Map & Owner's Profile
Secluded Beachfront Ground-Floor Luxury Condo the Laurelei
Year Purchased: 2000
Why the Owner Chose Rum Point
Things we love about our island home. We love the intimacy of a small island and the friendly and safe atmosphere that Grand Cayman offers. The North Side beaches are empty, secluded, with many open seaside areas & exclusive homes on large lots. Being alone with nature and the Sea and most of the time having the beach to ourselves is priceless. Knowing the weather and the Sea are always warm. The sea & sky are ever-changing to different hues of turquoise and cobalt, and one is enveloped in a feeling of peace and relaxation.
The North Pointe complex has a wonderful management, friendly helpful owners, and is the only apartment complex within 2 miles. The Laurelei is fully licensed with the Cayman Islands Department of Tourism.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
Walking a long empty white sand beach in the morning and watching each spectacular sunrise! Euphoric! Breakfast on The Laurelei's private deck! Snorkeling in clear warm waters with colorful sealife and reef just a few yards from shore! Reading a great book under a palm tree! Dining in the candlelit lanai with fresh sea breezes! Floating in perfect turquoise tidal sea pools, breathing pristine air, watching cloud formations! Dining on great local cuisine, and dancing at a local hangout under incredible stars! Traveling every back road and enjoying this safe, friendly island and it's wonderful people!
Owner's Map of Rum Point
We are private owners of The Laurelei, purchased in 2000 from the original owners. The Laurelei is one of only 4 groundfloor condos with a private deck & back door opening directly onto the beach. 18 feet of sliding glass doors open to gorgeous views of the Caribbean Sea. The complex of 10 units was completely rebuilt with state-of-the-art concrete construction (one of the strongest systems possible) after Hurricane Ivan caused damage in late 2004. We chose luxury upgrades, added custom furnishings, fine bedding & upholstery & linens, along with artistic touches such as original artworks and island sculpture. We take pride in constantly updating our island home and in making it as comfortable and affordable as possible for our happy guests.

The Laurelei is the best kept secret in the Caymans. It is quiet, beautiful and fully appointed. We made our second trip this year and plan to go back many times. The unit itself is beautifully decorated and has everything you need. It's location it the best for those who want some privacy, but don't want to be to far from some group fun. Rum Point is just a bit away and offers many opportunities. We found ourselves reading, relaxing and sunning by the pool more often than going. On the days we went, it was great to be close to so many opportunities without being on top of the cruise ship crowds.
Owner response:Thank you so much for your lovely review of The Laurelei. It is our wish that you will return again to the island and enjoy all that the island and The Laurelei offer.
Recommended for:Families with teenagers, romantic getaway, adventure seekers, age 55+, girls getaway, sightseeing, families with young children.

Thank you Chuck and Laurie for your wonderful home. We felt relaxed and well cared for as soon as we arrived. The furnishings, beds and kitchen were exceptional. We have been coming to Cayman since the 70's and this condo rates right up there with the best. We hope to see you next year. The Busses

"Just wanted to drop you a quick line and comment on our vacation. To sum it up "GREAT!". Charles & Laurie have the best kept secret condo on the island! Your home in Grand Cayman is beautiful. We had a very relaxing time at the Laurelei. The pool is perfect. When you chose this condo, you got the best of the ten available in my opinion. The weather was Caribbean normal (ie. superb!). There were clouds every morning and evening so we didn't get a chance to catch the usually gorgeous sunrise and sunset times. Maybe next time! The weather during the day was picture perfect. I had the privilege to introduce my son (13) to scuba. What a blast. We dove together 5 times. Visibility was down from the normal 100+ feet to just 80 feet. (lol). You can choose your own pace here. Slow and easy to action packed and hectic.. You make the choice. Dining at a restaurant or cooking in the fully equipped kitchen, the choice is yours. Diving is close by. We used Ocean Frontiers. We've been to Grand Cayman 8 times in the past 22 years. Ocean Frontiers is the best dive experience, bar none. Thanks ever so much again for allowing us to share your home!"

This was a wonderful vacation home. Everything you could possibly want. The pool was always warm and right at your back door. Because the property has a limited number of condos, most days we were the only ones in the pool. The ocean view is incredible. We would highly recommend The Laurelei.
