clusive condos are being built,” notes Penny Cumber, managing
director for Cayman Villas. “Both houses and condos are becom-
ing more deluxe, many of which have a private pool, some with
hot tub and gym.”

Aside from its most luxurious properties, Cayman Villas also of-
fers properties for the average traveler. Over 100 properties,
some starting at US $99 a night, are represented. “Cayman
Villas specializes in beachfront condos and private houses rang-
ing from economy to deluxe, from studios to seven bedrooms.
Most condos are on Seven Mile Beach. Most private houses are
at Cayman Kai but there are many other quiet beaches around
Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac and Little Cayman on which we
also have villas. Guests can be on their own private beach and
in the midst of all the action.” Do a little research to decide what
kind of property would best suit your needs.

B e sure to ask about the complimentary bottle of
champagne for honeymooners! You can celebrate as
soon as you arrive.
