About this property

Cayman Kai - U-Kai-Lele2 Bed/ 2 Bath Beach Front Condo

"U-Kai-lele" is a 2nd floor 2bed/2bath, sleeps 6. Beachfront in Cayman kai. Screened in patio centrally located on complex with best views of the beach. Minutes to Rum Point. Kaibo Yacht Club Bar & Restuarant with reasonably priced food beachside or a fine dining experience on the upstairs balcony. Quiet complex for escaping it all. We recently bought this place after wanting a spot on this side of the island for 20 years. This is where the affluent Caymanians go to escape. This is also our vacation home, so extra care has been given to make this a great, comfortable, hassle free experience for every member of the family. We like to go up on weekends, watch the kids play in the pool and on the beach from our balcony. In the evenings we sit out watching the Caribbean Sunsets, while blending margaritas, and BBQing fresh fish, kids are inside playing games, or watching DVD's/cable. Steps to easy dining, drinks, and watersports. Extremely safe and friendly environment for everyone. Our young teenage girls walk the beach and go to lunch hassle free.

Peaceful and beautiful

The Ukulele B18 was a comfortable and well equipped condo. The view is beautiful from the screened porch. Maybe getting near the end of the king mattress life but not awful. We had an issue with the air con unit and Mabel was very responsive and was serviced the next morning. Very happy with her communication and quick response. GPS basically told us we were at our location at Rum Point. It was frustrating. I remembered the Kaibo marina and restaurant was next door so we entered that into the GPS and found it right away. We really enjoyed snorkeling excursions with Ocean Frontiers on the East end, snorkeling off shore at Rum Point, Cayman Kai beach and Eden Rock. Restaurant recommendations away from Cayman Kai-Tukka’s, Czech Inn Grill and Over the Edge, all within 30 or less drive. All in all a very relaxing great experience! Would absolutely rent again.

Great Family Vacation

The location was perfect for our family with small kids and grandparents. The ease of having the beach and pool/hottub in our "backyard" was perfect. We walked, kayaked, and drove to Starfish Point on various occasions depending who was joining. Being away from the busier part of the island was a big bonus for us. We rented a car to be able to drive to some attractions we wanted to hit, like the Turtle Center. And took the ferry once to enjoy a noat ride to the other side. The condo was well-stocked with necessities. Overall it was great!

Great Home Base

We stayed at this property for a week at the end of May/into the beginning of June. One of the most important things for us is communication from the owner prior to, and if needed, during our stay. Mabel gets 5 stars for this! We rented a car and drove somewhere each day, so we truly used the condo as our home base. We spent very little time at its beach or at the pool. The only cons were that the condo is a bit dated (but it was nicely stocked) and the water right outside the condo was filled with hundreds of upside down jelly fish. Pros- Great location for exploring the island (we rented a car). The only area more than 30 mins away is Seven Mile Beach. Kaibo Yacht Club is right next door. We found excursions that pick up from their dock, so we literally walked 2 mins for pick up. Also, if you want a convenient meal, their beach club is also a 2 min walk from your front door. The traffic on this side of the island is MUCH less than the Seven Mile Beach area. In all our exploring of the North Side and East End, we never encountered any traffic issues. The condo is also a super short drive to Rum Point which is a great place to eat, snorkel and watch the sunset from. Also close is Bioluminescent Bay and the Crystal Caves. This was our first trip to Grand Cayman and we all loved NOT being on Seven Mile Beach. There are just too many places to explore and things to see to be tied to one area.If you are an adventurous vacationer, this is a great area for you to consider.

Paradise!

My niece and I stayed at this property for 10 days, and it was delightful. It was even better than advertised. It has a view of the pool and the beach (including the hammocks!). We sat for hours on comfy chairs on the screened balcony. The condo itself was extremely well stocked with supplies, which added to the comfort of our stay. It is an out of the way location, which was perfect for us. We snorkeled in the water in front of the condo and regularly walked to Starfish Point to watch the sunset. A fantastic stay!

First time to Cayman and really enjoyed it. This is a great place to escape the cold and relax. We liked this quite side of the island away from the crowds and big resorts. The unit had everything we needed including basic seasonings. The host was very responsive to all our questions. Would definitely go back again!

great condo and even better host (December 2022)

This condo had everything we needed for a fun week! Overlooking the pool and beach, the spacious condo came equipped with paddleboard/kayak/bikes and lots of beach toys/paddleball. It also had everything we needed indoors like towels, kitchen supplies, games/dvds. The in-unit washer/dryer was helpful for our active family too. Being able to walk next door to Kaibo's and Kaibo coffee & Starfish Point was ideal! Best of all was our wonderful host who patiently answered lots of questions pre-arrival, helped recommend local resources for rental car/activities and left us a Christmas tree surprise for our Holiday stay!

Kaibo Ukailele

It was a great week at Kaibo Ukailele. The unit was clean, well maintained, decorated nicely and had everything that our family needed. It was well equipped and had enough toys (bikes, kayak’s, paddle board) to keep our three teenagers busy. The property and pool area are well maintained and the bay area is great for enjoying water sports or just for relaxing. The unit and property are highly recommended!

We loved our stay here! It’s was very clean, was stocked with plenty of extras that we made use of, and the location was perfect. Didn’t feel touristy or crowded. Definitely rent a car if you plan activities/excursions. We hope to plan another trip to the Caymans in the future and wouldn’t look anywhere else for accommodations.

Wonderful stay in well equipped condo.

Beautiful, relaxing location away from the crowds. Really enjoyed our stay. The condo was tastefully furnished with everything you needed and more. Very clean and comfortable. Nice to sit on screened in porch and have breakfast. Loved the community pool and hot tub. Grounds well maintained. Really enjoyed use of the kayak and paddle board that the homeowner provided along with the grill. Hope to get to use the bikes in the next visit. Thanks for such a comfortable stay in your condo. We hope to be back. Great vacation.

Great place on the quiet side!

We had a wonderful stay at Ukailele! The condo has everything you need and more, including a HUGE walk in closet! Lots of towels, beach toys if you have kids, and even a bunch of sunglasses to choose from... We didn't cook much but if we did it's all there. Sunday brunch at the Lighthouse and Valentines dinner at Tukka were our culinary highlights. We used the kayak (could use a bit of care) and I used the paddleboard for the 1st time ever. The beach was great, we walked it several times each day, we swam and looked for starfish and other creatures. Rum point is always amazing and we snorkeled several times around the area, with and without a guide. We had a coffee and a treat every morning from next door (Kaibo Espresso) and went to the Tuesday night BBQ at Kaibo, which I highly recommend. We spent lots of time on the porch, watching the kids in the pool (not ours, but what fun!). Our bed was super comfortable and we slept great. I loved the door locking system, even tho we felt very safe and didn't always use it. Can't wait to come again and stay longer.!!

Lovely condo and location

I rented this condo because it was off the beaten path. And it is. It was exactly what I wanted. Unfortunately for me I invited the rest of my family. I spent my entire vacation driving all over the island. So if you’re family is going to want to do a million things stay on 7-mike beach. But if you want a quiet corner of the Caribbean with a marina, scuba diving, and other water sports. This place is great. Silver Thatch water sports is a great dive company which pick you up on the public dock next door. The Kaibo Yatch club has a good restaurant and coffee shop. Star fish point, rum point, and the bioluminescent bay are all a short bike ride away.
