Inside Lacovia's Last Two-Story Residence in Grand Cayman

Lucía Torres · 2026-10-19

Grand Cayman's Lacovia has been a fixture on Seven Mile Beach since the 1980s. Now it's getting a second act. Rebuilt by Bronte Development with the original owners still on board, the property has reemerged as a contemporary luxury residential development with new architecture and a full suite of services. And here's the part that matters if you've been watching this stretch of coastline: of the seven residences still available, Lacovia S1B is the only two-story, ground-floor home left on the market. ### A Scandinavian Take on Beachfront Living The overall design comes from Stockholm-based OOAK Architects, and they've brought a sense of modern Scandinavian restraint to a place that could easily get away with showing off. Floor-to-ceiling glass frames the turquoise water, while deep, private terraces turn the outdoors into a genuine living space, ideal for entertaining or just watching the light change over the ocean. ### What's Inside Residence S1B The 7,000-square-foot first-floor residence, represented by The Agency Cayman Islands' Fleur Coleman and Stefan Cohen, is built for easy, unhurried living: - 5 bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms, including an ocean-view primary suite with real privacy - Lofty 10-foot ceilings and expansive windows that pull in abundant natural light - Spacious living areas that blend indoor and outdoor realms without a hard line between them - Room for family and friends to stay together in comfort and style According to Lacovia's own materials, life at the residences is meant to be "seamless, attentive and entirely your own," whether owners live there year-round or visit seasonally. ### The Market Is Already Paying Attention International interest isn't theoretical. The Agency Cayman Islands recently sold two Lacovia penthouses, one at $18 million and the other at $15.5 million, to buyers from North America, Europe, and beyond. > "Today's luxury buyers want a home that comes with real services—and prime Seven Mile Beach property is in short supply," Fleur explained. "Not to mention the range of unparalleled owner amenities that adds to the exclusivity of this location, including 24/7 dedicated concierge services and security, a state-of-the-art fitness studio, lush tropical gardens, and infinity edge pools overlooking the ocean." That combination of scarcity and service is a big part of the draw. Beachfront land on Seven Mile Beach isn't making more of itself, and buyers at this level increasingly expect a home that functions like a well-run private club. ### Beyond the Property Line Outside Lacovia, Grand Cayman does a lot of the work on its own. The island pairs a vibrant cultural scene with award-winning restaurants and one of the most iconic beaches in the world. The airport sits just 15 minutes from the property, serves 11 airlines, and includes a dedicated private jet terminal—a detail that matters more than you'd think for seasonal owners. Grand Cayman is consistently listed as one of the Caribbean's safest and most beautiful destinations, and it keeps attracting international luxury buyers who want a refined yet laid-back way of life. Not a bad combination, and not an easy one to find. To learn more about Lacovia Residence S1B, contact The Agency Cayman Islands' Fleur Coleman or Stefan Cohen.
