This month, Morritt’s Resort, a 184-unit property renowned for offering “home away from home” ownership vacations to more than 9,000 members over the last 25 years, opened The Londoner – an additional 20-unit luxury section of the property. The official opening was celebrated with a VIP ceremony and reception including the Morritt family, island dignitaries, representatives from Interval International, members of the press and resort staff.

Inspired by the 2012 Summer Olympics, which was hosted in property owner David Morritt’s hometown of London, England, The Londoner units are configured as follows:

• Ten (10) two-bedroom units (accommodating up to six people)

• Six (6) two-bedroom townhouses (accommodating up to six people)

• Four (4) three-bedroom penthouses (accommodating up to eight people).

Accommodations at The Londoner feature extra-large private balconies overlooking the beach, beautiful ‘Caribbean Chic’ décor, spectacular ocean views, spacious interiors, fully-appointed kitchens, granite countertops and stainless steel appliances.

“My dream has always been to build only the finest quality resort and vacation ownership property and we never sacrifice when seeking excellence,” said David Morritt, developer and president of Morritt’s Properties Ltd. “The Londoner has all the ingredients that will help provide a truly luxurious experience in the Cayman Islands and I am very proud of what we have built,” he added.

Morritt’s Resort celebrates its Silver Anniversary this month and throughout 2014. “My staff and I look forward to the next 25 years of offering top-of-the-line vacations and are excited to introduce The Londoner to old and new friends alike,” said Morritt.

Over the last 25 years, Morritt has worked tirelessly to develop his vision of a resort complex that recreates a home-like environment in a tropical vacation atmosphere. A consummate perfectionist and trendsetter, Morritt continues to implement enhancements to the guest experience.

“We are proud to work with David Morritt, an independent developer who has been delivering on the promise of vacation ownership for thousands of consumers and making their vacation dreams come true for more than two decades,” said David Callaghan, vice president, resort sales and service of Interval International, a prominent worldwide provider of vacation services. “The opening of The Londoner gives owners and guests the opportunity to enjoy beautiful, state-of-the-art accommodations in a stunning setting, along with the same superior service for which Morritt’s is known.”

Guests will enjoy delectable dishes and unique Caribbean cuisine at the resort’s restaurants, David’s Deep Blue Restaurant & Bar and Mimi’s Dock Bar & Restaurant, including daily happy hour specials and festive themed nights.

Among the many on-site leisure activities available to guests are Tortuga Divers and Red Sail Sports, providing jet skiing, sailing, kayaking, wind surfing, banana boat rides, scuba diving, full- and half-day snorkeling trips and boat excursions.
