Book a hotel near Babylon, Cayman Islands

"We really enjoyed this condo and getting away from the crowds at Cayman. New construction and everything in the unit was as advertised except we could not find snorkel gear and the property manager was unable to resolve that concern after a couple of communication attempts. The small exercise room is also still under construction, so not available during our stay. Rental car is a 100% must. Major grocery shops and most excursions are closer to the airport; 30-40 minutes away. On the east end (north side) we enjoyed meals at the Wyndam resort (10 min) (you can rent snorkel gear but not their chairs), Rum Point (12 min) (chairs are free, but you can't take your own food/drink), and Over the Edge (3 min). This is a private beach, but not ideal for swimming as it's rocky and there are numerous sea urchins nestled in the rocks. If you have a kayak or protective footwear you could venture out, but it's not really a swimming/wading beach like 7 mile beach where the resorts are. It also wasn't obvious to us prior to arrival, but each building has two units. The ground floor is one, and then this rental is the second floor and the rooftop area. No complaints, except that all the living space is really on a single level. We used the rooftop space extensively! The unit was nicely furnished, including several consumables we often have to purchase for vacation rentals: laundry/dish soap, paper products, etc."

"First time to GC and found this amazing house! Absolutely perfect for 6 adults (can accommodate 10) who were looking for some R&R away from the tourist areas on the island (SMB). This house was magnificent and in a wonderful location in Old Man Bay on the North Side (easy to drive back to SMB for a day trip and not that far). We did rent 2 cars - very reasonable and easy to drive on opposite side of the road! There were plenty of restaurants nearby, local places as well, and right between Chisolms and Fosters for groceries. Jacques Liquor store is next to Fosters & there is one next to the Welcome Center (where there is a very nice gym). Also, house is located only 10-15 minutes to Rum Pointe and Kaibo - both are a MUST! Three rooms in the house upstairs each have a queen bed and full private bathrooms, as well as a fourth room downstairs with 2 twin bed next to a powder room. The pool is not heated but you don't need it to be - so refreshing! And the VIEWS out back - indescribable! The small "beach" area out the back is rocky (bring water shoes) but was perfect for launching the 2 kayaks. The kitchen was very well-equipped for all of our needs, very clean, and we also used the BBQ out back too (you may need to buy some charcoal). The whole process of checking in at the Welcome Center was so easy and they are so friendly & helpful with picking up snorkeling gear for everyone in our group! I would totally recommend staying here and would love to return some day!!"

"Wonderful get away in paradise."

"Our stay here was just what we needed. It was perfect for 2 families to unwind, spread out and enjoy the sound of the waves. We loved the quiet location. Just minutes from everything we wanted to do involving kids, ages 9-16. So close to go diving and the snorkeling was superb. Highly recommended if you like to stay away from tourist traps. Thank you so much!"

"Overall the property is lovely. So happy we stayed there and not on Seven Mile Beach. Condo could use a little TLC but the location is awesome and you can snorkel right out front."

"The house was spacious and amazing. Having a private beach with the amenities of a home made this a great place. We had a few questions during the stay and Brooke was super responsive and helpful. Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again if/when we make it back to Cayman."
