The owner of the Ritz-Carlton Grand Cayman has decided to list the 356-room hotel for sale.

The Connecticut-based owner, Five Mile Capital Partners LLC, is in the early stages of marketing the property, Grand Cayman broker Kim Lund told the Cayman Compass.

“It’s going ahead,” Lund told the Cayman Compass. “It’s still at the early stages. They are doing their due diligence, doing valuations, getting their pricing where they want it. There are a lot of moving parts to this.”
