341 Old Robin Road29 user reviews. Grand Cayman, Fabulous pool and sunset views of the ocean.out of 5 Reviewed by Sarah on 06/17/2016 Loved the infinity pool just a few yards from the ocean - it's small, but very relaxing. Never grew tired of the view from the central part of the house - every time I walked into the living room area or the master bedroom, it took my breath away. Gorgeous sunsets that differed every night. Snorkeling right behind the house was nice, but tide-dependent - if it's low tide, it's easy to scrape against the coral. We enjoyed the snorkeling at the adjacent Queen's Monument area, at Barefoot Beach (few miles to the east) and along the north side of Rum Point more than right behind the house. Didn't end up using the kayaks at the house for the same reason - we're novice kayakers and I didn't trust my ability to stay out of the rocky areas near shore without damaging the kayaks. Construction didn't really bother us for 9 of the 10 days we were there; they didn't work on Sundays, and they were noisy only 1 day. Lots of pool toys (floats, noodles) and beach gear (pails, umbrellas, citronella torches) available in the outdoor closet. House is fairly well stocked with kitchen equipment and elsewhere, but it definitely has the feel of a house that has always been rented, never lived in. Beds were VERY comfortable - we all slept very well. Only the master bedroom has direct ocean views - the other bedrooms have porches and more distant views of the sea. Bathrooms were large; showers nice. Wished the master bath had 2 sinks, and all the bathrooms could use more towel hooks. We like this side of the island, having stayed in the East End on a prior trip, so we were happy to enjoy our favorite spots like Tukka and Eagle Ray's again. I've rented about a dozen houses in various places over the years, usually through VRBO, and I'd have to say that Grand Cayman Villas and Condos is the best rental agent I've ever dealt with - rapid and informative communication and extra perks like the Silver Thatch discount card.
4BR-Christmas Palms Very Relaxing Stay!out of 5 Reviewed by Sarah on 06/17/2016 Loved the infinity pool looking into the ocean. Also loved the sunset views! Fond some nice pool/beach items in the outdoor closet that were a real bonus. We enjoyed snorkeling off the beach and especially at Barefoot Beach and the public beach at Rum Point going in to Cayman Kai. We saw turtles snorkeling at Spott's Beach near Savannah.
We never grew tired of the view from the central part of the home - the living area and the master bedroom.
Tukka is a "must do" experience for dinner.
4BR-Christmas Palms Unforgettable Experience!out of 5 Reviewed by Terry on 06/06/2016 We will never forget Christmas Palms! We renewed our wedding vows on the beach after 24 years of marriage. What a beautiful, romantic, serene spot for our perfect day! We loved the pool, the beach and the hammock.
Beautiful home and a great week!
4BR-Christmas Palms Amazing Homeout of 5 Reviewed by Mary on 04/01/2016 Thank you so much for allowing us to rent your wonderful property. The weather was great, the home was great, the trip was fantastic! The description of the home really understates the comfort, size and luxury of this home. We have stayed on several islands in the Caribbean and none was nicer than Cayman or this home.
The management company was top notch professional and helpful throughout the process. They helped us arrange a trip to stingray city with Red Sail (A MUST!), rent kayaks (A MUST!), dinner recommendations and things to do. We even had Rosie cook at our home one night.
We will always remember our trip to Christmas Palms and hope we can come back another time.
4BR-Christmas Palms Planning a return trip!out of 5 Reviewed by Ann on 03/12/2016 Our stay at Christmas Palms was nothing short of brilliant. Whilst the beach did not provide the fun and sun (mother nature!) one might anticipate, the pool was refreshing. The view was simply spectacular.
The Lighthouse, Tukka and Over the Edge should definitely be restaurant choices.
Will we be back? Definitely yes!
4BR-Christmas Palms Gorgeous week at Christmas Palmsout of 5 Reviewed by Sheila on 03/05/2016 We enjoyed the beautiful views! Rum Point was our favorite though. The weather was gorgeous the entire week and we found the locals to be very friendly. This was the first visit for a few of us in the group. A return trip is more than a "maybe" for us! 4BR-Christmas Palms Exactly what we wanted and neededout of 5 Reviewed by lucy on 02/14/2016 Great Location! Wouldn't change a thing! Property was well managed and well represented. 4BR-Christmas Palms Beautiful Home and Private Locationout of 5 Reviewed by Jeff on 01/16/2016 We spent a week at Christmas Palms with out family. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and on the northside of the island in particular.
The home is well appointed to suit the needs of our family of 7. The beach was nice and we snorkeled off the shore every day. We also went to the resort area of Morritts one day and Rum Point on two other occasions. Would recommend Rum Point to anyone with children ages 2 on up!
We are already planning our next trip th Cayman and hope we can stay here again as well!
4BR-Christmas Palms Family Christmas Vacationout of 5 Reviewed by Wanda on 12/19/2015 Our family Christmas vacation here was fantastic. It was peaceful, private and quiet. The view is great. The house met all of our needs and the views from the bedrooms are gorgeous.
4BR-Christmas Palms Great location and home!out of 5 Reviewed by Shani on 06/27/2015 Lovely house! Lovely location!
This is our third trip to Grand Cayman. We've rented other houses in this area and Christmas Palms is by far our favorite. Definitely plan on coming back. Really hated to leave this paradise!
4BR-Christmas Palms Wowout of 5 Reviewed by Shanette on 07/29/2014 This place was just as the pictures show. My husband went to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary with our sons (one with wife and our 11 years old granddaughter, the other's girlfriend) and we couldn't have picked a better place. My husband and sons even surprised me with a Vowal Renewal Ceremony and the backyard scenary was beautiful.

4BR-Christmas Palms Amazingout of 5 Reviewed by danddallen on 06/22/2014 Just got back from the best vacation we have had in a while. I can't say enough about this house. It was perfect for our family. There were 5 adults and a 7 year old and everyone was happy with their room and the pool was a big hit. The ocean was choppy and very rocky which made it very difficult to get in the water. We preferred going to star fish beach and out with White Sand water sports for Snorkeling and to Sting Ray City. They were great and take you out at 7 am before the cruise ships crowds show up.
We used cayman shoppers and our groceries were all there and put away. Eddie was the best. Just call him or email him with a list and he takes care of everything. The house was stocked with paper products and spices so I would wait to see what you need after you get there. There is a small Fosters store not more than a five minute car ride away. It has pretty much what you need. We did drive to a larger one in Savannah for meats and vegetables.
Having a washer and dryer was perfect.. Came home to no wash. Note that the bathroom down stair is really a half bath. No shower or tub. Our grandson used one of the ones up stairs to shower. There is a shower outside to rinse off after being in the ocean.
The air condition worked fine for us. You just have to keep the doors closed or it will kick into energy mode. There is an upstairs thermostat that can be turned down at night if you get hot.
I would highly recommend this house. We have vacationed at quite a few villas and I can say that this was our favorite. working with cayman villas made it easy. No hidden fees to deal with and they will answer any questions you may have.
I will go back

4BR-Christmas Palms Beautiful Views, Lovely Homeout of 5 Reviewed by Jill B on 03/15/2014 Located on the north side of the Island, it was very quiet and peaceful. Right on the beach, with great views and good snorkeling just steps from the patio door. The home is lovely with 3 master suites upstairs and a 4th bedroom downstairs. Kitchen is well stocked with the necessities (dishes, pots, utensils and sharp knives!). Plenty of bath and beach towels provided.

4BR-Christmas Palms Awesome Vacationout of 5 Reviewed by bardarwalls on 07/13/2013 We stayed at the Christmas Palms in July 2013. The house was as advertised. Perfect location if you want to stay away from seven mile beach but close enough to do day trips to the turtle farm, shopping, etc. Very close to Rum Point which my husband and I and 5 teenagers enjoyed. Snorkeling right out back was perfect as well. Bring water shoes as there is sharp coral when getting into the water. Amazing sunsets. The only issue was that it took a long time for the upstairs to cool down at night, other than that the house was great and we all enjoyed the pool. Would definitely come back again!

4BR-Christmas Palms \"Fantastic\"out of 5 Reviewed by Verified Reviewer on 06/22/2013 This villa is in a beautiful spot on the island, very quiet on the north shore.

The service was great and we no problems with anything in the house! Perfect vacation,

4BR-Christmas Palms Great Crib in the Cayman Islandsout of 5 Reviewed by Kathy L on 04/24/2013 We loved our stay at Christmas Palms. I am the owner of Tahoe Destination Vacation Rentals in South Lake Tahoe, California.I also own and rent a home In Costa Rica. So its very important for me to have a comfortable and clean home. This was all that plus some.
We were given excellent service with the property manager of this home and the Owner of this home. The rental process was easy and the communication of where things are and what to do was great! We had a small issue with the air, but was fixed quickly.
I love the idea of the auto shut down of the air-conditioning for the home. I know what its like to get a $1000 bill for air in a tropical island that charges 4 x the amount from what we pay in the states from Renters who have no idea the cost,or of what it takes to own a home in the tropics.
We loved the location because we are divers and dove with Ocean Frontiers which is less then 15 minutes away. Rum Point is close and really some of the best food/fish we have had traveling the world. Easy to get to 7 mile if you need the rat race of people, we did both, relaxed at the home, and then visited the other side of the island.
Thank you Jenny for a great home and allowing us to enjoy our vacation with our Friends.
We did bring our own meat into the country as we do in Costa Rica, it will save you a lot of money. Food is not cheap on the island. Look up the rules online.
Just a side note, Ocean waters brings sugar ants, They are everywhere in the world, they do spray for them but sometimes you just can't get rid of all of them.
Enjoy the views and the sunsets!
4BR-Christmas Palms \"An amazing vacation escape\"out of 5 Reviewed by Verified Reviewer on 03/21/2013 The house is as billed in the photos, plenty of room for us (3 adults and 3 kids)
The pool (small) was a must with kids as the beach is very full of coral - which is fine as long as you brought water shoes, we were prepared! The first few days were windy, but we had many adventures around the island but couldn't really snorkel or kayak in front of our house because the waves. Last few days it let up and was awesome.
(lots of places to go, you must rent a car)
We made a lot of meals at the house and generally went out for lunch, occasional dinner with the kids, the kitchen was nice and well equipped.
We felt very safe, which was nice.
We loved the island, the people who rented us the house were fine, never saw them but didn't need to, everything worked well.
You can fish right out front, my husband and son had a great time catching bonefish, and we saw thousands of other species of fish. We loved the house and would rent again. For us it was great, for someone who wants to be in the midst of it all, not the place for you. It didn't feel remote, just not overcrowded. The booking process was excellent, the people were really heads up.

4BR-Christmas Palms Very relaxing and quietout of 5 Reviewed by Tom C on 10/20/2012 The house was excellent. The location is what I would call central. We're not big touristy people so Christmas Palms was perfect. We've been to the Island before so we just enjoyed or accommodations. Shopped in town for all our needs and only left the house because we had to.

4BR-Christmas Palms Lovely Home on a beautiful island!out of 5 Reviewed by Maria on 09/05/2012 This is a lovely house. There is a small pool out back with fun pool toys. The kitchen is well-equipped and there's a large tv in the living area. You'll definitely need beach shoes for anyone going into the ocean as there are many sea urchins in the ocean behind the house. All the rooms have great views which is very unusual. The home is in a well-secure location and we felt safe taking walks, biking, and riding around. There are many good restaurants on the North Side and you are very close to the stingray sandbar which is a must visit for all in your party. The home is about a 30-40 mile drive to 7 Mile Beach and in a laid back area. You will really love this house!

4BR-Christmas Palms Amazing, Beautiful and Private!out of 5 Reviewed by Janine on 06/30/2012 If you don't want to stay in a busy condo on a noisy road on seven mile beach (not to mention share the pool with hundreds of other people... eww), stay on the northside! Christmas palms is so beautiful and quiet. Three couples can share this house easily. the property is easy to find and close enough to rum point and east end on the other side (both about 20 min drives) and seven mile beach is not as far as it looks... we never minded the drive. you can't see your neighbors (unless you start walking down the beach far enough, obviously) the beach is full of coral but if you get out on the sea kayak you can get to mediocre snorkeling. take a trip out snorkeling on the east end with a boat, it's worth it!! the pool is great- doesn't have any harsh chemicals in it. warning- no modern grill! the grill is actually a small fire-pit with grate. we made it work just make sure you buy some charcoal. the pictures of this house are very accurate- we'd stay here again!

4BR-Christmas Palms Christmas Palms - a Cayman Paradise!!out of 5 Reviewed by Dave on 06/16/2012 This rental property is absolutely fabulous. It's beautifully decorated, very spacious and has all the needed amenities. It's located directly on the beach - only steps away from a memorable snorkeling experience. It's an approximate 30 minute drive from the airport to its location on the North side. There are plenty of restaurants within a 5-10 mile radius - all of which provided us with a wonderful dining experience. If you're looking for a little seclusion and/or to getaway from the hustle and bustle of Georgetown this is the perfect location!!!

4BR-Christmas Palms Peaceful Paradiseout of 5 Reviewed by Dean on 05/12/2012 Christmas Palms and the owner were perfect. Everythign was in order when we arrived. Very clean and equipted. The location was in a perfect part of the island where we got the best weather. Gentle breezes every afternoon as it got hotter in other parts of the island, we stayed very comfortable. Close enough to the action but remote enough to feel private. It was one of our best vacations ever.

4BR-Christmas Palms Luxury home on secluded Cayman Island coastout of 5 Reviewed by Verified Reviewer on 03/01/2012 My wife, two teenage daughters and myself spent a week at Christmas Palms during the spring break of 2012. The house was designed perfectly for this secluded spot on the beach on the North side of the island so that there are fabulous views of the Carribean from every point in the house. The back veranda around the pool and beach is about as private as one could hope to find anywhere. The house can comfortably accommodate 10 people and was perhaps more than the four of us needed but we really enjoyed the extra space and the quiet times spent around the house reading, cooking and lounging about. The location is well off the beaten path and the traffic on the North Island road is next to nothing at all hours of the day; however, you are located only minutes away from the Lighthouse and Rum Point, two of the islands best restaurants. There are vacant wooded lots on both sides of the house that provide a secure sense of comforting isolation. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking your own meals and the screened-in area by the pool is great for serving meals. We found snorkling on the beach to be a challenge as the reef at this particular location is a bit of a swim and the surf is high near the shore. This is really a fantastic place and we hope to return one day.

4BR-Christmas Palms Great family vacationout of 5 Reviewed by Verified Reviewer on 01/07/2012 We had a wonderful stay at Christmas Palms. Even the teenagers loved it! We found all the information sent to us very helpful and it really allowed us to plan some great activities and made our vacation so much better. Having all the links provided us with an opportunity to maximize our trip by knowing a lot of information before we even landed. For example, we arrived on a Sunday and all the grocery stores were closed but knowing this in advance means we ordered groceries on line and they were stocked in the fridge on our arrival. Details like that make for a much more relaxing vacation (especially for the Mums!) The home was spotless on arrival and the location was amazing. It was a quiet enough street that the kids could go exploring by themselves, but just a few minutes to Rum Point and some great snorkeling and water activities. We enjoyed the quiet location and beach only a few steps away. This was our first trip to Caymans and we were so impressed by everything - the amazing people, beautiful landscape and the wonderful and always accessible beach. We have already booked for next year.

4BR-Christmas Palms Beautiful homeout of 5 Reviewed by Anne on 11/19/2011 The house was beautiful. Six adults and one child had plenty of room in the house. Really enjoyed the fact that there were three king suites, so no fighting over who got the "good" room! Only complaint would be some minor maintenance items. There were a large number of burned out light bulbs - we ended up buying some at the store and replacing them ourselves. The back door latch was also broken for the entire week we were there. Those minor items didn't detract from the great views and the roomy house. Especially enjoyed that the house was on the north side. Very secluded, and absolutely beautiful sunrises & sunsets!
4BR-Christmas Palms Lived up to expectationsout of 5 Reviewed by Verified Reviewer on 11/05/2011 Fantastic setting and the villa looked just like the photos. Very quiet even though close to road. Needed water shoes to get to and from the sea. Wonderfully relaxing stay

4BR-Christmas Palms Blissout of 5 Reviewed by LMW on 08/21/2010 Spent 3 months on an extended vacation at Christmas Palms in Grand Cayman. Amazing location, the best view, comfiest beds and a very well appointed house made this a great stay. Waking up to the sound of the Caribbean sea is just a joy. Having the Over the Edge restaurant so close serving breakfast, lunch and dinner was so convenient too. The owner of the villa is a wonderful and literally couldn't have been more helpful during our stay. The snorkelling off the back of the property was great and we managed to get out to the drop off a few times to see manta ray, parrot fish - all sorts. Kitchen well appointed, out door dining room was a real plus as well - highly, highly recommend.

Beach Description
With a central location on the island…the homes in Old Man Bay offer perhaps the best shore diving and snorkeling on the entire island. The beaches are mostly sand, but also can be have some pebbly beaches as well as natural rock formations . Either way, with the varied marine life we have in the water, you will want to wear foot protection (pool shoes or fins). The beaches here offer great seashell collecting and turtle sightings in summer! Old Man Bay is only 5 minutes from (2) large resorts in the east end (www.morritts.com and www.thereef.com ) that offer manicured beaches as well as restaurants, a modern grocery store, liquor store, gift shops, SUBWAY sandwich shop (and even a Coffee/pastry shop!). Cayman Crystal Caves is also located in Old Man Bay.
Heading west, "Kurt's Korner" is a local restaurant within walking distance; and then "Over the Edge" restaurant is about one mile away. They serve breakfast, lunch AND dinner and offer a varied menu that offers a value choice. These two resorts also offer scuba, snorkel trips, jet skis, windsurfers, kiteboarding, ocean front pools and bar service. You are also only 5-10 minutes to the best SCUBA diving operations/dive sites on the entire island. www.oceanfrontiers.com and www.tortugadivers.com are two of the best. About 15 minutes to the west of Old Man Bay is the famous Rum Point Club…with watersports, restaurant, bar, gift shop, grill and a barefoot beach with table service. Here is where the catamaran departs for stingray sandbar/snorkeling tours.
