***GETTING AROUND***
A rental car is highly recommended. Taxi cabs are unreliable and expensive outside of town. Plus, there is no Uber or Lyft in Cayman. For rental cars, we recommend Avis, Marshalls, or Hertz.
Gypsy is approx. 47 minutes (25 miles) from the airport, GCM.
5-8 minutes to the west is the newly reopened Rum Point Club offering watersport rentals, a beach bar, and a new restaurant, Solis at Rum Point. The Kaibo is another beachfront dining destination with a casual bar and grill, plus a fine dining restaurant. Natural attractions include Starfish Point and the island's Bioluminescent Bay.
To the east, you'll find Chisolm's Grocery (5 mins), and two beach resorts--Morritt's and the Wyndham Reef (18 mins)--with restaurants and a supermarket acorss the street.
***VILLA CLEANING***
All villas are cleaned and sanitized prior to 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***
The homes in Rum Point offer great reef-protected snorkeling and kayaking. The beaches tend to have plenty of white sand but also can have spots of rocky �ironshore� formations.
The closer you get to Rum Point, usually the sandier the beach as well as the swimming. Either way, with the abundant marine life we have in the water, you will want to wear pool shoes or fins for foot protection.
The big draw to this area is the proximity to the Rum Point Club, a public beach with barefoot soft sand, watersports, a beach bar & grill, a gift shop, and pick-up beach volleyball games. Also nearby is The Kaibo restaurant, bar, and marina.
***ISLAND BEACH NOTES***
All beaches in Grand Cayman are technically public since the Crown owns up to the high water mark.
The shoreline quality behind your property may vary slightly from the images on our website due to shifting tides and weather patterns. 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 over the years during the summer. Our owners do make efforts to remove heavy sargassum and will have the beach raked prior to your arrival.
Should sargassum weed 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.

We had a blast and the property is wonderful. The Rum Point side of the island is definitely slower pace than the 7 mile stretch, which we preferred.

This was a beautiful property, with everything a family of 7 could want. Shamar was a fantastic liaison, helpful, friendly and on top of everything! No detail was overlooked, everything was perfect. Restaurant recommendations, activities, kayaks, he did it all. The pool and beach surpassed expectations. Highly recommend!

Overall 8/10! Great trip. Great views, very private and quiet. Beautiful home. Some general maintenance is needed. A/C in bedrooms did not work well despite following instructions for turning it on. Wifi could use a booster in the bedroom with twin beds. Interior doors seemed to lock on their own but we did locate a key.

Great Family Vacation! But Beach Wasnt the Best.
We had a fabulous week at Gypsy! The house is gorgeous! Every room was beautifully decorated and super comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with every item you would need. The pool area is gorgeous as is the private beach. We spent most of our hours laying around the pool deck, swimming in the pool or sunning in beach chairs on the beach. However, the water in front of the house was not exactly swimmable. There was a ton of sea grass which made the water very murky. The reef in front of the house is still suffering damage from Hurricane Ivan so there were not alot of fish. Once the winds calmed down, the water was a bit gentler. But do not expect water like on Seven Mile Beach. Being adults, we were fine going in the water but I think smaller kids would be frightened. However, this did not deter us at all from having an amazing week at Gypsy. We did need to call the Property Manager about a few things and everything was resolved in less than 24 hours. Thelda was wonderful to deal with! We would definitely stay at Gypsy again when we come back to Cayman.

This house has it all! A sandy beach with good snorkeling within swimming distance, a wonderful pool to enjoy, luxury accommodations with comfortable, well appointed rooms, plenty of towels to go around and the best kitchen we have every had with plenty of everything, including coffee maker, Keurig, and a great blender. Not to mention the piano, a wonderful touch for the musician of the family and a couch to fit everyone. Don't miss out on this one, and we speak from experience as this is the 5th house we have rented in the Rum Point area.

North side and Rum Point are great areas. This property is well situated, nice beach, well appointed and all around very nice for a family getaway. Some maintenance issues. Be sure to let them know right away of any problems. Highly recommended!

Beautiful home on the north side . Sunrises were just breathtaking
We came to the Cayman Islands for a family reunion and there were nine of us. This is a beautiful spacious home with a great pool. The house is extremely close to the water which was good for the kids . Very calm and peaceful home and close to Rum point.

We arrived on Grand Cayman at the airport and were to the location of the house with in 1-1/2 hours with a stop at the grocery store. When we walked into the Gypsy everyone in our party was blown away by the flooring and the open plan. The back yard is private and the view of the water is amazing and I live on the water in Florida. the kitchen was large and all the rooms are private and not put on top of each other. There were pleanty of towels and the fridge seems to be oversized. We took a taxi to the house but decided to get a car the next day because you are very limited on getting around on that end of the island due to no taxi services. Rum point restaurant and the yacht club are 1.1 and 2.2 miles up the street and a very easy ride in a car. the pool has the ability to get heated and we took advantage of that because we were there in February. The owner of the house has a 27' Boston Whaler that you can rent and we did that one day. The captain of the Whaler is a guy name Joe and he was amazing and so knowledgeable. I cant wait to return to this end of the Grand Cayman island and relax again. Geoff & 7 guest.

Gypsy 4BR. was Great.
The house was perfect for our group. 8-adults 2-Grandkids 2yrs. and 3yrs. and with the all on one floor concept it was wonderful, the grandkids could run around with no worries. Well maintained with everything you could want. One drawback was the water access, due to the time of year from the rough sea the beach was covered with sea grass piled up about 18inches high at the water line so no water access. We just piled up in the van and took them to Rum Point just up the road...3 minutes. All in all its was GREAT

Amazing vacation!!! Awesome quiet location, very clean - highly recommend a stay here!
This property is amazing. Very clean, great quiet location near Rum Point. We did a family trip with 9 of us and there was plenty of room for everyone. I am a clean freak and this by far exceeded any place we have ever stayed. We visited the other side of the island near Seven Mile Beach, but prefer the peace and tranquility of this side. We made some unforgettable memories and every one of us would go back and would definitely stay at Gypsy. Just amazing. Can't say enough about it.

Beautiful well maintained home.
Very clean and spacious. Comfortable beds plenty of bath and beach towels. Kitchen is well stocked. If you need anything the owners are prompt to respond. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Great!
Great property and location. House as advertised. A couple of minor issues, refrigerator was struggling to keep things cold and probably should be replaced and the automatic system to unlock the house on arrival didn't work and we had to call and get the code. Overall extremely satisfied.

beautiful -- better than pictures
I rented Gypsy to celebrate the life of my husband who passed in April. 4 of our 5 daughters, a couple of husbands and grandkids were able to join. We are spread all over the country so it was a perfect place for us to all get together. The house is so roomy that we never felt crowded or on top of each other. We loved the fact that we could snorkel right off the beach and rarely saw another person when at the house. Gypsy is beautifully appointed! We spent one night in a condo on Seven Mile Beach and, although we had a great time, we all said that we were so happy that we spent our vacation at Gypsy. Cayman Villas is a very professional company and I highly recommend working with them for your Cayman vacation.

First Time To Cayman ... Of Many More to Come
If a stay on Grand Cayman goes this smoothly all the time, we will keep coming back. Gypsy was an immaculate home equipped with everything we could possibly need. All of the bedrooms were luxurious and well maintained. The living area looks better in person than any pictures could portray! This place looks like it is out of a designer magazine!
The beach out back is a deep white sand and the kids played there all day. Entry into the water ws easy and the snorkeling fantastic. The pool is very nice and the pool deck area inviting for all of us wanting to relax in the sun!
We ventured over to Rum Point a couple days - highly recommended, and even took a private charter recommended by Grand Cayman Villas to stingray city sandbar and an afternoon of snorkeling - an absolute MUST!
Can't say enough good things about the home, location, friendly people, easy driving ... We will be back soon!
