Welcome to Gardens of the Kai, a seaside enclave of two-story villas, nestled on a white sandy beach with mesmerizing sunset views.

Villa #6 is the closest home to the water and has undergone a complete makeover both inside and out. A large, communal freshwater pool with sundeck and cabana sits just behind the home. Free off-street parking is also just 100 feet from the front door. 

The lower level living areas and kitchen open to a generously sized screened lanai overlooking the waterfront. Furnished with an alfresco dining table the lanai faces westward for excellent sunset dinners! The living area is furnished with comfy sofa seating and a large SmartTV with cable programming. 

The remodeled kitchen features modern appliances and everything you need to prepare a home-cooked meal. Cookware, dishware, glassware, and utensils are all included. A charcoal grill is also provided for beachfront cookouts.

The home's 3 bedroom suites are split across two levels with two upstairs and one downstairs offering privacy for couples and large families. The upper-level suites enjoy walkout access to a private screened balcony with elevated ocean views.

Sleeping Arrangements
(Licensed for 8 Guests; 6 Adults max.)

  • Bedroom 1: lower-level, king bed, oceanfront, SmartTV, ensuite with shower.
  • Bedroom 2: primary suite, upper-level, king bed, oceanfront, private screened balcony, ensuite with dual vanity, large double shower with water wand and bench.
  • Bedroom 3: upper-level, two queen beds, oceanfront, private screened balcony, ensuite with shower.

The owner provides one single kayak for guest use. Additional kayaks and paddleboards are available for discounted rental throughout your stay if rented prior to your arrival date. Access to our private fitness center is also included along with complimentary snorkel gear for check-out. 

The blue water in front of the villa is shallow with a soft bottom. Recreational swimming and snorkeling are best enjoyed at the Rum Point Club, just a 10-minute walk north. There you will find watersports from kayak and jet ski rentals to guided dives. There's also a restaurant serving lunch and dinner, plus an open-air beach bar, and a gift shop.

The Kaibo is another popular spot with a beach bar, two restaurants, a marina, and a coffee shop all conveniently located across the street! Stingray City excursions and ferry service to Seven Mile Beach depart from the Kaibo marina.

Combined with its central location on the Cayman Kai peninsula, walkable to water activities, family-friendly restaurants, and laid-back beach bars, this island getaway will surely become a guest favorite.

Come and experience easy island living in beautiful Cayman Kai!

Beach Notes

The beach behind the Gardens of the Kai is a white-sand, barefoot beach and there is lots of it for privacy and sunbathing.

The beach-front homes in Cayman Kai offer generaly calm water for wading, beaching a rental boat, or just safe shallow water swimming close to the shoreline for little children. The water off the beach is shallow and has a softer bottom and there is no reef here to support fish life...but we do see the occasional turtle, eagle ray, or tarpon swim by in the shallows! Most guests walk/drive to Rum Point for barefoot, sandy bottom swimming.

Another benefit is that we rarely get any seaweed on the beach so the beaches stay cleaner than the oceanfront beaches.

The big draw to this area is the proximity to the Rum Point Club, a public beach club within a short walk that offers a fantastic barefoot beach, water sports, a restaurant and bar, a gift shop, and pick-up beach volleyball games. Also nearby is the Kaibo, a beachfront restaurant, bar, coffee shop, and marina.

Lastly, about 20 minutes east there are 2 large resorts--Morritt's and The Reef--that offer manicured beaches, plus restaurants, a grocery store, plus wine & spirits store. These two resorts also offer scuba, and snorkel trips, jet ski rentals, windsurfing, kiteboarding, oceanfront pools, and bar service.

General Grand Cayman Beach Notes

All beaches in Grand Cayman are technically public since the Crown owns up to the high water mark.

The shoreline quality behind your property may vary slightly from the images on our website due to shifting tides and weather patterns. The next-door beach is also always available for your use.

Ocean Debris & Sargassum Seaweed

Beaches in Grand Cayman may also experience floating ocean debris and sargassum weed seasonally. This location is VERY rarely affected.

Beautiful, Comfortable, and Everything We Needed


         
Review by Lindsay on 11/04/2024
5 out of 5
We loved our stay, the photos and listing were extremely accurate! The home is beautiful, comfortable, and had everything we needed. I still cannot get over the views!!! The rental company had some free amenities available (box fans, snorkel gear, Keurig coffee maker) which were a nice bonus! We really enjoyed the snorkel gear and saw lots of creatures right in the water near the house! I wrongly assumed there would be a kayak at the house based on other reviews I had read, and that was not the case. We purposely chose to stay out on Cayman Kai to be away from the touristy/busy areas around Georgetown, and we were very glad we did! We were there in the off-season, and had the whole beach and pool to ourselves. However - this area is quite remote and far from the main part of Cayman. If you’re looking for quiet and lovely beaches, you’ll love it, but you definitely have to rent a car and plan time for driving to see the island.

Lovely Property!

Gardens of the Kai is a lovely property, and villa #6 did not disappoint. It’s located in rum point, away from seven mile beach and west end, so it’s quite pristine and beautiful. The villa was spotless, with a beach that felt like it was our own private beach, with shallow, calm waters. The house was very well stocked and Grand Cayman Villas and Condos were exceptionally well Organized and communicative. They sent us a number of helpful instructions and guidelines well in advance of our arrival and had several local sightseeing tips (the charter to stingray city was the highlight!) Would highly recommend this villa if you’re looking for something a bit more offbeat, secluded, and incredibly spacious.

Strongly Recommend this Villa/Location

We just finished a 6 night stay at the Gardens of the Kai #6 villa. The place was clean and spotless when we arrived and was well stocked with everything to make our stay comfortable. It looks just like the pictures if not better in person. The beach was calm and very private with lots of areas to snorkel and explore in a kayak. The location is close to Rum Point, star fish point and the bioluminescent bay. There are a few good restaurants close by but having a car is a must. We spent a lot of time exploring the surrounding areas. Overall we loved our time here and would strongly recommend this villa/location to anyone wanting a quiet and private place away from the hustle and bustle of 7 mile beach.

Idyllic, Highly Recommend

This was our 2nd trip to Grand Cayman - we first stayed at a resort on 7 mile beach. This time we wanted something a little quieter with a little more room and this was perfect. We (husband/wife/2 teens) stayed for a week in late June 2024. We loved being able to walk out of the door and directly down to the beach where we snorkeled, kayaked, and paddle boarded (we supplemented the included kayak with additional rentals). Location - While it\'s not the middle of things like SMB, there are local restaurants that were great, plus we stocked up from the larger grocery stores and then supplemented with the local smaller market. While it\'s a bit of a hike from SMB and Georgetown, the tradeoff of relative quiet & chill vibe was much worth the longer drive. We still took trips to other parts of the island, but it was great to come back & watch some of the most amazing sunsets. The Villa - The villa is beautiful - we found it clean and comfortable. Plenty of room for a family of 4 to spread out. The Beach - it\'s in sort of a cove, and we found we could kayak and paddle board pretty far out and still feel comfortable. Snorkeling we saw a variety of small fish, a few crabs, and even a lobster. The checkin process was smooth and the few things we needed we emailed the caretaker and got a reasonably quick response. We loved the area, the villa, and our trip. Highly recommend.

Peaceful and Quiet

We loved our stay at the Gardens of Kai #6. It was even better than we thought it would be. The home was very nice and clean. It had everything we could need. The beach was right off the front steps and it was so peaceful and quiet. It was as if we had our own private beach for 4 days. Highly recommend this home.

Quiet side of the island!

We loved our stay at Rum Point! We were very comfortable at Gardens of the Kai #6. The villa is very nice, and because we were there before peak season, we basically had the beach to ourselves! It is a bit of a drive to the other side of the island (Georgetown and West End), but totally worth it to be away from the crowds on the quiet side of the island!

Fabulous

This is a beautiful part of the island on a nice calmer bay. The place is right on the water and the views are even better than the pics. The condo is very well furnished and was very comfortable for our family of 5 adults. We were extremely satisfied and loved being in close proximity to Cayman Kai, Rum Point, and Starfish point. This is a fantastic option for those wanting to be off the beaten path of Seven Mile Beach. We would definitely recommend this place and would love to come back!  

Wonderful beach condo

We had a wonderful visit! The house was lovely and fit our needs perfectly for a family of 4 (2 teenagers). House and view was exactly as the photos depicted. We enjoyed the kayaks and snorkeling daily. Dined at Kaibo and Rum Point multiple times. Starfish point and Bioluminescent Bay were great attractions. But overall most enjoyed the peacefulness of the house and location! Richard was great to work with! Looking forward to returning!  

Amazing Place for 1st Visit to Cayman

Great Villa in a Nice Location


         
Review by Gina on 07/04/2023

The house was perfect for our family of 7. It was clean, nicely furnished and in the best location. We had the most wonderful time watching sunsets out front, relaxing and wishing we stayed longer than 6 days. All of us including children ages 5 and 9 used the kayaks that were available, swam in the pool by ourselves and enjoyed the beautiful beach right out front of the house. The house is walking distance to the most beautiful sunrises, Kaibo Restaurant and the Ferry to Camana bay/7 mile beach. We will recommend the “Beach Pad” to our friends and family. Thank you Richard for being so prompt in responding to our texts and emails.  

A beautiful house in a fabulous location!

Great place to stay, very well furnished. Loved the kayaks and calm waters. Weather was nice and views were fantastic. Will definitely rent again in the near future.

Can't say much more than "Wonderful!"

From the moment we booked until leaving the Caymans to head home, this property worked perfectly. Richard is excellent with communications, the home is beautiful, and the location couldn't be better for the 8 of us. The home was spacious, VERY well appointed, well thought out, and with beautiful views to accompany it. Richard has, I believe, thought of everything a guest in the Cayman Islands might need. I can't say enough good things and we'll be staying at the Beach Pad again next time we come back.  

Wonderful vacation

Perfect location right on the beach. Would come back here again for sure!! We snorkeled and used the kayaks from the beach every day.  

Wow ! Beautiful location and place


         
Review by Kim on 03/21/2023

We wanted a quiet away from all the cruise boat crowds to relax and the Beachpad didn’t disappoint on any aspects. The location is just place to stay for a quiet relaxing time inside and out, yet close enough to walk (or kayak) to a few places to visit- Starfish point, Rum Point, and Bioluminescent Bay. The place was very clean and had plenty of towels and seats for everyone inside and outside on the beach. The kitchen is well stocked and had everything we needed to cook and make dinners for our group of five. We brought our own snorkel gear and were able to see the local huge lobster that hangs out near the tubes in the swimming area right in front. We also used the kayaks just about every night to paddle out and watch the sunsets from the water, which our son loved doing. It was truly the best view and location for a quiet place to stay and relax and we would love to come back and stay again.

Five stars is not enough for the 'Beach Pad'. It was clean, spacious and well appropriated for 3 couples wanting to enjoy the relaxing side of the island. I cannot imagine a more perfect beach or a bay to Paddle Board, Kayak or Snorkel in. The 'locals' in the community are immediately welcoming and genuinely interested in helping you as best they can. We would suggest Tukka's restaurant on the East End, the Kaibo Beach Club luau (Tuesday night) and an excursion to Stingray City. We are already discussing when to return. (Shout out to MaryBeth for being so welcoming).  

I would stay here again and again and again

Short summary: Absolutely incredible, just book it! This was not our first time to the island but it was indeed our most favorite thanks to the pristine home, amenities, and location. I feel incredibly lucky that we happened upon this listing and it was available for our week long stay. The house was very well appointed from furniture to the quality of the bed linens and towels; it’s just beautiful! Everything we could need had already been thought of and made available. The proximity to the beach and water (right outside the porch) simply cannot be beat. If you are a water lover (swimming, snorkeling, kayaking) you most definitely want to be here. Every morning, there were plenty of starfish and other creatures to be found (stingrays, conch, a myriad of fish, crab, lobster, and even a turtle one morning!) The provided kayaks were used every single day of our stay and so appreciated. There are plenty of beach towels in the house and chairs outside for all. The sunsets every evening followed by the most magnificent and clear skies made it all the more serene and paradise-like. On top of it all, Richard’s communication was very impressive from booking through the end of our stay which is something I greatly appreciated. I’ve already indicated to him that we will be back. It’s truly a special place and I highly recommend staying here!  

Paradise found!!

This property was such a great location for us. It looked just like the pictures in the listing. It was very clean, updated, and had everything we needed. Very spacious. What I really liked was the location. It was private and quiet. We used the kayaks everyday and snorkeled right in front of the villa. Many fish and starfish to see. We walked to starfish point as well as some local restaurants. We would definitely stay here again. Kids loved it.  

Exceptional!

The condo was gorgeous and well appointed. We had a power issue on arrival, however Richard was very responsive and the problem was resolved.
