Prospect and Spotts

Prospect, and its adjoining neighborhoods of Red Bay and Spotts, are suburbs of the Cayman Islands’ capital, George Town. The area, surrounded by water, tropical vegetation, and interlaced with canals, is a far cry from the stereotypical image of a suburb, and is closer in style to a small Caribbean village. Living in Prospect, Red Bay, and Spotts means a quick commute into George Town—about a ten-minute drive with no traffic and closer to 30 minutes during rush hour. Red Bay also has the Grand Harbour shopping center, which has a large supermarket, a pharmacy, a medical clinic, and bank, which is makes this neighborhood convenient for everyday needs. Three communities of note are Grand Harbour, a mix of condos and waterfront homes next to Harbour Walk; Patrick’s Island, a canal-front development with easy access to the North Sound; and Old Prospect Point, a highly coveted and luxurious beachfront enclave.

Living in the Cayman Islands

Imagine a tropical paradise that is also an international financial center, and you’ll understand why so many are drawn to the Cayman Islands. Live here and you’ll find that going to your happy place is as simple as stepping outside—this is a place where the national philosophy is called Caymankind. Three islands make up this British Overseas Territory: Grand Cayman, Little Cayman, and Cayman Brac. Grand Cayman, the largest of the three, is home to most of the development, tourism, and population, while Little Cayman and Cayman Brac are both loved for their secluded beaches, spectacular diving, and unplugged lifestyles. The transformation of the island as a tourism and economic destination began in the 1960s, when legislation that established English common law and tax neutrality was introduced. Infrastructure expansion, including multiple airports, further improved the Cayman Islands’ quickly growing prosperity. Today, the Cayman Islands are a modern Caribbean gem.
