That's the question the Barefoot Man asks in one of his songs.  Because of the multi-story monsters like the Ritz Carlson that now line the beach, beautiful seven mile beach is being transformed to another "Miami".    Shame on the government of Grand Cayman for allowing such a disfiguration of their beautiful island.    My wife and I have been going annually to Grand Cayman in March and the changes have so shocked and disappointed us.  Yes, Grand Cayman is still very nice, but nothing like it was years ago.  I truly believe that once Cuba is open to US citizens, Grand Cayman will lose many of its visitors.  All beaches are public, and one can set up their blankets or towels right in front of the Ritz if they so desire.  But why do that when all one has to do is walk a little further up the beach to a very nice public beach next to the Governor's house and just two properties up from the Westin.  If one wants to stay at a hotel on Grand Cayman as opposed to a condo, the Westin is the place to stay.  Forget the Ritz with its narrow beach and stay at the Westin.  You will be glad you did so.  All should know that the Hyatt has given up the lease to both its properties and is no longer on Grand Cayman.  There are superb restaurants on Grand Cayman, such as the Warf, Pappagallo's, Casanova's and many, many more including a little place favored by the locals called Champion House II.  If you go, be sure to take a trip to Stingray City.  There are many boat operartors who can take you there, but we like Capt. Crosby.  He can be found in the telephone book.  Stingray City is a unique place and can only be found in Grand Cayman.  One should also note that Grand Cayman is very expensive.  The US dollar is worth only 80 cents Cayman.  So if you buy something for $16 Cayman and give the store a $20 US bill, they will take it and say thank you.  Throughout the island, US currency is accepted and does not have to be changed in Cayman dollars.
