This was our 4th stay at The Yellow House and as always, it was perfect. The owners are so accommodating and quickly responded to any questions; seems like they strive to make sure we have another great vacation in their home and around the island. Upon entering, the home was very clean and beautifully decorated. The Master Bedroom is large with a nice Master Bath. Our children stayed in the 2nd bedroom with their own full bathroom which is a great plus for us. New this year, the house added 2 "cots" which are so comfortable with a memory foam mattress; my kids loved them and I definitely could use them in my home (very modern, fold up into attractive bench). Sometimes they would sleep on the pull out sofa in the Family Room with a foam mattress topper and watch TV or movies late night. We rarely watched TV because we enjoy our daily routine of breakfast, beach all day into dinnertime, sunset, then back to the house for showers, games and pool time. They have Direct TV with a lot of channels and a DVD player - all worked great. Another bonus, which my kids (and our data plans) especially appreciated was WiFi! The pool was really nice; love having coffee in the morning, watching and listening to the beautiful parrots & amusing roosters; a huge lizard visited us too. This little area of cute homes is across the street from Heritage Beach from where we watched the sunsets. I may be going on a "mom's trip" soon and can't wait to check out the newly screened-in side porch.
The owners gave us new recommendations for places/beaches we haven't seen in prior years: We went to Tiki Beach which had a huge outdoor covered bar/restaurant and nice beach. My kids wanted to make sure we fit in taking all the fun photo's - the Blow Holes, jumping off small cliffs at Smith Barcadere (formerly Smith Cove) - nice snorkeling there too, the "flip-flop" tree, etc. In Georgetown by the water, there are guys under canopies filleting fresh fish that you select; kids never saw anything like it; the fish was excellent on the grill back at the house. Two years ago, we went the Sting Ray City and swam with dolphins - such great experiences and great photo's too. Rum Pointe is a favorite spot - picturesque setting with good food, best rum runners, hammocks, snorkeling and WiFi (in a certain area) - kids played sand volleyball for hours and met a lot of other kids.
We used to go to Florida every year, but now it's Cayman - it's a real vacation!
