Caribbean MLSReal Estate

The Great House Penthouse, Seven Mile Beach, Grand Cayman

Available on request

The brief

The reason to consider it.

The finest beachfront penthouse currently available in the Cayman Islands. Residence 21 is the crown jewel of The Great House — a two-storey penthouse positioned at the building’s centre, commanding 60 linear feet of prime Seven Mile Beach frontage and sweeping views of the Caribbean Sea from virtually every room. Currently in the final stages of a complete gut renovation, the residence has been reimagined for contemporary living while retaining the extraordinary scale and presence that defines it. A glass-walled staircase draws the eye upward through soaring vaulted ceilings, flooding the interior with light and anchoring the home’s striking sense of volume.

The floor plan is generous and thoughtfully conceived. On the main level, a signature mahogany front door opens into a grand entry and through to the great room — an ideal setting for both intimate evenings and larger gatherings. A newly renovated chef’s kitchen, formal dining room, spacious laundry, exceptional storage, and a climate-controlled wine room complete the first floor, alongside a master wing with a six-piece bath suite — including a freestanding soaking tub and walk-in shower — and a main floor guest bedroom with ensuite bath. Upstairs, a sprawling secondary living space leads to two further guest suites, each with private ensuite baths, and two air-conditioned storage rooms. The private west-facing balcony delivers front-row seats to Grand Cayman’s most celebrated sunsets.

The Great House sits on 3.5 acres with just twenty-six residences across approximately 420 feet of powder-white sand — one of the lowest density beachfront developments on the island. A private garage is included.

Properties at The Great House rarely come to market, and a residence of this calibre is rarer still. Offered partially furnished, it presents the discerning buyer with the opportunity to put their own stamp on one of the finest homes the island has to offer. This is, quite simply, an exceptional opportunity.

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
