***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.
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.
