The owners recently renovated this second-floor condo sparing no expense. This home checks all the boxes for an island vacation and offers both luxury and privacy while being only a short walk from The Kaibo marina, cafe, restaurants, and watersports. Snorkel and scuba charters depart from The Kaibo Marina, as well as the Cayman Ferry to Camana Bay and Seven Mile Beach. The Rum Point Club is also within walking distance for snorkeling, barefoot swimming, and watersports. Starfish Point is also only a 5-minute walk west. For fun under the stars, book a kayak tour of the Bioluminescent Bay and watch the water glow at night! Bright white shiplap wall treatment, porcelain plank flooring, and a full kitchen redesign show that nothing has been overlooked at Starfish Kai. Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, a beverage fridge, a built-in microwave, and beaded-edge cabinetry are all over-the-top. A gas grill is also provided for island cookouts. Carerra marble throughout the bathrooms gives a very clean and tidy resort look. Nest thermostats control an entirely new air conditioning system. Outdoor amenities include a large pool deck with plenty of sun loungers to soak up the sun. The shared pool includes a spa (heated in winter only) overlooking a white sandy beachfront with seaside hammocks for guests to enjoy. Beach chairs are also provided to take with you to Starfish Point or Rum Point Beach--just don't forget to bring them back, please! ***Sleeping Arrangements*** (Licensed to sleep 4 guests) -- Primary Suite: king bed, television, water views, ceiling fan, ensuite with large rainfall shower, water wand, and shower bench. -- Guest Suite - king bed, television, ceiling fan, ensuite with rainfall shower. The positioning of Starfish Kai also lends itself to amazing sunset views and less breeze on the beach. That said, on cooler winter nights, our guests can shut down the air conditioning and open the front windows to allow the eastern tradewinds to cool the home. For a two-bedroom condo, Starfish Kai has the finer amenities of a four-bedroom villa. You won't find a more upgraded condo in the Kaibo Phase II complex. Notes: 1). A Departure Cleaning Fee is added to all stays. 2). Additional tandem kayaks are available for discounted rental.

Be advised, the beach or water entry behind your property may vary slightly from the images displayed due to weather.
