Kai Kotch - Island House #17
Kai Kotch (Island House #17) is a newly-redecorated villa with comfortable, island-style furnishings.
The villa overlooks a sandy beach and the clear, quiet waters of the cove in the Cayman Kai resort area. This location is worlds away from the hustle and bustle of Seven Mile Beach and offers waterfront views, walking access to secluded beaches, and multiple beach bars, restaurants, and watersports.
The ground floor features an open-concept design that allows the living and dining areas to flow out onto the screened 2-story atrium. The screened atrium is the focal point of the home with water views, lounge seating, and alfresco, bug-free dining.
The fully-equipped kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances, a dishwasher, and small appliances. The owner also provides plenty of outdoor chairs and a charcoal grill for cookouts by the cove.
High-speed wifi and air-conditioning throughout the villa will keep you cool and connected during your stay.
A large shared swimming pool with a sundeck is located just 100 feet away! For adventure seekers, Kai Kotch includes a fleet of complimentary water toys: 2 tandem kayaks, 2 single kayaks, 2 paddleboards, plus a 2-person pedal boat as well!
With the bioluminescence of the cove, you can take your own "bio-tour" on moonless nights and watch the waters glow at night!

by leslieI left a few things out ;). The property was very easy to book and they, Grand Cayman Villas and Condos answered all 100 of my questions haha. They were very nice and helpful and it was effortless to book. Our property manager seemed nice. We didn't have to call her, but I did ask for a late checkout since our flight was later in the day and she was gracious and let us leave a little later. Places to eat-Rum point we had some drinks by the water and a couple of snacks which were good. They are only open until 6pm which felt a little early. We ate at Kiabo Beach restaurant and had the pizza, pasta and burger and ended with a brownie dessert. All very yummy....and if you are looking for a yummy coffee/latte in the morning they have a little coffee shop over there, too. Don't let the online info fool you, it is open every day not just the weekends. I wish i knew this when i got there. There is a coffee maker at the villa, but a barista coffee is always so yummy. This will be your only coffee place on the north side of the island. We also ate at Yukka and The Italian Kitchen (we actually had them deliver ) and the Czech Inn and all were so good. There are not a lot of places open on Mondays (unless it was because of the holiday) so we ate at the Moritt's Cavern and that was really good, too and greatly priced. and if you like to Snorkel......there is plenty of it. You can walk to nearby beaches and snorkel and see some great fish, take a 5 min drive and go to Starfish Point (no need to book a tour) and snorkel, drive all over the island and snorkel, too. We must have hit at least 5 or 6 different beaches not including the great adventure that we took with Captain Chris on the StingRay tour. That snorkeling reef was AMAZING! White Sands Tours didn't disappoint and you can get the boat 5 min away. We also did an east side biking tour with Eco Bike Tours. Shawn was amazing, informative, kind, and energetic. Got to see some of the island by bike and got some great exercise
What a relaxing vacation!
by leslieI knew what Kia Kotch was going to look like because I booked it, but was not prepared for how spacious it was, fully loaded with everything you could think of, clean and overall a great space. I didn't know what it would have for kitchen 'stuff', but it had it all and more. We made dinner a few nights at the villa because we were too tired to drive anywhere and they had everything to help us make a great dinner. The owners have thought of everything. From towels and cookers to hair dryers and body wash to blenders and tupperware, it had it all!! The beds were super comfortable, too. The area is very quiet and there are only really 2 places to eat that are close, but about 20 minutes away there are a few restaurants that we ate at and all are good. We didn't have a bad meal anywhere. We loved having the option to use the paddleboards and kayaks especially to investigate the bioluminescence at night and glad we didn't have to rent them. It was a quiet time of the year I think, which we liked, as there were only about 4 other villas being rented at the same time. We had 3 adult children with us and we all fit comfortably. I highly recommend staying here and if we were to go back to Grand Cayman we would definitely rent here again.
Everything We Needed

by JustinKai Kotch is the place to stay
by HeatherKai Kotch was the third villa we have rented from Grand Cayman Villas. It was by far our favorite. The villa is very well appointed and comfortable. It sits among other Island Houses within its own community with its own pool. We are a family of 5 and it fit our needs perfectly. There are many owners and renters who come during winter months who are in fact elderly, so we always try to remind our kids to be respectful and quiet, yet have fun. Rum Point Club was not finished during our stay, but there were plenty of beach chairs and bbq available. Can't wait for it all to be completed. The water sports amenities the owners have made available are incredible. This alone was worth the villa's rental. Our entire family of 5 was able to get out on the water at the same time, something you don't always get with a villa rental. Beds are very comfortable and we were able to get groceries delivered on the Saturday before arriving thanks to the manager. (All grocery stores are closed Sunday). It was a truly wonderful get-away thanks to our stay at Kai Kotch.
Our family of 5 had a very nice stay at this property. Very clean and all the beach toys included. I very much appreciated the extras like life jackets, googles, sand toys and enough paper products and cleaning to get through our stay. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out and come together for a fun family trip. Being just steps away from the bay, pool & Rum Point we had plenty to keep us busy. A very comfortable location to relax and recharge.
Highly Recommend!
by KeelyVery well appointed condo - it was nice to have toiletries, laundry detergent, soaps, etc. provided. Very comfortable and stylish. Very fun location on bioluminescence bay and the on-site kayaks and paddle boards allowed us to explore each night! Very much enjoyed the lanai with the loungers to give us a break from the sun but still enjoy the breezes. Highly recommend!
On Bio Bay!
by AparnaWe were a group of 4 friends including one twelve year old child. We enjoyed our stay at Kai Kotch very much. The house is very well equipped and it is in a great location—to get to the Rum Point and Starfish Point beaches as well as being on the Bioluminescent Bay for kayaking/paddleboarding both day and night. It is in a quieter part of the island which is perfect for relaxing. We highly recommend this space.

by MilWonderful, relaxing getaway!
by KristiThoroughly enjoyed our stay in Kai Kotch! Beautiful location on the Bio Bay and had everything in the beach house we needed, including beach towels, kayaks, paddle boards, and more. Comfortable beds and well-equipped kitchen. Fans and A/C kept the house cool during our July visit. We enjoyed great snorkeling with Ocean Frontiers on the East End and delicious beachside meals at Kaibo. Looking forward to the reopening of Rum Point restaurant this fall! Great communication and resources provided by Silver Thatch team, including the complimentary snorkeling gear. Enjoyed the great service from McCurley's car rental. Can't wait to return!
We look forward to your return!
Fabulous place to stay
by KarenWe love Kai Kotch, having stayed there many times. Perfect location on the lagoon yet within walking distance to Rum Point beach and sea. Property has kayaks, paddle boards and paddle boat included.
Many upgrades, property is well proportioned and spacious for a family and fitted out with all you would need for a stay. Booking was extremely easy.
Beautiful Setting
by SteveKai Kotch is in a gorgeous setting at the end of an inlet. You step onto the sand as you leave the backdoor of the villa. The villa itself is beautifully decorated, well stocked, and was plenty spacious for our family of five. All of the water toys you need are provided (kayaks, paddleboards, paddle boat). The area where the villa is located is quiet and laid back. Highly recommend.
Thank you for your review. Please come back soon!

These nine clusters of 2-story townhomes sit staggered along the water's edge with a shared community freshwater pool overlooking the island's Bioluminescent Bay.
Famous for its glowing nighttime waters, Bio Bay is a phenomenon not to be missed especially on moonless nights. Explore at your own pace or book a guided tour with our friends at Cayman Kayaks and Sweet Spot Watersports.
While Bio Bay is ideal for kayaking and paddleboarding, it is not ideal for swimming due to its soft muddy bottom. For a barefoot beach experience with great food and tropical drinks, head across the street to the new Rum Point Club.
Beachfront Dining
Fully renovated and reopened to the public, the new Rum Point Club offers a spectacular barefoot beach experience with vibrant snorkeling, watersport rentals, plus a new restaurant, and an open-air beach bar.
Another dining destination in the neighborhood is the Kaibo. A favorite among locals, the Kaibo consists of a coffee shop and two restaurants, a casual beach bar and grill, and a fine dining restaurant. Live music, beach barbecues, and full moon parties are highlights at Kaibo.
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 seasonally from the images shown due to shifting tides and weather patterns. The next-door beach is always available for your use.
Ocean Debris & Sargassum Seaweed
Beaches in Grand Cayman may also experience floating ocean debris and sargassum seasonally. Sargassum is a harmless floating seaweed that has increased in frequency in recent years.
Sargassum RARELY is an issue at the Island Houses.
