About this property

Casa Tortuga - privacy and relaxation offered by Cayman Villas

Casa Tortuga beckons those seeking tranquility, seclusion, and serenity amidst 180 feet of private beachfront! Nestled in the idyllic Frank Sound on the southern shore of Grand Cayman, this villa boasts an unrivaled position on a stunning south-facing beach, offering captivating vistas of the Caribbean Sea that reaffirm the existence of paradise.

This single-level home offers guests three generously sized bedrooms, each accompanied by an ensuite bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen, and a spacious living/dining area—all conveniently situated on the ground level. Abundant natural light floods the interiors through sliding doors and large windows, while the gentle sea breezes invite you to open up and revel in the refreshing coastal air. Outside, the inviting gazebo and tropical breezes create an irresistible ambiance for al fresco dining, morning coffee, leisurely lunches, or sunset cocktails, ensuring relaxation throughout the day.

True to its name, Casa Tortuga pays homage to the owner's fondness for turtles, reflected in the unique décor and furnishings that adorn the home. Catering to various guest configurations, whether a small family, a group of friends, or couples seeking privacy and relaxation, Casa Tortuga offers a welcoming retreat for all.

Set upon a fenced-in 2-acre plot, the home boasts a winding driveway flanked by lush coconut trees leading to the entrance. Surrounded by verdant tropical gardens and mere steps from the tranquil Caribbean Sea, guests can indulge in some of the island's finest snorkeling, with the chance of encountering a graceful turtle or two. Following a day of aquatic adventures, unwind by the poolside, soaking in the warmth of the tropical breezes. A gas BBQ stands ready for the designated chef to grill up freshly caught fish, readily available from local fishermen. Please note that a groundskeeper resides in a small cottage on the premises, ensuring privacy for guests during their stay.

For those seeking further exploration, the historic enclave of Bodden Town lies just 10 minutes away, offering charm and personality amidst traditional homes and a vibrant fish hut. Venture northeast to Rum Point for its renowned beach bar, or head east to East End, a quaint residential area with delightful restaurants and beachside bars. Alternatively, journey west to bustling George Town and Seven Mile Beach, boasting pristine coastlines, shopping plazas, water sports, entertainment, and an array of spectacular dining options.

Nice house in great location for privacy. Had everything we needed including a kayak. The outdoor seating area was particularly nice as was the heated pool. We will definitely consider returning.

Great week!

I booked this for our family, which consists of my wife and two kids (56) and I. We stayed for a week and the place was clean and very nice. The property manager and the caretaker were both nice and helpful. Would definitely recommend. The area is very peaceful and the view was spectacular as advertised.

Overall great place

We loved our stay at Casa Tortuga. The interior was well-kept and modern and the heated pool was a very nice amenity. Only improvements to be made - at times there was an unpleasant odor around the pool area that we couldn’t determine the source of. Additionally, the needles from the trees littered the pool and beach area, but we understand it requires a lot of maintenance. Overall, great place to stay and would stay again!

Casa Tortuga Private Stay

It was very nice and private. Absolutely loved the variety of chickens! The view is very pretty and the pool was warm and crystal clear. We mostly were doing things around the island and having fun checking out the beaches. We were sad to leave!

Amazing house on a beautiful beach

We enjoyed our stay at this incredibly beautiful, relaxing and enjoyable house. The view was breathtaking. The pool was amazing. And the welcoming committee wasn’t too bad either (the local chickens.). We enjoyed feeding them every day. So glad we picked this house for our stay.

Wonderful location

We absolutely loved the location of this house. It was very quiet and felt like your own private beach. The inside of the house was spotless and very clean. The outside of the house is lacking in maintenance. It could use some work. Overall the house is gorgeous but just needs less clutter and more work done to the outside.

Great Weekend Getaway

6 of us (3 couples) spent a long weekend at Casa Tortuga. The property was a great place to hang out and relax. The beach area, pool and gazebo were all well used, as were the kayaks and paddleboards. The kitchen is large and equipped with everything we needed.

Family Vacation

Casa Tortuga was exactly as pictured and described. It was the perfect place for us to stay with our 2 grown daughters/partners. Everyone had their own space and then large comfortable common areas both inside and out. The house was clean and well stocked. The pool was wonderful and the beach was well enjoyed. I would highly recommend it. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

Great Home, The Best Location

Basically a private beach home, only saw one or two people a day walking, otherwise complete privacy. Easy to get to Seven Mile Beach or Rum Point, best restaurants are east 5 minutes (Tukka). Manager let us stay longer for checkout which was very nice. The others reviews were accurate in that bedding and cleaning could use more upgrades but, that seems minor, the party was outside.

Relaxing Vacation

Casa Tortuga is a well kept villa with all the comforts of home. Our favor times were spent in the gazebo overlooking the beach and water. It is totally private but not to far from good restaurants. It delivered everything we wanted in our vacation. No other tourists, no crowded beach and just plain peace and quiet in a picturesque setting. We will differently go back.

Perfect for Our Family

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Awesome experience for my husband and I plus our two adult daughters and their guys. Just the right amount of space for everyone. We tried to see all the sights on Cayman, but by the end of the week everyone just wanted to hang at the house, being on the beach, hanging at the pool and chilling in the gazebo. Highly recommend!! Felt like we had the entire sound to ourselves.

Peaceful getaway

This beautiful gem in the East End had everything we needed for a relaxing and much needed 40th birthday getaway! Positioned between Rum Point and 7 mile beach it gave us the ability to enjoy the entire Cayman island instead of just one small portion of it. Ms Lisa the property manager was absolutely a gem, very easy to contact should we need her. At the end of the stay there was some confusion on my part where to drop of the property key, and she can met us at the airport to come get it. Would recommend this place to anyone needing that perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of their fast paced life!

Great villa, beautiful beach!

Casa Tortuga was perfect for my family of 4 - myself, my husband and our older teen daughters. We had plenty of space and the beach was gorgeous. Made good use of the kayaks and paddle boards. Recommend bringing snorkeling gear if you have it (the house did have enough for 2 people) because there is lots to see right off the beach. The location is great in that every part of the island is no more than a 40 minute drive, and it's quiet and peaceful. The only drawback was when we wanted to go out but didn't feel like driving - there really is nothing nearby. We didn't need much during our stay as everything was in order, but for the couple requests we did have, the caretaker and property manager were extremely responsive. Would definitely recommend Casa Tortuga.

Beautiful location

We traveled here with 2 other couple and it was amazing. The location of the property was fabulous. Quiet, serene, and the sunrises were amazing. The only issue we had was the communication with the Cayman Villas. We had no direction as to how to access the property. We called, left a message and never received a call back. We showed up at the property and Mitch (neighbor) showed us in and gave us a overview of the property. He was amazing.

Quiet Getaway

This house is on the quieter side of the island, the seclusion was nice. The water isn’t as tempting to swim in as the other side of the island, there is a lot of grass growing beneath the surface and a lot of seaweed washes up on shore, but it is great for kayaking and paddle boarding. The space inside was nice, plenty of rooms and parking. Basic seasonings and plenty of dishes in the cupboards. Mosquitos are bad right at dusk, bring the repellent, we left a bottle for future guests. Plenty of parking. Pool was very enjoyable. Glad there were latch locks on the inside of the doors to help us feel safe.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property had it all: privacy, amazing location, beautiful views, indoor and outdoor activities. Our toddlers loved the swimming pool, and it kept them entertained for hours. My wife and I enjoyed walking along the beach and sitting in the gazebo taking in the spectacular view. The area is very quiet, and the property offers a great deal of privacy. We also enjoyed its central location. We were easily able to travel to the east, west, and north sides of the island. We cannot wait to return.
