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.

The most unique feature of Abita Kai is that the villa, pool deck, and beach are wheelchair-accessible. The elevator, pool lift, and beach wheelchair are available upon request. It is the only large luxury villa that offers this level of accessibility.

The estate includes a 3 bedroom, 4 bath main villa with a detached 2 bedroom, 2 bath guest cottage above the garage. With a galley kitchen and living area, the guest cottage is a great option for teenagers, grandparents, or live-in staff to reside on-premises yet maintain privacy under separate roofs.

The estate is licensed by the Cayman Islands Department of Tourism to sleep 16 guests total, or 12 adults max. Children under 2 do not count against occupancy. Pack-n-plays and baby gear are provided complimentary through the Guest Services team.

Beach Notes

Abita Kai enjoys a beautiful barefoot white-sandy beach and northwestern sunset views facing the Stingray Sandbar and protective reef. You can walk barefoot all the way down to Starfish Point about 1/2 mile away, and north for about 1/2 mile as well.

The Kaibo is only 200 yards from the house and is an excellent place to grab your morning coffee, a casual lunch, takeout pizza for the kids, or enjoy an elegant dinner in their "Upstairs" fine dining restaurant.

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. Cayman Ferries also departs from the Kaibo across the sound to Camana Bay and Seven Mile Beach. It's the perfect day trip for guests wanting to explore, shop, or dine on Seven Mile Beach.

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. Be advised the beach or water entry may vary slightly from the photos shown due to shifting weather patterns and tides. The next-door beach is also always available for your use.

Ocean Debris and 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. The owners do make efforts to remove heavy sargassum and will have the beach raked prior to your arrival. We try our best to work around mother nature.
