About this property
15% OFF - select summer weeks!
Tatenda - meaning 'Thank you' in a South African dialect - is luxury beachfront home on Grand Cayman's prestigious South Sound and offers a remarkable and relaxing vacation, corporate or wellness retreat.
Centrally, yet quietly located Tatenda is perfectly placed on the reef protected beach, minutes from George Town, Owen Roberts International Airport (GCM) and only a few miles from the world famous Seven Mile Beach with all the shops, bars, restaurants and resorts – which some find to be a little too crowded.
This stunning property is perfect for multigenerational families or up to 6 couples – ask us about the family and access friendly bedrooms.
Gathering and entertaining areas are located through-out the villa and are furnished to the highest of standards and still comfortable.
Stroll along the shoreline, try some beachcombing and depending on the tide snorkel or paddleboard in the calm, warm Caribbean blue waters.
Villa highlights:
Gourmet kitchen fully fitted with additional double ovens, warming draws, 5 burner cooktop ideal for family friendly dining to Private Chef experiences.
Family and breakfast room open onto the shaded outdoor dining with 6 burner barbecue, hotplate and fridge.
There’s sun and shade for everyone on the palm-dotted lawn, beachfront deck and poolside terrace.

Prices are based on 12 person occupancy with $100/per person/per night for each occupant over 12. The 6-bedroom listing can potentially sleep up to 16.
*Please note: Tatenda, like many villas along the south and east coast, has a shallow beach entry via swim paths amongst some silty seagrass patches for the first 50-75' from shore. South Sound can also experience the same seasonal sargassum that affects most of the Caribbean. Sargassum is a generally harmless floating seagrass that is more unsightly than anything.
Fortunately, the Seven Mile Beach area (SMB) of Grand Cayman does not ordinarily see sargassum accumulation. All beaches in Cayman are public up to the high-water mark so guests can visit the beautiful beach areas along SMB for sandy, walk-in swimming if the beach entry is not to your liking – ask us for daily recommendations.
Grand Cayman is a friendly and generally safe island so you'll want to visit many different beaches during your stay. Smith Cove, Spotts Beach, Governor's Beach, Tiki Beach, Public Beach, etc. are excellent beaches to visit and offer the beautiful swim in water. -VRBO disclosure - pool and beach area within the coverage area of security camera.
