Savannah is one of the highest (above sea level) areas of Grand Cayman. The commute times have improved since the East-West Arterial Road opened, but it still slows down significantly near Prospect during the morning rush hour. From late May to early August the poinciana trees (of which the area has an overwhelming abundance) flower and the sight as you drive through Savannah is breath-taking.
Also located in Savannah is Pedro St. James Castle, a national historical site and the oldest existing structure in Cayman. It is known as the “Birthplace of Democracy in the Cayman Islands”.
Countryside Shopping Village, located at the roundabout where the road intersects between Savannah, Pedro and the entrance to Newlands, is the largest central shopping hub in the area. This village of shops has a Foster’s supermarket, CNB bank, large pharmacy, medical clinic, liquor store, hardware store, gym, veterinary clinic, dry cleaners and a few other useful stores. It also features several restaurants including a Pizza Hut, Subway, Dragon Garden (a Chinese) and newly opened in 2019, Cimbocco. This is great for surrounding residents who no longer have to drive to Grand Harbour or to town for everyday essentials. There is also a small preschool called RiteStart in the district of Savannah.
