If you truly want to spend time in paradise and you have every seen the commercials on TV with the water so blue and clear and perfect beaches and you say to yourself I want to be there... going to Grand Cayman Island you will be there and the Sea Lodge is the perfect place to stay to see all that is offered. It's pretty much a private beach with the best snorkeling ever right in your back yard. Susan provides your every need and more... it truly is better than any five star hotel.
Right from the start using McCurley's for your car rental who makes everything so easy for you by picking you up at the airport and driving you to the Sea lodge where your car is waiting for you and picking you up after your stay I must say this service is the best! There is a number of units but Susan unit is the best location, it protects you from the wind and the view from the time you wake up until the sun goes down is just a beautiful sight. Susan provides the best customer service and we have recommended this property to our family and friends. We found that we did spend most of our time cooking meals as eating out can be very expensive but when we did eat out the food was very good. We do expect to return in the near future with our grandchildren as we want to share this wonderful place with them.

The Perfect Place to Honeymoon!

Kiwi Kai is the perfect private island getaway. If you want peace and quiet, an empty beach with crystal clear water, soft clean sand, and no big waves...this is it. You are only steps away from the ocean and can see it from almost every room in the house. We rarely saw anyone outside and almost never saw anyone else down on the beach.

You can easily walk the beach to Rum Point for lunch or drinks. And not far down the road is a restaurant called Over the Edge, which we went to for dinner twice. They have the most amazing key lime pie!! And you sit on a deck that extends out over the water. Gorgeous even after dark...they have lights under the water.

Susan was amazingly nice, helpful and very easy to get in contact with. Every detail is included in the info. sheets. Tons of helpful info. on shopping and dining as well. The house was exceptionally clean and there were fresh flowers in vases on the kitchen table and even out on the porch!

The first few days were very breezy, but it got very hot and humid toward the end of the trip. The heat was a little hard to adjust to. It stormed a few times, but it would rain for 5 or 10 minutes, then the sun would come out and everything would dry right up. There was never a "rainy day" like we have here.

We highly recommend McCurley's for a rental car. We found ourselves driving all over the island almost every day. Visited the turtle farm, Hell, George Town for shopping, and just drove all around the East End to see what was there. We stopped at a lot of the little public beaches to take pictures and walk out on the piers.

We tried to cook our own food to save money, but found ourselves out for breakfast several times (Wendy's & Dunkin Donuts) and most dinners! Lunch at The Hard Rock gives a wonderful view of the cruise ships and the colorful buildings & shops in George Town.

Got lots of pics with an underwater camera...lots of different fish, lobsters, and rays. Amazing snorkeling in front of the house. Also a great selection of books! It was wonderful to just sit and read instead of watching TV.

It was so good to be on the quiet side of the island. I definitely recommend Kiwi Kai to anyone traveling to Grand Cayman. It was such a wonderful experience. We definitely hope to return someday!!

Great Island Get Away!!!

We stayed at Kiwi Kai in May 2011 - the cottage is as it's depicted in the photos - bright, comfy, and airy. We had the doors open to allow the breeze through and when the breeze slowed, the ample fans provided kept the sea air moving through the house.

The grill was great to have for cooking meals at home. We found the house to have all the appliances needed for a meals at home.

Susan was amazingly accommodating. She answered every question I had in a timely manner and her information gave us a good orientation to activities, dining, and shopping on the island. All of her recommendations were spot on and made our trip all the better.

The beach and reef outside the cottages was honestly better than the snorkeling excursions out at Stingray city. We saw rays, tons of fish, and lots of beautiful coral. The water was crystal clear and you can swim to Rum Point taking in the sea life. It was wonderful, we'd go out twice a day

We also liked the proximity to Rum Point for additional snorkeling, activities, and for a quick drink or meal.

I would recommend the Kiwi Kai to anyone looking for a simple, quiet, relaxing island experience.
