Hyatt’s first Turks & Caicos property, Andaz Grace Bay, to open in 2026

After years of anticipation and construction delays, Hyatt is preparing to debut its first property in Turks & Caicos—and the Caribbean’s first Andaz-branded resort. The boutique luxury property, located on the famous Grace Bay Beach, is now slated for an early 2026 opening.

Originally announced for 2021, the project was pushed back due to the COVID-19 pandemic and typical regional development setbacks. Now, with construction back on track, Andaz Turks & Caicos is set to bring a new level of modern luxury to one of the region’s most celebrated beaches.

Set on 5.5 acres of prime beachfront land, the resort will feature 59 hotel rooms and 74 branded residences, offering guests and homeowners an intimate, boutique-style experience. The property will include three restaurants and bars, a spa, fitness center, kids’ club, and direct access to Grace Bay—often cited as the most beautiful beach in the Caribbean.

While Hyatt has yet to release full design and service details, early renderings hint at a stylish, contemporary aesthetic across public spaces and guest rooms. The development is expected to stand out from larger resorts with a focus on personalized service and exclusivity.

Turks & Caicos, prized for its turquoise waters and close proximity to the U.S., has historically lacked options for travelers looking to earn or redeem hotel loyalty points. That’s quickly changing. Andaz joins a growing list of high-end openings, including the Ritz-Carlton on Grace Bay and Salterra on South Caicos, part of Marriott’s Luxury Collection.

Meanwhile, the islands are also preparing for the Waldorf Astoria Turks and Caicos on Dellis Cay, expected to open in 2026 following its own delays. The property will be accessible by boat from Providenciales after a 25-minute transfer.

With its smaller size and prime location, the Andaz Turks & Caicos is poised to carve out a competitive niche in the destination’s expanding luxury hospitality market. Reservations for the resort are expected to open later this year.
