Casa Tortuga - private beachfront villa with pool - Call Cayman Villas!
Casa Tortuga beckons those seeking tranquility, seclusion, and serenity amidst 180 feet of private beachfront! Nestled in the idyllic Frank Sound on the southern shore of Grand Cayman, this villa boasts an unrivaled position on a stunning south-facing beach, offering captivating vistas of the Caribbean Sea that reaffirm the existence of paradise.
This single-level home offers guests three generously sized bedrooms, each accompanied by an ensuite bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen, and a spacious living/dining area—all conveniently situated on the ground level. Abundant natural light floods the interiors through sliding doors and large windows, while the gentle sea breezes invite you to open up and revel in the refreshing coastal air. Outside, the inviting gazebo and tropical breezes create an irresistible ambiance for al fresco dining, morning coffee, leisurely lunches, or sunset cocktails, ensuring relaxation throughout the day.
True to its name, Casa Tortuga pays homage to the owner's fondness for turtles, reflected in the unique décor and furnishings that adorn the home. Catering to various guest configurations, whether a small family, a group of friends, or couples seeking privacy and relaxation, Casa Tortuga offers a welcoming retreat for all.
Set upon a fenced-in 2-acre plot, the home boasts a winding driveway flanked by lush coconut trees leading to the entrance. Surrounded by verdant tropical gardens and mere steps from the tranquil Caribbean Sea, guests can indulge in some of the island's finest snorkeling, with the chance of encountering a graceful turtle or two. Following a day of aquatic adventures, unwind by the poolside, soaking in the warmth of the tropical breezes. A gas BBQ stands ready for the designated chef to grill up freshly caught fish, readily available from local fishermen. Please note that a groundskeeper resides in a small cottage on the premises, ensuring privacy for guests during their stay.
For those seeking further exploration, the historic enclave of Bodden Town lies just 10 minutes away, offering charm and personality amidst traditional homes and a vibrant fish hut. Venture northeast to Rum Point for its renowned beach bar, or head east to East End, a quaint residential area with delightful restaurants and beachside bars. Alternatively, journey west to bustling George Town and Seven Mile Beach, boasting pristine coastlines, shopping plazas, water sports, entertainment, and an array of spectacular dining options.

We had a great time! We used the kayak a lot for snorkeling and loved the heated pool! Very clean home with everything we needed. The chickens were also very fun. We would stay again.Thank You
Great location, well stocked house, and very quiet area. While we were on the island there were high winds and rough surf, this location was not affected. It was a nice sanctuary while seeing the rest of the island get beat up. Plenty of space and every one had a good time.One thing to be aware of, the traffic back towards Georgetown and the airport can get bad. If you have a bunch of activities that direction it can get rough. If you don't have activities to the west the traffic does not impact you at all.
We loved our stay at Casa Tortuga. The house was as described, it was clean, comfortable and we love the whimsical turtles everywhere. I think we probably overused the pool, we couldn’t stay out of it. We always started our day with morning coffee in the gazebo. The view was just amazing. I hope one day we could return!
Nice house in great location for privacy. Had everything we needed including a kayak. The outdoor seating area was particularly nice as was the heated pool. We will definitely consider returning.
I booked this for our family, which consists of my wife and two kids (56) and I. We stayed for a week and the place was clean and very nice. The property manager and the caretaker were both nice and helpful. Would definitely recommend. The area is very peaceful and the view was spectacular as advertised.
It was very nice and private. Absolutely loved the variety of chickens! The view is very pretty and the pool was warm and crystal clear. We mostly were doing things around the island and having fun checking out the beaches. We were sad to leave!
We enjoyed our stay at this incredibly beautiful, relaxing and enjoyable house. The view was breathtaking. The pool was amazing. And the welcoming committee wasn’t too bad either (the local chickens.). We enjoyed feeding them every day. So glad we picked this house for our stay.

We loved this home right on the beach with a clean, private pool. It was fully equipped with towels, sunscreen, and swim toys. The home was very spacious and comfortable.
6 of us (3 couples) spent a long weekend at Casa Tortuga. The property was a great place to hang out and relax. The beach area, pool and gazebo were all well used, as were the kayaks and paddleboards. The kitchen is large and equipped with everything we needed.
We loved our stay at Casa Tortuga. The interior was well-kept and modern and the heated pool was a very nice amenity. Only improvements to be made - at times there was an unpleasant odor around the pool area that we couldn’t determine the source of. Additionally, the needles from the trees littered the pool and beach area, but we understand it requires a lot of maintenance. Overall, great place to stay and would stay again!
Loved everything about this property. We were on our honeymoon. It is a perfect location for privacy, yet close enough to reach all parts of the island. The beach was literally in the back yard and the gazebo offered a scenic spot for morning coffee and evening cocktails. The pool was a welcome addition for relaxing. The grounds were well maintained and had beautiful flowering plants and amazing palm trees. The home was equipped with every item we needed. I already miss the chickens. We loved our stay and can't wait to return one day.
We absolutely loved the location of this house. It was very quiet and felt like your own private beach. The inside of the house was spotless and very clean. The outside of the house is lacking in maintenance. It could use some work. Overall the house is gorgeous but just needs less clutter and more work done to the outside.

Awesome experience for my husband and I plus our two adult daughters and their guys. Just the right amount of space for everyone. We tried to see all the sights on Cayman, but by the end of the week everyone just wanted to hang at the house, being on the beach, hanging at the pool and chilling in the gazebo. Highly recommend!! Felt like we had the entire sound to ourselves.
Casa Tortuga was perfect for my family of 4 - myself, my husband and our older teen daughters. We had plenty of space and the beach was gorgeous. Made good use of the kayaks and paddle boards. Recommend bringing snorkeling gear if you have it (the house did have enough for 2 people) because there is lots to see right off the beach. The location is great in that every part of the island is no more than a 40 minute drive, and it's quiet and peaceful. The only drawback was when we wanted to go out but didn't feel like driving - there really is nothing nearby. We didn't need much during our stay as everything was in order, but for the couple requests we did have, the caretaker and property manager were extremely responsive. Would definitely recommend Casa Tortuga.
The location is excellent in relation to being on the water, and it is recommended you rent a car if you expect to go out for dinner or seeing the sights. The pool is nice and heated, however we had to call the pool company as the heater stopped working which was apparently due to a lack of maintenance. The grounds are adequate but again in need of general upkeep as we saw trash near the gazebo and behind the pool. The house is nice but in some need of updating or repair ie microwave, knobs on stove, refrigerator ice maker etc. No one came by all week to check on how we were or if we needed anything. As we have stayed in properties in the USA, Mexico, and Europe, this one would not be on the top of the list. For the price i would overall recommend seeking another venue.

Great place with amazing views, well stocked house with everything you need, kayak, paddle boards, snorkel equipment etc..and a well stocked kitchen. Large beach front area, very secluded and private beach. Air conditioning worked very well, internet was fast and the house overall nice. While there is so many positive things about Casa Tortuga, the only two negatives was the outdoor gas grill was nasty, dirty, disgusting and should be replaced. The other was a very noisy rooster that starts a very loud ****-doodle-do at 4:45 AM, like clock work every morning and continues throughout the day, stops around 7 PM. We used earplugs and did a lot of excursions, but there was times where it got to be annoying, (therefore I removed a star from the review). Overall, we would definitely stay at this property again if we return to the Cayman Islands.

If you’re looking for laid back privacy with amazing views, this is the spot! First off, I felt like it was perfectly located! Close enough to get to 7 mile without being in 7 mile...which is way too busy for our taste. We could easily hop over to Rum Point to swim with sea turtles and have amazing food at Kaibo. Sunrise at Colliers Beach. The Parrot Sanctuary is very close and a fun place. Crystal Caves is close. The blow holes and lovers wall also very close. There’s so much to do and see! We also had everything we needed here..double kayak, paddle boards, heated pool, beachfront, washer and dryer and even a keurig machine. It felt clean and comfortable. Yes there is some seaweed down by the beach but it’s just a natural feel and you step right over it and it didn’t smell at all. No big deal! The water is warm and blue and I LOVED the chickens running around with their babies! I could go on and on. Also go explore the deserted beaches along the Queens Hwy. So many treasures! Wonderful trip!
Casa Tortuga was the perfect home base for our Cayman Christmas vacation!!! As advertised, the home is secluded with a private beach and pool. We loved that there were paddle boards and a kayak available for use. You can snorkel in the sound behind the house.
The owners have provided everything you need to cook a meal and feel at home during your stay. Including snorkel gear and extra beach towels.
Several reviews refer to the beach area being ‘dirty’ and I would describe this as more of a natural beach feel. If you’re looking for the pristine sand beaches without some grass in the water, you may want to stay elsewhere. We thought it was beautiful and enjoyed how private and quiet this spot was - away from the hustle and bustle. Plenty of room to spread out in the living and kitchen.
Would definitely recommend renting a car if you want to go shopping or out to eat. There aren’t many options close to the house.
We enjoyed the beautiful sunsets views from the gazebo and relaxing in the pool. My only suggestion for improvement would be to replace the pillows for all of the bedrooms. They are quite worn and uncomfortable- that’s not really a matter of preference. I read a response from the property management from early 2023 saying the bedding was going to be updated but that had not occurred by the time of our stay for Christmas 2023. If you’re really particular about your bedding - just bring your own.

A lovely place to stay away from the hustle and bustle of 7 Mile Beach and so many round-a-bouts. The few minor problems we had were quickly taken care of by Carl and Shaneika. Overall a wonderful place to stay, however, being the klutz that I am I would have preferred a feww less tchotchkes. :-)

Overall really nice experience! Very clean home with ample space, amenities, and access to local shopping/dining within a short drive. Most impressive was the calm and private beach access. If you’re looking a quiet getaway that’s removed from hustle/bustle, this is a great spot for the price.
