NCB Group recently celebrated a key construction milestone at Kailani Grand Cayman, a Curio Collection by Hilton hotel, with its roof topping. The hotel will be the first business and wellness property of its kind in the Cayman Islands and a part of the global Hilton portfolio, recognised as the world’s most valuable hospitality brand. Kailani Grand Cayman is slated to open its doors to guests in late 2025.

Kailani Grand Cayman will offer a unique blend of luxury, business, and wellness amenities– appealing to Wellness Tourism, the world’s fastest-growing travel sector set to reach US$1.15 billion in 2025. Located on prime beachfront real estate, the hotel will feature a mix of one to three-bedroom suites, farm-to-table dining, a skyline spa, and conference facilities.

Matthew Wight, Managing Director of NCB Group, shared his excitement about reaching this important phase. "We are thrilled to announce the roof topping at Kailani, a project that represents NCB’s first venture into the hospitality sector. Tourism in the Cayman Islands is on the rise again, with over a quarter million stay-over visitors in the first half of 2024, and we hope to further complement this growth by adding an additional 117 beds to Grand Cayman’s hotel room inventory.”

Kailani Grand Cayman’s central location offers investors a unique opportunity to diversify their portfolios, while receiving 50% of the gross room rental, six-weeks stay at the hotel per year, and year-round resort access and hotel perks. With one of the most competitive prices per square foot available for prime beachfront property in the Cayman Islands, Kailani Grand Cayman presents an attractive option for those looking to invest in the Islands’ growing tourism and hospitality markets

Naul Bodden, President of NCB Group, praised the team’s efforts. "The roof topping is a significant achievement, and the result of our group’s multiple different service lines working together. We are proud to see Kailani progressing, and we look forward to our entrance into the hospitality space with this flagship project."

As one of six active development projects under NCB Group’s portfolio, Kailani Grand Cayman will set a new standard for luxury wellness and business travel in the Cayman Islands and be a valuable addition to the tourism industry, assisting with the sustainable development of the sector.
