SugarNSpice8104 Posted February 24, 2007 #1 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Has anyone visited Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville in Grand Cayman? Was wondering how far it is from where the tender drops you off and if it is in walking distance. Also if anyone has also been to the Margaritaville in Jamaica is it any different, just as fun? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Rain Posted February 24, 2007 #2 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Hi Sugar N Spice It is very close to the tender area. Just a short walk.. maybe like two blocks away or so. Melanie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drew sailbum Posted February 24, 2007 #3 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Margaritaville in Grand Cayman is directly across the road from the north cruise terminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PEBBarney Posted February 24, 2007 #4 Share Posted February 24, 2007 The ones in Jamaica are much more fun. No where near the same atmoshere as Jamaica. The slide and pool are very, very small. Not more than probably three people in the pool at a time. It's also very expensive, as is everything in Grand Cayman. I'm a huge JB fan and probably won't go back to the one in Cayman, even though it is right by the tender drop off point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OliverTheCat Posted February 26, 2007 #5 Share Posted February 26, 2007 How pricey were the drinks at this location ? I know I paid $24 for a yard at Senor Frogs and had a heart attack when the bill came. If a margarita is gonna cost $15 bucks I want to be prepared ahead of time.

PEBBarney Posted February 27, 2007 #6 Share Posted February 27, 2007 It depends on the size of the drink, but you are in the ballpark as far as prices go. Remember everything on the menu is in Cayman dollars, which when you pay must be converted to US dollars. As of today every $1 Cayman dollar is equal to $1.20 US dollars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KVR Posted February 27, 2007 #8 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Grand Cayman has a Senor Frogs? I don't remember seeing it in 2003 when we went. Must be new. Where is it located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustangjoe Posted February 27, 2007 #9 Share Posted February 27, 2007 It is new! It opened sometime last year. It is right across the street from where the tenders drop.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OliverTheCat Posted February 27, 2007 #10 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Yes, and their tacos at THAT Senor Frogs were the best I have ever ever eaten. They have some sauces there that were out of this world. I think it was 10 US dollars for 2 tacos and chips. I highly recommend the Senor Frogs for lunch. Just be weary of the drinks, as I previously posted. From now on we will ask the price of the drink in US dollars before we order. The yard prices werent posted, so this is why I got stuck with an almost $30 drink. I think mine had 3 liquors in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drew sailbum Posted February 27, 2007 #11 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Again, Margaritaville is directly across the street from the north terminal, right on the waterfront. Señor Frogs is located on Fort Street about a half block away from the waterfront. As always, alcoholic beverages are quite expensive at restaurants and bars in Cayman. Normally menus list prices in CI$ (CI$1=US$1.25) and often a 15% gratuity is automatically added. (Example: A CI$8.95 drink = US$11.19, and with a 15% gratuity added the bill comes to US$12.87) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDR Posted February 27, 2007 #12 Share Posted February 27, 2007 I agree with Oliver-Senor Frogs for lunch is great. We must have ordered the same thing, because I thought the tacos were the best I've ever had! Those yards are wicked, but I like to collect one from every location. We'll be in GC in July and will probably stop by Margaritaville to check it out since we love Buffet:) Both places are an easy walk from the tender area.

The shopping "mall" that surrounds this M'Ville is extremely nice, too. Be sure and stroll it, talk to the parrots and iguanas. Have your pic taken with Big Black Dick, and try to keep a straight face.... Warning - we hit it on a Sunday, and Senor Frogs and about 60% of the other places were CLOSED!!!:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sag1804 Posted February 28, 2007 #14 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Will be there next wed!!! I am so excited. The Triumph is only there from 8-430. Hopefully there is enough time to enjoy the island and get a good 2 hours in margaritaville and the 1/2 senor frogs!!! I look forward to this very much so. Anything you would recomend from about 830-noon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gracie65 Posted March 1, 2007 #16 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Close to the ship but EXPENSIVE. Hopefully you are also going to Ocho Rios you can get lunch & drinks there for what two drinks in Grand Cayman are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
