There are many apartment complexes on Seven Mile Beach itself, but most are rented out for short-term, daily rentals. However, some offer long-term rentals like George Town Villas, The Grandview, Sunset Cove, Laguna del Mar, Seagull Condominiums, The Sovereign and The Pinnacle. Monthly rental prices in this area range from a low of US$4,500 to a high of US$35,000+. Areas like Snug Harbour, Parkway, Governors Harbour, Canal Point, Crystal Harbour and the Cayman Islands Yacht Club are all nice places to live and popular with families, though the prices of properties are generally high and can vary significantly. There are many four bedroom houses in these areas but you can also find upscale two and three bedroom apartments in a few of them. Properties are usually well maintained and professionals tend to rent or buy them. These neighbourhoods around Seven Mile Beach are generally quiet areas, near to restaurants and the beach. There is also a very good school in Camana Bay called Cayman International School, which follows the International Baccalaureate education system and can accommodate over 1,000 students from ages 2 to 18.
Britannia apartments, townhouses, houses and estates are popular and vary in price, but based on the large number of units, you can usually find a motivated seller. Apartments and houses have either canal (aka the Britannia Canal), pool or golf views and the property is within walking distance of Camana Bay and all its great facilities. It has great landscaping, lots of mature trees and they allow pets. In June 2025, the Privy Council confirmed Britannia homeowners’ rights to use the former golf course and beach club as binding easements. The challenge now is the implementation of these rights, as the golf course has been closed since 2016 and the hotel has new owners.
OLEA is a new waterfront neighbourhood to the south of Camana Bay's town centre with 124 residences, lovely landscaping, a lazy river and a resort-style pool, and has shared amenities including a children's playground, community herb and produce garden and a gym, and you can walk to Camana Bay for the supermarket, cinema or restaurants. Kapok at Camana Bay is a residential addition to the Town Centre. It is a 10-storey, 120,000-square-foot for-lease residential building with 89 units from studios to 3-bed apartments. The Terraces at Camana Bay is a luxury collection of 63 for-lease one and 2-bed apartments (some apartments have a den which could be used as a second or third bedroom) and over 27 different floor plans. Residents at The Terraces enjoy waterfront or island views, underground parking, 24-hour security and access to two pool areas equipped with showers, bathrooms, seating area and outdoor kitchen.

Snug Harbour which lies north of Palm Heights Drive, to the east of West Bay Road, is reached from the Esterley Tibbetts Highway. This is a sought-after residential area and is very popular with families. As well as being family and dog-friendly, Snug Harbour has the advantage of being close to Seven Mile Beach and Camana Bay with easy access to George Town and West Bay. The area has two roads, Jennifer Drive and Andrew Drive, which run parallel West-East and finish at the North Sound. There are several intersecting roads in between. Much of the residential housing consists of detached family homes with gardens, ranging from modest 2-bed homes to more upscale, 5/6-bed residences. However, there are several apartment buildings and townhouses here too, particularly towards the North Sound and flanking the Britannia Canal. Residents of Snug Harbour enjoy access to the Snug Harbour Park, consisting of a tennis court, pickleball court, basketball court, a children’s playground and a large grassy park. This is a popular meeting spot for families. Residents can book the courts online.
Opposite the Britannia canal is Palm Heights Drive, which lies to the south of Snug Harbour and is accessed through the main Snug Harbour entrance. This is another popular residential location. One side of this road lies on the picturesque Britannia Canal, where you can find several attractive residential canal-front houses, townhouses and apartments. The other side of Palm Heights Drive consists mostly of detached family homes, some with beautiful gardens. Palm Heights Drive is often mistakenly considered to be part of Snug Harbour, but this is not the case. Whilst residents here use the Snug Harbour Park and playground, they cannot book the tennis, pickleball and basketball courts.
Canal Point Drive is a lovely neighbourhood of canal front single-family homes and currently, just three condominium complexes, One Canal Point, Lotus and Southampton Gardens. Adjacent there is a second canal called Clipper Bay, that has single-family homes, parcels of land for sale and two condominium complexes, Lumiere and Plymouth.
