***Property Overview***
Welcome to Kai Tana, a perfect 2-bedroom beachfront cottage!
New homeowners have taken the best features of this beautiful oceanfront cottage and upgraded them for your comfort.
Surrounded by mature palms and casuarina trees on a half-acre-sized lot, Kai Tana offers peaceful relaxation on a wide sandy beach with sophisticated accommodations for couples, honeymooners, and small families.
The beach is very sandy and reef-protected making for excellent snorkeling just steps off the house. Although barefoot water entry is tempting, water shoes are recommended! Sunset walks along the expansive beach in either direction are a must.
Inside, Kai Tana features an oceanfront living room with windows on three sides flooding the home with natural light and panoramic ocean views. The living room is open and airy allowing guests to "become one with the ocean" while providing all comforts and amenities.

***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.

About the area
Rum Point, located on the picturesque northern coast of Grand Cayman in the Cayman Islands, is a slice of tropical paradise that beckons travelers with its laid-back charm and natural beauty. Known for its crystal-clear waters, soft white sands, and an atmosphere that encourages relaxation, Rum Point is the perfect escape for those looking to unwind and soak up the Caribbean sun.
One of the main attractions at Rum Point is the shallow, calm water that makes it an ideal spot for swimming and snorkeling. The vibrant coral reefs just offshore are teeming with marine life, offering snorkelers and divers the chance to encounter a variety of colorful fish, sea turtles, and other aquatic creatures. The area is also famous for its bioluminescent bay, where visitors can take a nighttime kayak tour to witness the magical glow of tiny organisms in the water.
For those who prefer to stay on land, the iconic Rum Point Club is a must-visit. With its hammocks strung between palm trees and signature mudslide cocktails, the club provides a quintessential Caribbean experience. The beachfront bar and restaurant serve up delicious local cuisine, including fresh seafood, while offering stunning views of the sea.
Adventure seekers can take advantage of the many water sports available at Rum Point, such as jet skiing, stand-up paddleboarding, and sailing. The nearby Stingray City is another popular excursion, where visitors can stand in shallow water and interact with friendly southern stingrays.
Despite its array of activities, Rum Point maintains a tranquil atmosphere, far removed from the bustle of Grand Cayman's more tourist-heavy spots like Seven Mile Beach. It's a place where time seems to slow down, allowing visitors to truly relax and enjoy the natural splendor of the Cayman Islands.
For a complete island experience, travelers can explore the nearby Starfish Point, a secluded beach where starfish dot the shallow waters, or take a scenic drive through the island's lush interior to discover hidden gems and local wildlife.
In essence, Rum Point offers a blend of relaxation, adventure, and authentic Caribbean culture, making it an idyllic destination for families, couples, and solo travelers alike. Whether you're basking in the sun on its serene beaches, exploring the underwater wonders, or simply enjoying the local hospitality, Rum Point promises a memorable and rejuvenating getaway.
