Old Man Bay House | Christmas Palms: Serene Villa with an Oceanfront Pool and Private Beach

4 Bedroom House in Old Man Bay, Grand Cayman

***Property Overview***
Welcome to Christmas Palms! This spectacular villa sits directly oceanfront in Old Man Bay on the north coast.
The villa's luxurious interiors are complemented by beautiful multi-windowed views, an oceanfront freshwater pool, and--of course--excellent snorkeling just steps off the pool deck. Many coral heads hosting schools of juvenile fish await you!
The open-concept living and kitchen area is the real show-stopper here. Stunning ocean views fill the living area where guests can relax on plush couches, or step out directly onto the pool deck to enjoy the Caribbean sun.
A large full kitchen comes equipped with modern appliances, dishware, cookware, and cutlery for vacationing chefs. Guests can also cookout on the villa's custom-built masonry charcoal grill. A screened porch off the kitchen provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining with beautiful ocean views.
Christmas Palms includes the sandier lot next door to the east that has a small beach area for private sunbathing.
Exceptional snorkeling can be found directly behind the villa, as well as another 500 yards to the east behind famous Connolly's Cove. Amazing scuba diving is nearby as well.

***Beach Notes***
All beaches in Grand Cayman are technically public since the Crown owns up to the high watermark. Be advised, the beach or water entry behind your property may vary slightly from the images displayed due to shifting weather and tide patterns. The next-door beach is also always available for your use. We advise guests to wear foot protection (pool socks or aqua shoes) when entering the ocean to avoid injury on coral heads, ironshore, or rocks.
***Ocean Debris & Sargassum Seaweed***
Beaches in Grand Cayman may also experience floating ocean debris and sargassum weed seasonally. Sargassum is a generally harmless floating seaweed that has increased in frequency in recent years. Although sargassum is an unsightly nuisance, it is largely seasonal in summer. Our owners do make efforts to remove heavy sargassum and will have the beach raked prior to your arrival.
Should sargassum be extremely heavy behind your property, we will reach out to the owner for alternative solutions which may include a partial refund or relocation. We try our best to work around mother nature.

Summary: The location was perfect for our family. It was away from the crowds which was ideal for our family. We went to seven mile beach and Rum Point which we enjoyed. Rum Point is a 5 minute drive from the house. The kitchen was fully equipped which was perfect to make meals and sit by the pool with the beautiful ocean view.

Summary: This house is right on the north shore. The beach is very rocky but right outside the door. There's a spit of sand to sit on but there are beautiful beaches a drive away. Many of the walk-to beaches were rocky but Kaibo, Rum Point and Starfish beach are a drive away and sandy and calm. Take note: while there are 3.5 baths in the house the guest room has a 1/2 bath and the others are ensuite, meaning the guest room occupant has to go into another bedroom to shower. This wasn't ideal as we had all adults. This felt unclear in the listing. The house is well equipped, clean, the pool is smaller than appears in the listing. All in all a lovely stay. Groceries are nearby but the large well equipped store is near the airport. I recommend picking up or having groceries delivered when arriving.

Summary: First time to GC and found this amazing house! Absolutely perfect for 6 adults (can accommodate 10) who were looking for some R&R away from the tourist areas on the island (SMB). This house was magnificent and in a wonderful location in Old Man Bay on the North Side (easy to drive back to SMB for a day trip and not that far). We did rent 2 cars - very reasonable and easy to drive on opposite side of the road! There were plenty of restaurants nearby, local places as well, and right between Chisolms and Fosters for groceries. Jacques Liquor store is next to Fosters & there is one next to the Welcome Center (where there is a very nice gym). Also, house is located only 10-15 minutes to Rum Pointe and Kaibo - both are a MUST! Three rooms in the house upstairs each have a queen bed and full private bathrooms, as well as a fourth room downstairs with 2 twin bed next to a powder room. The pool is not heated but you don't need it to be - so refreshing! And the VIEWS out back - indescribable! The small "beach" area out the back is rocky (bring water shoes) but was perfect for launching the 2 kayaks. The kitchen was very well-equipped for all of our needs, very clean, and we also used the BBQ out back too (you may need to buy some charcoal). The whole process of checking in at the Welcome Center was so easy and they are so friendly & helpful with picking up snorkeling gear for everyone in our group! I would totally recommend staying here and would love to return some day!!

Summary: This is perfect if you want to be away from crowds. The location was great and some of the best snorkeling was right by the property. We enjoyed the privacy and the pool as well. Couldn't have asked for anything else.

Summary: The house was perfect for our family of 5. We arrived on the island a little early and contacted Juanita. She had everything clean and ready for our arrival. The view from every part of the property was beautiful. The pool was a perfect place to begin and end each day.

Summary: It was very nice place. Several things outdated but we were not there for esthetics. It was very hard to get into the water. It was very rocky at the two points of entry. We did have few problems with seaweed most I blame on storms out at sea. You are on the north side so quite compared to 7 mile beach.
