Hilltime: Beach House w/Pool, Backyard Snorkeling & Oceanfront Terraces in Rum Point!

***Property Overview***
Welcome to Hilltime, a spacious single-story beachfront villa located in beautiful Rum Point. Featuring multiple bedroom terraces, a private pool, and backyard snorkeling, Hilltime is a fabulous destination along the island's North Side.

Hilltime's family room has been reconfigured by separating the dining and living areas to free up space for everyone in your group to spread out. The living area has been reshuffled with sofa seating and a wall-mounted television opposite the kitchen area. A new dining table sits against the windows providing beachfront views with every meal. Vaulted ceilings and tall windows allow natural light and sweeping views to fill the home.

The new layout makes the best use of the space while accentuating the stunning ocean views throughout.

In addition to the family room, a double bunk room has been added to sleep 4 children or 2 adults. The bunk room comes furnished with a SmartTV and plush round poufs for comfy seating. The bunk room shares an adjacent hall bathroom with the East Bedroom.

Other upgrades include a Sonos Home Sound System. Set the vibe and let your favorite songs fill the home. A portable Sonos Move is located in the kitchen. Just grab it off its base and take your tunes to the beach or pool deck!

The villa's 5 bedrooms are divided by the family room with 2 on the west wing and 3 on the east wing.

The home's freshwater pool sits on the land-side of the villa protecting guests from trade winds in the winter and absorbing most of the sun's rays. Sail shades and all-new sun loungers circle the pool deck.

The pool deck also includes a cabana for shady relief from the island sun. For the grill master in your group, a new Weber propane grill is provided for island cookouts.

Inside, the gourmet kitchen comes equipped with everything you need to prepare a home-cooked meal. Modern appliances including dishware, utensils, glassware, and cookware are all provided. Hire a private chef for a night of in-villa dining or start your morning with a champagne brunch!

The beach behind the villa is wide and sandy with superb snorkeling inside the reef-protected shallows. Children, and the young at heart, will love the custom wood swing set installed along the beach. The property sits on a deep estate of over an acre with heavily landscaped grounds.

Plenty of off-street parking is available with room to turn around in the driveway.

***Villa Cleaning & Sanitation***
All villas are cleaned and sanitized before each guest's arrival. We also ask our owners to provide a starter supply of extra cleaning products. Additional housekeeping services can be purchased after booking in 3-hour time blocks. Scheduling may be coordinated with your property manager upon arrival.

***Beach Notes***
All beaches in Grand Cayman are technically public since the Crown owns up to the high watermark. Be advised, the beach or water entry behind your property may vary slightly from the images displayed due to shifting weather and tide patterns. The next-door beach is also always available for your use. We advise guests to wear foot protection (pool socks or aqua shoes) when entering the ocean to avoid injury on coral heads, ironshore, or rocks.

***Ocean Debris & Sargassum Seaweed***
Beaches in Grand Cayman may also experience floating ocean debris and sargassum weed seasonally. Sargassum is a generally harmless floating seaweed that has increased in frequency in recent years. Although sargassum is an unsightly nuisance, it is largely seasonal in summer. Our owners do make efforts to remove heavy sargassum and will have the beach raked before your arrival.

Should sargassum be extremely heavy behind your property, we will reach out to the owner for alternative solutions which may include a partial refund or relocation. We try our best to work around Mother Nature.
