Most of the time I just grab some tissues and/or TP from my cruise ship or a hotel. If we are traveling by car we will "borrow" a roll from a hotel. ;)

Did they offer any compensation other than a refund of your cruise fare?

If your airline tickets are non-refundable then I would push them for reimbursement.

I agree with you on this. Grand Cayman is a great island but after a couple of visits you've seen and done most of what there is to do for most cruise passengers.

One thing about Grand Cayman that is different from other islands. They "do not" need the cruise lines to keep their economy afloat. There aren't too many poor people on Grand Cayman.
