Envision is the new name for this recently renovated beach house on Cayman's North Side with backyard snorkeling, a sandy beachfront, plus a private pool with spa. Complimentary spa heat is provided from Thanksgiving to Easter.
The home sits on an oceanfront lot with a vacant lot to the east and the North Side cemetery to the west. The cemetery is visible from the driveway. Tall foliage and a large buffer area block its view from other parts of the home.
Reasonably priced for larger families, Envision is a two-level home featuring an open floor plan with a large family room on the lower level. Furnished with a comfortable sectional sofa and large television, guests will find plenty of space to spread out, relax, and enjoy the sweeping ocean views. Exposed beams and vaulted ceilings accentuate the views, filling the home with natural light.
A small den sits off the family room furnished with a desk and sleeper sofa. It's a nice spot to curl up with a book for some quiet time or a daytime nap. Work-from-home professionals can retreat to the den to connect remotely with the office while vacationing in style.
The new saltwater pool with spa overlooks a large sandy beachfront, leading to excellent snorkeling just steps from the back door. The beach offers plenty of sunning space with no immediate neighbors to the west and North Side's cemetery beach to the east. The beach is lined with palm trees and equipped with a beach cabana for shade plus seaside hammocks.
A large oceanfront sun porch on the edge of the pool deck is the perfect place to dine or relax after a day of sun and surf. The dining table is usually set up with seating for 6-8 guests.
The home's five bedrooms are spread across the upper and lower levels. The primary suite plus two bedrooms sit on the lower level with the remaining 2 bedrooms upstairs. The upper-level bedrooms are ideal for kids and teens due to their low ceilings.

The outdoor sun decks flank both sides of the pool with 2-3 sun loungers each. An outdoor kitchen on the west side of the villa features ample counter space and a propane grill for island cookouts.

Beach Notes
The entire island is only 22 miles wide from west to east, so you are never too far from anywhere on Grand Cayman.
The beach at Envision offers great reef-protected snorkeling while also having a sandy beachfront adjacent to the North Side Cemetery Beach.
The beaches on the North Side usually have plenty of white sand, but can also have some spots of rocky ironshore. With the abundant marine life we have in the water, you will want to wear pool shoes or fins for foot protection.
The big draw to this area is its proximity to the Rum Point Club, a popular beach club open to the public with a barefoot beach, watersport rentals, food + drinks, plus pick-up beach volleyball games. Also nearby is the Kaibo, a beachfront dining destination with a casual bar and grill, a fine dining restaurant, and a breakfast cafe.
Lastly, we have two large resorts in the east end, Morritt's and The Reef. Both offer manicured beaches as well as restaurants, beach bars, a modern grocery store, a liquor store, and souvenir shops.
General Grand Cayman Beach Notes
All beaches in Grand Cayman are technically public since the Crown owns up to the high water mark.
The shoreline quality behind your property may vary slightly from the images on our website due to shifting tides and weather patterns. The next-door beach is also always available for your use.
Ocean Debris & Sargassum Seaweed
Beaches in Grand Cayman may also experience floating ocean debris and sargassum weed seasonally.
Sargassum is a harmless seaweed that has increased in frequency during the summer. Our owners make efforts to remove heavy sargassum and will have the beach raked before 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.
