Nestled in the heart of Rum Point, Dragon’s Pearl is a beautifully renovated two-bedroom, two-bathroom canal-front cottage that captures the timeless charm of old Cayman while offering the modern comforts today’s travelers expect. As one of the original homes developed in the Rum Point area, this special property blends heritage character with thoughtful updates, creating a relaxed and welcoming island retreat.
Set on its own spacious parcel as a true standalone home, Dragon’s Pearl offers a level of privacy which is highly sought after in the area. No shared walls, elevators, or common spaces, just your own peaceful waterfront haven surrounded by lush tropical landscaping.
The home comfortably sleeps up to six adults, or seven guests in total when including a toddler or baby, making it ideal for couples, families, or small groups seeking both space and seclusion.
Inside, the home feels bright and inviting, with natural light streaming through large glass sliding doors thanks to its eastern orientation. The updated kitchen offers generous countertop space, ample storage, and new appliances, making it easy to prepare anything from a quick breakfast to a full evening meal. A cozy breakfast table seats four, while a built-in workspace provides a convenient spot to catch up on emails if needed.
Just beyond, the open living and dining area offers comfortable seating for everyone, including a double-sized sofa bed that provides additional sleeping space when needed. Whether gathering to watch a movie, enjoying conversation after a day at the beach, or relaxing in the reading nook while taking in views of the surrounding tropical landscape. The indoor dining table accommodates up to six guests, creating a welcoming setting for shared meals.
The spacious master bedroom features a king-sized bed, a television, and direct access to the screened patio through sliding glass doors. Its ensuite bathroom includes a double vanity and a stand-up shower, offering both space and convenience. The second bedroom is furnished with a queen bed and is located near the second full bathroom, which includes a bathtub and shower combination, perfect for families traveling with children.
Outdoor living is where Dragon’s Pearl truly shines. With its eastern orientation, the home welcomes the prevailing northeast trade winds, allowing guests to open the sliding glass doors and enjoy a constant, refreshing breeze throughout the living areas and master bedroom. The expansive screened-in patio stretches almost the entire length of the back of the house, providing the perfect setting to take in the tropical air comfortably without concern for insects. Overlooking lush landscaping, mangroves, and the peaceful canal waters, all part of your private grounds, this inviting space is furnished for both lounging and dining. Spend your days swaying in one of two hammocks, enjoying meals at the outdoor table, or simply unwinding with a book while the breeze drifts through.
Just beyond the screened patio, an upper deck offers additional seating for soaking up the sun and enjoying the natural surroundings. A few steps down leads to the waterfront deck and private 40-foot dock, complete with a gazebo, picnic table, and Adirondack chairs, an idyllic setting for morning coffee, sunset cocktails, or quiet afternoons by the water. An outdoor shower provides a convenient spot to rinse off after kayaking, boating, fishing, or returning from the beach across the road.
For boaters and nature lovers, the location is exceptional. Guests who bring or rent a boat can dock it directly at the property for easy access to the North Sound. Four kayaks are provided and can be launched right from the dock, offering a wonderful way to explore the calm canal waterways of Rum Point. Fishing enthusiasts can cast a line straight from the dock, and with a bit of luck, may even catch fresh snapper for dinner.
Dragon’s Pearl is perfectly positioned directly across the road from Rum Point Club and Beach. Guests can easily stroll over to enjoy the sandy beach, watersports, and dining options including The Rum Deck beach bar and Solis restaurant. Red Sail Sports is nearby for diving, snorkeling, Stingray City tours, jet skis, and other adventures. The Rum Point Resort’s Blue Flame Restaurant is just next door, and the popular Kaibo Beach Bar and Restaurant is only a short drive away.
Blending classic Cayman cottage charm with modern updates, cooling trade winds, exceptional privacy, and an unbeatable waterfront location, Dragon’s Pearl offers a peaceful, character-filled retreat where days are spent on the water, evenings are enjoyed under the gazebo or on the patio, and the best of Rum Point is just steps away, yet your private island sanctuary always awaits.
