Grace Bay Resorts Marks the Groundbreaking of The Point in the Turks and Caicos Islands

Grace Bay Resorts, a leader in luxury resort and residential development in the Turks and Caicos Islands, recently celebrated a major milestone with the groundbreaking of The Point, an exclusive 56-home luxury development located along 300 feet of pristine Grace Bay Beach in Providenciales.

The elegant ceremony, held on Saturday, February 1st, 2025, at Graceโ€™s Cottage at Point Grace resort, was attended by an esteemed group of key stakeholders, local dignitaries, and members of the business community. Premier Charles Washington Misick joined the Grace Bay Resorts team in leading the event, marking a significant moment for the islandโ€™s luxury real estate landscape.

The event was emceed by Ilana Ewing, a prominent local figure, who set the stage for the attendees. A major highlight of the evening was the announcement of Grace Bay Resortsโ€™ partnership with Republic Bank Limited (RBL), a subsidiary of Republic Financial Holdings Limited, the largest financial group in the Caribbean region. This new partnership signals exciting growth for the region.

Mark Durliat, CEO of Grace Bay Resorts, stated, โ€œThis new partnership and Republic Bankโ€™s entry into the Turks & Caicos is a significant win for this destination. It has the potential to unlock new opportunities for the nation and its citizens. We are thrilled that RBL has chosen The Point as its entry into the Turks & Caicos, and we believe this is just the beginning.โ€

Nikheel Advani, COO of Grace Bay Resorts, emphasized the importance of the project: “Breaking ground on The Point is a testament to our team’s dedication and the strength of our vision for Grace Bay Beach. With a solid foundationโ€”both financially and structurallyโ€”weโ€™re excited to bring this extraordinary development to life and set a new standard for luxury living in the Turks and Caicos.”

Throughout the evening, Ms. Ewing captivated the audience with the history of the project and shared a promise made to the original developer of Point Grace ten years agoโ€”to preserve the spirit of an intimate, boutique property. She highlighted that, while the current planning codes would allow for taller buildings, the development team chose a more intimate approach. The project is designed with only 150 rooms, despite being permitted to develop up to 400 rooms.

The project has seen unprecedented success in sales, with 75% of the units already sold. Only eight of the 42 beachfront condominiums and six of the 16 casitas remain available for purchase.

Designed by the award-winning SWA Architects, a veteran firm in TCI, and Young Huh Interior Design, a repeat winner of AD-100 and Elle Dรฉcor awards, The Point promises to be a stunning addition to the islandโ€™s luxury real estate. The project is being marketed by Turks & Caicos Sothebyโ€™s International Realty, long-time collaborators of Grace Bay Resorts.

Amenities for The Point will include several new restaurants and bars, four luxurious pools (including an adults-only pool), underground parking, a double-height spa, an oversized fitness center with a yoga pavilion, tennis and pickleball courts, oceanfront cabanas, and a kidsโ€™ discovery zone.

The Point is expected to be completed in 2027.

Turks and Caicos Real Estate – Year In Review 2024 YTD Comparison

Real Estate Market Re-sets at Over Double Sales Volume Since 2020


Since the pivotal year of 2020, our real estate market has more than doubled over the prior pre-Covid period noting that from 2017โ€“2020, the market averaged circa $282M in total sales volume compared to the following four-year period 2021-2024 which has averaged an astounding $710M, a 151% increase! Further to this, the average price point during the same four-year period increased dramatically from circa $824,000 to $1,442,000, a growth of 75%. This spectacular progression in $ volume and average price illuminates Turks and Caicos position as a true luxury destination where quality luxury property and worldly luxury buyers have found a happy place.ย 

Also of interest, over the past four years, led by great new development such as South Bank, The Strand, Beach Enclave North Shore Phase 2, Rock House, The Villas at Blue Mountain and The Summit โ€“ along with select significant sales, Single Family Homes have excelled, averaging $360M in $ volume vs. an average of $178M for condominiums which ultimately accounted for 67% of residential sales. Average price in the two sectors follows suit, with SFH average price of $2,592,000 trumping condominium averages of $1,357,000.

ย However, while Single Family homes have ruled the day over these past four years, next gen condominium projects are now being heard from. With $363M in Pending (Under Contract) transactions, the preconstruction condominiums โ€“ led by The Point by Grace Bay Resorts, ARC Sky Villas at South Bank, Andaz Turks & Caicos by Hyatt, The St. Regis Residences and The Loren at Turtle Cove account for $240M of the $363M in residential sales (66%) โ€“ a complete reversal in market penetration! This next gen condominium boom can be readily seen from air and sea and road, whereas the major villa developments were more discreetly tucked away. With other amazing projects in the pipeline, our purchasers will have the best selection of inventory to choose from in the Caribbean!ย ย 

Significant Sales over $10M have shown steady growth, while the $20M+ market has expanded significantly since its first milestone sale on Parrot Cay in 2016. The luxury threshold continues to rise, with $30M+ transactions now occurring annually since 2023, establishing a new benchmark in the ultra-luxury segment. This pattern demonstrates the market’s sustained strength and evolution in the high-end property sector. With existing and in development significant estates now proliferating, it wonโ€™t be long until we see $50+ sales in our market, with $100M likely within the decade. Significant listings and sales of course make news, which is great for our jurisdiction as a luxury destination.ย 

As we look toward 2025, the growth and success of the luxury real estate market are poised to continue, securing the Turks and Caicos a top destination for investors and homeowners alike.ย

The evening was alive with smiles and anticipation as Beach Enclave unveiled its newest undertaking in the Turks and Caicos Islands, M-House by Beach Enclave is a masterpiece that represents the pinnacle of luxury. This development harmoniously blends the timeless elegance of the Mediterranean with contemporary grace, showcasing a design that is as bold as it is sophisticated.

At the heart of this prestigious project are nine impeccably crafted villas, ranging from three to six bedrooms. Each villa is the brainchild of renowned designer Rolf Blakstad and his Ibiza-based firm, Blakstad Architects and Design Consultants.

In response, Developer Vasco Borges reiterated his commitment to preserving this beautiful section of Blue Mountain in Providenciales.

Vasco also emphasized Beach Enclaveโ€™s dedication to maintaining a โ€œbarefoot luxuryโ€ ethos, ensuring that the development remains harmonious with its natural surroundings.

The celebration continued into the evening, filled with amicable pleasantries and a shared excitement for the future. Overlooking the breathtaking North Shore backdrop, guests toasted to the success of M-House by Beach Enclave and the vision it represents for luxury living in the Turks and Caicos Islands.

United Way Turks & Caicos: Desserts With Dr. Seuss 2024 Reading Fair

On December 9th, at the Turks and Caicos National Stadium, United Way Turks & Caicos hosted its annual Reading Fair, a vibrant and inspiring event aimed at fostering a love for literature among young students of the Turks and Caicos Islands. This initiative provided several organizations with a platform to engage with primary school students, highlighting the importance of literacy and championing reading as a fundamental skill for life. Events like the Reading Fair underscore the power of collaboration and community spirit in shaping brighter futures for our youth.

A special shoutout and heartfelt thanks to United Way Turks & Caicos Director, Nina Siegenthaler and the incredible Turks & Caicos Sothebyโ€™s International Realty teamโ€” Latoya Jones-Harvey, Lisa Lopes, Shanice Williams, Jamie Pollon, Olincia Missick-Robinson and Davidson Louisโ€”for their support and participation.

The Reading Fair also shed light on the ongoing efforts of the โ€œYes I Can Readโ€ program. This initiative is designed to assist students aged 1 to 12 who are reading below their grade levelโ€”often by two or more gradesโ€”by providing targeted support to elevate their literacy skills. Programs like these are crucial, as they address foundational gaps and empower children to thrive academically and beyond.

Currently, United Wayโ€™s reading programs support several local schools, providing additional teachers to deliver specialized assistance and after-school reading programs. The goal for next year is to expand this outreach by including Ianthe Pratt Primary School, further amplifying the programโ€™s reach and impact.

Volunteers remain the backbone of these initiatives. Their dedication and generosity are essential in ensuring the continued success of the reading programs. A huge thank you goes out to Claudine Ewing, the board of directors and all past and present volunteers who have contributed their time and energy to this cause. As always, new volunteers are warmly welcomed, and their involvement is key to driving meaningful change in our community.

North Caicos: The Emerging Gem in the Turks & Caicos Islands

Building a Beach & Canal Front Boating Community on the Garden Island of North Caicos!

North Caicos is awakening to its potential as the new development island in the Turks & Caicos Islands. With the new ferry and port facility at Belfield’s Landing now online and expanding, to the promise of the airport reopening, along with a new FBO to accommodate private jets, and the North Caicos Yacht Club now offering many new canal front lots, as well as custom villas with an on island contractor and developer financing readily available, investment in North Caicos has never been more solid. 

Over the last couple of decades savvy investors have been purchasing coveted undeveloped beach front properties in North Caicos from Sandy Point to Whitby. These prospectors have been betting on North Caicos emerging as the โ€œNew Providencialesโ€. Although time has moved slowly, we are seeing positive signs of this inevitability. Proof of concept is already evident in the ultra-luxury development of Parrot Cay, the neighboring island to the west, with stunning multi-million-dollar beachfront villas, spa, restaurants, and beach club. 

North Caicos is not about exclusivity, in fact just the opposite. The island is about inclusivity, having opened its shores to international homeowner/investors looking for a slice of paradise and a throwback to the pioneering days of Provo, with modern comforts that come with the infrastructure already in place and slated for the future.  

The North Caicos Yacht Club, likened to an early Leeward on Providenciales, has all the makings of the next premier destination in the Turks & Caicos Islands, without the accompanying price tag. The North Caicos Yacht Clubโ€™s marina, beach club and restaurant amenities will offer North Caicos residents a new option for dining, entertainment, and relaxation.  Additionally, the NCYC developers have many years experience building on North Caicos which eases the new construction process on this outer island.

North Caicos offers a diverse range of real estate options, including canal-front residential lots, beachfront lots, and mixed-use properties. With three reserves already sold, this development is quickly capturing attention.

Prime Canal-Front Lots

  • 44 available lots ranging from 0.35 acres to 1.49 acres
  • Canal frontages from 60 Ft of Frontage to 308 Ft of Frontage
  • Starting at an attractive price of $265,000, these lots provide an exceptional opportunity for residents of Providenciales and beyond to secure canal-front living in a neighborhood already equipped with paved roads and underground utilities

Mixed-Use Lots

  • 7 remaining lots, ranging from 0.91 acres to 5.29 acres
  • Canal frontage from 150 Ft to 690 Ft of Frontage
  • Notably, one standout commercial lot features: 1090 Ft of Beach Frontage, 613 Ft of Canal Frontage and 1,512 Ft of Road Frontage

Building Plans Available

  • 1-bedroom canal front homes starting at $595,000
  • 3-bedroom canal front homes starting at $1,180,000
  • 4-bedroom canal front homes starting at $1,725,000

Grand Turk tops searches for island destinations in 2024

Grand Turk has emerged as the destination that American travellers searched for the most on Skyscanner over the last year.

In its 2025 Trending Destinations (Travel Trends) report, Skyscanner reported that Grand Turk was the most searched destination, among the top ten destinations that saw the biggest increases in searches over the past 12 months. 

Searches for Grand Turk increased by 528 percent, with the Turks and Caicos Islands being the top trending destination for those looking to relax in nature. 

“As travelers turn to social media for inspiration, Turks and Caicos Islands has seen increased interest as celebrities like the Kardashians, Biebers, and Drake and influencer brand trips have popularised the destination โ€“ showcasing its natural beauty and perfectly Instagrammable backdrops,โ€ Skyscanner said in its report.

Minister of Tourism, the Hon Josephine Connolly expressed her delight with the results of Skyscannerโ€™s analysis. 

“As the US market is our number one source market, I am very pleased to see that our American visitors continue to embrace the warmth, calm and beauty of our multi-island destination as evidenced by the searches for Grand Turk. 

“We are beautiful by nature and each of our eight inhabited islands offer visitors a unique experience.โ€

In reference to Grand Turk, she explained that Experience Turks and Caicos is working with other tourism stakeholders to create new tourism products and enhance the visitor experience there. 

“From new signage on historical sites to the November launch of a Taste of Turks and Caicos culinary event every Thursday during cruise ship hours to showcase local cuisine and culture to visiting cruise passengers, they are dedicated to positioning the nationโ€™s capital as one of the top destinations within the Turks and Caicos Islands,โ€ Connolly said.

The Cruise Capital of the Turks and Caicos Islands, Grand Turk is rich in history, a walk along the capital city Cockburn Town, transports visitors to an age when salt production was dominant and colonialists from Bermuda inhabited the island leaving behind their distinct architecture.

Grand Turk is also a key player in NASAโ€™S history. After orbiting the Earth in 1962, Colonel John Glennโ€™s capsule touched down in the Atlantic Ocean east of the Turks and Caicos and his first step on dry land took place on Grand Turk. Today, a display paying homage to that landing resides in the Turks and Caicos National Museum and a replica of the capsule is displayed near to the JAGS McCartney Airport.

The museum itself contains a wealth of fascinating displays, including a 500-800-year-old Lucayan carved wood ceremonial chair, and artifacts from the Molasses Reef Wreck, which was the oldest European shipwreck excavated in the Western Hemisphere.
