Villas of the Galleon's stellar location on the best part of Seven Mile Beach is the selling point here. The stretch in front of the hotel is spacious, not crowded, and scenic with tropical clear water and white sand. The property offers one-, two-, and three-bedroom units with full kitchens, though decor is dated, particularly in the bedrooms. It may be worth comparing rates with Plantana Condominiums, where the condos tend to be more modern and a large ocean-view pool is on offer.

Though not directly on the beach, the mid-range 7 Mile Beach Resort and Club is a time-share property just a four-minute walk from the gorgeous Seven Mile Beach. It has a great location, within a 15-minute walk to Camana Bay, an area packed with shops, restaurants, and entertainment. Though the 38 two-bedroom condos could use some updates -- decor is tired, TVs are tube-style, and bathroom fixtures are old -- the kitchens are contemporary and decked out with modern appliances. Private furnished balconies overlook the pool area, which has waterfalls, a kids' pool, and a hot tub. Other features include barbecue facilities, a tennis court, organized activities such as water Zumba, a dive shop, and business center. Another area option worth consideration is the neighboring Comfort Suites Seven Mile Beach, which has a restaurant offering free hot breakfast and competitive rates.

Located on a quiet road on the southern end of Seven Mile Beach, the mid-range Grandview Condos are made up of spacious, fully equipped, two-bedroom, two-bathroom units. Grandview lives up to its name -- units are oceanfront or ocean-view and offer impressive outlooks over the pool and beach. As with many other condo properties in the area, Grandview lacks features such as a fitness center, restaurant, or water sports provider. It also may be worth considering the more affordable Sunshine Suites, which does have an excellent restaurant on-site -- but its kitchen-equipped rooms are smaller and more basic, and it's across the street from the beach rather than right on the sand.

The mid-range Sunshine Suites Resort is one of the affordable options in the expensive Seven Mile Beach area, and freebies such as gym access (to World Gym two miles away) and Wi-Fi add to the value. One of the top-rated restaurants on the island is on-site, and the resort is conveniently located close to the more food and drink options as well. Each suite has a small kitchen but the decor is dated and the beach is located across the street behind another large hotel, which may be a deal-breaker for some. Nearby Comfort Suites is located closer to the beach and has better rooms, but smaller kitchenettes.

An older property that was freshly renovated in 2017 a la Jimmy Buffett, Margaritaville Beach Resort Grand Cayman is a solid upper-middle-range option for families, couples, and friend groups. The 285-room property features three laid-back pools, multiple dining options, and direct access to Seven Mile Beach -- though the beach in front of the hotel is rocky and only a small section of the water is safe for swimming. Simple, attractive rooms have balconies, Keurig coffeemakers, and shower/tub combos or showers. In-room massages are available and there are plans to add a fitness center, meeting rooms, and multiple waterslides in years to come. Travelers looking for a slightly more upscale option with a better beach might prefer the nearby Grand Cayman Marriott Beach Resort.
