Mandarin Oriental Residences Grand Cayman: The Caribbean’s Most Anticipated Oceanfront Address
A landmark debut at St. James Point, where five-star amenities, refined design, and rare privacy converge on Grand Cayman’s exclusive southern coast.
Marking a significant milestone in Caribbean luxury real estate, Mandarin Oriental Residences, Grand Cayman located at St. James Point represents the first new-build Mandarin Oriental residential development in the region. Positioned on Grand Cayman’s tranquil southern coast, away from the bustle of Seven Mile Beach, this exclusive enclave offers discerning buyers an unprecedented combination of resort-caliber amenities, architectural sophistication, and direct ocean access.
With construction underway and nearly half of the residences sold before completion, the development reflects strong demand for Grand Cayman’s luxury real estate. Pricing begins at $8,260,000 for a two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom residence, with values rising as inventory progresses through sales milestones. Completion is anticipated for Q1 2028.
Reginald Bouzy, Founder and CEO of The Bouzy Group and a global luxury real estate broker proudly affiliated with Coldwell Banker, is handling sales for this landmark project. With extensive expertise across Florida, New Jersey, and distinguished international markets including the Cayman Islands, he provides exceptional service and market intelligence for high-net-worth clients pursuing extraordinary properties.
Mandarin Oriental Residences: Architectural Distinction Meets Five-Star Service
The development establishes a new paradigm for Caribbean luxury living, combining thoughtfully designed residences with the legendary hospitality standards of the Mandarin Oriental brand.
Two Residential Collections Offering Distinct Living Experiences
The project comprises two carefully curated collections, each providing a unique approach to luxury island living. The Beach House Residences occupy the top four levels of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, offering direct access to the resort’s lagoon pool, crescent beach, and comprehensive dining venues. This integration allows residents to seamlessly enjoy hotel amenities while maintaining the privacy and space of standalone residences.
The Ocean House Residences provide enhanced seclusion, featuring exclusive access to a private residential lounge and dedicated pool area. These residences appeal to buyers prioritizing maximum privacy while retaining the option to utilize the hotel’s five-star services when desired.
All 20 residences, ranging from two to four bedrooms, feature open, contemporary layouts crafted to separate social and private zones. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame uninterrupted ocean vistas, while expansive private terraces, the largest available on Grand Cayman, create seamless indoor-outdoor living spaces. Primary suites open directly to these outdoor areas through sliding glass doors, maximizing the connection to the surrounding seascape.
Interior design by Hall of Fame firm Meyer Davis delivers a sophisticated, turn-key experience. Custom furnishings and carefully selected materials blend comfort with contemporary elegance, eliminating the need for additional customization while ensuring each residence maintains the Mandarin Oriental standard of refinement.
Resort-Caliber Amenities Define the Ownership Experience
The Mandarin Oriental Residences provide access to a curated suite of five-star amenities that extend well beyond typical condominium offerings. A protected beach and swimming area ensure year-round ocean access, while adult and lagoon pools cater to varied preferences. Cabana and lounge services deliver resort-style comfort, complemented by The Spa at Mandarin Oriental and a multi-studio fitness center at The Wellness Center.
Families enjoy a dedicated Kid’s Club, while five dining venues offer diverse cuisines on-site. Private transport ensures effortless island exploration, complemented by daily housekeeping.
Through the Residences Elite Program, owners gain VIP privileges across Mandarin Oriental properties worldwide, turning ownership into a passport for global luxury travel appealing to international high-net-worth individuals.
Landscaped gardens and walking trails blend the development with its natural surroundings, preserving the coastal ecosystem and offering outdoor recreation. Social coordination services allow residents to connect with the community or enjoy complete privacy as they wish.
Grand Cayman’s Evolving Luxury Landscape
The Mandarin Oriental Residences arrive at a transformative moment for Grand Cayman’s high-end real estate sector, setting new benchmarks for quality and exclusivity while building on the island’s enduring international appeal.
St. James Point: Secluded Sophistication on the Southern Coast
Situated on Grand Cayman’s southernmost coastline, St. James Point offers a refined alternative to the island’s more developed northern areas. The location provides unmatched tranquility while maintaining convenient access to the island’s finest dining establishments, shopping districts, and cultural attractions. This balance between privacy and connectivity appeals particularly to high-net-worth individuals seeking retreat-style living without sacrificing modern conveniences.
The surrounding area benefits from ongoing infrastructure enhancements, including improved road networks and upgraded utilities, further elevating the region’s desirability. Protected waters create ideal conditions for swimming and water sports, while the development’s expansive beachfront provides exclusive access to pristine shorelines.
Cayman’s Tax-Neutral Advantage Drives International Demand
With a stable market and favorable fiscal environment, Grand Cayman remains one of the most desirable locations for luxury real estate, attracting discerning buyers from North America, Europe, and Asia.
Recent analysis shows a surge in millennial and Gen X high-net-worth buyers entering the Caribbean luxury market, driven by remote work and lifestyle priorities. The Mandarin Oriental Residences cater to this shift with contemporary design and full-service amenities appealing to younger affluent audiences.
Despite global economic headwinds, the high-end market remains resilient, with prestige developments holding strong valuations. As infrastructure and amenity upgrades advance, properties in emerging luxury corridors show strong appreciation potential.
