Abita Kai

***Property Overview*** Welcome to Abita Kai (pronounced A-bit-a Kai), a spacious oceanfront villa with a detached guest cottage, plus a private pool, dock, and sandy backyard beach. The calm, shallow waters behind this home offer a wide palette of blue and turquoise colors along with glowing orange sunsets.

Be advised, the beach or water entry behind your property may vary slightly from the images displayed due to shifting weather and tide patterns. The next-door beach is also always available for your use. We advise guests to wear foot protection (pool socks or aqua shoes) when entering the ocean to avoid injury on coral heads, ironshore, or rocks. ***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.
