Thirty-three local and international artists exhibited in the show which included a wide range of different mediums of art from acrylic and oil paintings, photography, pencil portraits, ceramics, digital art and jewelry.

The live auction with auctioneer Todd Foss, of Grace Bay Car Rentals, was exciting and allowed guests the opportunity to outbid each other on selected donated pieces of art by the artists in the exhibition including works from renowned artist and Turks and Caicos native, Bradley Theodore, were all available for purchase.  Four amazing donated stays/excursions from the award-winning companies, Beach Enclave, Amanyara, Grace Bay Club and Prive were also featured in the Live auction.

Real Estate Sales Continue On An Upward Trend!

Turks & Caicos Islands, the shining star of the Caribbean, continues to shine brightly as we see a steady influx of investor growth and activity in new development. The infrastructure improvements and ongoing utility upgrades will further improve to serve the luxury standards now set by our luxury home-grown brands and with the most recent entrance of world renowned brands such as Ritz-Carlton and Andaz. The construction industry has been busy for the past five years as we have witnessed villa projects and new homes being built on recently sold land parcels. In addition, high end land purchasers who desired to build from scratch, or who could not find a home/villa that fit their needs, have embarked on some amazing new homes and estate homes, relying on the expertise of local architects, builders and consultants, proceeded to build their own custom dream vacation homes. There is evidence of this impressive array of private development throughout the Turks & Caicos, especially in the luxury sector, as the islands continue to grow as the destination of choice for many real estate investors and visitors.

We are pleased to announce ROCK HOUSE has broken ground and construction has commenced on the majestic 14-acre waterfront site with the official Groundbreaking Event taking place last weekend.
Government officials and the community showed up to support Grace Bay Resorts and watched as CEO & Developer Mark Durliat gave a heartfelt speech to his faithful hospitality team, many of whom have worked with Grace Bay Resorts for decades.
ROCK HOUSE is the latest development from acclaimed Grace Bay Resorts. Unlike any resort seen before in the Turks & Caicos, this unique development and residential vision is located on the north coast of Providenciales, with 600 feet of frontage and peaks soaring 95 feet above sea level.
Taking inspiration from the allure and sophistication of European hotels along the Mediterranean coast, South of France and remote isle of Capri, ROCK HOUSE has committed the same detailed attention to its method of construction, as it has to the design phase of its refined resort experience. Ensuring native trees, shrubs, orchids and succulents will be incorporated into the completed resort by preserving indigenous vegetation that has occupied the lush and varied landscape for hundreds of years.
“Reusing these natural materials and landscape from this historic site remains true to the Rock House spirit. We seek to ensure a very low environmental impact, with deep sustainability and a sense that this special resort property has been here for years.” – Mark Durliat, CEO & Developer, Grace Bay Resorts.
