We stayed at Seafan Meadows in September 2009 and were thrilled with our accommodations! The owners were wonderful to deal with, and we were thrilled to meet Derwin, even though he wasn't on the island for the whole week. The snorkelling and diving right in front of the house was incredible! You definitely need reef shoes though, as there isn't much sand. The house was well laid out for our group of seven. We had one couple, one woman with an infant, and myself, my husband and two kids. The pool was a favorite of the kids, and we spent hours in it every day! We had fun touring around the island too - we did a couple of hikes, went to Brac Reef Divers for a day of diving, and the new Hotel Alexandria for their amazing BBQ on Tuesday night. There wasn't anything we needed that we didn't have in the house, and would highly recommend it to anyone! We only left four days ago, and we miss it already! Total relaxation!!!

The description of the house was exactly as it was when we arrived, however the house looks far better in real life than it did in the photos!! The house was clean, and well looked after. We had a chance to meet Karl and thank him in person for the good service and for sharing his beautiful home with us.

We spent 8 days at Seafan Meadows during the Easter break. It was our first time going to the Brac. This was our fourth rental from VRBO.
Derwin picked us up from the airport (as well as returning us there), and made us feel welcome. He made sure we knew he was available should ANYTHING pop up. We enjoyed using the included car, as it made getting to the market, restaurants, and island exploring all the easier.
The Brac continues to feel some of the pain from Hurricane Paloma, but that didn't dampen our spirits, as we were able to enjoy the pool, the sea, the house, and the island's caves. For a relaxing, recharging the batteries vacation, this is the place to be.
The house is in great shape, with a well-appointed kitchen, stocked with all accessories and utensils one could possibly need. The owner has a very deep DVD collection consisting of old and quite new movies; we watched a flick each night. The 10,000 song music collection has everything from Reggae to Metal to Jazz to Classical.
In summary, we had a great time, and owe it to having our base be Seafan Meadows. I recommend this home, especially if you desire a private, secluded experience in a wonderful home on the sea.

WOW! We just returned from Sea Fan Meadows.
Rented from March 19-28th, 2009. We are so
grateful for Karl and Cha Che to open up their
beautiful home. Derwin is the best! Had a great
connection with him and he was so helpful. It was
windy while we were there, so we didn't get a
chance to go fishing or take advantage of the boat,
but hope to next year. Enjoyed the pool everyday as
well as everything else.The house is so spacious.
The 10,000 cd's on the pc were a big hit! Kitchen
was everything the listing stated and even more. So
much more we are already booked for next year
(2010). The car was another added bonus. Thanks
again Karl & Cha Che, without your generosity we
would not have experienced the Brac! Looking
forward to next year for another exciting
experience on the Brac.

One cannot ask for a more relaxing, comfortable, and, enjoyable place to vacation than Seafan Meadows on Cayman Brac. This house epitomizes the proper balance between form and function. The views are the stuff of postcards. The snorkeling in front of the house, and elsewhere on the beautiful island, is fantastic. The beds, the kitchen, the sound system, the Wii(!?!)--all nicer comforts than anyone will expect, but everyone will enjoy to the fullest.

Derwin makes this vacation even more special. Everyone should be so lucky to have a guide like him at least once in their lives. I will remember our fishing outing and delicious meals to follow for the rest of mine. Truly wonderful. Many thanks.

I would hit replay do it all over again tomorrow if I could!

My entire family had wonderful time at your gorgeous house. We enjoyed kayaking, snorkeling and went scuba diving with your house keeper Derwin. He is definitely a positive asset to your rental and a very kind person. Derwin helped us with anything we needed or didn’t know about the island. We miss your beautiful sunsets by the pool and palm trees. Hopefully we will come again in the near future. We also enjoyed touring the entire island and the many caves. It was a wonderful experience thanks to the guide at the islands national park.

We recently returned from a most memorable vacation at Sea Fan Meadows, and in a word, "wow!" The house surpasses the images as seen online and when the weather is right, there is nothing more right! Luxurious is a perfect descriptor for the property. With the combo of house, car, and now, access to a captained boat - there is no better deal in the entire island!

We had such a wonderful time staying at your beautiful house, but also exploring the amazing and resilient island that is Cayman Brac.

It's been said before, but Derwin was a wonderful and fully unexpected addition to the whole experience. Not only incredibly helpful, but incredibly knowledgeable and down to earth: the right kind of person!

Thanks for the fishing Derwin - I can still taste that tuna... and now nothing else tastes quite the same.

Seafan was a treat, as was Cayman Brac. Great scuba every day and a perfect place to come home to. The pool was very nice and the views were spectacular.
Agree with previous comment that Derwin made the stay more enjoyable, there to help with any issue or question about the island, even picked up our lost luggage while we were out diving.

Seafan Meadowes was absolutley terrific.
The house was spacious and immaculate.
Both the owner(Karl) and the caretaker(Derwin) went out of their way
to make us as comfortable as possible.
I recommended this vacation house to
anybody who would like a peaceful, rejuvinating getaway.
Owner's Response: Tom & Amy: Thank you... As our 1st VRBO guests (March 21-31,'08), your comments are especially appreciated! Karl
