Thank you, Daniel! We’re so glad Crystal Kai was exactly what your family needed. It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the amenities, well-stocked condo, and those incredible views. We truly appreciate the 10/10 rating and would love to welcome you back again anytime.
A spacious condo with a lovely view on peaceful Rum Point. Both the grounds and the condo were well maintained. The condo has everything you might need…from corkscrews to coolers to kayaks…honestly the best equipped place we’ve ever stayed. The snorkeling nearby is really great and Scuba diving on the East End is convenient as well. Nearby restaurants were very good as well! Highly recommend.

Very clean and comfortable place with quiet beach and calm water right in the back yard. Plenty of amenities for guests to use at the beach/pool, the chaises and hammocks are a nice touch. It’s a pretty long drive to Georgetown, about an hour. There are two close dining options (Kaibo and Rum Point) otherwise it’s going to be a drive.
We had a great time and enjoyed some quality rest and relaxation!

We’re so happy you enjoyed your stay at Crystal Kai Condo! 🌴 The peaceful beach and amenities like the chaises and hammocks are perfect for relaxation. We’re glad you had a great time and hope to welcome you back for another relaxing getaway soon! 😊
Excellent location with a great screened-in balcony overlooking the pool and ocean. We were looking for the charm and quiet of Rum Point as opposed to the busy, congested seven mile beach. Staying at this property made us feel like more like owners than tourists. There are two wonderful restaurants within walking distance of the condo and bioluminescent bay is less than a mile away. Tours and water taxis pick up right at the dock by the property. Perfect size for myself, husband and two teenage daughters. We can’t wait to return!

Simply Perfect ! It is located right on a private beach in a bay with calm waters for swimming, kayaking, paddel boarding.
Plenty of beach loungers.

The condo is very beautiful, clean and both beadrooms have king beds, and two couches perferct for two adult couples.
Enclosed balcony was enjoyable for morning coffee! Host was very helpful and responds very quickly.
Loved every minute of our stay !
The condo was perfect! It's in a beautiful location and it had everything we wanted, it was exceptionally clean and in a very safe neighborhood. The SUP and 2 kayaks were an excellent addition! The condo was well equipped with all the essentials... beach towels, chairs, snorkel equipment, grill, bikes, cooler, etc. It's in a great area to walk/bike around and explore. (Not close to any supermarkets). We would highly recommend!!

We had a wonderful experience at Crystal Kai. The unit was very clean and spacious with two king beds and two bathrooms. A fully stocked kitchen with ice maker, two small coolers, two large couches and a screened in porch with table and chairs for dining. A storage unit with two kayaks one paddle board, snorkeling equipment and beach chairs and umbrellas plus two bicycles. The pool and hot tub was clean never crowded and so relaxing. The beach area is very private and beautiful. We would definitely recommend this property nothing but wonderful memories.

Despite coming during a VERY rainy week in the Caribbean overall ( beginning of the official hurricane season) we did get some sun filled days and loved the Condo, amenities and location. The condo is very clean and nice and the proximity to rum point and Kaibo piers was great for boat excursion pick ups. Kaibo Club s a nice restaurant with good food albeit the parking lot floods with lots of rain. The bikes were awesome to take to starfish point or rum point. Definitely would consider coming back but a great value and location if you want something out of the 7 mile beach busyness. We recommend choosing this property Jan and Mike TN. June 2024

It was our pleasure having you as our guest at the Crystal Kai Condo, and we're delighted to hear they had an enjoyable stay. Happy to have you return anytime, and thanks again for choosing us for your CaymanVacation.
We spent the last two weeks of April at Crystal Kai, at Kaibo Phase 2. Easter weekend was a little busy, but afterwards the whole resort was very peaceful. Having a rental car is an absolute necessity, and there is so much to see on the North and East side. We ventured into Georgetown, Savannah, Camana Bay and West bay a few times as there's a few must do things over there as well. Crystal Kai is a second floor unit which provides very nice views of the pool, beach and bay. The condo itself is very nice, the beds are very comfortable and reasonably firm. The roosters will ensure you are up in the morning. The kitchen has enough equipment to get by, we cooked many of our own meals, balanced with several restaurants, as there is a lot of good local food not to be missed.We enjoyed the pool, the beach, the birds, and the palms swaying in the breeze above us. I can't begin to describe how beautiful it is, and how relaxing it is to be away from the crowds on the other side of the island. The drive is easy, just study google maps, prepare a route you like, and enjoy the beauty of Grand Cayman and well cared for roads. I would love to return to Kaibo and would absolutely stay here again. Bryan and Donna.

Bryan and Donna, thank you for your wonderful review of Crystal Kai! It’s fantastic to hear how much you enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and stunning views from the condo. It sounds like you made the most of your time exploring both the North and East sides as well as venturing into other parts of the island—what an adventure! We’re so glad the comfortable accommodations, pool, and serene surroundings added to your relaxing getaway. We’d be delighted to welcome you back to Kaibo for another unforgettable stay!
Great location for a relaxing vacation for 2 couples
Overall, we had a wonderfully relaxing vacation. The condo was as described and fit our group of 2 couples perfectly. Being in crawling distance from Kiabo, walking distance from starfish point, and a 3 minute drive from Rum Point was great. For planning, a rental car is a must have for staying on the Rum Point side of the island.
We did have some issues with the storage garage. When we arrived, the lock was broken so we could not access the kayaks and other items that came with the condo. Communication with the property manager was difficult resulting in multiple days going by without action. We then reached out to the property owner and in less than 24 hours everything was fixed. The lock was later fixed, so hopefully this would be a non-issue for future stays. The property owner went above and beyond to help us out and even gave us some money back for our troubles.
We were in the Caymans for a wedding at Kiabo so you couldn’t find a better location. Kiabo had a great Resturaunt for lunch and dinner along with amazing coffee and pastries in the morning. The water taxi also picked up at Kiabo allowing for easy transit over to the 7 mile beach area.
