A rental car is highly recommended. Taxi cabs are unreliable and expensive outside of town and Seven Mile Beach. Plus, there is no Uber or Lyft on the island.
For rental cars, we recommend Budget Cayman, Avis, Marshalls, or Hertz.
***Villa Cleaning & Sanitation***
All villas are cleaned and sanitized prior to 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. 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.
The water behind Wight Away is on a canal, providing easy launching of kayaks and paddleboards, as well as dockside service for charters. The backyard beach does not extend into the water. For a true beachfront experience, guests can walk 5 minutes to the Rum Point Club. This public beach spot features a white sandy beach with complimentary beach service, a restaurant with an open-air bar, plus watersport rentals, public changing rooms, and beach volleyball. Guests will find excellent snorkeling under the dock and along the coral heads to the right of the dock.
***Ocean Debris & Sargassum Seaweed***
Beaches in Grand Cayman may also experience floating ocean debris and sargassum weed seasonally. The water behind Wight Away is rarely ever affected by Sargassum, as it is protected.
