About this property

The Kai Life: Waterfront Home on Bio Bay w/Pool & Dock + Short Walk to Rum Point Beach

***Property Overview***
**Villa Being Renovated for 2025! Many Improvements Coming Soon--see below for details! New Pictures Upon Completion.**

*Planned Improvements for 2025 include: Each bedroom will now be primary suites w/ a king bed; both renovated ensuite bathrooms will include walk-in showers with new rain shower heads, vanities, lighting, and mirrors; new white cabinetry, appliances, and wine refrigerator in kitchen; built-in dining room and living room; new flooring and interior doors; villa improvements will be white in color and modern in style.*

The Kai Life is a newly renovated villa and sits directly between the island's Bioluminescent Bay and the beautiful Rum Point Club. Walk across the street to restaurants, a beach bar, watersports, and a wonderful barefoot swimming beach.

The Island Houses are a resort neighborhood of 18 units at the top of Bio Bay, each with its own 2-story screened lanai.

All units share a large swimming pool with a sundeck. This is resort living, but with fewer footprints and more privacy.

The Kai Life is spacious and airy with elegant, comfortable furnishings. The property includes an upgraded fiber internet connection, perfect for remote working professionals.

The ground floor is open concept and includes a living and dining area, a fully equipped kitchen with new appliances, a guest powder room, a reading nook with a sleeper sofa, and a laundry room with a full-sized washer and dryer.

Our guests tend to spend many hours outside in the lanai. A private charcoal grill and outdoor shower are behind the lanai.

Balconies from each second-floor bedroom open to the screened lanai to allow the house to be opened up during the cooler winter months. Screened windows on the front also allow a breeze to flow through the house when air-conditioning is not needed.

-- Primary Suite: upper-level, waterfront, king bed, private screened balcony, ensuite bath with walk-in shower.
-- 2nd Primary Suite: upper-level, waterfront, king bed, private screened balcony, ensuite bath with walk-in shower.

Access to amazing natural surroundings is at your back door, overlooking popular Bioluminescent Bay. This enchanting natural wonder comes alive at night with sparkling aquatic life that can be enjoyed while kayaking at night, or you can hire one of the local tour companies for a guided tour.

Our guests also easily walk to the Kaibo Marina and restaurants for additional watersports, dining options, a coffee shop, and to catch the Cayman Ferry over to Camana Bay and Seven Mile Beach.

***Villa Cleaning & Sanitation***
All villas are cleaned and sanitized prior to each guest's arrival. We also ask our owners to provide a starter supply of extra cleaning products. Additional housekeeping services can be purchased after booking in 3-hour time blocks. Scheduling may be coordinated with your property manager upon arrival.

***Beach Notes***
All beaches in Grand Cayman are technically public since the Crown owns up to the high watermark. Be advised, the beach or water entry behind your property may vary slightly from the images displayed due to shifting weather and tide patterns. The next-door beach is also always available for your use. We advise guests to wear foot protection (pool socks or aqua shoes) when entering the ocean to avoid injury on coral heads, ironshore, or rocks.

***Ocean Debris & Sargassum Seaweed***
Beaches in Grand Cayman may also experience floating ocean debris and sargassum weed seasonally. Sargassum is a generally harmless floating seaweed that has increased in frequency in recent years. This is VERY RARE for homes along the Cayman Kai Cove.

Perfect place to stay!

It was amazing. Just 2 minutes from our screened in porch to the private beach, pool, restaurant and bar on premises. We loved Rum Point. Very quite. This place has kayaks, umbrella, snorkels and cold air!! Lots of towels with washer and dryer provided. We even cooked our on the grill provided one night. We explored Seven Mile Beach and liked it but loved where we stayed!! We will come back again and stay here.
