Perfect Visit Again
We've stayed at this property a few times and it was wonderful to finally return after four long years. Everything is extremely clean and it's so nice to be able to step out onto the beach. We always enjoy nearby dining options - Kaibo Yacht Club, Over The Edge, and Tukka - but also really appreciate the opportunity to cook at home.

Great find!
This ground-floor condo is far from the developed area of Grand Cayman, which suited us well. It is close to many of the activities we did, though I recommend renting a car for your entire stay. There is a great restaurant adjacent to the condos, with a coffee shop, but other than that, no restaurants or shops nearby, so we bought groceries and mostly ate in, which worked great for us. We went in early May and unfortunately there were a lot of mosquitoes on the island. The condo is air conditioned and well equipped with all you need, and more! Even beach toys for the kids! We had an amazing time and I would highly recommend this place to those who are looking for a quiet stay, away from the crowds (we were also off season).

Return to Kaibo
This was our 5th trip to Cayman and our second time staying at Serenity Kai/Kaibo. We love it there and the condos are perfect for us! We prefer the quiet side of the island and going to local places like Over the Edge and Kaibo to eat. Having the condo allows us to keep snacks,etc for breakfasts and lunches if we don't want to go out for every meal. And the view from the porch couldn't be better! We also enjoy having the coffee shop right next door. We were sorry that Rum Point had not re-opened the restaurant and Wreck Bar yet but we did enjoy drinks on the beach there ($$$ so not many!). Cayman is our favorite place - we got married there and have returned for several anniversaries! We would stay here again for sure!

It is a bit tricky to find, particularly if you arrive at night. It is the building just before you get to the Kaibo restaurant bar. Very clean, very comfortable. It is nice to walk out onto the beach directly from your patio.

A great place to stay on Grand Cayman
I would suggest renting this property! Everything you would need in a condo is there! Excellent condition of the condo and on the beach. You would need to go a grocery store first to buy food. Rum Point does not have a store however there is a store 15 minutes away. The store is well stocked! Perfect place fir a great rest and accommodation. Support from owner and Verbo was excellent! Thank you for making this a super holiday!

Right on a private beach
This condo has a linai covered patio that opens up to a private beach. It's absolutely perfect. If you stay here, i do suggest a car if you want to explore Georgetown and 7 mile beach because taxis are ludicrously expensive and public transport quite sporadic. However, there are also lots of things right beside the condo. You have a little coffee shop, the yacht club and just a little further down Rum Point. Additionally White Sands Watersports does snorkeling, luminescent tours and stingray bay tours which start pretty much right outside your door. The interior space of the condo was exactly as advertised and everything was in great condition. The owner responds to questions immediately and the property manager is also very approachable. Overall, a great stay. This was a girls trip, however, this condo would be equally suitable for a family with kids.

Relaxing stay at Kaibo
Loved staying in this area, a quieter part of Grand Cayman. The condo was clean, well equipped and comfortable for our family. The owner is a pleasure to work with. Very flexible and accommodating, which is very appreciated during these times. Had a small problem at the condo, which I alerted the owner to. The next day the property manager, also very pleasant, had taken care of it. This, over the holidays. What more can you ask for! Our second stay here and won’t be our last.

Great spot and price
Our family did a staycation for 2 nights in June 2021. The unit was exactly as pictured/described. It was clean. Everything works. Property is well-maintained. Lots of board games in case you get a rain day. Location is great. You can walk bear foot to Kaibo next door (and crawl home!). 40 min walk to Rum Point. 20 min walk to Starfish Point. The only "negative" is that there is almost no food/condiments in the kitchen. No ketchup, mustard... Not even coffee. Only sugar and coffee filters. So, bring everything you need We would stay again

We loved our stay! The condo was in a very relaxing area.
We loved our stay. We had two kids with us, ages 12 & 13. The area was safe, gorgeous and quiet. You can walk to Rum Point, about a mile away. You can walk out your back door and walk 20 feet for coffee and drinks. The beach was perfect and well groomed. The property manager was super nice and helpful. Letting you know about the water taxi and cabs to call. The kitchen was fully loaded with everything you need to cook up a great meal. The Coffee pot and blender were perfect. They had all the Jimmy Buffet music you needed! The DVD player was a great way to end the day, watching movies and popping popcorn. We loved our stay! If you are looking for a quiet spot of paradise, this place is for you! You can walk right out to the beach. I loved that we were away from the pool. It was so peaceful. You can book wave runners, bikes, snorkeling events, and extras right outside your door. On Tuesday nights the band was great! We BBQed ourselves and listened to the music right outside our door. We also took a private sailboat trip for the day. Captain Ben Wilson was perfect. Picked you right up outside at the pier. You can call him at 345-525-1222 He took us to the most beautiful spots to snorkel! We loved it! And took us to stingray city.

We loved our stay at Kaibo. The property was clean and perfect for our family of 5.
The condo was clean and right on the beach in a very private complex. The owners were very helpful and responsive with all of our questions. This particular unit is great because it is on the lower level so you walked right out to the beach/pool. Made it very easy with youngish kids to go in and out from the beach/pool. At times you felt like you had your own private beach and pool. The condo has all the appliances and things that you need.

Lovely place - great location
We've stayed in this condo complex before, but this unit was new to us. It is very nice, and quite clean. Kitchen was adequately stocked - was happy to see there were sharp steak knives, and of course the requisite blender for delicious rum drinks! Our microwave stopped working one evening. I spoke with the caretaker, Barbara (a gem :-)) and it was replaced. All three beds had a pillow foam on top and they were very comfortable. The location is very quiet and serene. We love the easy access to the first floor units from the parking lot, and then just step out onto the beach from the other side. The water on the beach is not exactly prime for swimming or snorkeling, but the pool and hot tub there are great, and there are lots of chairs and hammocks to enjoy. Perfect swimming and snorkeling can be had at Rum Point, just down the road. We didn't see many starfish at Starfish Point, but saw loads of them on "our" beach, and extending down the beach along the condos - I think they might be hanging there instead to get away from the people at the Point. It takes a good 45 min to an hour to get to Kaibo from the airport/George Town, so you do need to rent a car.

Great place!
We loved staying in this condo! It was very clean and the beds were comfy. The condo complex was great and we were happy to be staying away from the chaos of 7 mile beach. We made many friends at the complex and the kids had lot of playmates. Seeing the starfish in the water right out front was really great. Would definitely stay here again!!

Great the second time around
We stayed here last January and decided to return. It was great the second time around. We did a sting ray city and also a sunset catamaran sail this time from a dock nearby and they were both great. I love the quietness and beauty of this location. Essentially all the usual vacation amenities and activities that would be available on 7 mile beach can be had here, sun, sea, great restaurants, snorkeling, boat tours. Tuesday evening barbecue with live music next door was great this time around.

Amazing Location! Relaxing with a lot of privacy!
I rented this condo for 4 nights, 5 days and my experience was perfect. The beach was right outside the back door. There is also a pool on site, hammocks, paddle boats, and paddle boards. The condo itself was equipped with everything you need and the beds were super comfy! Next door, 2 minute walk, is Kaibo Restaurant and coffee shop. Both serve excellent coffee and the food is delicious!!! The boat tour company was also close, 30 feet or so from the condo right on the beach. The condo is also close to the Rum Point bars and eateries, less than 5 minutes drive. The only issue I had was turning on the TV, but I called the property manager who resolved the issue right away. The wifi connection was strong... I am completely satisfied and would stay at this condo again in a heartbeat. Khalia C.

We were very pleased with this condo and would definitely stay here again!
We spent spring break with our family and loved staying at this condo. We liked being on the first floor so we could walk out to the beach. The screened porch was nice and we would have breakfast out there everyday. The condo was clean, cool, comfortable and quiet. The kitchen was well equipped and having a washer/dryer was great. Having the Kaibo restaurant and coffee shop next door was convenient. We rented jet skis and bikes next door as well. Starfish point was a quick walk away and Rum Point is a short drive. We had a great vacation!

Beautiful and relaxing
The place is fantastic, I would say idyllic and we loved it. The beach just outside the condo is great with nice calm water and beautiful palm trees and comfortable places to sit and lounge in relaxing comfort. It was generally windy most places while we were in Grand Cayman but not here as it is quite sheltered by the trees. The pool and the hot tub are also great. The upstairs restaurant next door is first class and a must do dining experience. We also enjoyed the espresso cafe next door and visited several times. We brought our own groceries and did most of our own food preparation which was easy as the kitchen is fully equipped and really nice. There is a washer and dryer in the unit which we appreciated. We drove down to starfish point which is also a nice area to walk about but there were lots of starfish in the lagoon just out side the condo. It would be possible to take the ferry from Camana Bay and not need a rental car to get her but groceries are needed if you want to do your own food preparation. It would be possible to visit Camana Bay and the 7 mile beach area using the ferry in the other direction if one wanted to. We did not visit the grill next door. I went fishing in the lagoon from the dock and did not catch anything but it was still fun as I got some fish to follow my lure. It seems that the successful fishing in Grand Cayman is outside the reefs in boats. We had a relaxing and comfortable stay and I would love to do it again.
