Photos and Description of the Grand Cayman vacation townhome rental
2 Bedroom Townhome - Sleeps 4-7 w/ sofa bed, 2.5 bath, loaded w/ FREE amenities

Imagine a retreat where you can enjoy a relaxing vacation in a luxurious setting…Cloud Nine…

Cloud Nine has a full unobstructed view of the Rum Point Beach Club. Our highly coveted location is superior to the locations of the other Island House units that face an overflow parking lot and the road.

Our 1,834 square foot townhome in Rum Point has been designed to treat you to a comfortable and memorable visit. Upon entering our townhome, you will be enveloped by superior accommodations. The townhome was renovated from top to bottom during the summer of 2012. It has been furnished with contemporary furniture and accessories to reflect the chic Caribbean style of Grand Cayman. You will also enjoy 2-car front door parking, free WIFI, a stereo system, premium cable and DVD players on 4 HD televisions sets (including both bedrooms with 30+ DVD's), a Wii game system with 20+ games and the use of 2 double, 2 single kayaks, 4 bicycles (3 adult and 1 child).

“Cloud Nine” is a two story townhome with living space on the first floor and sleeping quarters with en-suite bathrooms on the second floor. The downstairs boasts an open concept living space which includes the living and dining areas, a fully stocked kitchen and game room. There is a conveniently located two piece powder room on the first floor. The laundry room/pantry is conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen. Our well equipped kitchen provides a great space for cooking and entertainment as it faces the open concept living area. The dining area is located in the center of the open space next to the kitchen. The living area offers plenty of seating with a full length sofa and love seat, a 39 inch HDTV with premium HD cable box, DVD player, movies, stereo with ipod/CD player and radio, soft lighting and accent wall with original art work. The game room offers a love seat/sofa bed, board games, movies, 32 inch HDTV with premium HD cable box, DVD player and a Wii system with games.

The spacious lanai is right outside the foldable sliding glass doors adjoining the interior and exterior living spaces. You will find a vibrant outdoor dining and living area within the screened-in lanai surrounded by nature. The lanai faces the pool, dock and bioluminescent bay. The lanai provides an excellent spot to relax in the conversational lounge area, breathe in the fresh air, feel the cool breeze and watch the Caymanian parrots and other tropical birds fly by. Guests who wish to spend more time in the outdoors can enjoy their coffee and meals at the dining table in the lanai. Just a few steps out the back door, you will have access to the pool and our outdoor grill.

There are two bedrooms, each with its own separate en-suite bathroom on the second floor. You will find the bedroom amenities superior to other accommodations. The master bedroom boasts a king sized bed and the second bedroom a queen sized bed and matching twin bed. Each bedroom has room darkening draperies, HDTV with premium HD cable box, DVD player, alarm clock/radio with several soothing sound options such as flowing water, waves, forest sounds, birds chirping and more, modern solid wood furniture, calming color palettes and ocean themed paintings and prints, comfortable new bedding, new lighting system and lamps, remote control adjustable speed fan and separately zoned A/C temperature settings in each bedroom. The bathrooms have new shower and faucet fixtures, high efficiency toilets, and are finely decorated and well appointed. Each bedroom has its own exterior balcony within the screened-in lanai. The balconies face the pool, dock and bay from the perched second floor. Each balcony offers a private sitting area for you to relax.

You will have access to two double and two single kayaks to tour the calm bay at your own pace. You will enjoy a fabulous nocturnal spectacle only seen in 11 other bioluminescent bays around the world. When the lights go down, the micro-organisms in the bioluminescent bay put on a fabulous show as visitors tour the bay. As you paddle through the water, the micro-organisms illuminate leaving a shiny silvery streak of water. Your paddle will take the form of a lightsaber as you slice through the night waters. The dock is open for fishing any time of day or night in the calm bay waters.

A few steps out your front door will find you at the renowned Rum Point Beach, the most picturesque beach in Grand Cayman. The shallow and clear waters and pink/white sand of Rum Point Beach make it ideal for swimming and offers some of the finest snorkeling in the Caribbean. Rum Point is located in a protected marine park, so grab your snorkeling gear and take in the vibrant views and abundant sea life along the reef just offshore. Adults and children alike will enjoy relaxing and playing in the clear, turquoise, shallow waters. Also at Rum Point, you will find the Red Sail Sports activity center, where you can book Sting Ray City trips as well as other excursions. A host of beach toys are available for rent, including jet skis, catamaran sailboat, banana boat, snorkeling gear and more. The Wreck Bar and Rum Point Restaurant provide some of the best food and drinks on the island including the famous Mudslide, Cuban sandwich, jerk pork plate, local dishes and fine dining in the evenings. Rum Point Beach offers changing rooms, showers, hammocks, a volleyball net, picnic tables and plenty of shade under a canopy of magnificent Casuarina trees and coconut palms.

All these attributes make Cloud Nine the perfect place for your next vacation!

About The Owner

My husband and I have been married for 17 years. We have 2 boys, ages 10 and 14. We live in Houston, Texas. We enjoy getting away to our townhome at Rum Point as frequently as we can. Our kids enjoy telling their friends that in Grand Cayman their back yard is a bioluminescent bay and their front yard is a beach! We enjoy having friends and family visit so that we can show off our home away from home. We would love to share our island home with you while we are back in Houston, putting in time in the 'real world.'

The Owner purchased this townhome in 2012
Why The Owner chose Grand Cayman

My husband and I had talked about buying a property in the Caribbean since our honeymoon. Everytime we would go on vacation to an island, that conversation would come back up. But, we never pulled the trigger. Back in July of 2007, my in-laws watched the kids for a week while my husband and I went on our first vacation by ourselves since the kids were born. We went to Grand Cayman and stayed on 7 Mile Beach. The beaches were stunning and the island was absolutely paradise. Beatiful views...warm water...laid-back island atmosphere.

Around the middle of the week, we decided to rent a car and drive over to Rum Point, which we had read about online. Now, I grew up in the Caribbean and we have traveled pretty extensively to various island destinations. I have seen my share of stunningly beautiful beaches. But, let me tell you...when we got out of the car and walked around the corner of the gift shop and saw the beach at Rum Point, we were absolutely awestruck by the beauty. We had a drink at the Wreck Bar and decided to walk out to the water. The water was perfectly calm and clear as a looking glass. We were able to walk out a couple hundred feet from the shore and the water was only waist high! We began to talk about how this would be such a perfect place to come with the kids. Shallow, calm water. Nice quiet, family atmosphere. To say the least, we fell in love with Rum Point and purchased a one bedroom condominium back in 2007.

Five years later, with a teenager in the family we have outgrown the one bedroom, but not the beauty of Rum Point. In summer of 2012 we found the perfect 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath townhome we call 'Cloud Nine.'

What makes this townhome unique

Cloud Nine offers the best of both worlds...the picturesque Rum Point Beach out your front door and a rare bioluminescent bay out your back door that you can explore on our kayaks. All the while you will find yourself in a warm, luxurious setting from which to enjoy a tropical paradise. Cloud Nine has a full unobstructed view of the Rum Point Beach Club. Our highly coveted location is superior to the locations of the other Island House units that face an overflow parking lot and the road. The Rum Point beach and waters are part of a government protected marine park with lots of colorful coral and abundant sea life. Right out your front door is the Rum Point Club and Red Sail Sports dive shop and activity center. While far from a wild and crazy place, the Red Sail facilities offer plenty of activity. They have a great bar and grill (excellent drinks and friendly service), a fabulous formal restaurant and a beach rental and excursion center. Right there you can rent jet skis, sail boats, banana boat, snorkling gear and more, plus book your Sting Ray City and scuba diving excursions. Most of the excursions leave right from the dock on the property. It is also a great place for the kids to find some playmates to explore the beach with! There are lots of other great restaurants nearby if you want to branch out a little. You are also about a 15 minute drive from the stunningly beautiful the Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park and the Mastic Trail nature hike.

A Perfect Vacation

5 of 5
Submitted: April 24, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
Our stay at Cloud Nine was fabulous. It was our first time to Grand Cayman and we wanted to avoid the crowds. The Rum Point area was the perfect place to do that. Cloud Nine is exactly as shown in the pictures. It was so nice to have kayaks and bicycles to use. We kayaked out in the bioluminescent bay three different nights. What a magical experience! We also enjoyed seeing crabs, fish and jellyfish in the bay. The ocean beach is literally right across the small street. There's a nice store there, plus a casual restaurant and a nice restaurant. The guys in our group did a lot of diving and thought it was phenomenal, especially at the east end of the island. My daughter and I rode horses on the beach and even swam in the ocean with horses through Coral Stone Stables. They were willing to meet us on the beach in Boddentown so we didn't have to drive clear to the West End. It was just the two of us and a guide. The beach at Boddentown was not very clean, but they had warned about that and it did not bother us. It was a great time. Another favorite activity was swimming with the stingrays. We enjoyed riding bikes down to Starfish Point and finding the amazing starfish. Hurley's is a great grocery store. Our favorite restaurants were Over the Edge and Kurt's Korner. Both were very reasonable with great food. The owner provided quick answers to any questions we had and was very accessible. We would definitely try to stay at Cloud Nine again!
Owner's Response: Hi Jodi,

It sounds like you had a magical vacation! How great that you and your family were able to spend time together and do so much! How special that you went horse back riding with your daughter on the beach! I also love the fact that you all swam with the stingrays, kayaked at night in the bay, went for bike rides to Starfish Point and were so close to nature! You must have had some great conversations around the dinner table! I wish you can have many more special vacations and I am so grateful for your kind words and outstanding review! Your review will be read by many and they will be inspired by your experiences! Best regards, Adela P.S. Stay in touch!

Wonderful Condo, Location & Owner!

Wonderful Condo, Location & Owner!

Submitted: March 27, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
THE CONDO: Exactly as described. The 2 BRs upstairs (1 King in 1st BR; 1 Queen and 1 Twin in 2nd BR), each with full bath were very nice, with plenty of closet space, A/C in each room and both with balconies that overlooked the 2-story screened in patio. Off the LR is a small den with a pullout sofabed. The 2nd BR accommodated our two daughters and the den worked well for our teenage son. We ate most of our meals on the very large patio that had a large table and 6 chairs. There was also additional patio furniture that made it a very comfortable sitting/reading space. I will also mention that there is a private parking spot right outside the front door that is very convenient. Overall, the condo worked very well for us.

THE LOCATION: Perfect! In contrast to 7 Mile Beach, Rum Point is such a quiet & beautiful spot, and this condo is situated perfectly. Step outside the front door, walk across the road (maybe 1 - 2 cars per day) and there you are at Rum Point Beach Club. Or walk out the back, take 10 steps through the sand & you're at a nice swimming pool, & also at shore of the bioluminescent bay. Because of how close the condo is to both the ocean and the bay, we took the kayaks across the street to the ocean, paddled around Rum Point into the bay, and then dragged the kayaks the few feet back to our condo... fun! Do realize, however, that you are at least 10 mins from a small convenience store w/limited items, much farther from a full-service grocery store, and the other side of the island (George Town, 7 Mile Beach) are a good 35-40 minutes away. But so what?!?...At the Beach Club, there's a bar/grill open til 6pm and a restaurant open for dinner after that. The gift shop is nice and has a few convenience items, and Red Sail Sports rents paddleboards, jet skis, etc., plus they'll lend you a volleyball for the court nearby.

THE OWNER: Honest, responsive, and helpful! We had an issue with the cable TV box and within 30 minutes of my e-mail, she had responded back with directions to fix the problem. And then, when our return flight home was delayed by a day, she quickly and easily accommodated our additional night's stay. Also, the information she provided about shopping/directions/sights was detailed and helpful. It was an absolute pleasure working with her!

Purely magical

This was our first visit to the Cayman Islands and it was wonderful. Our stay at Cloud 9 was the best. Adela was very welcoming and full of information. The welcome packet had directions to places of interest, restaurants, and news only a local would know. The condo was very comfortable and fully stocked with everything we needed. We used the kayaks out on the bay several times and it was so much fun. We snorkeled at Rum Point and also several other areas.The underwater sites are amazing. We saw the starfish at starfish beach, we went on the Stingray City tour that leaves right from Rum Point. It was a once in a lifetime experience.. We ate "Upstairs" at Kaibo and at the Rum Point Club and both were fabulous. The outside beach restaurant at Rum Point is also very good for lunch. We would highly recommend this condo to anyone wanting a relaxing and peaceful vacation...no hustle or bustle. We hope to come back again.
Owner's Response: I love the fact that you celebrated your 25th Anniversary at Cloud Nine. I enjoyed meeting both of you and you must have been having a great time. Anytime I passed by Cloud Nine, your car was gone! You must have visited a lot of the places of interest around the island. I am also glad you took the kayak out to go around the bay. Rum Point Beach Club is a great place to hang out, people watch, sun bathe, relax on a hammock and have a great Caribbean rum drink and lunch. We love taking the Sting Ray City trip with Warren from Red Sail in Rum Point. I bet that the special time you enjoyed together in the tranquility of Rum Point will be a fond memory that will last for many years to come! I always feel like I am in the presence of true kindness and beauty when I am on Grand Cayman! I truly hope you stay in touch with us! Adela

In Heaven At Cloud Nine

Cloud Nine was better than expected! This was the 1st time we rented a house instead of going all inclusive. Prior to our trip Adela sent us information on the island and the house so we were prepared. There were 4 adults and 3 kids and there was plenty of room in house where we didn't feel like we were on top of each other. When we arrived we were in awe! The house was clean, bright, and inviting. Besides food, beverages, and a few paper products the house had everything we needed and more. When we had some down time at the house the kids kept busy on the kayaks, playing in the sand, watching movies, and playing on the Wii, all which were supplied. I would definitely recommend the Cloud Nine Property. Some of our favorites: Over The Edge which had excellent food at reasonable prices, Star Fish Point is a great spot to watch the sun set, and of course the Mudslide's from Rum Point. Thank you Adela and family for sharing your home away from home with us! We all enjoyed ourselves thoroughly.
Owner's Response: Hi Kelly,

I am so pleased to hear how much the adults and children enjoyed their stay at Cloud Nine. Reading your review brings back memories of our stays at Cloud Nine. We enjoy the open space and the surroundings such as Rum Point Beach Club, the cove, palm trees and nature. You found some of the best kept secrets in the Cayman Kai area: Rum Point's Mudslide (absolutely there is no match on the island and everyone falls in love with them), Over The Edge (for the best Caymanian breakfasts, lunches and dinners) and Star Fish Point (one of the 10 Must See Places on the island and specially at sunset, bring your camera, the lighting is amazing).

We hope to see you back for more adventures!

Adela

The best vacation home we have stayed in!

We stayed at "Cloud 9" at Rum Point for three days in February of 2013. We have traveled to over 60 countries and have stayed in some of the best places in the world. We also like to "rough it" by sleeping in jungles and staying in hostels. For this vacation, we wanted to relax on one of the nicest beaches we have been to. Cloud 9 allowed us to do that.

We were pleasantly surprised at how perfect the place was for us. We are a couple in our early 40s with a two year old. The two bedrooms upstairs, complete with full baths off of each, were perfect for us. Both bedrooms had balconies overlooking the screened-in patio below and had a view of the bioluminicient bay which was about 20 meters away from us.

The main floor had a great kitchen where we cooked breakfast and supper each day. It also had a laundry room, another bathroom and two living areas, one geared for kids.

What we liked the most though, was the huge patio doors that opened up into an screened in porch. When we were inside, we felt like we were outside, which was perfect for us, and our daughter who could roam around the outside patio without us having to worry about her. We spent more time on the patio than inside as it was nicely furnished and had table to eat at.

The owners were great to work with from the beginning. Adela was easy to get a hold of and always got back to us quickly with questions. The house is well-stocked, and very clean. The photos do not do this home justice as it is much nicer in person. The kayaks were a great touch, there are bikes there that we never had a chance to use. You are 30 steps away from Rum Point and the beach there. And the pool was a great alternative.

We would definitely stay there again as it is the perfect location to get away from the pace in Georgetown.

Owner's Response: Hi Ryan, you have an amazing gift for writing! I think your review paints the picture of our place and surroundings better than any actual picture could! We have two boys and we hate to hear "we are bored." So we have combated this syndrome with bikes, kayaks, Wii system, movies, TVs in every room and board games. As it turns out, "Cloud Nine" is the place everyone wants to visit when we are on the island. Our adult friends come over to relax in the large lanai and for the bar-b-que. Our younger friends love to explore the cove in our kayaks and play chicken war or go to the park across from the cove and pretend they are stranded! Then there is Rum Point Beach Club with its great amenities 30 steps from our front door. The teenagers go straight to the volleyball court. The little ones like the smaller beach area. There is also a lot of jumping off the pier and snorkeling going on. I prefer the hammock with a good book and viewing the sunset at the end of the day!
