    We had a fantastic tour with Tricia. We arrived without a reservation and inquired about tour options. We opted for the guided tour and Tricia was immediately available and provided my family of 5 a private tour of the house and grounds. She recounted us with stories relevant to the house and history of the Caymans, plus some extra stories of royals and celebs that had taken her tour in past years. Honestly, without Tricia, it would have been a very so-so attraction that wouldn't interest non-history buffs, but Tricia made it all very special and provided an excellent afternoon.

    People were nice and you learn about Caymans founding and history. Which in itself is not much different than all the surrounding islands. The Rum tasting was 3 thimble size tastes and that's it. Maybe 1/3 shot. Really should not be called a tasting. Perhaps they could do Appleton's in Jamaica to understand what they should be arriving for. This was a waste of cruise excursion day when there were lots of options. Again people were super nice. Not their fault. Food was decent. Jamaican Jerk flat bread was the highlight.

    The tour guide was amazing. Do not remember her name, but she used to live in Virginia and her husband is a veteran. She was funny/informative/respectful. The rum itself was DELICIOUS. The only complaint I have, is the dining/rum tasting room’s staff. They were friendly for sure, but they seemed to not be on the same page with what was going on around them. I almost walked out “thinking I paid my bill” and turned out that the currency exchange wasn’t correct on their end. They would have lost about $10 from just me if I left the building. The food itself was very good. I had the lobster with mashed potatoes.

    The tour of the house and the history were interesting. It gave us more depth to Cayman life. We tried 3 different runs and had a great flatbread. Estella was our server and she was amazing! We even went back the next day for more of the same flatbread.

    Very good. Your guide Stacy Hurlston was a gem and very kind and knowledgeable. And offered to take many photos of us for us. Rum tasting was short but good quality of caymanian produced rums. And the bar staff were very kind and fun to talk to. As a local with a friend visiting, they have definitely improved it since the last time I was there. I was extremely impressed. Definitely worth it people!!
