***Property Overview***
Great Escape is located on a quiet cove in Cayman Kai merely a short walk from Rum Point Beach.

This sprawling villa consists of the main house, with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, plus an optional 1 bedroom, 1 bath guest cottage. Renting both the villa and cottage gives guests two superb master king suites to choose from, plus additional king and queen guest bedrooms.

With a large, freshwater swimming pool, barefoot sandy beach, and spacious interiors, Great Escape is a fantastic property for your island getaway.

***Villa Cleaning & Sanitation***

-- 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***
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.

Our trip to the Great Escape at Rum Point was both amazing and much needed. All of the bedrooms had so much space and kept us cool at night. The whole house stayed cool and gave relief from the daytime heat when needed. The pool has a table with 4 seats that became the center for waterproof card games and great conversation. There are so many great places to disappear to if you choose to take a nap around the pool. The lanai (porch) was fully screened in which was a nice feature to keep the bugs off us when the wind stops at night; although most of the time it was breezy, so no bugs. The surrounding landscaping was very lovely to look at while floating around. There was a sand wash off station that was an underrated amenity. The gas grill worked wonderfully. The kitchen was big with plenty of space to store food and fix breakfast, even with a large crew. The kitchen was also very well stocked with more than enough silverware, dishes, cups and cookware. I would go back in one click with no remorse.

The property was absolutely amazing!!! Our group couldn't have been more happy with the villa. We had 7 adults in our group. Between the main house and pool house we had more than enough space. The house was incredibly clean when we arrived and well stocked. The outdoor space is a haven. The pictures don't do it justice A few pointers you may want to know. It is not close to 7-mile beach. If you are looking for night life, shopping and a bunch of restaurants to choose from, then be prepared to drive. If you want something quiet and less touristy, this is the place!! There are some restaurants near by, and only one that is within walking distance. Thank you, Great Escape for making our vacation so perfect.

We had a wonderful visit. Great escape was the perfect property. It had absolutely everything we needed. The property is even more stunning in person. More than enough space for multi families. Endless areas indoors and outdoors to relax. A great place for kids. The bioluminescent bay right off the dock, starfish point and sting ray city were favorites. But we were thrilled just to lounge in the huge pool, paddle board and relax in the hammock. The property is far from seven mile beach, but we knew this and prepared by stocking up on groceries. We much preferred the out of town private feel. The only thing to make the experience perfect would be if Rum Point was open - it is currently closed for renovations, which we didn’t realize until after we arrived. We will just have to return when it reopens happens!

Do yourself a favor and book elsewhere. While the pictures looked good the furnishings of this residence need updating. The pool was to cold to use and the deck chairs were in horrible shape. We also had large bugs crawling on the floor and followed then to a hole in the wall behind the TV in the master bedroom. Plugged it with a hand towel. Bedroom tv’s didn’t work at all. Pot and pans were horrible. Just glad to away healthy.

Location and layout of properrty and house is stellar for combined families and children. Rum Pointe was ideal for our family. Our trip to the Island was fabulous. Grand Cayman Villas and Silver Thatch services, professional and friendly staff. Thank you. Issues we experienced with house, inefficient HVAC system in the main house, bedrooms either too cold with second and third bedrooms too hot with noisy ceilinng fans. The small guests house was musty, our son and his families allergies kicked in. Purple bedroom mattress needs to be replaced with firmer mattress.

Your very own resort In paradise

We thoroughly enjoyed the property. Plenty to do to keep our party of 8 satisfied because getting to Seven Mile beach from Rum Point is quite a long trip and driving at night was not easy. If you want peace and quiet this is the place. We had a little trouble getting in touch with the property manager but to his defense there was a wind storm on the island and he was very busy. The pool was very dirty from the storm - we cleaned it ourselves because we were unable to get in touch with Ron and the safe was locked but after it was open it still did not work for us - could have Been operator error. Small issues - great time! We will return to CAY MAN - the island is beautiful!
