We could not have been more pleased with the property and our stay. The house is beautiful and convenient to the island and beach. Sunsets are amazing!
We had a wonderful relaxing time at this well appointed property in Stake bay. We thank Geneta and Liesel for their attentiveness. With appreciation, Peggy and Nathaniel
Immaculate, beautiful, smartly designed home. Lots of little extras that make things convenient & comfortable. Extremely happy with the helpfulness & prompt communication of the owner & Liesel! We explored the island but found ourselves just wanting to enjoy the property. Although we weren't able to get in the water right there, we were quite content on the comfy lounge chairs under the umbrella, taking in the breeze, & there's places close by where we could enter the water to snorkel when the water was calm. Our stay went by much too quickly & we plan to return. Thank you Geneta for creating this piece of heaven!
Geneta has been fantastic! Very flexible and great communication.
The house felt like home immediately. Everything you need and more, clean, comfortable, nicely decorated!
The beach in front is rocky and requires water shoes. The advantage of that is the snorkelling is fabulous: shark, rays, turtles, fish of all kind, colors and shapes, different types corals. Just fabulous!
I highly recommend White sands hideaway! A 5+++ starts place.
The 2 weeks spent at White sands Hideaway felt like real holidays where the 3 of us felt very comfortable! It was a home away from home with an amazing view. Geneta was very accommodating and understanding about our messy trip to arrive in Cayman Brac. The house is ideally located, just a couple of steps from the sea where we had the chance to snorkel with turtles, rays (sting and eagle), shark, old sorts of fish with amazing colors. It is thoughtfully equipped with long chairs, table, water outside to rinse but most importantly huge windows to enjoy every day the sunset and waking up every morning to this amazing view. I cannot say enough about this house... just go and enjoy!
We absolutely loved our stay at White Sands Hideaway. Beautiful ocean views out so many windows, fully stocked kitchen, extremely comfortable, and the perfect location to enjoy the unspoiled nature of Cayman Brac. As soon as you step in you see the thoughtful touches you've placed in this home. The patio is fantastic and well shaded. The communication with Geneta ( owner) and Liesel (property manager) was beyond excellent. We were made to feel welcome from day one. Highly recommend this home to anyone who is looking for a peaceful, relaxing get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. What's not to love about a little island with not even one traffic light?
Nice home. Set up very nice and convenient. The kitchen is well stocked and everything was neat and clean. There is a dive site right outside the house.
This is a beautiful property - everything is very well maintained and the house is extremely well appointed and has everything that you will need for your vacation. Both Geneta and Leisel were great to deal with, and the check in process was very easy. My husband and I have been to the Brac several other times, but this was our first time staying on the North side of the island, and we really enjoyed the location over the busier end of the South side where we had stayed in the past. We would recommend this property if you're looking for something quiet and secluded (there are neighbors on one side, and a small dead-end road that runs between the property and the beach, but we didn't find that to be an issue during our stay). This was definitely one of our most relaxing vacations and we can't wait to return!
We had a great stay at this property. We were nervous that the reviews were too good to be true, but this place is even better than the photos! We would love to return in the future. The neighborhood is quiet, the view is lovely, it was very relaxing. And the owner hooked us up with a car rental, which was so convenient.
We felt like we were home away from home especially with everything being so clean and put together to say the least. The view that we had was priceless each morning we woke up and each evening as we were home so we above the owners and property manager give thumbs up and we might possibly make an offer to purchase this oasis one of these days but for now as long we’re going to the Brac we’ll be staying there!!
Everything about this rental was perfect. Upon arrival of the airport, we where met by the property manager and rental car people. They where perfect, very nice and would help in anyway. The house was extremely clean and everything worked great. Seeing the sunset and waking up with the view of the ocean was paradise! Would give the entire experience a 5 star review. We will be back!!
A beautiful home in a quiet, tranquil setting surrounded by natural beauty. A magical place.
Geneta the owner was so very communicative and assisted with anything we might need for the trip. Geneta helped us with car hire on the island, (a friendly and effortless experience!) and her representative on the island, Liesel, was just lovely and helpful, I can’t praise the whole experience enough.
Thankyou for letting us enjoy your home.
My fiance and I were looking for a relaxing getaway and this certainly fit the bill. A beautiful property with all the conveniences at our fingertips. We most enjoyed being able to hear the ocean waves wash up just feet away from our unit.
I've been visiting the island for 30 years, this is now my favorite rental. Absolutely perfect in every aspect,spacious, clean,well equipped, and the location is private,quiet with excellent diving/snorkeling 6o steps away and a minimal traffic road for long walks.
Good communication and well organized as well.
Thank you the use of your wonderful home.
Chances are the White Sands oceanfront rental in Cayman Brac is nearly everything you ever envisioned a dreamy tropical island getaway to be. It is pretty magnificent to pull up the blinds upon waking in the morning and see the vast expanse of the ocean right before you.
The house was clean, modern, and well stocked with towels and pretty much all the kitchen supplies necessary for whatever your cooking needs may be. And the a.c. kept the place perfectly comfortable without my having to make any adjustments.
All of that with the crown jewel being the great snorkeling just steps away and the overall secluded feel. And there was no issue with walking the beach or road to get to various other spots along the shore. Very conducive to exploring so take advantage.
A little heads up: a lot of the shoreline on the Brac seems to be made up of craggy coral so definitely wear your water booties and be ready for that but don't let it deter you. There is a public access beach on the south side of the island that has a long stretch of soft sand. Had it all to myself the day I went. Perfect.
And I can't forget to mention the phenomenal stars display.
The only drawback was there were a couple nights where my neighbor had his tunes cranked up but I let it go and it didn't turn into a big issue.
I enjoyed my stay immensely.
We are divers. Shore dived for the first time. White Sands is modern, clean and safe. Beach is great
Geneta helped us through the Cayman Portal process and quarantine ...excellent service. Border Services delivered a case of beer to us while in quarantine! Cayman Brac is very safe. Diving with Brac Shack was excellent. Islanders were very friendly. We were revisiting after 20 years and love the peaceful nature of the island, an oasis in the middle of a pandemic. Enjoyed Mr. Foot's art, Soleil d'Or's farm and fine dining and Pioneer Bakery's cinnamon buns!
The home is facing the its own white sand beach where you can sit and watch the sunset with a glass of your preferred libation. Clean and well appointed kitchen and laundry with RO water filtration system and dishwasher. All the comforts of home!!
Loved this rental, plan to return for sure. Awesome view.

About the host
Hosted by Geneta and Bill Salviano
For the past 3 years, we have both dreamt of this beautiful property, and having a background in construction we’ve designed this home with the best features in mind. We have been married over 38 years and currently reside in Henderson, NV. We enjoy Cayman Brac because of the laid back feel you get while you’re there, the friendly people and the beautiful water.
Why they chose this property
We chose to buy on The Brac because it is a safe, low-key island. We were looking for a place to relax and leave the hustle and bustle behind. We decided to build a house and fell in love with this property because of the views.
What makes this property unique
We had the house built with the views in mind. There is an ocean view from the living room, kitchen, and master bedroom. The wrap around porch/patio is a great place for watching the sunset.
