Pappagallo Beach is a gorgeous undeveloped 2 mile stretch of pristine white sand. At your doorstep it is a snorkeler/naturalist’s dream come true, abundant with marine wildlife, bird watching, fishing, kite sailing, and walking trails.

This is a special place that prioritizes R(rest) &R (relaxation) &R (re-charge). A 'beach or pool chaise ' awaits you. Sit on the beach with a good book, listen to the waves, watch the birds, dig your toes in the sand, or count the shades of blue (80 so far). If you need a 'break' from chilling out, the 7MB jet skiers, para-sailing, bars, kids activities, dive shop, bike rentals etc., are just a short drive away. Your vacation can be as active or inactive as you want with full flexibility.

A pre-arrival information package is provided, and guests are properly welcomed with an in-person meet and greet. There is also 24/7 on island back-up support.

Guests regularly tell us that it is their best vacation ever, and that the attention to detail and extra TLC are some of the reasons many of them repeatedly come back.

Our 'Barefoot Elegance' villa is so much more to us than a rental property. We enjoy sharing a slice of 'island life' with our guests so they can create their own wonderful memories.

Direct daily flights are available from New York, Toronto, Chicago, Miami, Tampa, Atlanta, Houston, Denver, and Detroit.

Stayed here for a week with my husband and 7 y.o. son while we visited Grand Cayman for the first time and adventured around the island. The villa has it all! Great location to get to activities (with exception of rum point, botanical gardens, crystal caves and cayman parrot sanctuary but it is fun to adventure across the island to visit these) and tasty dining including being able to walk across the street to one of the best restaurants on island. It was clean and had everything we needed. Lee was very responsive and had a solid team on island to help and respond to any need. The view, pool, space, convenience to activities, amenities, and communication, including the multi-page 'guest notes' that we used to plan a very fun trip, are all excellent and make this a gem of a rental. We hope to come back and stay here again soon!

Wonderful, well-maintained private condo and beach
Wonderful, well-maintained private condo and beach
Wonderful condo, very well maintained with everything we needed. Lee was especially hospitable and helpful throughout. Only thing worth noting is that our 3 year-old daughter really couldn't swim in the ocean between the coral right in front of the beach and the currents past them even if you go off the end of the dock, which were windier and rougher than Seven Mile Beach. However, for the space, condition of the apt, beach front location with rare privacy and gorgeous views from our balcony, thought the condo was terrific value and really appreciated Lee's warm hospitality. Looking forward to returning to Grand Cayman!

Our week at Villa Pappagallo could not have been better. A spacious, clean and well-stocked condo with a great view of the pool and beach. There is an excellent restaurant right across the street, but you will definitely want to rent a car. That's so you can check out the Sticky Toffee Pudding at the Calypso Grill. As an added bonus, if you fly Cayman Airways from Chicago you're there in four hours with no connecting flight. Great trip!

Our two weeks at Villas Pappagallo unit #41 was just what we needed. This condo is spacious, well-appointed and comfortable. The view from the private patio of this unit across the lovely pool to the beach and ocean is hard to beat. The temperature of the well-maintained pool was perfect for us and there is plenty of seating and umbrellas around the pool as well as chairs and loungers at the beach. We enjoyed a trip to Rum Point and spent a day in Georgetown and on both occasions we had a really good lunch. There are numerous good restaurants around and we would say that The Cracked Conch was our favourite. A little slice of paradise.

We had never been to Cayman before and we booked this condo based on location (away from 7 mile beach area) and value. We were not disappointed! We rented a car so we could drive around the island and get into the action when we wanted to but then we could also go back to our quiet, secluded condo. This condo is beautiful inside and out. Lee has decorated it with great style and taste! It is very clean inside and out. Lee was a pleasure to work with, answering all of my countless questions! She provides anything you might need for the week and also has very comfortable beds with luxurious sheets and towels. This condo is spacious! Lots of room to move. There are lots of beach towels so you don't have to pack your own. The views from the condo bedroom and living area are breathtaking! This complex is near many good restaurants within driving distance and even Pappagallo, which is right across the street. Our favorite restaurants were; Catch, The Cracked Conch, Macabucca and Guy Harvey's Restaurant. We traveled with our two kids ages 13 & 10 and they LOVED Grand Cayman. We would definitely stay at Starfish Villa again.

Beyond Expectations!!!
Beyond Expectations!!!
I just returned from a week long stay at Starfish Villa. What an amazing place! The location is the best on the island! Starfish Villa is in Villas Papagallo, which is a relatively small low rise condo complex with a private pool and beach that feels like it is your own. We spent hours walking along the beach, enjoying the warm breeze coming off the ocean. The grounds are beautifully maintained and the views from the balcony breathtaking. The condo itself was impeccably clean and nicely decorated. The rooms are spacious and the beds very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped, so cooking in was a pleasure. However, we did eat out a couple of nights and can highly recommend Ristorante Papagallo which is right across the street and Agua which is about 10 minutes away. Grand Cayman itself is lovely. The people are very helpful and everywhere we went we felt safe. I would recommend renting a car and driving around the island. There are many beautiful beaches and the snorkelling is awesome. There is no question we would go back!

Villas Pappagallo - a real treasure!
Villas Pappagallo - a real treasure!
My boyfriend and I stayed at Villas Pappagallo in April 2015 for 9 days. What a delight! After booking the apartment, we were supplied with more information by the owner that helped us prepare and plan for our vacation. Sandy greeted us upon arrival. She was happy to answer any questions we had and left us to settle in and explore. At first glance, we were pleasantly surprised by the accuracy of the photos. I have ended up in rental units that often times look spacious and clean from the photos and unfortunately were not. This was NOT the case with this unit. It was large, clean, and well-decorated. The beds were big, comfortable and fresh. The towels were clean and plentiful. The kitchen was better equipped than our own. We immediately felt at home in our “temporary home”! The unit was a treat, but the property at Villas Pappagallo was the real treasure. We were looking to relax and decompress – VP was just the place! We found ourselves fall into a routine early on. Waking up early to the sun peaking through the bedroom windows, breakfast on the balcony, trips down to the pool, and long walks down the beach. Some of the best snorkelling on the island is directly off the VP jetty – we saw plenty of fun sea creatures. In the evenings, we found ourselves back on the balcony with a drink in hand. It was a level of relaxation we had never experienced! When we did decide to travel outside of the property, we were pleased to see that this wasn’t a cliché Caribbean Island. The locals are genuine and you won’t be harrassed while walking down the beach. We took trips to the Turtle Farm and Cracked Conch, Seven Mile Beach, Cemetery Beach and the East End. We felt comfortable everywhere we went and the island was easy to navigate by car. A must do is Stingray City. What majestic creatures! While we ate many meals at home, we did venture out to a couple meals during our stay. We ate Chicken Chicken for take-out, and dined out at Ristorante Pappagallo, Calypso Grill and Cimboco. All fantastic meals! The restaurants on the island provide something for everyone. Overall our experience was unforgettable! Lee has put a lot of thought, effort and care into making this place a home. She was responsive and her advice was extremely valuable. We hope that we have a chance to return to Villas Pappagallo in the near future and we will definitely recommend to all friends and family! Thank you Lee!
