Self check-in

Check yourself in with the keypad.
Recently constructed, this one-bedroom waterfront home sits on approximately an acre of land with 100 feet of oceanfront. Our secluded south-side east beach property features a private pool and comfortable, shaded seating area. The house offers utmost privacy, as there are no close neighbours and with only one residence on the property, you will not share it with anyone else, nor will you share the pool. We are situated on Cayman Brac, a 30-minute flight from Grand Cayman via Cayman Airways.

The space
The house has been meticulously designed exclusively for couples, making it an ideal setting for anniversaries, romantic getaways, or simply seeking respite from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

The property boasts a lush landscape featuring a diverse array of Caribbean plants and trees. Notably, we have over 50 palm trees, and our expansive organic garden is predominantly composed of fruit trees, including coconut, papaya, banana, cherry, dragon fruit, lime and others. Guests are welcome to harvest these delectable fruits during their peak season.

The air-conditioned house is elegantly adorned with a modern Caribbean aesthetic, and each room offers an ocean view. The outdoor areas have been meticulously designed to maximize comfort, featuring a charming chat set with plush ottomans in both the shaded area and a screened room for the evenings. This design ensures that guests can enjoy the shade at any time of the day without the need to relocate furniture.

The yard and pool provide a secluded retreat, ensuring privacy and exclusivity. It is highly unlikely that guests will encounter anyone on the beach during their entire stay, as the property is situated in a remote location with no immediate neighbours. While the foreshore boasts sandy shores but the water’s edge is characterized by iron shore, a solid expanse of rock. This combination of iron shore and waves makes swimming from the beach a challenging endeavour, prompting guests to explore the numerous shore dive locations surrounding the island for aquatic activities such as swimming and snorkelling.

Cayman Brac is renowned for its exceptional safety, and most residents refrain from locking their homes or cars.

During your stay, renting a car is essential, as restaurants and grocery stores are located approximately 10 to 20 minutes from the house. To rent a car on Cayman Brac, individuals must be between the ages of 25 and 75.

To secure your booking, we kindly request that guests have prior positive Airbnb stays.

Guest access
Guests have access to the whole property.

Other things to note
Approximately five feral cats frequent our property and neighbouring properties. These cats are generally friendly, particularly when it is time for their feeding, which is provided in the garage. We encourage their presence as they effectively control the rodent population.

The cats primarily reside across the street and are strictly prohibited from entering the house, pool areas, or sitting spots. Individuals with allergies can avoid the cats altogether.

Here are some activities you can engage in during your stay:

Biking:
We have two bikes available for your use, allowing you to explore the island at your own pace.

Hiking:
Explore the Parrot Preserve or embark on the lighthouse trail to witness the Brown Booby nesting area. Cayman Brac offers numerous hiking opportunities.

Where you’ll be

Sister Islands, Cayman Islands

We are located on Cayman Brac, one of the three Cayman Islands. We are on the south east side of the island. It’s the quietest area on the island so it’s perfect for a morning stroll or jog or cycling. You won’t see many cars but quite a few walkers/cyclists. We have no immediate neighbors so the house is very private and chances are you won’t see anyone walking on the beach in front of the house during your entire stay.

Although there are some direct flights to Cayman Brac, we usually fly into Grand Cayman (GCM), and take a short 30 minute Cayman Airways flight to Cayman Brac (CYB). We suggest using your favorite travel web site to book your flight as far as Grand Cayman, and then booking directly with Cayman Airways for the flight from Grand Cayman to Cayman Brac.

Welcome to Bliss Beach House, we are Don and Sylvie. We have traveled the world for the past 10 years to find the perfect place with the most perfect climate where it is safe to live and play and where the locals are welcoming. We visited some great locales but when we came to Cayman Brac, we knew right away that this place was the right one! We like to travel as a couple and we were tired of renting 2 or 3 bedroom houses when we only needed one bedroom. We much prefer luxury, privacy and outdoor living space to a large house. We looked for houses on the island but couldn't find the perfect house so we bought the perfect lot, in the perfect location and designed our dream home: oceanfront, private pool, small inside but lots of outdoor living space and modern yet still with a Caribbean flare. Luxurious and private. Ocean views from every room in the house and gorgeous views of the bluff. Waterfront, with 1 acre of property which includes a large organic garden filled with exotic fruit trees, vegetable and herbs. It's newly planted, but we've already eaten June plum, coolie plum and pomegranate. You can pick what is in season.
