Seaside Paradise #24

I stayed here with my family of four for almost a week. It was perfect for us! It's very quiet and chill, so close to rum point, starfish point and Kaibo yacht club, and the snorkeling is AWESOME right outside the door. Google search for Testudo's snorkeling guide on the rum point drift snorkel route to get an idea of what it's like in the water. I saw a spotted eagle ray not far from the house! The house is nothing fancy but is plenty comfortable enough to hang out, cook your own meals, and listen to the waves. You can open up the storm blinds on all of the windows to let the breeze flow through, or you can close everything off and turn on the A/C to keep cool. The screened in porch is the highlight of this place. We loved eating breakfast, hanging out and looking at the nighttime stars without being bothered by bugs.The beach has a few rocks but there is more than enough open space for the kids to play in the sand. We were the only ones on the beach most of the time. Be sure to wear sandals or water socks unless you want to take a trip to the urgent care facility to patch up a cut foot (like we had to do with our daughter).

Our expectations were a clean, comfortable, house that was on the beach in a quiet part of the island. This is EXACTLY what we got! We were able to drive around most of the island during our stay, and we didn't see any other properties that matched up to this one. We loved it so much that we are hoping to book this same place next summer.

Our trip to the Cayman Islands and our stay at Seaside Paradise was wonderful! Beautiful views of the ocean right of your back porch. The snorkeling right off your own private beach was fantastic! Rum point is a very short drive or walk away with drinks, food, volleyball, or any type of water sports wanted. The house was super comfortable and secluded. This was one of our best vacations and we will definitely be back! Thank you Reynolds Family!

We have stayed in this complex (not this house) before so we knew sort of what we were getting into as far as the housing but for the price, it was perfect. If your looking for large and fancy 5 star condo crowded in rows on a beach,..keep looking. If your looking for "at home" comfort, small and cozy and feet from the beach?? this is your place! Clean, bright and everything you need for your stay, you cant go wrong. The owner (Chad) was very easy to work with and quick to respond with all of our questions and concerns so we never felt we were on our own while there. We had a few issues but each time I contacted the property manager, Barb, she was also quick to respond and tried her best to correct it. I must say there really needs to be instructions for the TV and air conditioning. For us ladies who are not "gadget-smart" this was a challenge. However since we couldnt get the remote to work, we played games, much better! And the coffee maker may need to be replaced. 4 ladies huddled over the machine waiting for 20 minutes was comical. But with those issues out of the way, let me get to meat of this review. First and foremost was the views and the breeze. The minute you open the doors, the beautiful breeze, the swaying palm trees and spectacular ocean colors hit you. The Big fluffy towels right by the door leading to the beach really helped put us in the mood for sun and fun! This is paradise folks! We felt we had a private beach as there was only a few people there the week we stayed. The snorkeling was fantastic right out side your door. we tried to snorkel as much as possible but the wind was too bad for most of the days we were there but we could swim no problem. The Water is crystal clear. Just wade past the sea grass and the ocean is yours. we rented a car and enjoyed the many other areas on the island as well as jumped on our floats and floated (YES-actually floated) with the current right to Rum Point and got one of their famous Mudslides. The walk back was short as your right down the road. To top off this great place, another important deal breaker for us were the beds-it was heavenly. ALL of us agreed it felt like home. We loved staying here and want to thank the owner for sharing his home with us! :)

We thoroughly enjoyed our days/nights at #24 - excellent location steps from the water and decent snorkeling right there!! Very well equipped and comfortable home.

My comment would be to include a few more instruction type notes - for TV, safe and best

way to lock up, giving only 1 key was given and only worked on the dead bolts...

Otherwise - all perfect and we loved our stay!!

If you like a quiet, peaceful place with fantastic water views, this is the place for you. The unit was clean, beds were very comfortable; we didn't need the AC - the ocean breeze was more than sufficient. Kitchen was well equipped. Good water pressure and temperature. Bathroom had ample supply of toilet paper (bring your own shampoo); plenty of sunblock available. Location is very convenient; short drive to several restaurants and Rum Point beach. The owner, Chad, was very responsive; all emails were answered right away.

We will be glad to rent this unit again.
