On The Rocks

***Property Overview*** Welcome to On The Rocks. This oceanfront gated estate is conveniently located 20 minutes from the airport in the planned residential community of Beach Bay. The dozen or so homes along this rugged coastline share a key neighborhood amenity: a wonderful sandy beach cove, with protected swimming and excellent snorkeling, just 5 minutes from the villa! Our guests report seeing lobster, octopus, and teeming juvenile fish along the coral heads. Architecturally, the design and flow of the house is low-country plantation-style with elevated ocean views throughout, a wrap-around veranda, and a central great room with walk-out access to a private freshwater pool. There is an enormous driveway for parking and a detached garage with a guest suite above that sleeps 2. The main 6-bedroom, 3-bathroom villa features a wrap-around veranda that provides a full-day respite from the Caribbean sun with shaded areas for a good read, morning yoga sessions, breakfast, or sunset viewings. The freshwater pool has a wide sundeck with lounge chaises as well as a gazebo for al fresco dining by the sea. A zoysia grass lawn feels cool on bare feet and the estate has many mature palm trees for additional shade. ***Sleeping Arrangements*** (Main Villa + Guest Suite Sleeps 14 Guests.) -- Primary Suite: upper-level, king bed, ocean views, television, walk-out access to a private balcony, ensuite bathroom with deep soaking tub and separate shower. -- Bedroom #1: upper-level, four poster queen bed, ocean views, desk + chair, shares upper-level hall bathroom equipped with a shared bath. -- Bedroom #2: upper-level, two twin beds, garden views, shares upper-level hall bathroom equipped with a shower bath. -- Bedroom #3: upper-level, queen bed, garden views, shares upper-level hall bathroom equipped with a shower bath. -- Bedroom #4: lower-level, queen bed, ocean views, television, walk-out access to the pool deck, shares connected bathroom equipped with a shower bath. -- Bedroom #5: lower-level, queen bed, shares connect bathroom equipped with shower bath. -- Guest Suite: above the detached garage with air conditioning, kitchenette, living and dining area, television with AppleTV + Xbox 360, queen bed, and bathroom with shower.

Be advised, the beach or water entry behind your property may vary slightly from the images displayed due to weather. The next-door beach is also always available for your use. ***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.
