Welcome to Blue Water Villa, recently renovated by new owners. This gated estate sits directly oceanfront in Rum Point, along Grand Cayman's north coast. 

This palatial villa offers a gorgeous pool deck complete with an oceanfront heated spa to soak in and enjoy the sparkling Caribbean views. A large sandy beach with phenomenal snorkeling is mere footsteps away. For snorkel enthusiasts with a taste for vacationing in luxury, some Blue Water therapy is what the doctor ordered!

From the moment you step into the tiled foyer, it becomes apparent that Blue Water Villa is an exceptional experience. The interior is tasteful yet decadent. Large windows and French glass doors flood the interior with Caribbean sunshine no matter the time of year. The main foyer, dining area, and kitchen open onto the tiled pool deck, which offers two shaded pavilions. Guests can unwind and soak in the views from the lounge chairs, or enjoy evening drinks at the outdoor bar before throwing dinner on the poolside propane grill.

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 oceanfront homes in Rum Point offer great reef protected snorkeling. The beaches usually have plenty of white sand, but also can have spots of rocky “ironshore” with natural rock formations.

The closer you get to Rum Point, usually the sandier the beach as well as swimming. Either way, with the abundant marine life we have in the water, you will want to wear pool shoes or fins for foot protection. The prevailing trade winds from the east also makes flying insects less of a nuisance—many of the homes in Rum Point don’t even need a screened porch.

The big draw to this area is the proximity to the Rum Point Club, a public beach club that offers a fantastic barefoot beach, many water sports, a restaurant bar and grill, a gift shop, and pick-up beach volleyball games. Also near Rum Point is the Kaibo Yacht Club restaurant, bar and marina.

Lastly, we have 2 large resorts in the east end (Morritt's and The Reef) that offer manicured beaches as well as restaurants, a modern grocery store, liquor store, gift shops, a Subway sandwich shop, and a cafe/pastry shop.

These two resorts also offer scuba, snorkel trips, jet skis, windsurfing, kiteboarding, ocean front pools and bar service.

General Grand Cayman Beach Notes

All beaches in Grand Cayman are technically “public” since the Queen owns up to the high water mark and the shoreline quality behind your property may vary seasonally. Be advised that the beach or water entry behind your property may vary slightly from the images on our website because of the weather. 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 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 weed 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.

Grand Cayman Villas

Wonderful home for a family trip

         
Review by KL on 07/08/2019
5 out of 5
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The pool area is the best part of the property by far. Plenty of nice outdoor porch furniture and a wonderful pool. The kitchen is well stocked along with the laundry room (tons of pool towels). It was very helpful to have a second fridge/freezer. Lots of toys for the sand for the kids and floats for the pool. The master bed was very comfortable to sleep in. I can\'t speak to the others. The main room furnishings were also very nice. Wendy and Steve were very gracious property managers and the staff at Grand Cayman villas were very responsive too. We look forward to the scheduled 2019 improvements to the bathrooms to include more full showers for our next stay as well as the stair improvements. If you want a reasonably priced private chef or a large family meal delivered, definitely contact Chef Steph. We also really enjoyed our meals at Kaibo upstairs (make a res here in advance). We also enjoyed Tukka, The Lighthouse, The Italian Kitchen, and Agua (Camana Bay). I don\'t recommend eating at the Rum Point restaurant at night (terrible service and warm white wine...). Casual meals at the beach restaurant were fine. We look forward to our next stay!

Amazing Home and Location

This was our third time staying at Villa Zara. While we miss the local managers from prior stays, the new managers were fantastic! Most importantly the upgrades to the home are amazing. Much more contemporary look, new paint in every room, new furniture, 5th bedroom, on and on. We are already planning our trip for 2020!

Amazing Family Villa

         
Review by Emily on 04/27/2019
5 out of 5
Villa Zara is an amazing family home! We had 10 total adults and children and never felt crowded. Large bedrooms and huge living areas. Kitchen well appointed. The outside pool patio is very large and the covered gazebo offers relief from direct sun. The beach is sandy and the water very calm. We snorkeled every day, and thank you Grand Cayman Villas for the use of the snorkel gear. Welcome staff was friendly and helpful. Rum Point, Kaibo, starfish point are all must visits. Dinners at Kiabo, Tukka, Lighthouse were top notch. Taco Cantina ended up being our favorite restaurant!!! So much to do, no one gets bored!!!

Villa Zara = Villa Extraordinaire!!!

Just back from our week at Villa Zara. We considered 4 homes in Rum Point before picking Villa Zara. We booked before the new photos were taken, and the changes and upgrades to the home are amazing. Obviously the new owners love their home and take pride in her! They should! Much credit to Grand Cayman Villas for guiding us through the process. We will be back to Grand Cayman and hopefully to Villa Zara!

Great Vacation

The house, location, property manager, etc. were all fantastic. We had a totally relaxing week. I would highly recommend staying here.

Villa Zara -Excellent family experience!

Wonderful setting on the N side, tremendous views and great sunrise. The new pool and hot tub is a huge success. Very private and secure and lots of room to stretch out as we had 10 in our group. Steve (Foz) was an awesome host and there whenever we needed anything. His attitude and service was fantastic. I understand a new kitchen and other changes are in the works, once completed, this will be a 5 star house and hard to imagine many nicer places to stay. We hope to return to Villa Zara and would not hesitate to rent the house again!
Manager Response:

Thank you for your stay.

Villa Zara will undergoing amazing upgrades in the near future with the new owners. New pictures coming soon as well.Many upgrades already. The Victorian look has softened, heavy curtains are gone, all rooms freshly painted, exterior as well.

We had the best holiday here 2 couples and 4 kids. Staff were so helpful, we arranged for groceries to be at the villa for our arrival and a meal to be cooked the first day. It was delicious. The house and amenities were great. I would highly recommend this villa to anyone. We got massages on the balcony total luxury.... Bliss *stayed 2010*

A Real Gem

Villa Zara is actually as good or better than the pictures; a real gem. It\\\'s beautifully manicured, fully stocked, and gorgeous. Even when the weather was stormy we always felt comfortable and safe. Delightful stay.

Spectacular Sunrises In Paradise

         
Review by JS on 07/17/2018
5 out of 5
Location is everything – and Villa Zara’s location is perfect. We would begin our days by watching the sunrise – which were spectacular. After breakfast our choices were many – relax by poolside, swim, walk the beach or snorkel, paddleboard or kayak. Having snorkeled in many other Caribbean locations, we think the snorkeling at Villa Zara beach is outstanding. And the ability to walk out and snorkel whenever the mood hit was wonderful. And then there’s the Villa. We loved it – plenty of room for our family of 9. Yvonne and Phil took such great care of us. We didn’t have to worry about anything. They are great people who really made us feel at home at the Villa. They were able to strike the perfect balance between personal and professional!

Amazing Views!

         
Review by FDR on 07/17/2018

Our week at Villa Zara and Grand Cayman was one of the best family vacations we’ve done! The house is absolutely beautiful with the most amazing views out each room. The pool, hot tub and beach area were also perfect for our family. Our active kids ages 13, 11 and 7 always found something to do. We also loved the location on the Island and the laid back style of the Rum Point area. Enjoyed exploring the beaches, restaurants and more. A special thank you to Yvonne and Phil for all that you did during our stay. You were so very welcoming to us and took such great care of the house and us each day. We look forward to another vacation here someday!

Serene and Picturesque

         
Review by JH on 07/17/2018
5 out of 5
Impeccable – is the very first word that comes to mind when trying to describe our amazing stay here at Villa Zara. The property and home offer the ultimately serene and picturesque setting for the vacation of a lifetime! Yvonne and Phil made our stay perfect. They were so helpful and thoughtful from the moment we arrived from the airport. They care deeply about their guests experience and that remains evident through the last minute of your stay. The house, infinity pool, hot tub, spacious and comfortable gathering and dining areas left us (6 adults) wanting for absolutely nothing. The Island itself was friendly, easy to navigate and full of rich food and adventures. Yvonne and Phil were also helpful in steering us in the right direction. If we could give them and Villa Zara 6 stars, we would!! Yvonne even made one of our friends a cake for her birthday. Thank you SO much!!

Amazing Vacation!!

         
Review by RP on 07/17/2018

What an amazing vacation. We were two families with 5 young boys between us and Villa Zara exceeded all of our expectations. As first timers to Grand Cayman it was great having Yvonne and Phil to talk to each morning and get ideas on places to eat and the local sights. There was plenty to do in the Rum Point area but relaxing by the pool and exploring the waters behind the house were our highlights. The water and beach at Villa Zara is the best on its strip of the island. Excellent snorkeling and swimming in the numerous tide pools were some of our favorite activities with the boys. We all agreed this was one of our best vacations we’d ever had. We can’t thank Yvonne enough and the cupcakes she left for the boys throughout our trip made it extra special.

Perfect in Every Way!

We were a pack of 5 women looking for a place to celebrate 50th Birthdays and cannot imagine a better place to end up. The house was prefect in every way (location, location, location) and Yvonne and Phil did everything to address any requests. It’s a beautiful villa catering to a private and relaxing island experience. Definitely on my “favorites” list! We will be back. Melinda and crew (drunk&shameless) CT, USA p.s. make sure you try Yvonne’s yummy chocolate cake!

Truly Special Place

         
Review by LD on 07/17/2018

Villa Zara is truly a special place to enjoy all the Cayman Islands has to offer. The home itself is gorgeous, in a spectacular setting with the best personal beach on the Island! Yvonne and Phil made us feel right at home the minute we arrived. Yvonne knows the islands amenities and restaurants well and provided us with all the information we needed to make the right choices – particularly since we had windy and rainy weather for the first 3 days. The family enjoyed snorkeling (right off our own beach), kayaking, fishing, swimming with the stingrays and relaxing in the pool and hot tub. We had a family photo shoot on our beach and the patio which was lots of fun. Jenna our photographer was great. The restaurants on the Island were awesome and a highlight of our trip as well. We also enjoyed a few home cooked meals. We look forward to coming back again.

Villa Zara is Caribbean perfection. I spent a week here with my family to celebrate my 50th birthday. The Villa has all amenities located on site with the beach and snorkeling available rigth outside the lovely property. A special thank you to Yvonne and Phil for making our stay a special one. Upon our arrival they greeted us and made us feel at home. They were available to answer questions about the villa and the island. We loved the chocolate cake, cookies and the coconut water! Thank you for a memorable family vacation.

Incredible ocean front Villa with four suites. Spacious and well equipped for large groups. Pristine outdoors with heated pool & jacuzzi, bar, gazebo and beach front - not to leave the premises for an entire week. Our hosts, Yvonne, was super nice, kind, and accommodating. She kept the house and premises impeccable and went above and beyond. She greeted us with a fabulous home-made chocolate cake, set up the Christmas decor and was very attentive to any need or questions we had. THANK YOU YVONNE. !!!

VILLA ZARA IS THE WAY TO GO!

e came here for celebrating our wedding at this incredible beachfront property. And what an amazing wedding it was! Nothing could have been more perfect and all the guests were amazed by the beauty of this place. One thing is how great the house and property, including the facilities are. But nothing is greater than the house manager Yvonne. From the very start after our booking she was super helpful suggesting vendors and giving tips. Always very responsive and positive! But when we met this lovely lady at the villa, we were amazed of how wonderful and helpful she was. Always doing her very best to make sure our stay was far and beyond. At the wedding day she was helping tremendously with making sure everything went smooth, and I credit her some of the reason it was such a success. When it was time to leave she even drove our parents to the airport! If you are considering doing your wedding at the beach on Grand Cayman, Villa Zara is the way to go! The same if you just want the most amazing Cayman villa experience. We could really not have been happier, and a thousand thanks again! Janne and Adel and our families What an amazing treasure to spend a glorious week here at Villa Zara. We loved the beautiful location and this was the PERFECT venue for Adel and Jannes wedding. Thank you Yvonne and Phil for everything!! Everett LOVED and learned to practice walking and climbing stairs. Wish we could stay another week! It was great to have great location for both our families to be together.

Amazing Home- Loved the Space and Fabulous View

         
Review by WW on 07/17/2018

We had an amazing time at Villa Zara! The home is amazing, we loved the space, the pool, the fabulous view and most of all the snorkeling right outside the back door. We saw so much sea life without leaving our house! We had friends stay a few houses down and they spent lots of time with us. So the large tables, big pool and grill were great for “entertaining”. Yvonne and Phil helped make our trip amazing! From the picking up of the house daily, to the wonderful recommendations and the genuine love and care they show to their guest! We hope to return soon!

It Feels Like Home!

Our stay at Villa Zara has been wonderful! The onsite management is superb. Each day the villa is cleaned to perfection and trash is removed. Bottled water is also replenished daily. The home is cared for and the view is spectacular. Try not to book too many excursions, you will want to spend some quality time at the pool enjoying the ocean. The caretakers were great with kids and always willing to chat or offer directions. Great time, hope to visit again! Thank you Yvonne and Phil!! Aaron, Heather & Baby “Kate” July 9th, 2017 Visiting Grand Cayman has always been a bucket list item. I’m so grateful to have shared it with my family in such a lovely home. Yvonne and Phil have been truly magnificent. Answering every question and taking care of all our needs. It truly felt like home. We enjoyed the home, view and fun excursions. But the best part was seeing all the cousins play and have fun!

What an amazing week! Villa Zara is breathtakingly beautiful. We so enjoyed our time on the beach and lounging by the beautiful pool area. We enjoyed snorkeling, fishing, the turtle farm, Stingray City and much more! Our favorite restaurant was Tukka. Everyone on the island has been so friendly and hospitable. Especially Yvonne and Phil! They greeted us our first day and Yvonne even made us a chocolate cake, much to the delight of the children! They helped make our visit in this beautiful place extra special!

Our time spent at Villa Zara was exceptional in every way. My husband and I had our older children and friends join us for our family vacation. Four from Alabama and two from New York. We also have a four year old son. All of the children had a fabulous time. My husband and I enjoyed private time with our family in this fabulous home, including cooking together and enjoying time at the pool and on the beach! There was truly something for everyone! It was so much better than staying at a resort. Phil and Yvonne were wonderful and inviting. They made sure that everything was perfect. Our little guy especially enjoyed the chocolate cupcakes that Yvonne so kindly baked for us. Villa Zara exceeded our expectations and we will definitely visit again in the future. Michelle and Bruce FairHope, Alabama. Had an incredible time with fantastic help! Beaches were great and the weather could not have been better. We hope to visit again sometime and wish Yvonne and Phil a great time in their retirement!

Wonderful family vacation at Villa Zara. The house was beautiful with awesome pool and beach. Plenty of activities including beach volleyball, snorkeling, kayaking and swimming.

In gratitude for your care and best wishes. Wahid, Christi and Joseph Sham Vancouver, BC, Canada Thank you Yvonne and Phil. You have been so gracious and helpful. Villa Zara truly is paradise.

We had hyped ourselves up on Villa Zara for months, and somehow it still exceeded our expectations! The house is stunning, the pool area and ocean view/access is sublime and Yvonne and Phil took extremely good care of us and the place. They had recommendations for anything and everything and were even sweet enough to bake me a cake for my birthday. The location of the house was ideal for us – away from the crowds but still close enough to Rum Point, Kaibo Beach, the East End and other places of interest. Probably the most memorable vacation anybody in our group has ever had, and Villa Zara really helped put it over the top.

Villa Zara Ranks at the Top!

         
Review by PA on 07/17/2018
5 out of 5
We have travelled to many places around the world - but Villa Zara ranks at the top. The house is beautiful, the pool is perfect and the on-premise staff made it our best vacation ever. We visited 7-Mile beach one day - it's one of the top rated beaches in the world. We rented seadoos there - great water. We frequented Rum Point for snorkelling, used Red Sail Tours with a boat that took us to StingrayCity and Starfish point. Very fun. Also did the Bio-luminescent tour of the bay in kayaks. Went to Turtle Farm and the obligatory Tortuga Rum Cake Factory. Tukka is a nice place for dinner. Rode the bikes to Rum Point several times. Perfectly Pampered Cayman came to the villa so we could all have Swedish or deep tissue massages. We did a lot but always could not wait to get back "Home" to this House! Loved it here and hated to leave!!

Scenic Private Beach

I booked Villa Zara to surprise my boyfriend on his 40th Birthday. As we drove into the driveway we were greeted with a beautiful and luxurious entrance. Yvonne and Phil were waiting our arrival and showed us around the Villa. The Villa had everything you could ever need. We spend most days outside but the real treat for us NYers was the incredible kitchen. We enjoyed making a few breakfasts and dinners while we were here. Villa Zara is the most beautiful Villa along a scenic private beach. I would love to come back when the Island is less windy. Yvonne and Phil were always close by if we needed them. Yvonne even made cupcakes for Scott’s 40th birthday! Thanks Grand Cayman and Villa Zara for an incredible birthday getaway from NYC blizzard conditions.

TRULY MAGNIFICENT

         
Review by MM on 07/17/2018

We had a tough stretch of work and were looking for a complete getaway. Villa Zara on Grand Cayman was just the place. The house was truly magnificent and it’s situated in a part of the island that’s far away from the crowded touristy areas. We had complete seclusion, our own beach, our own large pool and an oversized Jacuzzi. The house is amazing: marble everywhere, a gourmet kitchen, a veranda from each bedroom that overlooks the sea, over the top furniture and bathroom fixtures, and all the toys you might want to use in the pool or the beach! We suggest the two seat kayak, we took it out several times and had the ocean completely to ourselves. We never saw another person. There are top-end restaurants within a short drive as well as some great places to relax for an afternoon drink and enjoy excellent local lunch food. On top of all this, our villa came with two caretakers, a really nice couple who live on the property, one of the very few villas on Cayman with this luxury. Phil maintains the grounds impeccably, while Yvonne takes care of the inside of the house and also provides first hand knowledge of things to do and places to go on the island. They even turn the lights on for us when we were out late so we wouldn’t come home to a dark house. If you want to go to the other side of the island to look around, it takes about 45 minutes. We used wazes and it navigated us perfectly. Given all this we definitely would love to come back and take others. It was tough leaving.

What a lovely home away from home. We had a spectacular holiday. Villa Zara is a very special place to stay. Cayman Island was a new island for us to visit and the villa was perfect. A special thank you to Yvonne and Phil for helping our boating adventure. Yvonne was truly helpful with suggestions for activities, restaurants etc on the island. Kaibo barbecue with Yvonne and Phil our last evening made for a wonderful farewell to a beautiful island vacation. Jane and Chuck, Susan and Ira “Most relaxing place I’ve been”

Villa Cleaning & Sanitation

We're committed to the health and safety of all our guests and have adopted enhanced cleaning safeguards to suppress the spread of COVID-19. 

All villas are cleaned and sanitized prior to each guest's arrival using health agency-approved cleaners and disinfectants. We also ask our owners to provide a starter supply of extra cleaning products.

Additional housekeeping services can be purchased after booking in 3-hour time blocks. Scheduling may be coordinated with your property manager upon arrival on-island.

Cancellation Policy

Relaxed Cancellation Policy on all bookings made after March 14, 2020.

1). Once guests signed rental contract is confirmed with 50% (of rent) deposit, should guest cancel in writing prior to 60 days of arrival, half of the initial deposit (25% of rent) will be refunded to the card on file, less a 3.50% processing/admin fee. Should villa owner be able to replace the reservation in whole or in part, the (prorated) un-refunded balance of the initial deposit will be returned less any re-booking costs incurred. Should the owner not be able to replace the reservation, the balance of the initial deposit is forfeited. 

PANDEMIC/EPIDEMIC EXCEPTION: Should a declared Pandemic or Epidemic prevent reasonable travel options to the destination, the guest may cancel and the entire initial deposit will be refunded, less a processing/admin fee of 3.50%. 

2). Once full payment has been made (or the 60-day mark has passed and the guest has not paid the balance), should guest cancel in writing, GCVC will refund any occupancy taxes, cleaning fees and refundable damage deposits to the card on file. The dates will be opened on the calendar for rebooking. Should the reservation be replaced in whole or part, the guest will receive up to 100% of monies paid less rebooking charges incurred. Should GCVC not be able to replace the reservation, rent and service fee will be forfeited; however, guest will receive a credit for 50% of rent paid to be used for a similar stay at the same property, taken within 13 months of the original date of arrival.

PANDEMIC/EPIDEMIC EXCEPTION: Should a declared Pandemic or Epidemic prevent reasonable travel options after full payment, the guest may cancel up until day of arrival and all payments will be refunded, less a 3.50% processing/admin fee.

HURRICANE WARNING EXCEPTION: Should a hurricane warning (not a hurricane watch) affect Grand Cayman's ability to welcome guests; the guest will have the option of rescheduling the trip with generous owner flexibility or a full 100% refund of all monies paid with no deduction.  

We strongly advise the purchase of CSA trip interruption insurance to indemnify the risk of cancellation, weather delay, airline interruption, medical reason for non-travel, etc.

Please know that very few insurers will cover a declared pandemic.
