Les Jalousies

Guests of this accommodation can take advantage of the benefits included in the Silver Thatch Membership. Contact a Rental Escapes villa specialist for the full list of benefits. Premium amenities are available for a separate charge.

Les Jalousies is a breathtakingly decorated, newly-renovated beach villa nestled in the exclusive resort neighborhood of Cayman Kai. Guests staying at Les Jalousies will enjoy the utmost privacy with a gated driveway, lush tropical landscaping, and vacant lots on either side of the villa. Guests can relax and unwind in complete seclusion at this tropical sanctuary.

Conveniently located within a short drive to Rum Point Beach, guests are also only a five-minute walk from The Kaibo Marina and Starfish Point. A rental car is strongly recommended, as taxi service is unreliable outside of Seven Mile Beach and there is no Uber or Lyft on the island.

Upon arrival, your on-island property manager will meet and greet you to answer any questions you may have about the area and provide a tour of the villa. Your property manager can also arrange additional housekeeping services should you require it. A caretaker comes included with the villa to maintain the property grounds raking the beach in the mornings and tidying the pool deck and outdoor grilling station. Grocery delivery can be ordered in advance of your arrival with pre-stocking handled by the caretaker free of charge.

The oceanfront great room is the indoor focal point of this home, with its vaulted ceilings and 24-foot wide wall of glass doors leading to the veranda and pool deck. The pool is set below the veranda on a wood deck laid above the sand, offering guests an immersive experience with beachfront views while cooling off during the hot summer months. Ceiling fans under the veranda provide an additional breeze for guest comfort. Multiple hammocks and palms trees line the backyard. Beyond that, the villa's private dock extends 100' from the beach over the clear water and is capped with a thatched cabana and two swinging benches.

Inside, a contemporary chef's kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances including a built-in Sub-Zero freezer, two Sub-Zero fridges, a Miele steam oven, and two sinks each with its own dishwasher. The marble island is enormous and a natural gathering place. The Petrof grand piano in the living area is left unlocked and open for guests to play and enjoy.

Les Jalousies is configured to sleep six guests across three bedrooms, with another two guests (10 years or older) sleeping in the media room with an adjacent full bathroom.

Beach Notes
The white sand beach behind Les Jalousies is pure, barefoot beach sand. One can easily walk up the beach around Starfish Point. This quiet area faces south so in winter months when a cold front brings winds from the north or east, the beach and veranda areas tend to remain quite calm. We can certainly have storms from the south, but those are rare.

Facing the sound, the waters behind Les Jalousies are clear and calm. The villa sits on a protected marine zone and benefits from a robust coastal ecosystem. The villa's wooden dock attracts schools of small and large tropical fish with the occasional visit from a stingray or two. Egrets flying overhead in search of their next meal speaks to the biodiversity blossoming in the villa's backyard.

All beaches in Grand Cayman are technically open to the public, but you will not see traffic behind Les Jalousies due to lack of access. We also recommend walking 10 minutes up the street to the Rum Point Beach (2-minute drive). The Rum Point Club also offers a bar and grill, plus lounge chaises, and diverse water sports menu to keep you active.

Our guests usually enjoy sitting on the beach at Les Jalousies and watching the sun sink in the west with their toes in the sand and a beverage in their hand!

General Grand Cayman Beach Notes
All beaches in Grand Cayman are technically “public” since the Queen owns up to the high watermark and the shoreline quality behind your property may vary seasonally. Be advised that the beach or water entry behind your property may vary slightly from the images on our website because of the weather/mother nature.

Ocean Debris and Sargassum Seaweed
Beaches in the east, south, and north of Grand Cayman may also experience floating ocean debris and sargassum weed seasonally. Les Jalousies is blessed with a prime location sheltered from currents that very rarely bring sargassum or flotsam to its beach.

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. The owners do make efforts to remove heavy sargassum and will have the beach raked prior to your arrival. The on-site caretaker will rake the beach daily during your stay.
