About this property

'Cayman Cottage by the Sea' - Economical Family Accommodations

Cayman Cottage by the Sea is a two storey, two bedroom Caribbean Cottage that is absolutely perfect for the budget-minded traveler.

Located on the south (Beach) side of the road in peaceful Colliers, on the East End of Grand Cayman, it is literally steps away from a pristine, white powdery sand beach. Nestled amongst lush, tropical plants, palm and coconut trees, there is a large terrace off the 2nd floor for reading or sun-tanning with a fabulous view of the OCEAN !

The cottage has recently undergone a renovation, with pictures coming soon.
We have removed the winding staircase to allow more space in the living room and kitchen. The staircase is now on the extension behind the kitchen. On the 2nd floor, we have put in a new 3-piece bathroom. Our kitchen was recently renovated and includes a dishwasher, ceramic cooktop, microwave / convection oven, Full-sized fridge, glass mosaic backsplash and granite countertops.

There are two bathrooms; one on each floor. The downstairs bathroom has the master bedroom and 3-piece ensuite. The upstairs bedroom is huge, and has, in addition to the new bathroom with shower, a queen sized bed, 3 single beds and a seating area.

The cottage is just 10 minutes from the new Shetty Hospital for Cardiac Care -- which is located in High Rock. This is the perfect, low cost option if you have family who are in the hospital and you want to stay close by.

The 'Cayman Cottage by the Sea' is fully equipped with all linens, dishes and cooking utensils. There is an indoor dinette and outdoor patio set. Cottage could hold a maximum of 7 guests. You could have the following configurations:

Maximum capacity is 7. The ground floor master bedroom has a queen bed. On the 2nd floor, in one large room, is another queen, and a trundle bed with 2 pull-outs (making it 3 single beds). If you have more guests than this, or other friends/family decide they'd like to join you, Cayman Beach House, to the left of the cottage and about 20 feet away, has some add-on options.

We have 2 tandem Kayaks, a single Kayak, and 2 paddle boards as well as life vests that are for our guests to use at no charge. We recently had a swimming pool installed and have a whirlpool which is also a hot tub at night (between 6-9 p.m. only).

Everything you need for your vacation. At a price you can afford.

If the calendar shows it is available, then it IS available. If you have questions other than "is it available?" please email me. If you want to make a reservation, just use "Instant book" feature. We also have a discount with a local car rental agency.

So after booking and receiving the address I was a little disappointed because the cottage sits mostly behind the house. We arrived late on a holiday so I was able to reach out to the host and get the cottage pre stocked with some basic needs. This was the beginning of an amazing trip! The next morning I learned the beach house is actually several different units. However, even with that we all quickly made friends with each other. The beach was never crowded and there was plenty of room for everyone! Snorkeling at the end of the dock was stunning so many fish! We even saw a starfish just past the dock. We kayaked to the reef and saw more starfish, stingrays and sea urchins! If you are looking for some fancy place this isn’t it. If you are looking to just chill, spend time with your family and relax then this is absolutely the place you want to be! The maids were in and out all the time and always happy to answer any questions or help with any needs! We all agreed this was the best family vacation we have been on so far and are already looking forward to coming back!!

Relaxing Getaway

My wife and I stayed in the cottage which was comfortable and met all of our expectations. We enjoyed beautiful sunrises each morning from the deck with our coffee. We enjoyed sitting on the amazing beach, swimming in the new pool, snorkeling around the dock, and kayaking in the ocean. All in all a great stay.

Nice quiet. Private little cottage

Just Awesome

The place worked out great for us. Most times there was absolutely nobody else as far as you could see either direction on the beach! The snorkeling under the old dock in front of this property is very good! Tukka restaurant, Morrits and the dive bar were all near by for good food and drinks. Property staff was very welcoming.

If you're looking for a place off the beaten path, this is it. Isolated and quiet with great beaches. Solid dining options near by, water sports near by, very chill vibe. The beach front location was a great place to decompress without the tourist crowds of the West side. The recent hurricane washed a lot of plastic onto the sand of East End Colliers Point, hopefully it's getting cleaned up as it's prevalent while you're snorkeling inside the cove of the breakwaters as well as when you walk up the beach.The Cayman Cottage was okay for 6 days. The photos of the property are quite dated. Still, a comfortable stay for early season mid-November. The pool was great, the beach front ocean was great, but the hot tub never worked during our stay. Neither did the locks on the Cottage. We had to devise an exit strategy every night to leave for dinner. Eventually the battery keypad died and we had no means to lock the property the last two days of our stay. All of this was communicated to the host.. A new lock was on the patio table as we were loading the car to leave. I understand that we were early in the season, however, the property looked like an active construction site on all sides littered with rusted equipment, pallets of flooring, pieces of exterior trim, a dead air conditioning compressor, and exposed electrical near the pool. I'm sure it's been rectified as the season begins, however, the overall appearance of the property was a bit of a letdown.

We celebrated our wedding anniverasary at the cottage. It was absolutely beautiful! Everyone we encountered was pleasant and friendly. Lorraine greeted us when we got there. The cottage was beautiful and clean. We enjoyed having our own private beach. The island was beautiful! There was plenty to see and do. The local food was delicious. Our favorites were One Stop, Big Tree BBQ, Vivine's Kitchen and The Italian Kitchen. We would definitely return.

Peaceful Paradise

Totally enjoyed our stay. Location is in the East End of the island, which is away from the bustle of cruise ships/7-mile beach. Private beach with beautiful sunrises. Affordable and modern accommodations. Only hiccup was thought we would be the only ones on the property. There is actually 5 rental units. But, we met several couples and it only enhanced our stay. Lorraine, the property manager is a gem and she is there to make your stay great!. Will definitely go back.

Lazy Days on the Beach

We really loved how we were right on the beach. Yes, our cottage was behind the main house, but it's still right there! It was great to just walk out to our own private beach and not worry about hauling all our stuff or crowds. We also really enjoyed using the provided kayaks and paddle boards. There was plenty of interesting sea life to see snorkeling around the dock. Cottage was cozy with plenty of space to sleep and hang out. It was a pleasant surprise that both bathrooms each had a shower! Deck and patio areas were lovely and picturesque. I recommend Tukka restaurant for future visitors! We had zero issues needing owner attention while we were there.Feedback to owner: Need new can opener (neither worked well). We would have liked a TV upstairs to watch from the lovely large couch. A broom or handheld vacuum handy for sweeping away tracked in sand would be nice.

Cozy Beach Cottage

This property was perfect for my family of 3. The location was on the East side of the island, away from the cruise ships and hustle and bustle of tourists. It was quiet and very comfortable. A car was necessary and the best way to explore the island. Mother nature threw us a bit of a curveball with the sargassum (seaweed), but we were able to swim at the private beach with no problem. Water shoes are recommended. Our best meals were at Tukka, Big Tree BBQ and Over The Edge. When we return, we will definitely stay at this property. It was great. Exactly as described and excellent communication with the property management.

A cute, clean place in an idyllic location

We had a truly wonderful time staying at the Cayman Cottage by the Sea. Sandra responded to all of our messages promptly, was extremely helpful, professional and pleasant to communicate with. The property manager Alden was amazingly prompt, capable and really helpful, too. The cottage is very homey, clean, well-stocked with plenty of towels and is in very close proximity to the beach. The location is fantastic if you want to avoid the typical resort crowds. One of our favorite things during our stay was watching the sunrise every morning from the main deck, which has a lovely view of the ocean, just steps away from our door. Sandra provided a great list of places to eat, things to do, and other helpful information about the area. We tried a couple of the restaurants she recommended, and the food and service was terrific. Based on our all-around great experience here, we highly recommend this property.

Relaxing

If you want a quiet place to relax that is close to the beach—this is it. The water was great. There is an ocean view from the upper deck. We had some internet issues initially, but Lorraine was helpful. The upstairs bath has a tub with hand sprayer but no stand up shower. There is a small grocery store and liquor store a few minutes away. We loved Taco Cantina—go on a Thursday for 2 for one tacos and margs, but call ahead for a reservation. We used the kayaks but did not use the hot tub. The kitchen had adequate housewares. This is the quiet side of the island/-about 40 min from Georgetown, so plan accordingly.

Great Place to Stay!

The location is perfect-- the East End really allowed us get away from cruise ship crowds and tourists. Yet, when we wanted to go to 7-mile beach, it's just a 45 minute drive. It does have several great snorkeling sites, too. We would recommend renting a car to stay at the cottage, then you are free to explore the entire island. The cottage was perfect for our family of 4. It is super clean and it has a nice lay-out. Nadine, the owner, is wonderful-- we truly enjoyed talking with her and she was very helpful. She ensured that we had everything we needed-- she even got a pizza pan for us, so we could cook pizza for our kids! She is a fun person, and her energy spread to make our visit fun. The beach out front is gorgeous-- with very few people in the area. The old dock makes a wonderful habitat to many species of colorful fish, so we snorkeled here daily! We highly recommend the Cottage by the Sea. (Hi, Nadine! Thank you!)

About the host

Hosted by Lorraine, Property Manager

Host profile image
You will meet Lorraine --- your property manager. She is your point of contact once you reach the island. Great sense of humour and infectious laugh. You'll enjoy meeting her. She's on the property very early in the morning, and pops in throughout the day. If you need anything at all, just ask her.

Why they chose this property

This quaint cottage is located literally steps away from a powdery sand beach and ocean that is good for swimming or snorkelling. Guests have scuba dived here too, but it's quite a long swim out to the reef.

What makes this property unique

It's a very economical alternative if you have a lot of children or 2 families travelling together with kids. The 2nd floor is one huge bedroom with a total of 5 beds. Perfect for 2 or 3 adults and kids, too small for more than 3 or 4 adults.

If there are more in your family, then you can also rent one of our other properties at hte SAME location:
* Cayman Beach House (3 or 4 bedrooms)
* Cayman Snuggle Beach Apt. (1 or 2 bedrooms)
* Blue Sea Hideaway Studio (1 or 2 bedrooms)
