This home is so beautifully decorated and setup. It is welcoming and a joy to stay in!
The house is beautiful and well-appointed. The yard and pool are fantastic. It is all spotless and seems new. The location is near Rum Point. The quieter side of Cayman is perfect for a vacation. It was also easy to drive over to Georgetown if we wanted.
Kirk Cove was the perfect place to spend the week with our two young adult girls. From the location right on the cove, to the paddle boards, volleyball court and the hammocks in the shade, we so enjoyed our time here. The home is very clean and such a restful place. We'll be back.

We enjoyed staying at Kirk Kove! Beautiful location right on the lagoon with our own private back yard! The paddle boards and swimming pool were a big plus! Felt spacious and a good place to unwind ! Plenty of amenities and very clean! We will definitely return!
We had a wonderful stay at Kirk Kove! The location was perfect for our family- ocean on either side, nice and quiet street, and walkable to the beach and restaurant! The property manager was easily accessible and answered our call regarding a missing paddle head. Was lovely to have the paddle boards (we took them to see some stingrays with the kids). The lanai was the most perfect place to hang out with the kids. It is a well stocked house. Overall, a clean property but could use a little small detail tune ups like moving the toilet brush out of guests eyes and cleaning up a few of the dishes. Overall, a nearly 10/10 stay!

Reviewer Comments:
Such a wonderful house for our visit. It was clean, close to the Rum Point Beach and oh so peaceful. Would highly recommend. My only critique would be that there weren't any staples in the house - no soap, shampoo, olive oil, etc. But otherwise, it was magical.
We loved our one-week stay at this gorgeous house! It was the perfect size for our group of 6, including 2 children. The pictures really don't do it justice, it is so beautiful both inside and out. The views are breathtaking! The kids loved swimming in the pool and laying on the hammocks. The beds were very comfortable, the rooms are spacious and well decorated. The kitchen was well stocked and everything was spotlessly clean. We loved the big screened in porch and ate many meals out there overlooking the water. Check in/out was an absolute breeze. The house is walking distance from Rum Point, which is a beautiful beach and restaurant/bar. It's also very close to Starfish Point. This area of the island is peaceful, quiet and beautiful. We really loved the neighborhood. Our favorite activities on the island were the Parrot Sanctuary, Turtle Center, Sting Ray City and the Botanical Gardens.
The house was just what we wanted-a warm tranquil place to get away. Recently updated, great pool and grounds.

Overall, we were very satisfied. Great location with easy access to the sea and great cooling breezes on the large screened porch. Paddleboarding was fun!
Perfect spot walkable to Rum Point Club! Very quiet street with a private dock and big bbq area. The best part was probably the big screened in porch with the two hammocks!
It’s a very well maintained house with all you need to prepare meals and bbq.
Don’t forget to pick up charcoal for the massive charcoal grill in the back!
We were absolutely thrilled when we opened the door to Kirk Cove! The home had been completely renovated and they did such a wonderful job with it! Our master bed was comfortable. They had everything we needed from beach towels to extra snorkeling gear to a well stocked kitchen! We loved it so much we have already rebooked the home for next year.
Thank you so much!
This is a great house located right on the bio bay, away from the 7 mile beach tourist area. It is in very nice condition, and I think the pictures on the listing make it seem smaller or older than it is in real life! It's got 2 good sized bedrooms on opposite ends of the house, separated by a family room and large screened porch. Plenty of room for 4 people without feeling like you are on top of each other. There is plenty of space outside as well, including a small swimming pool and pier into the bay. Suggest renting a kayak to explore the bay - it's not a good swimming area (jellyfish) and there is no beach here either. But if you want a great beach and swimming Rum Point is a short 10 minute walk away. All in all, it's a great property!
Our family of 4 absolutely loved this property! The location was perfect for us - away from the hustle and bustle of Georgetown and 7MB, but close enough to visit when we wanted. We were minutes from the Bioluminescent Bay kayak tour and the Stingray Tour meeting points. We loved walking to Rum Point for snorkeling, food and drinks…and Kaibo Beach Club was also a very short drive away….walkable as well, but just far enough for us that we opted to drive instead.
There were 4 beach towels provided…the pool was fantastic for cooling off! Know that there is limited snorkeling gear there, so if you plan to snorkel on your own be sure to bring your gear. Also, other than salt and pepper, there is nothing provided in the way of condiments or spices. You’ll also want to remember to pack some washing detergent if you don’t want to buy way more than you actually need while you’re there.
The property manager was super easy to communicate with…always available when we had a question.
Overall, just a great place to enjoy your vacation in Grand Cayman!!
This place was amazing!! Bioluminescent Bay right out the back door! Beautiful home and property. So conveniently located near some great attractions!! Well stocked kitchen. Spotlessly clean. Comfortable beds. Easy communication with host. Awesome dock, volleyball court, gazebo. Walk to Beach and bars at Rum Point. Highly recommend.

Paradise
If you want beautiful sunrises and sunsets, quiet evenings on the screened-in porch, and relaxing days on the beach, this is the place for you. Cayman Kai/Rum Point area is far removed from the congestion of Seven Mile Beach. Kirk Kove had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. (Fully equipped kitchen, washer/dryer, AC, beach towels, hammocks, etc.)
Dining recommendations: Kaibo Beach Bar, Kaibo Upstairs, Tukka, Eagle's Ray, Over the Edge
We explored the entire island in our rental car (a must for this area).
Advantages: water safe to drink, constant breeze, no bugs, 75 to 83 degree weather, beautiful beaches
Disadvantage: groceries and drinks more expensive than the states
We did visit Seven Mile area on two occasions. We visited Governor's Beach which was not crowded and the water was crystal clear and deep enough to swim. We walked less than a mile to Hemingway's on the beach for lunch.
We were fortunate to swim with the stingrays. What a wonderful way to spend my birthday and get away from the frigid north!
