đïžVACAY KAI: Beachfront 1 Bdrm Penthouse. SPECIAL:âŒïžDiscountâŒïž for 7+ Days RentalâŒïž
Location Location Location!! Wakeup each day to YOUR piece of OCEANFRONT paradise at "Vacay Kai" on the Retreat Beach @Rum Point, one of the most picturesque beaches in Grand Cayman. This oversized beachfront penthouse condo features a large screened-in lanai directly overlooking the gorgeous white-sandy beach and aquamarine Caribbean Sea. Recent renovation throughout features an open-concept kitchen, living and dining room, designer bathroom with rain showerhead, new light fixtures, and complimentary wifi & TV for your evening streaming or computer pleasure.
Kick back "island style" in a luxurious setting as you leave behind the crowds, traffic and hustle & bustle of Seven Mile Beach. The Retreat is located at Rum Point in the heart of Cayman Kai, on the Northside of the island. There are only 23 units on 7 acres of beachfront property with 1300 feet of powder-sugar white sandy beach. The water is a shallow aquamarine-blue dream. The beach has private lounge chairs, lots of vegetation, shade trees (Palm & Casuarina), and wildlife, making it a nature lover's paradise. The waters are part of a nationally protected marine park so you will find lots of fish, coral and turtles to befriend during your daily snorkels. Because of its location (on a point), not only do you have a gentle breeze throughout the day to keep you comfortable, but you can view BOTH the sunrise on the north facing beach in the mornings AND the gorgeous sunset on the western facing beach in the evenings between Spring and Fall Equinoxes. How romantic is that?
âVacay Kaiâ is a large upscale 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom condominium with more than 1,039sf of AC/heated living space. The spacious bedroom offers a king-sized bed and the living room offers a queen-sized sleeper sofa. The kitchen boasts recently renovated beach shaker white cabinets, sink, faucet and stardust quartzite countertops. It is fully equipped with a full-sized refrigerator with icemaker, microwave, stove, oven, dishwasher & disposal. Moreover, it is stocked with cookware, small appliances, dishes, plates, and silverware to cook your favorite gourmet meals. Enjoy the view of the Caribbean Sea as you prep your breakfasts and lunches. Better yet, enjoy your meal at the table on the screened lanai, then relax afterwards (or nap!) with your favorite book on one of the lounge chairs. This condo is ideally situated for a couple or small young family.
If youâd like to take it easy, a quick 2 minute walk next door will bring you to Rum Point Club where you can grab a bite to eat and a cool drink to sip while enjoying the day, especially the breathtaking sunsets. You can also easily catch an excursion (Stingray City, snorkeling boat trip, Coral Gardens and/or Barrier Reefs, romantic sunset sail, etc) right from the pier at Rum Point Club. If youâre a dive enthusiast, the famous North Shore/North Wall offers some of the finest dive sites in the world. There are several dive shops in the area with whom you can set up your dives. Even daily, if youâre seeking a dive vacation! A short drive away is Starfish Beach where starfishes are easily found and the Cayman Crystal Caves where you can explore a tropical forest and amazing underground caverns. In the evening, you may choose to join the kayak excursion on the bioluminescent bay across the street (meet-up for this excursion is at Rum Point Club parking lot), where the water glows with each paddle or movement. There are delightful restaurants as well as a small grocery store nearby (listed in your welcome package). Or, if youâd like to head to the shopping and fine dining at Camana Bay/7 Mile Beach area, a 20 minute ferry can be caught down a short drive down the street which will take you to Camana Bay!
For the more active guests, you can enjoy the Retreatâs private pool, gym, tennis court, and ample PRIVATE parking lot. Each building also offers a charcoal grill for your barbecuing pleasure. For a simple night in, there are DVDs, games and books for your enjoyment.

Clean, comfortable, quiet, and close to the beach. Good parking. Host answered all questions promptly; very efficient. We had a wonderful stay; just too short.
The most wonderful tripâŠeverything was amazing and the condo was in the perfect location with easy access to rum point beach. Host was so communicative and the check in and check out process was so easy! Snorkel equipment, floats and big beach towelsâŠeverything we needed was include in the condo! Comfy bed, kitchen with all the amenities and the screened in lanai was the perfect combo!
We had a wonderful stay. The location was perfect, the bed wonderful. We cooked nightly in the well supplied kitchen. Thank you so much for a fabulous property.
The views the location on the island was amazing! The host was very helpful with recommendations and communication. This is the best location on the island! Would recommend!
The host was very helpful in providing listings of local grocery stores, restaurants and things to do and included directions to get to the unit. All of her information was helpful in getting ready for our trip and made it much easier! The unit was very nice, clean and comfortable and had a great screened in porch which was about 50-75' from the ocean, awesome view every day! It had all the comforts of home and all the amenities you'd need. You won't go wrong booking this unit for your vacation!!!
Thank you for the 5-stars review. You are on point: The snorkeling at Rum Point's underwater marine park has so many colors and much to see...you can check out a different area of it each day and see a variety; it is our favorite spot on the entire island. We hope you've a safe trip home and look forward to hosting you again in the future!
Mary at Vacay Kai
Condo was well equipped with anything one would need for a relaxing vacation. The location was fantastic and the host Mary was very reachable, welcoming and very informative
Thank you for your review. We enjoyed hosting you and loved hearing about all the wonderful memories you all made. I love our quiet retreat getaway that feels like you've the beaches to yourself yet has everything close by without the touristic traffic backups and crowds of 7Mile. It's the best of both worlds: relaxing and fun rolled into one. Glad you guys got to get away from the cold winter dreary January and hope the sunshine of the island stays with you all!
Best,
Mary @ Vacay Kai
This was our second stay in Maryâs property and we truly love it! Highly recommend the extremely quiet spot with great snorkelling right off the beach. Mary is a great host.
One of the best indicators of how great a property is and personal rewards to a host like me is happy returning guests. Every.single.time. We're honored you chose to return to us and loved hosting you and your family! I couldn't have asked for more wonderful guests. You're true gems! We're glad you found true relaxation and fun with us, and that you made more cherished memories. We look forward to seeing again next time.
We thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay at Vacay Kai.
The condo was perfect for our 9 night stay.
Very quiet area with amazing snorkeling from the beach.
We will definitely be back!
Lori,
It was absolutely a pleasure for you guys to return to us from your previous stay (with Adela), and we cannot wait to welcome you both again. Returning and happy guests are truly the best compliments to a host like us.
The snorkeling from the beach IS truly the best on the island: It's SO easy to just walk into the calm waters from the beach, and of course enjoy the delicious foods and drinks from the restaurant next door during/afterwards too! Makes for an easy and relaxing vacation. We look forward to meeting your family and friends...please ask them to send us a booking inquiry so we know it's a referral from you. đ We love families and friends of great guests like you guys. See you both again in paradise soon!
This property was simply perfect for us. Beautiful location and everything we needed. Communication was easy and quick. Couldnât ask for more. Thank you for a wonderful vacation.
Thank you so much for your kind review. We loved hearing about seeing our resident turtle and stingray when you snorkeled in the marine park area off of our beach. Weâre happy you made some amazingly wonderful memories. You guys were amazing guests and we canât wait to host you again.
This is a good spot for a couple, as it has a lovely view of the sea from the lanai. My husband had had leg surgery 7 weeks prior, so we made good use of the exercise room and the pool for morning physio therapy. With a friendly smile, the groundskeeper works tirelessly to keep the property spotless. In fact, he was just one of many truly lovely people that we met during our one week stay. We do 2 Caribbean vacations each year and we think that this was possibly the friendliest atmosphere we have encountered. This includes locals and expats. Everyone wanted to make our stay the best it could be. It was a nice feeling.The little beach area was perfect for us, never having to fight for a beach chair! We never missed a sunset.Unfortunately, we had a severely windy week that cancelled our bioluminescence tour and kept us from doing as much snorkelling as weâd like, but this point is part of a marine protected area, making it a great spot for snorkelling. We got in 3 snorkels and saw a spotted eagle ray, green turtles, porcupine fish, a big mutton snapper, lionfish (unfortunately), lots of the usual reef species and stingrays on the nearby sandbar.We will be back to do more snorkeling and to get that bioluminescence tour in!
Beautiful spot in Rum Point. Condo had everything we needed for a very confortable stay. 3rd floor, so there are steps to climb, but the view is gorgeous. Would definitely go back
Perfect location away from the bustling 7 mile beach. Adjacent to Rum Point beach with a peaceful beach and great food and drinks. The condo was clean, comfortable and well appointed. Mary supplied us with great tips on attractions, food shopping and restaurants. Would absolutely return and recommend highly!
Great place to spend your downtime on the island... I loved looking out at the beach from the screened in balcony. Has more than just the essential amenities (washer+dryer, beach supplies,kitchen utensils, etc.). Walking distance to Rum Point Beach with food and full bar. Would definitely stay again!
We love the sun, turquoise sea, plentiful sealife and tranquility. Cayman Island offers all of that along with the kindest and most welcoming people. The islands motto of "Cayman Kind" is so very true. The relaxation and joy we experience whenever we're on the island fills our hearts and soul. As foodies, we've enjoyed some of the best tasting and delicious fusion cuisines. We'd love to share all this with others. Life is about not only enjoying the present, but also making cherished lifelong memories. That is what motivates our hosting. Let our vacation home be YOUR vacation home. Today and for the years to come.
Cayman Kai/North Shore is an unique location. It is away from the hustle and bustle (let's face it: traffic traffic traffic!) of 7 mile beach. You're on vacation. Rum Point and Vacay Kai has some of the most beautiful beaches and sea life. And it's tranquil...so you can have fun and RELAX on your vacation! From holding starfishes at Starfish Beach, to kissing a stingray at Stingray City, to snorkeling at the nearby barrier reefs, to diving at some of the best dive sites in the world (which happen to be located right here in North Shore), to simply swimming with the turtles at our beach on the western side of our property where Rum Point Club Pier is located, to laying out on one of the Retreat's private lounge chairs on the north-facing beach, YOU decide how you'd like to relax. If you are a foodie, there are tantalizing restaurants within a 20 minute drive OR you can catch the ferry to Caymana Bay! It's the center and heart of Cayman in a chilled environment. Perfect for vacationing!
Vacay Kai is a penthouse unit with breath-taking views of the beach and turquoise Caribbean Sea. It's a spacious one bedroom unit, perfect for couples. You can look out to the sea while you wash dishes after a delicious home-cooked meal or catch a nap ("I was reading a book and...") on one of the loungechairs in the screened oversized lanai. Because you are not on the ground level, it is quieter from any foot traffic. And you WON'T hear footsteps or squeaky chairs above you. If you need to hop on your computer, there is a desk in the bedroom or better yet, you can sit on the lanai and do it while listening to the gentle waves and feeling the gentle breezes. Warning: you may get distracted by the gorgeous water view. That's ok...afterall, you ARE in paradise. Vacay Kai was renovated not long ago and has all the comforts of home in a spa-like environment. It IS paradise. Come enjoy your vacation with us. This year, and you'll be back for years to come.
