Our stay at So Serene could not have been more perfect. The house is lovely, spacious, beautifully appointed, and has everything you need for a wonderful stay. Having a screened porch overlooking the ocean was perfect, we spent every day there. The location overlooking the beach provides stunning ocean views and felt extremely private, we only saw one or two people walking along the beach in that location. We enjoyed snorkeling along the reef right in front of the house, and enjoyed the warm hot tub on the terrace. Any questions or needs that we had before and during our stay were responded to instantly. We would highly recommend this first-class residence to anyone visiting the Caymans!

There was an issue with the HVAC units in the downstairs’ living room and bedroom that required us to reach out to the management several times. On the upside we had immediate assistance. The pool company stopped by while we were at the house to clean and check the chemicals in the hot tub. The house was fully stocked with everything you could possibly need in the kitchen, there was plenty of towels, and the easy beach to water access to snorkel (saw a lot of fish) was a big bonus! There are a few things I’d would suggest for the owners would be to place rubber mats at the doors, on the inside, of the screened in porch. It rained a couple days and the water would pool up on the tile floor, making it extremely slippery. Two, place liquid soap bottles in the bathrooms to wash hands. Third, maybe think about installing a swimming pool. Some of the days the water was too rough to swim in and it would have been nice to have a pool. And finally, have someone come rack the beach multiple times a week when the sea grass is heavy. By the end of our week stay the beach was covered with at least 5 feet deep by a foot high of the smelly grass.

We were impressed with how quiet the location is. We decided to try a house instead of a resort and it paid off. With two active teens, we did plenty of excursions but they really loved "chillin" on the porch. The breeze is constant and its always pleasant. The Seaweed and rocks at the beach are a bit of an obstacle, but we still snorkled a ton and saw some great things! if you aren't a morning person, you are missing out on INCREDIBLE sunrises! Overall, a great family getaway. Pack masks and fins!

Beautiful!

The house, location and hot tub were amazing. We stayed during high seaweed season which was a little different but if you go out snorkeling beyond the seaweed it’s amazing.( also it did not stink like other parts of the island). We saw stingray, schools of squid , tons of fish, giant lobsters etc.. starfish point is close for great sunsets but we took a ton of pics on our own beach too. It’s quiet, beautiful and has a pleasant wind. The rooms in the house are huge with a couch bed in each; my kids didn’t want to leave. We cooked almost every night, played cards at the dining table, played music on the speakers and utilized the hot tub several times a day. I highly recommend this house if you are looking for a splurge for a fun family vacation. Also botanical gardens and stingray city are definitely worth a visit. Enjoy!

An Unforgettable Stay at So Serene – Grand Cayman Perfection!Staying at So Serene felt like stepping into a dream. The home itself is stunning—immaculately appointed with every detail thoughtfully curated, yet it still feels warm and welcoming, as if a dear friend handed you the keys to their luxurious island retreat.The views are nothing short of breathtaking. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee or watching the sunset, the endless horizon and turquoise waters leave you in awe. And the snorkeling? Incredible. Just steps from the back door, we encountered lionfish, barracuda, lobster, stingray and a colorful array of marine life that made every swim feel like an adventure. The Kayaks made getting closer to the reef a breeze.This is more than just a vacation rental - So Serene is a true slice of paradise!

"So Serene" really is so serene.

A beautiful home in a peaceful, tranquil part of a stunning island. My family and I - my wife, my brother and sister-in-law and 2 kids had a lovely stay at "So Serene". The house was large and perfect for this amount of people - plenty of beds and lots of room to spread out. The views from the home over the Ocean are spectacular - visible from every window and so calming. Likewise, the beach that the home backs up to was so quiet and peaceful. It was lovely to sit on the beach chairs at the end of the day and just listen to the Ocean. The location was the perfect balance between being away from the hustle and bustle of Georgetown while still having easy access to all the necessities - groceries etc and some great restaurants. Definitely one of my favorite places to stay to date. We're already planning our return trip!

Wonderful stay in Rum Point

The villa is very comfortable, clean and well stocked. It is located in the very quiet and secluded neighborhood, away from 7 mile crowds and traffic. We had a slight issue with the air conditioning in the main area, and it was resolved within an hour of calling the property manager. Roy was great and very helpful. We have thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub, the sunroom and main area. Our only suggestion would be to update the mattress in the master bedroom. The old mattress is not very comfortable.

Perfect piece of Paradise

The layout of So Serene is perfect for couples traveling together. It is a beautiful home with everything you need for your stay. We enjoy being away from the touristy areas to experience all that our destination has to offer, without crowds. So Serene did not disappoint. The home is perfectly located in a quiet area, but not too far from East End restaurants and Rum Point. We all brought our own snorkel gear. We checked in, dropped our bags, put on our suits and hit the water. We snorkeled right out the back door multiple times during our stay and snorkeled along the gentle current over to Rum Point several times. It's close enough to walk back. We did travel to the West side on a couple of days that ships weren't in and it was less than an hour drive. Everyone on the So Serene team was a delight to work with. We would all stay here again in a heartbeat.

Beautiful home, Excellent location

North side / Rum Point location was exactly what we were looking for, very peaceful, beautiful views and out-the-back-door access to the beach and great snorkeling. Centrally located to lots of activities. Many boat charters pick up nearby at Kaibo which was very convenient. House was clean, sizable for our family of six, but cozy at the same time. My wife absolutely loved the master suite vibe. Soft/comfortable beds. Kids loved the place and access to the beach. Owners were extremely responsive, and were incredibly helpful / flexible when we had airline issues impacting our arrival / departure. Bring your own shampoo/soap, etc

House is beautiful. Everything was clean. I was able to call or message the host anytime I needed something and they were there right away to rectify any issues.WiFi was spotty around the house. Worked best in living room and one bedroom. However, they did send someone to try to help - just couldn't get it to work in the other rooms. The house is walking distance to Rum Point Club which was nice to have a bar, restaurant and beach to hang out where you can also rent snorkel gear and jet skis. There is also a gift shop at Run Point Club. The local grocery is a few minute drive if you need anything. The shore is a little rocky just behind the house - but you can walk past with swim shoes to snorkel because it is shallow. However - be sure to use a pool noodle or have someone in the kayak with you when snorkeling just off the house because boats and jet skis do pass by close to the house.

So Serene is just what it looks like, and is a true gem! We were two families (4 5) with kids between 10 and 16. The hot tub was used quite a bit, and is an amazing place to relax after whatever activity you choose during the day. There is a reef right off the house that is a drift-snorkel that we explored all week. The house is on the windward side, so there can be chop unsuitable for any non-strong swimmers to get out past the sea grass to the reef.Rum point is a beautiful and quiet area away from the crowds. Make sure to book your tours from Rum Point to avoid a drive around the island. Trips we loved:- Cristal Caves- Swimming in Bioluminescent Bay- Swimming with the Stingrays - Kite Sailing (note: It's 1 hr drive to Barker Beach)- Cemetery beach Snorkeling in calmer waters than off the property.The management of this property is top notch and they responded (and resolved) right away to our requests for additional bedding and issues with the hot tub.6 Stars.

Hi,

My family has been making sweet memories at Rum Point in Grand Cayman for over 45 years. Our permanent home is in Kentucky, USA. My sister, Anita Miller, and I own and operate So Serene and Moon Glow next door.

When our parents first visited Cayman, they were brought to Rum Point by boat and there was no internet, technology, A/C or modern conveniences. Our fondest memories are of discovering the sea, game nights, reading books, and making new friends. We have seen lots of developments on the island, persevered though hurricanes, rebuilt, and always strived to be a thoughtful neighbor and help others who live full-time on the island.

Cayman really is a special place, especially the Cayman Kai/Rum Point area. We are delighted that you are considering a stay with us or have already made a reservation. If there is anything at all that we can do to help make your visit not only special, but also most memorable, then please connect with us. We hope that the memories that you make while staying at So Serene are some of your best ones ever and that they make you smile for a lifetime.

Thank you,

Vivek Sarin

Why they chose this property

Why So Serene for us?

When our family first discovered Cayman in the 1970's, our first vacation villa in Cayman was a 2 bedroom timeshare unit at the old Cayman Kai Resort. A number of years later, our parents purchased the current property and in 1991 designed and built So Serene. In 2000, we purchased the villa next door, Moon Glow.

This particular stretch of beach on the oceanside has always been special. While the sands shift, heading towards Rum Point to the west, there is a nice, clear area to walk free of coral and iron shore line. Also, the swim to the reef is easy to make and the marine life is incredible. All of the waters in front are apart of a protected marine park; so, it is like you are swimming in your own tropical aquarium. Do not be surprised to see sting rays, lobster, schools of fish, octopus, and crabs.

So Serene is the closest, rented oceanside villa to Rum Point. Along the road, it only takes 5 mins. to reach one of the most enjoyable areas on the island with lots to do.

When enjoying a stay at So Serene, you can pick a spot on the west side of the sundeck. From here, at just the right time, you can watch the moon rise over the sea and the sun set behind you. It is truly amazing. And, every clear morning, no matter where you sit, the sun rising over the sea looking eastward is so beautiful and a great way to begin each day.
