"Sandy Bottom" - 2 Bedroom Villa On The Beach At Gardens Of The Kai#5

The Gardens of the Kai is a small group of privately owned stand alone houses situated in the quiet, pristine area of Cayman Kai - a very private, exclusive part of beautiful Grand Cayman. The houses are set directly on the white sand beach, with gorgeous sunset views, and a fresh water pool, all in tropical landscaped gardens.
A very short walk from Gardens of the Kai you will find Kaibo - a rustic Caribbean Beach Bar/Restaurant surrounded by coconut palms. Here you will experience part of the real Cayman. With its downstairs thatched bar and upstairs white tablecloth formal dining, Kaibo defines both barefoot escapism and romantic dining. Caribbean cocktails or cold local beer together with local fish, salads, wraps and entrées hot off the grill while overlooking the sea makes your dining experience unforgettable.
For further sea adventures and dining options, a short drive or easy 5 minute bike ride away along the sandy road is Rum Point, with its Red Sail watersport outlet, upscale restaurant and famous wreck bar. For active travelers we offer two kayaks and two bikes. Just a short walk along the beach is “Robinson Crusoe” Starfish Point.
Gardens of the Kai beach is reef protected, and tranquil with gently lapping waves. No need to reserve a beach chair here. Just pick out your favorite palm and relax while listening to bird song and enjoying a gentle breeze.
Gardens of The Kai #5 offers single family privacy where you can fully enjoy your paradise vacation. The house has a living and dining area open to a screened terrace designed for outdoor living, casual dining and walk out to the beach. There is a fully equipped kitchen including a wine cooler, Keurig coffee machine, and comfortable tropical furnishings. In addition to the living/dining area and kitchen, the ground floor has a bedroom with a queen bed and a single bed and a bathroom. The entire upstairs is a spacious master suite with king bed, large closets & private balcony overlooking the turquoise Caribbean sea. Washer/dryer, BBQ, cable TV, CD/DVD, blue ray DVD, kayak, bikes, books, games, WiFi internet, and HP printer are all provided. Non smoking unit.
During your stay at this villa, you're just a quick walk from North Sound. Enjoy features like concierge services and laundry facilities. A kitchen and a washer/dryer are available in the villa.

Perfect spot to stay away from the crowds

The island house was absolutely perfect. Everything from check in to check out was smooth. We enjoyed kayaking, seeing the big starfish right off the beach, the friendly cats and chickens, the stingray excursion, the turtle center, the caves, and much more! The house was perfect for our family and very accommodating. Definitely happy we stayed on this side of the island. Thank you for letting our family enjoy a small piece of your world.

Wow!! So spectacular and amazingly relaxing!

Gardens of the Kai #5 was spectacular!! It was truly picturesque! The house was beautiful: clean, updated, well stocked in the kitchen and bathrooms. The beach out in front of the house was the best along the coast - clear, not much sea grass (which stings if you get into it), and full of starfish. The kayaks were a blast as was the bike. The location was perfect for walking to Kaibo Beach Marina and Restaurant (basically across the street), walking to Starfish Point (about 13 minutes leisurely on the beach), and about 20-25 minutes walking to Rum Point (although it is a hot walk). Bioluminescent Bay is right there too - a must see!! We basically had the beach to ourselves - so quiet and relaxing and peaceful. Would highly recommend!!

Slice of Paradise

We had an amazing stay at "Sandy Bottom" in early April! The villa was really clean, beautifully furnished and situated in a little spot of paradise! The views from the villa are so gorgeous of the beach and ocean. The beach is there as soon as you walk out the door with soft white sand. We pretty much had the beach to ourselves while we were there and it was the perfect quiet, relaxing getaway we needed. The weather was perfect and the ocean and pool water was warm. We really enjoyed the kayaks and saw so many starfish in the area.We traveled to the seven mile area a few times for dinner and our whole family agreed that we were so glad we stayed on the north side where it was so quiet. It was one of our favorite vacations so far and I know we will be back!

Wonderful home and location!

We loved the quiet location and beach right outside. We did not go anywhere else except Starfish point for one day. Loved that there are two restaurants within walking distance and walked the friendly neighborhood every morning. Great amenities were provided and everything was very clean! We definitely plan to come back!!

Exceptional location. Loved the peace and quiet. As first timers to the island, we would have liked a little more information about transportation. We also found out later that it was possible to order groceries a week before arrival, which would have been nice to know.

An incredible place to stay.

I can’t say enough good things about this place. It was immaculately clean and had everything you need from towels to sunblock and coolers. Its close to star gosh point and bioluminescence bay. This side of the island is our favorite. It’s relaxing and quiet but close to Rum Poont if you want more action. We went to beaches all over the island and decided the private beach right out the back door couldn’t be beaten. Shade, chairs, view of Sri ray city. What else could you want? And the price for this gem was unbeatable. I can’t wait to come back.

Peace, Quiet, and Absolutely Beautiful

This was our second time starying on the island, but first time at Sandy Bottoms. The house was perfect and more than we were expecting. Everything was clean and beautifully decorated. We took the kayaks out daily and they were so nice to have at your fingertips. We could not have asked for a more prefect stay. From check-in to checkout to owner communication, everything was amazing and easy.

Amazing Stay

We loved our stay at Sandy Bottoms. The property was gorgeous! Awesome screened in porch and beautiful view from the Master. Fresh flowers were a beautiful touch upon arrival. The house was so clean and just as pictured online. We enjoyed the beach chairs. The water was calm and great for our kids. The closet inside had plenty of sand toys, noodles and a float. They were so kind and brought us 2 travel beach chairs that we used when visiting 7 Mile. There were 2 kayaks that we used daily. There was a 2 person and a single but it worked great to use the single kayak for an adult and youngest child. Property managers were super responsive as well. Bring plenty of sunscreen and bug spray! Loved our stay!!

This was our first trip to Grand Cayman and we definitely picked the right place for what we were looking for... quiet, beautiful, clean, and inviting. Everything was represented accurately. We were able to spend a couple quiet days away from the crowded areas and explore other parts of the island. Not a terrible commute to Georgetown and West Bay if wanted.

Outstanding house and location

Our family throughly enjoyed our stay here in Cayman. This is a quiet but very luxurious area full of very nice homes right on the beaches. Gardens of the Kai beach was great for wading in and spending time in the water with a cocktail. Further out snorkeling and there were starfish everywhere. You can see in the distance Stingray city. A beautiful location. The property was clean and modern. There were fresh flowers placed on the table in the screened porch as well as inside in the living room. A great touch!! The house was very comfortable and the views were spectacular! We walked (the 100 or so feet) down the street to Kaibo yacht club for food/drinks a couple times. Great spot and launch point for snorkel and stingray city trips. Rum point is another great spot we enjoyed for drinks and a dinner. Overall a great vacation and the house was fantastic. Can’t wait to come back.

The condo was exactly as described in the listing, location was super close to Kaibo Restaurant, the ferry to Camama Bay, bio-luminescent bay and starfish point. We had two very minor needs during a stay, and owner response was super prompt. Highlight was watching sunset from the beach in front of the condo, stunning!

Perfect stay

The property was beautiful and right on the beach. Kitchen was well stocked which as minor as that seems is very very helpful so you don't have to buy condiments and seasonings if you want to cook. The beach is not a great swimming beach but the sunsets are beautiful.! Starfish point is within walking distance so we swam there. we took the kayaks out many times even kayaked out to the reef and stingray city. There is a pool for the community and even though it's for everybody we were the only people in it the entire week. Fosters, the larger grocery store is a little bit of a drive but we stocked up on our way in and then there is a little local grocery store which really had a lot of the small things we needed here and there.

Outstanding

We love the Cayman Islands, and this property gave us a wonderful homebase for a week. The master suite was large and comfortable, with the enclosed sitting area for a view of the ocean, large shower and the extra office space all air conditioned for comfort. There was plenty of space for cooking and relaxing throughout the rest of the home. We loved having the full use of the bikes because the area was safe and not too busy so we could bike to rum point, Kaibo and starfish point very easily, as well as the kayaks because the ocean was very calm so we could kayak to Bioluminous Bay, as well as the other locations mentioned that we biked to. The beach out front of the property was convenient, but we found ourselves out and about most often on Rum Point and only 1x to 7 Mile beach. We have snorkel equipment, and Rum point area is great for that activity. We saw 6 little squid or cuttlefish, 7 stingray (before we went to Stingray city), many starfish that weren't just at Starfish Point, 1 large Tarpon, 2 crabs, 1 Iguana, multiple hermit crabs, 3 upside-down jellyfish, and many beautiful fish. The Cayman's are beautiful and this property was the best way to vacation on Grand Cayman.

Great house in a great location

Loved our week here at Kai Gardens. The house is perfect - well appointed and well located with beautiful views. The beach is very nice - the water is not as clear as over on 7MB but is good for a swim. We went to Kaibo beach club a few times for dinner and on our last night we went “upstairs” which was wonderful - otherwise we cooked / barbecued at home (did our shopping near airport - much cheaper than the local supermarket). Kids did their PADI at Ocean Frontiers (very good) otherwise Silver Thatch is a good local alternative (snorkel, fishing and scuba diving). We would most certainly return.
