Pool is small
La Cazetta Guest House and Cottages is a three-pearl hotel located in West Bay. Its six guest rooms and cottages are cozy and clean, with cottages featuring separate living areas with sofa beds and full kitchens with ovens. The small property’s green grounds include a pleasant outdoor pool, barbecue facilities, and sitting areas in the gardens. But the beach is a 15-minute drive away, and there are only a couple of restaurants within walking distance, so a car is needed here. Travelers might want to compare amenities and rates with the nearby Shangri-La Bed & Breakfast.

Scene
Charming guest house with basic but thoughtful amenities
La Cazetta Guest House and Cottages is a cute and unassuming property. The owners live on-site and are usually available to help with recommendations -- and they offer cell phone rentals for guests. The property’s salmon-colored cottages are set on well-landscaped grounds, with winding stone pathways cutting across the open lawn. The pool is tucked alongside the main house, which houses the reception area, the breakfast area, and two guest rooms.
With no beach and a relatively small pool, guests tend not to linger here during the day. The out-of-the-way location is best for guests looking to skip the island’s entertainment and nightlife scene. The homey cottages are popular with families, while the guest rooms draw couples and solo travelers.
Location
Quiet residential location in the West Bay district
La Cazetta is located in Mount Pleasant, a residential area in West Bay. There are a couple of restaurants found within a 20-minute walk, but otherwise the guest house is surrounded by private homes. There's a bus stop in front of the guest house, but service is inconsistent and stops in the early evening. Dolphin Discovery and Cayman Turtle Farm are a 10-minute drive away, and the shops, restaurants, and sands of Seven Mile Beach are about a 15-minute drive away. The capital of George Town and the airport are a 20-minute drive away.
Rooms
Quaint rooms with mini-fridges and free Wi-Fi
The six rooms at La Cazetta are tidy and inviting.

Rooms also include mini-fridges, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi.
Cottages have two bedrooms, dining tables, and separate living areas with sofa beds. Kitchens have ovens, full-size refrigerators, and microwaves, along with cookware and cutlery. Cottages also include washers and dryers, as well as private verandas overlooking the property’s pretty landscaped grounds.
Features
Outdoor pool, barbecues available for guests' use, and free Wi-Fi
