We had the best time at Breathtaking View! The location was ideal! Being right around the corner from Rum Beach was wonderful. Very relaxing and low key! Our daughters, ages 8 and 12 had the best time! Being close to Starfish Point, Crystal Caves, and Bio Bay was ideal!
We really loved this condo. Very homey feeling with everything you could need, even cinnamon for the French toast. Loved the view and privacy. Would definitely stay here again. Did not disappoint.
My wife, toddler, friend and I stayed here for a few days in May and it was a wonderful experience. My wife and I have stayed at 3 other condos at the Retreat and this was our favorite of the group.
Very clean and functional with amazing views from the primary and living rooms. The Retreat continues to be a hidden gem we love to stay, and we will definitely come back to this condo in the future.
We had a great time in Cayman! It was our first visit to the island, and we will definitely be back. The property was well stocked and comfortable. It was conveniently located for many of the excursions we planned, but the drive to the other side of the island was pretty easy as well. We found the island very safe and lovely, and everyone we met was hospitable. The restaurants we tried were all incredible as well!
We had a nice stay. Debated about whether to give 5 or 4 stars. There was nothing wrong with the place, nicely stocked, had snorkel gear, plenty of towels. Still needs a little updating to make it 5 stars. If you are looking for a clean and comfortable place at a great location, then this unit will suit you just fine.
Windy and curants high on the north end during our stay, but the west beaches were nice. We did see lots of stingrays snoekling to the left of the dock on the sand bar. Lots of sea grass and not much coral until you are way out in the boating channel though. Enjoyed the rum point restaurant and free beach area. Lots of amenities at this condo, water toys, books, sunscreen, full kitchen, screened in porch. Great for a remote quiet spot. Definitely rent a car though, it's going to take you an hour to get there from the airport and taxies are very expensive.
We enjoyed our stay in this very clean, comfortable, nicely decorated, and well equipped condo. Interiors are bright and the views of the beach and ocean are wonderful! We liked the location on the second floor and the quiet side of the complex. We have stayed at the Retreat many times and this is our favorite of the smaller 2 BR units.
The owner communicated quickly and arranged immediately to have a small plumbing problem addressed (even though it was the week-end). There were adequate paper products and soaps for our week’s stay which was a nice extra!
The only thing we missed was not having a dining table/chairs on the screened porch. But the views from the inside dining area were very nice and I’m sure some likely prefer cushioned seating on the porch to dining chairs and there isn’t room for both.
We would definitely rent this unit again!
Very comfortable accommodations with a great view. Secluded and peaceful location in Rum Point with a quiet beach club next door. There is also a dock next door for easy pickup and drop off for excursions. Short boat ride to Stingray City, reef for snorkeling and fishing, and the bioluminescent bay is really close.Also, the Kaibo marina is a very short drive away and there is a grocery store a few miles away. Plenty of parking available and a really nice pool.
This place is wonderful. Very clean space with everything that you could want. Lots of snorkel gear with snorkeling right outside of the condo. Floats were great for the calm waters. The kitchen was well equipped. We had a great stay.
Condo was nice and clean and well stocked. Laid back atmosphere. The beach could use a few extra chairs.Next to Rum Point Bar was nice, snorkeling was fun, and everyone we met were very nice. No regrets
Words can't describe how amazing this home was. I'm a bit of a neurotic cleaner, and my family laughs that I typically have to clean and sanitize every rental we've stayed at in past, but this home was spotless. First time ever I was able to unpack and just relax. We were steps from this gorgeous private beach where we snorkeled almost every day. Skates, sea turtles, rainbow parrot fish, stingrays everywhere. We were also on the very quiet and natural side of the island near all the beautiful attractions. It's pouring right now as we prepare to leave . I'm actually glad because I'm not sure we would have left if it was another sparkling day. lOl! Thank you Laura for being such a lovely host and sharing this paradise.
The view is as advertised gorgeous. Everything you need to cook. Place is clean. Air works well. Master bed mattress is pretty soft so we slept in the guest room. There are several pairs of goggle snorkels and fins to use. Beach chairs out front were plentiful. LovelyOutdoor charcoal grill to use and briquettes were in the unit. Surroundings were quiet. Walking distance to star fish point. Spectacular snorkeling right out front. Red Sea rentals next door for sailing jet skis etc.
My husband and I brought our two daughters, ages 5 and 8, seeking a warm, relaxing break from a chilly, fast-paced life. We enjoyed a wonderful week at this property. It had everything we could need, and then some! The host was very responsive and helpful - even went out of her way to ensure chess and checkers were at the property before we arrived. We felt safe. Swimming over at Rum Point beach was our daily favorite activity. We rented a car and were able to buy groceries and enjoyed cooking and eating in most meals. Would definitely stay again. Thank you, LJ!
Had a wonderful time. The property was clean and very quiet. The condo was stocked with everything that we needed.Easy access to the beach and Rum Point. Thank you for a wonderful times
