Book Tibbett's Turn hotels

We've been to several islands in the Caribbean, but keep coming back to Cayman Brac. As busy Americans always with a to do list that's longer than we can complete, we like coming to a place where there's not much to do and it forces us to relax. No beaches means no crowds, there's no traffic, the snorkeling is great (including right from the house, once we found a path free of urchins), and the pool and shaded screened porch make lounging all day so comfortable. LaRonda's place was everything we expected and exactly what we needed. It's clearly a house that has been loved and lived in - a welcome change from some rentals that seem to be stripped down to the bare minimum. It's nice to have books and art that reflect the local place, plus all the little amenities that people who actually live there would want (from different indoor and outdoor seating options to a fully stocked kitchen). We booked a trip to Cayman Brac after going to St. John last year it was just too busy for our taste. Too much driving and too many people everywhere. Once we arrived at this house, we saw a handful of boats go by all week, we saw one person at a house a couple doors down when we went snorkeling, but otherwise total privacy and a very quiet retreat. We read a lot, listened to music, and enjoyed one another's company. We picked up food and got a couple drinks, but for us this is/was the perfect place to unwind.

Beautiful home on the ocean with all the privacy and quiet one could ask for. The property was neat and clean, Orane met us at the airport and helped us obtain groceries, etc, for our stay. We have already booked a stay for next year.

After confirming availability & booking this place for 3 nights, I received a message from the host stating the property wasn't available but luckily, she had another room, located on the same property, that was bigger, more spacious and we would still have all the same amenities. She made it sound like we were getting an upgrade. We were horrified when we arrived. The luxury villa shown in the photos turned out to be a run-down, dilapidated cabin. The porch was falling apart, the paint was peeling, all the window screens were torn and the place was full of mosquitos. The dated kitchen had a boarded up door, behind which was a room filled with junk. A pet door flap was built into the wall next to it and animals were coming in & out. There was a strong smell of cat urine throughout the house. The bathroom lacked the luxury tile and ambient lighting that was described. Instead it was located in a wood panelled closet. The door didn't even close, there was no toiletries as promised. No A/C. No Wifi password. We left the property within an hour and promptly messaged to host to request a refund. She did not respond until the following day, then refused to refund my $985 USD as she claimed I did not notify her within the required 12 hr, which is a total lie and can be verified by the timestamps on the messages.

Clean and roomy. Quiet area with great sea views, the photos are accurate. This our 5th trip to Cayman Brac, with more to come. Brac Beach House will always be our first choice if available 😃

Peaceful and Friendly
