Location for the win!!

The location of this property could not be any better! We basically had our own personal reef with excellent snorkeling right behind the house. The screened in porch/eating area was lovely and the back deck was awesome. The lounge chairs were really great for sitting out on the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Maria's home. Thank you Maria!

Family Vacation

Our family had a wonderful stay at this property. We enjoyed eating out on the screened in porch and sipping coffee on the deck every morning. The kids loved playing in the sand and our family saw some beautiful fish snorkeling. Maria was such a lovely host. We are so grateful for the wonderful memories made on this family vacation!

Home away from home

Maria is awesome! House location cant be beat, roll out of bed and get your snorkel on! Quiet and peaceful, its in a great spot to see many attractions but be away from the commotion. We stayed 7 days and had dinner there about half the time. House is well stocked for just about any beach adventure you can think of. SOOO many shells to find. The screened porch and deck are great wish my house had them. Hopefully we can visit again someday. Cheers!

Loved the house and the north side of the Cayman Islands

Great house in a beautiful setting. We were able to kayak and snorkel easily from the property, and loved the private beach with hammocks, decks and a screened in porch. We’ve stayed at 7 mile beach in the past and preferred the quiet, snorkeling and sites- starfish beach- of this area. The house was great for our family of 6- clean and very comfortable. Would stay again!!

Wonderful trip

This property was wonderful. There were 3 of us so we each had a bedroom. The location was off the beaten path, but that was our desire. It was quiet and we rarely saw others around our little bit of paradise.nThe house was great and had everything you would need and then some. The extras were super helpful, beach towels, water shoes, snorkel gear, etc. Pick this house and you will not go wrong. We will be back!

Trip of a lifetime!

Maria is the best host we have ever had at a rental! Her home is beautiful and in the most magical location. Gorgeous views from all rooms and a huge deck overlooking your own private beach. She welcomed us with a personal visit and showed us all around the property and even had a delicious gift waiting for us. Literally hundreds of conch shells within a short walk and other tiny shells with beautiful sea glass to collect. Tide pools with hermit crabs, sea anemone, sea urchin, and tiny fish are next to a sandy entry into the beautiful water. We snorkeled right out front and saw puffer fish, lobster, lion fish, and hundreds of brightly colored fish. Maria has some water shoes there which I definitely recommend and we used fins as well. There is a bit of a current so we used pool noodles that were provided for safety while snorkeling and a few days it was too windy to go out on the north side to snorkel so we just drove to cemetery beach on SMB to snorkel there in the calm waters. The wind kicked up some trash on the beach which we quickly scooped up into bags so it was not a big issue. The house is accurately represented in the pictures and is very well stocked. The grocery store within walking distance was small and expensive but definitely convenient! We had some potential flight issues coming home and Maria was so helpful and generous with her time and home. Very private, great location (need a rental car), and we will definitely be back! Thanks Maria!

Breathtaking

This property is even better in person. The house was spacious and well furnished. The screened in porch and HUGE deck were amazing - and the views...can't say enough about the views. We chose this property so we could be beachfront and away from the tourist area. It was well worth it - secluded and peaceful, yet a 15 minute drive from some fantastic local restaurants, and getting to Georgetown was an easy drive. Maria was fantastic to work with as well.

About the host

Hosted by Maria Alberga

Host profile image
My husband and 1 with 3 small children moved to this island in March1978. We instantly recognized it was a heavenly place to live and raise our kids, and it has been a very gratifying experience over the years. We were welcomed with open arms and assisted in every way by the community. We had a wonderful life with the kids growing up in a safe and friendly environment, and meeting all the wonderful people who reside in the area.
Being a Real Estate Broker for 26 years I enjoy meeting people and sharing my knowledge of Cayman with my guests in every way I can to make their stay a fulfilling experience. Living only 5 minutes away from the property, makes it so convenient to always be available.

Why they chose this property

This property is a true Gem and a dream come true for me and the family. It was a property I admired every time I drove by for many years, knowing in my heart it was perfect in so many ways. WELL I wasted no time, I moved forward in acquiring the property in 2004 from a delightful elderly couple who shared their special love and life here in Cayman, she was an artist loved by all in North Side and Cayman Kai, and he an Engineer who actually built the home back in 1984, we became instant friends. It was a dream come true and a gift from Heaven. After many months of renovations and changes to the property, including planting the garden, I was totally pleased with the beauty that was created, and I wanted nothing more but to share this lovely property with friends, family and all the wonderful guests that I am so looking forward to meeting and having them share a home filled with love and all the necessities to make it truly a home away from home...

What makes this property unique

One of the many benefits of this home is that it is elevated 16ft above sea level, so the incredible views of the Ocean from every room allows one to have the peace of mind of privacy. Having only one neighbor, who visits occasionally , creates the freedom for one to enjoy their vacation to the fullest without disturbing anyone. Sitting on 185" of white sandy beach creates vast space for kids and family to find incredible treasure and lots of shells, to enjoy many of the relaxing areas this property provides , be it swinging in a hammock in the small garden with a good book, relaxing on the large deck with their favorite drink inhaling the beautiful scenery or relaxing on the beach catching the rays.
A Government designated Marine Park filled with exquisite coral and sea life is steps away, where one can enjoy the beautiful underwater sceneries without the disturbance of boats or jet skies. If weather permits enjoy a little exercise with the kayaks or one of the outdoor games provided .
The location of this property is also unique in that it is minutes away from Cayman Kai, Kaibo and Queens Highway so it gives one a great choice of restaurants, beaches and other activities in the general area.
Lastly having a Grocery that provides a great assortment of food and liquor within 2 minutes walking distance of the property is a great convenience.
This property creates a wonderful island feel for all who chooses to come to create new experiences during their stay on this beautiful serene part of the island.
