still have access to all the amenities of the Westin across the street; beach, spa, restaurants). We’ve stayed at both the Westin and SS over the years—SS is now our hands-down preferred stay on the island.

If this sounds effusive, it’s because on the (admittedly rare) ocasiona I leave a negative review, it has earned every word. The same when a place is fabulous. This one is.

Sunshine Suites is our go to Cayman spot. They have recently renovated and it looks great. Only downside this trip was the Sunshine Grill was closed for renovations (but it will be open later this spring). Access to beach through it's sister property adds tremendous value.

This is a remodeled Motel. And the photos on Hotels.com don't match the place. They've repainted it from the charming Yellow to something that looks like a cheap motel. The pool area pictures don't match reality either. The rooms ARE nice, they're remodeled and functional. And you DO have access to the Westin across the street.

Im very picky when it comes to cleanliness, and it was perfect. Walking distance to the westin resort with all the amenities available to us was an added value. We were able to use the pool at the sunshine suites which was nice and quiet. If i were to come back to Grand Cayman i would 100% stay here again. Great experience!! Thank you sunshine suites!

The room was nicely renovated. The kitchenette had silverware, bowls, and dishes. All very nice, organized, and what you would need to eat breakfast or lunch in the room. The king room was not huge but fine for two ppl since we didn't spend much time in the room anyway. The room was very clean, check-in was super easy, and they accommodated us with a 1 pm check-out. Great to be able to walk to all the restaurants on Seven Mile Beach.

This was our third time staying at Sunshine Suites. The hotel is currently being remodeled. We were excited to get to stay in a newly updated, clean, and quiet room. However, we were so sad the Sunshine Grill was not open because their food is absolutely delicious, especially their fish tacos, and hope it will be open the next time we return. The grill is truly a gem at Sunshine.

I loved almost everything about this property. It was renovated, the AC worked very well and they had ceiling fans in both the living area and bedroom. I was upgraded to a 1 bedroom suite upon arrival. It was updated and very modern. The restaurant and the pool were closed upon arrival but we were allowed to use the pool and beach chairs at the Westin across the street -- less than a 10 minute walk depending on what side of the resort you stayed on. The first we were given on the 1st floor did not have hot water so we were moved to the 2nd floor where the water was the perfect temperature. The beds were the only downside, they were so HARD, not firm, just hard. Luckily I was tired enough to fall asleep.
Again the beach is right across the street and The Eats Cafe/Legendz Bar is also within a short walking distance. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Overall, if I ever come back, I'll be staying here.

We had a wonderful stay at Sunshine Suites. The new renovated rooms were nicely done and everything was updated and clean. I can’t wait to see what it will look like when the rest of the renovations are complete (other buildings, the pool and the grill were closed for renovations during our stay). The ladies at the front desk were fantastic and helpful during our stay. Housekeeping came by every day. We enjoyed the perks of the Westin (pool, grill and beach). The beach was less than a 10 minute walk.

We were not bothered by the ongoing construction since we weren’t in our room during the day. We found the air conditioning helps drown out the sound of the roosters in the early AM.

Odor in the Room

When we walked in the room there was a odor. The linens on the bed were damp from the humidity. The ac cooled the room but did not remove the humidity. The carpeting needs cleaned. I had to use an inhaler because of dust or mold. I found an N95 mask in my bags and wore it while sleeping.
Upon check out, I was comped the resort fee. I think in view of the experience, my room charge should have been comped also.
I have stayed at other hotels on the island over the past 25+ years and have never had such a bad experience.

This is the sister hotel to the Westin. It's not cheap at all but much lower than staying at the Westin and you get access to all of their incredible amenities. The rooms are a bit dated, but clean and comfortable. They are currently renovating, but they are doing it the right way, a section at a time. In fact this was one of the quietest hotels that I have ever stayed at. Except for the rossters, but they're all overthe island! Very friendly staff! We'll be back next year for sure.

Unfortunately, I was very disappointed in the rooms. They are very outdated and there is a musty smell throughout the room which no matter what they spray it’s still there. The carpets should be torn up and room tiled especially since cayman can be humid and there is only wall unit acs so not a great scenario. There is no ac in the bathroom. The furniture is way too big for the small rooms.

With that said, being able to use the Westin property is awesome.

If the rooms were renovated and there was central ac it would be a great hotel.
