Discover Your Ultimate Island Getaway at Seven Mile Beach



Seven Mile Beach & Governor's Harbor
Today I'll be showing you Seven Mile Beach in the Cayman Islands. This beach is one of many reasons why the Cayman Islands are thought of as the epitome of an exotic island getaway, and also the reason that Caribbean Travel + Life named it as one of their "Ultimate Beaches". 

Situated on the western shore of the Grand Cayman, this public beach is one of the most well known on the island and serves as home to many luxury resorts. The fact that it is a public beach is especially nice because you're able to walk or jog the length of it, no matter where you might be staying. 

As you can see, the beach is home to clear-blue waters and white coral sands. Visitors can relax in the shade and even pick grapes from the sea grape trees (which ripen around June and July). Aside from the amazing waterfront, there are also lots of public restaurants and bars dotted along the coastline. There are a variety of activities to partake in, from sand volleyball to snorkeling to para-sailing. You can also rent jet-skis if you like being out on the open water. This spot is sure to please all ages of visitors. 

Within Seven Mile Beach is another popular spot called Governor's Harbor. It is named as such because the governor's house sits right in front of the shore on Seven Mile Beach. This is a popular spot for families and tourists. You can find all the amenities of the Seven Mile Beach at the Governor's Harbor.

Attract Buyers with these Emerging Home Designs



Today I'm going to take a moment to keep you updated on kitchen design in 2014. I have a long list of things to keep in mind and I probably will not get through all of them, but there is something you should know before I tell you all of this.

Kitchens can be a huge selling point in a home (along with flooring and updated bathrooms), so it is critical to keep them updated. The return on a kitchen renovation can also be very high, so that is another reason why your kitchen should always be outfitted well. 


Some popular ideas right now are green or eco-friendly design, elements of nature, and cool, vibrant colors. It's also important not to go overboard with these ideas because and you don't want to stick yourself with an expensive and unfashionable design. Fashions come and go, so there needs to be a balance in your decisions. Sometimes it is best to look through the newer home design magazines and find something that matches your tastes. 

Other trends that are currently emerging are: dark & exotic finishes, and multiple layers of lighting. What I mean by 'multiple layers' is when you have more than just an overhead light in your kitchen. People want lights underneath cabinets, in drawers, in grates, and wherever else you can imagine putting them. The goal is to have light come from all angles so that shadows are nearly eliminated.

Smart, savvy appliances are becoming popular as well, which relates to the eco-friendly trend. Glass tiling is currently a popular selection for backsplashes right now, as well as alternative counter tops.

One trend that I like in particular that is found in a lot of contemporary homes are long, open shelves. It looks eclectic and artsy, and it can help to open up a room. These open cabinets can act as places to showcase glassware, and can also give your home a professional, restaurant-type feel. 

So, these are just a few of the trends that I wanted to share with you. If you'd like to know more or would like to speak with me about real estate in Cayman, then please contact me. You can call me at (345) 926-6784 or you can email me at michael.joseph@remax.ky
