About this house rental
***PROPERTY OVERVIEW***
Welcome to Present Moment, a villa on the outskirts of the Bodden Town beach that is the ideal retreat to create picture-perfect vacation memories with family and friends.
This beautiful, spacious villa is directly on the beach with sweeping ocean views. The beach is both sandy and pebbly, so water entry requires water socks or pool shoes. Swimmers and snorkelers will find a sandy bottom less than 100 yards from shore. The snorkeling in this area is spectacular!
After exploring the tropical sea life, rinse off using the outdoor shower before a refreshing dip into the fabulous infinity pool. A Baja shelf with submerged pool loungers will quickly become your favorite spot.
The villa�s pool deck also includes a heated spa to melt your worries away and raised oceanfront sun deck for that perfect tan. A tandem kayak is provided complimentary during your stay.
Open and spacious living areas are furnished with contemporary furniture and modern decor. A wall of oceanfront windows provides gorgeous tropical views allowing natural light to flood the home.
After a long day enjoying the island, sink into the comfy sectional sofa to watch a movie, read a novel, or play some family-fun board games.
This single-story private residence can sleep up to 12 guests comfortably across four bedroom suites each with a private bath.

All beaches in Grand Cayman are technically public since the Queen 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 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.

Rented the house for a friends diving trip. From the house it was fairly easy to get into town. Loved coming back to the house in the afternoon and enjoying the incredible pool and outdoor area. Everything at the property was as stated in the listing. It was very clean and roomy for our group. The staff we communicated with was very responsive. Would defiantly recommend this house!

Was beyond our expectations. Great location, quite but close to stores and other things we wanted to see and do. House was equipped with everything you could possibly need. We will be back

The house was spectacular.!! Everything was in order. We had ten family members - 9 adults and one 16 year old. The infinity pool and spa was well used by all. A ride of 30 minutes took you to Georgetown, seven mile beach and all the restaurants and night life.
A great house for relaxing and winding down from daily life.

We were 3 families traveling for leisure. The house is in a wonderful, quiet location. You absolutely must have a car for your group to travel with. It is a 10 minute drive to the grocery, and a 20 to 30 minute drive to all activities. That being said, we absolutely loved staying at this location. The house has plenty of space for our needs and outdoor pool sundeck, hot tub area was where our parties stayed a majority of the time. The beach, once we swept it ourselves, was very nice. Would be nice if this house would have a caretaker come by to do such activities. One of the showers is almost unusable (water barely comes out) in the middle bedroom. We did request it be fixed on the first day but it never was. We purchased two kayaks to use on a daily basis, but the coral is too thick to really enjoy them. Several people in our group got turned over and injured on the coral while trying to kayak. If you’re very interested in swimming in the water this might not be the location for you the coral makes it very difficult to enjoy the water. There was somewhere in tear around the house, like the cushions on the lounger’s, pillows, and one shower but otherwise the house is in good condition. The kitchen had everything we needed. Our group cooks a lot, and never needed anything. The security system works well and was easy to use. If we ever return to this location, we will probably stay here again. Our group very much enjoyed our stay for the week.

From the start we met Sonya upon arrival and she was fantastic. She offered to even take us to get groceries. Everything was seamless. The place was just as it said. It was clean enough bedrooms and the pool area was just what we needed. Everyone we met was so nice including the taxi drivers Marci and Devorn. There is a local store/gas station you can walk to. You can also take the bus for $2. I highly recommend this place for large and small groups.

We loved this property! The views are spectacular!! It’s so so private and the shore had lots to explore with snorkeling and fishing right off the property. Plenty of room for all 10 of us. The kitchen was fully stocked.
They had plenty of coffee, beach towels, cascade, Dawn, laundry detergent, etc.

We loved our stay here! House is exactly what you see in the pictures. The pool area was wonderful! We had two families of 5 each and the house was the perfect size for us. It does take about 25-30 minutes to get to many activities and restaurants. The beach was nice but lots of dead seaweed, but we heard that’s not normal. The beach is sandy up to the water where it gets rocky and lots of sea urchins for probably the first 20 feet but once u get past that there is good snorkeling. It did always seem to be more wavy in this area than 7 mile beach but that also meant there was a nice breeze which there wasn’t on 7 mile beach. We brought our own masks and snorkels but they had some there and fins too. Probably a good idea to bring water shoes. There really aren’t any useable kayaks that u r allowed to use there. Don’t bother getting the one out of the storage area. It’s super hard to get in and out and is very flimsy and doesn’t work well. Overall we had a great time and would recommend this house!

We loved the location of the property as it was away from the busy areas and yet it didn't take long to get to grocery stores, restaurants etc. Sonya, our property manager, was really fantastic to work with. She responded promptly to requests and was very kind. The house is clean, has all the amenities we were looking for - pool and hot tub and right on the beach. Great eating areas and each bedroom had its own bathroom. Also appreciate the washer and dryer. Would definitely stay here again!

From the moment we walked in to the home we felt welcomed and at ease. Everything was exactly as you see on the website. The property manager was waiting for us with a lovely food tray that was exactly what we needed after a long day of travel. Rooms were comfy, pool and hot tub were fantastic and everything was thought of. Couldn't ask for a better vacation. Location was also good. Far enough from the crowds in Georgetown but not too far from any area on the island.

Our winter getaway was perfect staying at Present Moment. Great layout, extremely well equipped kitchen, best outdoor patio area with pool and hot tub and grill overlooking the beach. The charcuterie board was such a wonderful surprise and the property manager was quick to meet our questions. We loved every minute there- hope to be able to return one day!

This was a lovely home! Just what the family needed. The location is in a small neighborhood and a bit far from most things. This was our first time in Cayman so picking a location was in us. The view, however, was beautiful. The home was well equipped, clean and spacious. We truly enjoyed our stay.

Great house overall - The pool was beautiful and right on the beach w/ great shelling. Easy driving distance to East End, Northside, and the West part of the island. Found lots of great food locally in Bodden Town and Savannah too !

I would highly recommend this vacation home.
The house was beautiful and the pool/sun area is second to none. You will definitely need to rent a car.
This home is conveniently located in between Rum Point and 7-Mile. My family was able to easily explore the entire island.
Very close to 2-Must See Restaurants
- Grape Tree Cafe (Best Fish Fry on the Island) 0.5 Mile Away
- The Czech Inn Grill (Incredible Food & Great People!) 1 Mile Away
Would definitely recommend!

Great house!
We really enjoyed our stay at Present Moment. Plenty of space for everyone (we were a family of 5- 2 adults and 3 kids ages 12-17)- kids enjoyed having their own bedroom and bathroom. Was nice to have starter set of shampoo/conditioner/soap provided in each bathroom. Kitchen had everything we needed when we did cook. Property manager was great and very helpful. We especially appreciated the charcuterie board upon our arrival on Sunday since the grocery stores are closed on Sundays. House came with 6 beach chairs and an umbrella - great for daily beach trips!

Best Vacay Ever!
We absolutely loved this property! It was very clean, Sonya our host was AMAZING and very responsive to the 2-3 questions that came up. We love staying in Bodden Town, nice and quiet but still a quick drive to any portion of the island. I would highly recommend staying here!!!

Ideal beautiful location
This was our second time to stay at Present Moments. We love this house and location. Bodden Town is conveniently located to both the East and West Ends of the island. The pool and hot tub offer unparalleled views of the ocean. It’s wonderful to walk the beach and see active sea life and shells/coral. The host provided a delicious charcuterie board upon arrival and the property manager was quick to respond to any questions or problems.

Loved it!
Great property. Exactly like shown. Full amenities including beach towels,chairs,coolers, and float toys to make going to beach more fun. Soft sand beach at property but water is rocky and I swim able. But we loved watching the surf and sound of ocean and view of sunrise.
Very prompt repair service on small problem with air conditioner -and it was Sunday morning!
We would definitely recommend this to friends.

The house and pool were nice but the beach was loaded with giant piles of seaweed and trash and even broken glass. The water was always brown from all the seaweed washing up. If you want no seaweed and a nice beach do not stay on this side of the island.

This house is beautiful and modern. The space was perfect for two families of four. The bunk room was perfect for all 4 kids. The master bedroom has an amazing view of the ocean to wake up to each morning. The pool and back patio and deck areas were great for watching the sunrise, meals, and hanging out around the pool. The kitchen was very well equipped with enough silverware and dishes, pots and pans, Keurig, Nespresso and pods for each; a regular coffee pot and a tea kettle. We felt very much at home. We cooked meals most nights and had everything we needed to prep and cook in the kitchen. Jennifer was very easy to get ahold of whenever we had questions and if we didn't catch her she responded quickly. We had to contact her twice about the hot tub not working and she did everything she could to help us in a timely manor.Helpful tips: This house is approximately 25-30 minutes from the airport and it was $160 for all 8 of us to go to the house via cab. It is about the same distance to get around to 7 mile beach. You may want to rent a car or budget for taxi rides. Grocery stores are closed on Sunday. Our closest store was about 15 minutes to drive to(Foster's IGA Savannah). The end of May is rainy season and it rained all but one of our 7 days. (We actually didn't mind, it didn't stop us at all, but I know it would be a game changer for some.) . The sargassum covered the beach on this side of the Island 10 feet up into the sand and about 50 feet out into the water, so there was no swimming or playing on the beach by the house. We were told this is seasonal. Not to worry though, there are plenty of beaches to visit on other sides of the Island! We loved getting out and exploring the beautiful Island and then having a quiet house away from all the crowds to come back to. Highly recommend the Lobster Pot and The Wharf to eat. The Turtle Farm, StingRay City, Royal Palms Beach Club on 7 mile Beach were some of our favorite places. They made for great day trips. We made a lot of great memories and had a wonderful trip!

This is a fantastic house. It’s a bit far from other areas of the island but the pool, hot tub, beach and view were the best. We would definitely rent this house again. Jennifer was very helpful with minor issues. Very prompt and professional.

Reviewer Comments:
We visited Present Moment as part of a family vacation with 6 adults and 4 children ages 6 to 18 months. This was our second trip to the island and the selection on the South shore proved to be ideal, far enough from Seven Mile Beach to allow us ‘quite time’ but close enough that we could do all the restaurants and enjoy the beach on a day trip. The Luxury Cayman Villas staff was great, always available by phone and very attentive as we settled in and had questions. The house itself is well appointed and maintained, and with a bunk room, it was ideal for the children. The setting is beautiful, right on the water, and whether watching the sun rise with a cup of coffee or set with a cocktail, tranquility abounds. The pool is large and inviting as well as the Spa, but here is where we had a disappointment. Unfortunately, the heater for the Spa had broken just before our arrival and replacement parts were not going to be available until after we departed. This was a great disappointment to the group as this was one of the selling features that lead us to select this otherwise lovely home. The staff apologized and advised if any other property were available they would have moved us, but they were fully book. Still Ann let us know that they would make it right for the inconvenience, and they did, rebating a reasonable portion of our rent to compensate for the property not being perfect. All in all we still had a great and relaxing vacation and very much appreciate the efforts on the part of the staff to make us comfortable. Especially nice was the way the company handled the one problem with the home; this is a company that we will return to again for our next Cayman vacation. Luxury Cayman Villas stand behind their product and take care of their guests, thank you.

7 adults and 5 kids stayed a Present Moment for a week. Everyone had a great time. The property and house are beautiful. We had some maintenance issues (which really couldn't be helped as this place seems to constantly have visitors) and Nicola the property manager was quick to respond and help resolve the issue. The location worked for us as we wanted to visit both the 7 mile beach area as well as the east end and north side of the island.

Beautiful day at Present Moment
We hosted a work offsite at the beautiful Present Moment, the layout was perfect for our small group and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the day out of the office. The views were spectacular and the patio space was a great area for both our lunch and dinner.

The team at Luxury Cayman Villas have been fantastic to work with and I would highly recommend them to anyone visiting the island.

Great stay on Grand Cayman at Present Moment. The home and pool are amazing with everything we need. Yes it is a little off the beaten path, but that's the Beauty of it. We discovered the various beaches during the day (7 mile, smiths, and others) coming back later in the day to swim and watch the waves roll in. Really not a bad drive and felt nice to be away from the crowds. Very relaxing and peaceful. Would have liked a beach you can swim more on, but loved the waves. Would definitely recommend

Reviewer Comments:
It was fantastic. We loved the cleanliness and layout of the house. We loved the pool. The beach was okay. We would rather have had sand instead of rocks & coral with sea anemones.The sea kayak was fun. The guest services were great.

Beautiful home and location fine unless you are interested in being closer to the 7 Mile Beach action. Really not a very swim able beach. We rent homes every year on different islands and the experience with Luxury Cayman doesn't compare. 1) Not greeted at the airport and so with no real data access, finding the home was not easy. 2) supposedly we are supposed to have Magic Jack at the house to call the states but it doesn't work 3) pool is not clean and has large pieces of peeled paint from the house so not sure when it was cleaned last. 4) some of the remotes don't work and not sure if batteries need replaced but had to improvise to change channels in the dish network. 5) here with 8 people and went to use the grill for burgers and dogs. There is a sign on the grill that says not to use the far right burner, but the middle burner doesn't work either. Had to cook in stages since not everything fits in one burner. Not sure what we will do with the other food we planned on grilling. Again, the house is nice bu
