About this house rental

***Property Overview***
Welcome to Kailypso, a 3-bedroom beachfront villa in Cayman Kai located on Bio Bay. Measuring over 2,800 square feet with spectacular outdoor spaces, cozy interiors, and a secluded beach, this popular villa is the perfect destination for family vacations and group getaways.

Nestled among tall palm trees and lush tropical plants, Kailypso's waterfront pool and patio create a tropical oasis. Plenty of loungers dot the pool deck for sunbathers to kick back and work on their tans. After hours under the sun, cool off with a refreshing dip in the pool or seek shade in the screened-in porch. A wooden pathway leads you down from the pool deck onto a soft sandy beach with a private boat dock.

Beach lovers will love this wide slice of paradise with chairs, loungers, tiki torches, and hammocks set up on the beach. Take full advantage of the private dock by booking a charter to Sting Ray City and request to be picked up right off your dock-it-s the ultimate charter experience!

Two single kayaks are provided during your stay. During the day, launch from the dock and explore the calm surrounding waters of Cayman Kai. Then, on moonless nights, take the kayaks out and watch the water glow with light as you paddle. Bio Bay is one of the few bioluminescent bays in the world making it an unforgettable experience.

Kailypso's interiors feature an open concept great room with living and dining areas furnished in light tropical decor. The formal dining table seats 6 and is adjacent to the kitchen with ocean views. A galley kitchen comes equipped with modern appliances including a microwave and dishwasher, plus cookware, dishes, glassware, and cutlery.

A full-width screened-in porch sits off the great room leading out to the pool deck. The porch is furnished with comfortable seating areas and a patio dining table (seats 8). A charcoal grill and outdoor dining table (seats 6) sits on the pool deck and is perfect for island cookouts under the stars.

Kailypso's three bedrooms include a master suite with a private bathroom and two additional bedrooms with a shared bath. The villa sleeps 6 adults max, 8 guests in total.

***Kailypso's Bedroom Layout***
-- Master Suite - king bed, ocean views, TV, walk-out access to the sunroom, ensuite bath with double vanity and shower.

Finally, Kailypso's location puts it at the center of all the best that Cayman Kai has to offer minus the crowds. Guests can walk to Rum Point to find a heavenly barefoot beach plus watersports activities, a beach bar and grill, a souvenir shop, and a fine-dining restaurant.

The Kaibo is another popular beachfront club also within walking distance featuring live music, food, and drinks, plus limbo on the beach-how low can you go- Ferry service to Camana Bay in Seven Mile Beach departs from the Kaibo Marina and Rum Point regularly making it perfect for day trips.

***Beach Notes***
All beaches in Grand Cayman are technically public since the Queen 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 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 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.

This was our fourth summer in the Caymans. We always choose to stay around Cayman Kai area as we like this side of the island. The house is a bit dated and had some issues. Nothing that impacted our stay, but for the price, I would expect it to be a bit nicer, more updated, better shower, and the pool was pretty dirty when we arrived. The property manager was super responsive and very nice. We will stay somewhere else next time, just given we’ve stayed in nicer homes for a better price. But, for the right price it’s a good enough house with a great location.

Excellent for walking to great restaurants and beaches. Ferry to Caymana bay is close by and convenient. Back yard and pool are perfect for lazy days in the sun.

We stayed in the house for 7 days and had a great time. Pros: pool in front of house, sandy beach, grill, outdoor shower, very nice screened in porch, kayaks Cons: only one grocery store within 30 minutes, water damage on ceiling in one bedroom, no ceiling fan in one bedroom We really enjoyed the house and would definitely come back again.

My family and I just returned from our best vacation to date. The house and location was absolutely perfect. We typically stay around 7 mile beach but from here on out we will be back to run point and hopefully this house.

Had a great stay at Kailypso over Christmas and New Year 2023. Great Villa with a beautiful beach front aspect. Walkable dining options slightly limited but happy to trade that off to be in a quieter part of the island.

We chose this property to experience the bioluminescence and be away from the crowds. The bioluminescence did not disappoint! It is incredible to kayak and see it. We did this several nights. It is much better than taking an excursion and only seeing it once. We rented a car so we could go to several beaches and go into Georgetown but we stayed mostly at the property because it was everything we needed to relax and have a great stay. The pool was a nice touch to cool off when in the sun. The property manager answered any requests quickly. The only downside was Rum Point is closed for renovations until April.
