The brief

The reason to consider it.

Welcome to Escapist, a rare double-lot compound on Waterford Quay. This award-winning designed home offers a level of space, privacy, and exclusivity unmatched in Crystal Harbour. Spanning over 7,200 sq. ft., the six-bedroom residence is a masterpiece of design and functionality.

From the moment you enter, you are met with soaring double-height, floor-to-ceiling glass that fills the home with natural light and opens directly to canal views. The open-plan living and dining areas flow seamlessly from here, making the home ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Thoughtfully designed, the home also offers a separate guest wing and staff quarters, along with dedicated spaces for wellness, work, and relaxation.

Every detail has been meticulously crafted, from the Italian-made kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances to the Delta Light lighting that bathes the entire home in a warm, inviting glow. Built for island living, the home is equipped with solar power, hurricane-rated windows and doors, and comprehensive security.

Step outside into your own private oasis, where a 100’ dock awaits on the canal front, complete with an integrated jet ski floating dock. Entertain effortlessly in the outdoor kitchen with its gas BBQ and pizza oven, all surrounded by pristine, mature landscaping. A 3-car garage completes the property.

The adjoining lot is what sets Escapist apart. It offers greater privacy, generous space, and future flexibility, whether you preserve it as a private garden or expand the estate. Homes offering a compound layout like this are exceptionally rare in Cayman.

Escapist offers the perfect blend of privacy, space, and luxury. This is more than a home; it is a canal-front estate and a statement of refined living.

What people say about Cayman Islands

Sources agree that buying in Grand Cayman is tax-light but not cheap to live with.

  • Concern Cayman is among the most expensive places to live; imports and housing drive it
  • Positive No annual property, capital gains or inheritance tax; one-time stamp duty is the main purchase cost (7.5%, 10% above CI$2m from 2026)
  • Mixed Permanent residency by property needs CI$2m of developed real estate and is quota-limited; a cheaper 25-year certificate carries no right to work
  • Mixed Strata fees are a material carrying cost, higher on Seven Mile Beach
