Climbing on Cayman Brac

Rock Climbing on an unspoiled tropical island

Lodging (Under New Ownership) March 26, 2024

Bluff View, aka the Climbers’ House

Bluff View has been the “official” basecamp for climbers visiting Cayman Brac since the 1990s and we are pleased to continue the tradition of providing very simple and economical accommodations for visitors to the island. Please see below for our calendar below of availability.

 

 

Bluff View is located on the south side of the island, towards the east end. This is the quiet and sparsely populated end of the island, far from the noise of the airport and what little traffic there is. Bluff View is up against the bluff, nestled between coconut palms, banyan trees, agave, and cacti. The house is approximately 100 yards from the shoreline and the shore is accessible via a path across the street through vacant lots. The sound of the waves and palm fronds in the wind are the perfect recipe for relaxation and recovery.

 

Tired happy climbers, drinks in hand, on the porch at the end of the day.

The Bluff View property consists of two independent and nearly identical apartments: an upstairs unit and a downstairs unit. Each unit consists of a private full bath, 1 bedroom with a queen bed, and an open concept kitchen/dining/living room area. The kitchen is fully stocked with a full-size fridge, electric range, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, blender, and a full suite of common kitchen utensils and cookware. Bedroom and bath linens are provided. Each apartment has a covered open-air porch. An outdoor shower and a new washer and dryer in a small shed are shared.

On-site coconut trees provide fresh coconuts! There is presently no air conditioning at Bluff View. Each bedroom has a ceiling fan and the apartments come with other fans to use as needed to help to keep the temps comfortable. There is presently no WiFi at the house and cell phone reception is very limited inside the house as the bluff blocks part of the signal but you can walk across the to the telephone pole for good service (may get a bar or 2 of 3G or LTE coverage on the porch or in the front yard.)

 

So bring your swimsuit, toothbrush, snorkel, scuba, a few books, and climbing gear and get ready to unplug for a truly relaxing vacation on a quiet and secluded friendly tropical island.
