About this property

Welcome to Neptune’s Nest at East End Paradise Villas! As seen recently on HGTV, Neptune’s Nest is a charming, two-story, detached home in a small development of 10 pastel-colored villas. Located in the quiet area of East End, this 3-bedroom, 3.5 bath property is far away from the cruise ship crowds and the busy tourist beaches, but close to wonderful restaurants, spectacular diving/snorkeling sites, and secluded, natural beaches. Enjoy gorgeous sea views from both the balcony and patio, take a dip in one of five cascading freshwater pools with waterfalls and whirlpool, or take a walk along the tranquil shoreline just across the street. There are beach chairs, pool toys, beach gear, picnic baskets, and two kayaks to make your stay even more delightful.
Inside, the open floor-plan comes with a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable living room, generous dining area (seats 6-8), and a separate half bath for convenience. The first floor bedroom has queen-size bed, a window view to the sea, and a private, en-suite, full bath.
Just up the stairs is the master suite, with a vaulted ceiling, a luxurious king bed, and a lovely balcony with sea views --perfect for coffee in the morning! The master en-suite bath has views to sea, dual sinks, a large soaker tub, and separate shower. The charming third bedroom, with a queen size bed and a fold-out twin, has access to the balcony and a separate full bath across the hall. Laundry is a breeze with a convenient full-size, washer/dryer by the stairwell and an iron and ironing board close at hand. All bedrooms have TVs with Blu-ray players; master has cable TV, as does the living room. Enjoy many other amenities such as WIFI, PlayStation, DVDs, board/card games, and puzzles, as well as a local phone available for use.
Small shops, (including grocery and liquor), and restaurants are within 1 to 5 minutes’ drive. You can take Eco bike rides to discover East End (1 min drive), visit the new Parrot Sanctuary (4 min drive), build sand castles at Collier's Beach (5 min drive), or explore the Queen's Botanic Park (12 min drive). If scuba is your passion, complete the well-known “Green Shorts Challenge" (55 East End dive sites) at the first class PADI dive center, Ocean Frontiers, approximately 1 mile away. After a full day of adventure, Neptune's Nest is a welcome retreat.

Perfect vacation spot in East End

A wonderful villa with everything you could need. Lots of water toys, pool towels, kitchen appliances and cookware, spices etc. The pools are great and Trish is a wonderful hostess, even taking time to teach our girls a domino train game which is a new family favorite! Trish shared lots of great information about grocery options prior to our arrival as these are limited as you get out to the East End. Within walking distance of Ocean Frontiers dive shop and Eagle Rays, as well as Eastern Star fish fry (must try the passion fruit mojitos). We also walked to Ocean Frontiers to get the complimentary shuttle to Tukkas (prebooked). Would love to stay here again - such a comfortable and welcoming place that all 4 of us loved. Thank you Trish for a wonderful family vacation!

Great East End Property

Beautiful, well maintained property with lots of amenities. The Neptune's nest gave us a nice feel for a local neighborhood after staying at a resort the week before. Trish was a great host. She provided lots of recommendations for places to eat and things to do.

Perfect Stay

Neptune's Nest made our week easy, comfortable, and luxurious for everyone. Lots of little touches that show that the host takes pride in the house, but also really cares about the guests -- just one example: little footbaths at the entrances dressed up with flower petals. Everything was clean and well functioning. 3 full and one half bath for the 3 bedrooms really helped us get out the door on time each day. We cooked most nights, got take out from the local places a couple times, and made one trip out to the West side; that was the right ratio. The kitchen is the best equipped I've ever stayed in. Make sure to buy groceries before driving East. The multiple pools hared with the small group of houses meant that we always had our own pool if we wanted it. The little beach across the street was nicer than expected. It's in a natural state (no one is clearing the seaweed) but there is a small strip of sand along the water's edge where you can sit under a coconut palm tree and pretend you are on a private island. We never felt the need to go to the more famous beaches, (but we are more nature oriented people.) The host provides a closet packed with all the gear you could need -- chairs, umbrellas, beach towels... even water shoes and a cooler. Host was instantly responsive to any questions. We would have liked Grand Cayman and the East End just fine, but this house made it a truly wonderful trip.

Overall it was a nice rental for the price

Trish met us at the house when we arrived. She was very thorough in going over all instructions and telling us where everything was. Very friendly and had lots of recommendations for our island stay. But, she is very particular on the house and things she wants done. It did feel a bit overwhelming. Be advised, she is very worried about the AC temps, and asked us to keep them turned up multiple times. She also came by during our stay and raised them to 74-75 when we were out of the house. The house itself was very well stocked with everything you could need, including snorkel, beach, and pool gear. Very clean, and looks like it has been newly painted. It is a good size rental for a family or multiple couples. The stairwell to the second story is very steep and small, so be wary with small children. We were on high alert with the setup with our 3 year old the entire stay. There is a bedroom downstairs, but it is not the master. The property is a little rough around the house and in the area. Not the cleanest or most aesthetically appealing area of the island for sure. Just a mile up the East end, near Morrits, things get much nicer. The property was very quiet and we did feel safe overall. The beach is across the road. It is not a beach that kids can play on or you would want to lounge on. The reef is quite a swim out, through a lot of rocks and sea grass. If you are looking for a beach for the kids or you to hang out and enjoy some time on, you will have to go to

About the host

Hosted by Trish & Tim

Trish is a multi-generational Caymanian whose ancestors were some of the original inhabitants of Grand Cayman, arriving from England in the 1700's. Her husband, Tim, now a Caymanian, is an American born in Iowa, but has lived all over the the U.S. and worked for fortune 500 corporations. Together, they are a wonderful team of local knowledge and business acumen. They have travelled the world and truly understand what is necessary to not only be great hosts, but to also be great guests.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property because the East End reminds us of how Cayman used to be 30 years ago - quieter and simpler. The beautiful pastel colours of the villas always made us smile as we drove past, and we used to think how lovely it would be to own one. It is such a magical place!

What makes this property unique

We truly love this property and the serenity we feel when we are here. Our absolute favorite thing is to sit up on the balcony in the morning (with our coffee), and listen to sound of the waves as they roll over the reef. Pure heaven. It's also the perfect spot for an evening glass of wine or a nightcap!
