The space ***Property Overview*** Welcome to Villa Caymanas! This beautiful oceanfront villa is located in Old Man Bay along the north coast. Boasting four full king suites, an oceanfront freshwater pool, and an expansive balcony, Villa Caymanas is the perfect vacation retreat. Whether you prefer to explore the snorkeling reefs nearby or simply relax by the pool, it's all just steps off the back door. The beach here is strictly pebbly (rarely sandy), but the owner has a very sandy backyard around the pool deck. The villa is directly in front of Babylon, one of the top 5 dive sites on the entire island. The snorkeling in this area is excellent; however, fins or pool shoes are necessary to protect your feet.

Be advised, the beach or water entry behind your property may vary slightly from the images displayed due to shifting weather and tide patterns. The next-door beach is also always available for your use. We advise guests to wear foot protection (pool socks or aqua shoes) when entering the ocean to avoid injury on coral heads, ironshore, or rocks. ***Ocean Debris & Sargassum Seaweed*** Beaches in Grand Cayman may also experience floating ocean debris and sargassum weed seasonally. Sargassum is a generally harmless floating seaweed that has increased in frequency in recent years. Although sargassum is an unsightly nuisance, it is largely seasonal in summer. Our owners do make efforts to remove heavy sargassum and will have the beach raked prior to your arrival. Should sargassum be extremely heavy behind your property, we will reach out to the owner for alternative solutions, which may include a partial refund or relocation. We try our best to work around Mother Nature. Other things to note Villa guests can check in at our Welcome Center at 846 Frank Sound Road. Directions and check-in procedures will be emailed 2 weeks before your arrival.
