Chris Emerson, CEO of The Loren Hotel Group, provided meaningful dialogue around the project’s concept, design, and long-term outlook.
Turks and Caicos Islands – April 30th, 2026 – Turks & Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty (TCSIR) recently hosted an exclusive evening at The Loren at Turtle Cove, welcoming members of the Turks & Caicos Real Estate Association (TCREA), alongside specially invited guests from across the island’s professional community, including representatives from local banks, law firms, media, and other industry partners.
Held on April 30th, the event was designed to provide guests with a unique opportunity to meet the visionaries behind The Loren at Turtle Cove and gain first-hand insight into the thinking and direction shaping the development.
The evening began with guided tours of the site, led by TCSIR agents, who shared an overview of the project’s layout, design approach, and distinctive positioning within the market. This allowed guests to experience the development in context, ahead of further stages of construction.
Following the tours, guests gathered at CAMP at The Loren, where Graham Canham, Global Real Estate Advisor at TCSIR, delivered opening remarks speaking to the significance of the project and its place within the evolving Turks & Caicos real estate landscape. Remarks were also delivered by a representative of The Loren, offering additional perspective on the brand and its vision for the development.
A highlight of the evening was the opportunity for guests to engage directly with The Loren team, including Chris Emerson, CEO of The Loren Hotel Group, fostering meaningful dialogue around the project’s concept, design, and long-term outlook.
Commenting on the event, Joe Zahm, President of Turks & Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty, stated: “Bringing people together to meet the visionaries behind The Loren was an important part of this event. It’s one thing to hear about a development but having the opportunity to connect directly with those shaping it, and to experience the site firsthand, provides a much deeper understanding of what is being created here at Turtle Cove.”
The event marked an important step in the continued positioning of The Loren at Turtle Cove, as TCSIR leads sales and marketing for the development, engaging both the local community and international audience.

The Window is Open: The Broadest Selection of Condos, Residences & Land We’ve Seen
We were recently reminded of a memorable meeting in 2021 during heady times, when a billionaire client stated: “This won’t last, you all think you’re rock stars but you’re not!”.
Today, we stand on the flip side of that moment, as we navigate a challenging market where luxury supply (especially regarding Single Family Homes) exceeds demand. Five years ago, luxury buyers, motivated by growing balance sheets and seeking shelter from the Pandemic, went on an historic, luxury real estate spending spree and it created a perfect storm where we had the ideal ingredients of ease of access and use, newer luxury property inventory and safety to capitalize.
As travel and lifestyles evolve, nearly the opposite applies, as homeowners, many of whom are using their homes less than anticipated, have decided to sell with significant profits targeted. Of course, there are other obvious geopolitical reasons for slackening demand and investors often desire calmer waters and clearer skies to purchase.
So, we are clearly in the zone of a buyers’ market. Even at the far reaches of the upper end, except we don’t have that many buyer friendly prices out there (with a few exceptions), as developer costs often exceed budget, and sellers, who don’t need to sell, seem to be ok waiting for their desired pricing.
The good news is that buyers have never had a better selection from which to choose, whether it be condominiums, managed and standalone homes, or select land parcels. Further positive news is the $469M in Pending (contracted) deals – mostly next gen condos led by The Point by Grace Bay Resorts, Arc at South Bank, The St. Regis, Kempinski Grace Bay, The Loren at Turtle Cove and Hyatt Andaz. Excitingly, Hyatt Andaz and Arc are both slated to open this year, and we are thrilled to have recently launched The View at Grace Bay and The Loren at Turtle Cove. You’ll soon be hearing more on these new projects.
It is worth noting that our first quarters have become increasingly quiet in recent years, as visitors and potential purchasers perform their due diligence for purchases later in the year. Travel is robust and our activity is up from last year, and we anticipate an uplifting Q2 and balance of the year as we normalize and work on closing the pricing gap between our sellers and buyers.
As we trend upward, we look forward to reporting more positive news to you in our 2nd Quarter Report. We close with a quote from a bona fide Rock Star:
” …Until then, I’m gonna find my way.” Bruce Springsteen, Lonesome Day

The Loren has officially unveiled CAMP, a vibrant pop-up dining experience perched on a scenic bluff overlooking Turtle Cove, marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter for The Loren and its future development in the area.
Inspired by The Loren’s guiding philosophy, “Uncompromising by Nature,” CAMP offers a unique lifestyle experience that blends coastal discovery, thoughtful design, culinary creativity, and the social energy that defines the Loren brand.
The launch event also marked a significant milestone for the development as Stephen King, visionary and developer of The Loren, announced the appointment of Turks & Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty (TCSIR) as the exclusive sales and marketing representative for the upcoming Turtle Cove development.
The appointment signals the next phase in the evolution of one of the island’s most historically significant waterfront locations, the site of the original Third Turtle Inn, Turks and Caicos’ first hotel and marina.
Chosen decades ago for its protected harbor, elevated terrain, and intimate crescent beach, Turtle Cove has long been associated with discovery, gathering, and a lifestyle centered around the sea. The Loren’s next chapter seeks to honour that legacy while thoughtfully shaping its future. Infrastructure works, including beach replenishment and marina dock construction, are scheduled to begin later this year, with the project moving toward a projected Spring 2027 opening. Joe Zahm, President of Turks & Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty, shared his enthusiasm for the partnership: “I am genuinely thrilled to be involved with a site that has been near and dear to my heart for more than 30 years. This is a place many of us associate with some of our earliest memories of the island – boating, gathering, celebrating, and simply being by the water.
To now help guide its next chapter, alongside a thoughtful development team and a boutique hospitality brand with roots in Austin and Bermuda, is incredibly meaningful. We look forward to introducing this next phase of Turtle Cove to the world.”
Developer Stephen King also reflected on the significance of the collaboration: “We are very pleased to finally be working together with Joe and his team. There has always been mutual respect between us since we first met several years ago, and the timing now truly feels right for the project. As infrastructure continues to advance and our vision for Turtle Cove comes to life, this collaboration feels natural and aligned with where The Loren is headed.” King also noted that the project reflects The Loren’s broader philosophy of stewarding iconic coastal destinations.
“Our approach in Turks and Caicos mirrors the thoughtful transformation currently underway at Elbow Beach in Bermuda – another historic site being carefully reimagined. Our new relationship with Joe and his team also complements our long-standing partnership with Buddy Rego of Rego Sotheby’s International Realty in Bermuda. Buddy, who is also the co-founder of Turks and Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty, has deep roots in the destination spanning more than four decades. The alignment between these partnerships gives us great confidence as both projects move forward.”
As the development progresses, CAMP by The Loren will serve as a seasonal gathering place for the Turks and Caicos community and visitors alike, a relaxed yet refined hilltop setting where guests can enjoy Mediterranean-inspired cuisine, craft cocktails, live entertainment, and sweeping sunset views over Turtle Cove.
The Loren remains grounded in a simple belief: places that have shaped generations deserve to evolve thoughtfully – and with the right partners.

Set against the refined elegance of The Shore Club, the 11th Annual An Exclusive Evening of Art Exhibition and Fundraiser unfolded as a dazzling celebration of art, philanthropy, and community spirit. This year also marked the successful debut of a Pre-Show VVIP access experience, offering early guests an intimate preview of the collection and setting the tone for an extraordinary evening.
The event achieved a remarkable milestone, raising $151,000 in support of the Edward Gartland Youth Centre and over $87,000 for participating artists, marking one of the most successful editions in the event’s history.
A record number of guests gathered for an unforgettable night defined by sophistication and creative brilliance. The exhibition featured exceptional works from distinguished local and international artists, complemented by breathtaking, show-stopping pieces from the Centre’s student artists, a powerful reminder of the transformative role of art in young lives. Guests were further wowed by vibrant performances from members of the Youth Centre, alongside a soulful musical set from alumni DeAngelo McCleod of Soulful D, adding an emotional and celebratory dimension to the evening.
The Art Show Committee, in collaboration with Finishing Touch, curated an exhibition of exceptional caliber, raising the bar for artistic presentation and experience. The atmosphere reached its crescendo during a thrilling live auction masterfully orchestrated by Sotheby’s New York Vice President & Auctioneer, Phyllis Kao, whose commanding presence energized the room.
Spotlight moments included headline works from internationally celebrated artist Bradley Theodore Harvey and artists Romello Williams, Fay Ninon, Eleanor McKnight, and Agile Levin, whose pieces captivated collectors and commanded center stage in an electric exchange of bids.
“This year’s art auction was driven by the star power of native son and internationally renowned artist Bradley Theodore Harvey and the refined powerhouse Phyllis Kao from Sotheby’s New York City, who ran an electric live auction and with Bradley elevated the entire evening,” said Joe Zahm, President of Turks & Caicos Islands Sotheby’s International Realty.
The Youth Centre Director reflected on the significance of the evening, sharing, “We are beyond thankful for the unwavering support of our sponsors, artists, community, visitors, volunteers and everyone involved. This truly allows us to continue making a positive impact in the lives of our youth and the community at large.”
The event’s impeccable presentation was made possible through the generous partnership of Gilley’s Enterprises, The Shore Club, Turks and Caicos Islands Sotheby’s International Realty, and Finishing Touch. Special thanks are extended to Wymara Resort and Villas, West Bay Club, Beach Enclave Long Bay, Seven Stars, Salterra, and Amanyara for their generous support through donated stays for the auction.
As the evening drew to a close, one sentiment resonated clearly, art remains a powerful catalyst for connection and change. Organizers now look ahead with anticipation and invite patrons to save the date for January 30, 2027, when the next edition promises to once again redefine elegance, creativity, and impact.
