Pools of the Kai
Pools of the Kai are 2-bedroom condominiums located right on the beach in the heart of Cayman Kai. All units are recently renovated and refreshed with modern appliances and contemporary decor.
All condos feature a primary suite on the upper level and a guest suite on the lower level. Both ensuites are equipped with walk-in showers.
The living area features a vanishing glass wall that opens up to reveal a private pool atrium. Enjoy island living with your own private oasis with spectacular water views!
Optional pool heat is available for a $25 daily surcharge.
Finally, the location cannot be beaten. Walk barefoot to The Kaibo or the Rum Point Club Resort for drinks and dinner. Take a kayak tour of Starfish Point and the island's Bioluminescent Bay. Catch the ferry departing next door at the Kaibo Marina for day trips to Camana Bay and Seven Mile Beach.
Staying at the Pools puts you at the center of the best Cayman Kai has to offer.
Make a break for Cayman's quieter side, where life is easy and not so fast.

Beach Notes
The white sand beach behind the Pools of the Kai units is pure, barefoot beach sand. You can easily walk 120 yards to the Kaibo Yacht Club for drinks, meals, and watersports, as well as charter boat pick-up.
Facing the sound, the ocean water behind the Pools of the Kai is clear and calm. There are no reefs here teeming with marine life, nor is the sea bottom sandy.
All beaches in Grand Cayman are technically open to the public. For barefoot swimming, we suggest walking across the street to Gardens of the Kai, or heading west to Starfish Point. Details under the Map tab.
General Grand Cayman Beach Notes
All beaches in Grand Cayman are technically public since the King owns up to the high water mark.
The shoreline quality behind your property may vary seasonally. Be advised that the beach or water entry behind your property may vary slightly from the images on our website due to weather.
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. Sargassum is a generally harmless floating seaweed that has increased in frequency in recent years. Although sargassum is an unsightly nuisance, it is largely seasonal in summer.
Our owners do make efforts to remove heavy sargassum and will have the beach raked prior to your arrival.
Should sargassum weed be extremely heavy behind your property, we will reach out to the owner for alternative solutions which may include a partial refund or relocation.
We try our best to work around mother nature.
