***Getting Around***
A rental car is highly recommended. Taxi cabs are unreliable and expensive outside of town and Seven Mile Beach. Plus, there is no Uber or Lyft on the island. For rental cars, we recommend Budget Cayman, Avis, or Marshalls.
***Day Tripping***
Cayman Ferries operates daily water taxis departing from the Kaibo Marina to Camana Bay. Perfect for day trips to Seven Mile Beach or shopping excursions at Camana Bay. Download their app to purchase your tickets in advance. Just be sure to make it back for the return voyage across the sound!
***Villa Cleaning & Sanitation***
All villas are cleaned and sanitized before each guest’s arrival. We also ask our owners to provide a starter supply of extra cleaning products. Additional housekeeping services can be purchased after booking in 3-hour time blocks. Scheduling may be coordinated with your property manager upon arrival.
***Beach Notes***
All beaches in Grand Cayman are technically public since the Crown owns up to the high watermark. 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.

About the area
Rum Point, located on the picturesque northern coast of Grand Cayman in the Cayman Islands, is a slice of tropical paradise that beckons travelers with its laid-back charm and natural beauty. Known for its crystal-clear waters, soft white sands, and an atmosphere that encourages relaxation, Rum Point is the perfect escape for those looking to unwind and soak up the Caribbean sun.

The vibrant coral reefs just offshore are teeming with marine life, offering snorkelers and divers the chance to encounter a variety of colorful fish, sea turtles, and other aquatic creatures. The area is also famous for its bioluminescent bay, where visitors can take a nighttime kayak tour to witness the magical glow of tiny organisms in the water.
For those who prefer to stay on land, the iconic Rum Point Club is a must-visit. With its hammocks strung between palm trees and signature mudslide cocktails, the club provides a quintessential Caribbean experience.

It's a place where time seems to slow down, allowing visitors to truly relax and enjoy the natural splendor of the Cayman Islands.
For a complete island experience, travelers can explore the nearby Starfish Point, a secluded beach where starfish dot the shallow waters, or take a scenic drive through the island's lush interior to discover hidden gems and local wildlife.
In essence, Rum Point offers a blend of relaxation, adventure, and authentic Caribbean culture, making it an idyllic destination for families, couples, and solo travelers alike. Whether you're basking in the sun on its serene beaches, exploring the underwater wonders, or simply enjoying the local hospitality, Rum Point promises a memorable and rejuvenating getaway.
