Kai Zen
This beautiful waterfront home welcomes you to a luxurious private enclave on the Caribbean Sea. Mature palms, ferns, and ornamental shrubbery evoke a tropical feel before you step through the front door. Upon entering the villa, your eyes are drawn through the living room's 40-foot wall of windows and out on to the white sand beach and shimmering calm blue water. Welcome to Kai Zen.
This stunning contemporary villa with an equally stunning secluded beach is located in the private resort neighborhood of Cayman Kai. The owners prefer a minimal "zen" decor with clean lines, crisp white furniture, and open space. This is a non-smoking villa, including the upstairs covered verandah and outdoor areas.
This two-story luxury villa is a great family or multiple-couple villa offering amazing sunsets and barefoot swimming from a palm-shaded beach.
Kai Zen is only a 5-minute walk from the Kaibo Yacht Club to the south and a 10-minute walk to the Rum Point Club to the north. Chances are you will not see a soul on your beach the entire stay!

by MaryThe perfect villa
by MarkThe reason we chose this villa was because we wanted to be right on the beach and have incredible views. Well we had no idea how beautiful it would be here. The sunsets were spectacular. The actually villa itself is so brilliantly decorated with practical yet wonderful furnishings. The layout is just perfect in every way and the views from the villa outstanding. We usually prefer to stay on a walking beach but having this different experience was every bit as incredible. Kayaking and paddle boarding in the ocean every day. Starfish everywhere. The villa was clean and in perfect condition and grand cayman villas did a great job in every way. The recommendations of cooks and massage were all excellent. Their snorkel trip they promoted was exceptional. Kissing the stingrays and holding them was very cool!
Thank you Mark! Glad you had a nice stay!!!

by AndersonsA week in paradise
by MadelineAfter searching for weeks for the perfect property for our family of six, we reserved a week at Kai Zen. We had been looking at the pictures on line since January and we could not wait to arrive. As soon as we opened the front door, we knew we had chosen the perfect vacation home - the pictures truly do not capture its beauty. The front door opens up to the living room with a 40 feet wall of windows overlooking a private beach complete with palm trees, a hammock, and enough lounge chairs for everyone in our family. The inside of the home was bright, beautifully decorated, and extraordinarily clean. The kitchen is stocked with pots, utensils, and everything a cook would need, all housed in lots of cabinets and very cool sliding pantries. The living room couch was super comfortable and easily fit all 6 of us. There was a shelf near the slider next to the pool (warm, spotlessly clean) that contained lots of fluffy beach towels . The basket of blankets in the corner was a very nice touch, too! The beds/bedding in all of the bedrooms were clean and comfortable as if they were brand new. The master bedroom closet was huge with lots of shelves, racks, and a safe to store valuables. The bathrooms were large and very well designed, with plenty of storage for all of our girls\' hair supplies. While the inside of the house was amazing, the star of the show is the outside area. We had asked for 2 kayaks and 2 paddle boards and they were waiting for us on the beach when we arrived. Joe from Silver Thatch arrived to unlock them as soon as we arrived so we could start exploring immediately. Judy arrived to make sure we were settled in and had everything we needed. We had picked up the complimentary snorkel gear on the way to Kai Zen and we put them to good use before we even unpacked. So much fun to see dinner plate size starfish right in our back beach! Kai Zen was more than imagined we all agreed that this was the best vacation we\'ve ever had!
Thank you for your kind review.

by AllieWe had a lovely stay at Kai Zen. It is perfectly situated for serene privacy with a spectacular view yet is walking distance to delicious food, drinks and activity. This part of the island is surely our new favorite! The villa is spacious and well equip, very tastefully decorated with lovely bedding and towels. We wanted for nothing! Check in was seamless and once on the property, everything was very straightforward. The property manager paid us a courtesy visit and we were very happy to have her local recommendations. We cannot wait to return to this perfect spot!
Thank you and please come back soon!!!!
Beautiful beachfront home with amazing views and exceptional amenities.
by JonThe home is absolutely beautiful with all the amenities your family will need. We found the home to be in a central location within the Rum Point area making walks to Rum Point (restaurants and water sports) and Starfish Beach a pleasure and easily completed within 15 minutes. The home has access to kayaks and paddle boards which we used everyday to explore the area, enjoy the sun, look for starfish and check out the bioluminescence bay! We also enjoyed the pool which allows you to cool off while enjoying some of the best views on Grand Cayman! The sunsets were awesome! Where else can you enjoy gorgeous sunsets on the privacy of your own beach? The home was immaculate and the one time we had a question for the manager their response time was immediate and they even followed up to make sure everything was fine. We could not have asked for a nicer home to enjoy our family Christmas vacation!
Thank you for your kind and thoughtful review.
Please come back soon!!!
Beautiful vacation home in quiet location
by LisaDREAM Comes Through !!!
by AKGreat week at Kia Zen
by sandytoesGreat trip and excellent service from G.C.V.
by E MGrand Cayman Villas did a phenomenal job organizing this home for us, the snorkel gear is top notch and the kayaks are convenient and quality construction. Scott in Virginia is so helpful to new visitors to the island - his experience shows. The house we stayed in might be one of the best we’ve seen. It is lacking furniture in several areas but the new owner has told us that should be fixed in the next couple months. The owner is quite attentive and we are optimistic this place will only improve under the new ownership.
Thank you for the kind words. Kai Zen is a wonderful home in a great location. Please come back soon!

by MurphAmazing Beachfront House!!!
by E.E.My family takes annual beach vacations and we are very picky when renting a house. The house must be beach front, have a pool, beautiful view, etc. Kai Zen is all that and more!! Kai Zen was perfect for 6 adults and 1 child - there was so much space for everyone, yet we could all be together in the expansive common area. The view is to die for with sliding glass doors across the expanse of the beach front view! I had SUPs and kayaks delivered to the private beach which was perfect for everyone to use as they please. I highly recommend this house! The location at Rum Point is walkable to the Starfish beach, in fact, there were starfish as large as 2 hands on our beach! The boys were picked up across the street for deep sea fishing. It was always fun to come back to this house. We even had massages under the palm trees on our beach! It was a great family vacation with many wonderful memories! There is great snorkeling off your personal beach!
Thank you for your kind words and taking the time to write them down for others considering Kai Zen. Beautiful home and location. Please come back soon! -Scott
6 days in Paradise
by TaraDidn\'t want to leave...
by SeanWonderful Home and Location
by R.H.The house was absolutely perfect for our family of 5. From the initial booking, it was all easy organized. The view out of the family room was like a postcard, and we couldn’t have wished for anything more perfect. Not knowing Grand Cayman very well, I took a chance at picking a location to stay, and I am so glad we chose the Rum Point area. We were away from the crowded resorts which was what we wanted although we did a few day trips for shopping in Georgetown and snorkeling up at Cemetery Beach. Rum Point did have loads for us to do as far as snorkeling, dining, and charter to Sting Ray City which was a must. We also did a few charters - one fishing with Tukka, and the other snorkeling at a few wrecks with Silver Thatch. I would highly recommend doing both - Captain Ron from Tukka was great and we also enjoyed dining at his restaurant that evening too. My husband and son also hired a bonefish flyfishing guide for the morning through Fish Bones. Only activity we missed due to the moon cycle was the bioluminescence cove. At our rental, the kids especially liked the pool and spent most of their time there. The home was immaculate and stocked well with towels and cookware. (will say it was only missing a few kitchen essentials like colander, measuring cups, measuring spoons). The beds were comfortable, and bathrooms were roomy. Our AC did go out in the master bedroom the last weekend we were there, but we managed with the ceiling fan. I did contact the property manager to let her know. She, Judy, had stopped by to meet us upon arrival, and her husband had stopped by to help us get the brand new grill working. Restaurants we ate at and would highly recommend: The Lighthouse, Tukka, Eagle Rays, Kaibo Beach, and Wreck Bar and Grill at Rum Point Beach. It was a perfect 10 days for us!
Thank you for your kind review. Per your notes, collander and measuring cups/spoons will be added. The air conditioner has been serviced and fixed.

Kai Zen enjoys a beautiful barefoot white sand beach and northwestern sunset views facing the Stingray Sandbar. One can walk barefoot all the way down to Starfish point about a mile away.
The Kaibo is only 300 yards from the house and an excellent place to grab a morning coffee, casual lunch, or elegant dinner in their upstairs dining area. The Kaibo also has a marina and is where many private charters will collect guests for private deep-sea fishing trips, snorkel safaris, or charters to Stingray City.
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.
Sargassum is a generally harmless floating seaweed that has increased in frequency over the years during the 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.
