SOLACE
 Our pool varies from 3-8ft
depths with consistently comfortable water temperatures. Its'
rectangular shape accommodates lap swimming for exercise. We offer
plenty of loungers for around the pool as well as on the beach
and shade can be found under the beach cabanas or poolside umbrellas.

Families are welcome!
SNORKELING
You
may have been drawn to Grand Cayman for the superb snorkeling
it offers, but did you know many of the stunning underwater treasures
and marine life found in the Caribbean are just a short swim from
the front of George Town Villas? Experience an array of Green
Sea Turtles, Parrotfish, Queen Angelfish, Grouper, Damselfish,
Fairy Basslet and more straight out from your door! You can find
fascinating formations of Coral as well as brilliant sea fans
and barrel sponges. One of the best kept snorkeling secrets on
the island, The Wreck of the Gamma,
is located a short swim south of George Town Villas.
Its
easy to be spoiled snorkeling Cayman with consistently mild water
temperatures primarily ranging between 77 82°. Caymans
crystalline waters provide some of the best aquatic visibility
in the world. Prime viewing is high noon, but bring plenty of
sunscreen because it's also prime sun burn time! Because George
Town Villas are located on the leeward, shallower side of the
island, the surge and wave heights are relatively low. Marine
life can be seen almost immediately upon beach entry. Snorkeling
gear can be purchased or rented next door. The young and the young
at heart will find snorkeling in Caymans calm waters an
easy, adventurous and unforgettable experience.
DUTY-FREE SHOPPING
Duty-Free
shopping translates into fabulous savings! There are many exciting
opportunities for you to save on such items as watches, china
and crystal, perfumes, fine jewelry and authentic treasure coin
jewelry in Grand Cayman. Prices on perfume, watches and select
luxury items may be as much as 30% less expensive in the Cayman
Islands. In addition to traditional duty free selections, varied
and interesting shopping from chic European fashions to outstanding
local art delight visitors in specialty stores, hotel boutiques
and shopping plazas. Quaint and picturesque Queen's Court Shopping
Centre (pictured here) and Seven Mile Shops are located right
next door.
SCUBA DIVING
The
Cayman Islands are well known as one of the top 10 dive paradises
in the world. One of Cayman's top Scuba Diving operations is located
right next door to George Town Villas and there are several others
nearby. We've dedicated an entire page, complete with links, to
this popular activity.
BEACH LIFE
Seven
Mile Beach is a beach walker's dream. An irresistible array of
tropical flora and fauna beckons the free spirit to walk along
Grand Caymans north western, turquoise shore. But, if leisure
alone is your goal, George Town Villas is located near the southern
end of Seven Mile Beach away from the center shore bustle and
nearer the tidal pools, birds and quietude. Its the
perfect lounging destination and our sunsets are unbeatable. Read
a first hand account on Beachcombing.
STINGRAY PLAY!
No
trip to Cayman would be complete without a trip to the world-renowned
Stingray City!
The 5-minute drive to the landings is a complimentary shuttle
with most tour operations, and the 30-minute boat trip to Sandbar, the
"Other" Stingray City is well worth the scenic ride.
No words can describe the experience of playing with these fascinatingly
graceful, gentle creatures. At Sandbar you dont even need
to snorkel to interact with the Rays, but you wouldn't want to
miss the underwater view of stingrays winging the current like
aquatic seagulls drifting in a breeze.
Sandbar
has evolved as a major tourist attraction over the years to nowadays
include guides feeding Sharks, Eel, giant Green Sea Turtles and
a rainbow of tropical fish just like the ones you'll find right
out in front of George Town Villas

CAYMAN
TURTLE FARM
This
one of a kind attraction is a wonderful compromise between the
needs of the people and environmental concerns. Turtles farmed
here provide the Caymanians with a traditional staple of their
diet and release many endangered turtles into the sea. Since 1980,
the Farm has released 29,000 turtles back into the sea to help
replenish the wild population. Once a year, citizens and visitors
are invited to carry hundreds of turtles to the sea to begin life
in the wild. The farm allows visitors to view many of the turtle
tanks, part of the hatchery, and has a wonderful gift shop. Be
advised that the US does not allow the importation of turtle products.
