The Turks and Caicos Weekly News

Tuesday, Oct 25, 2011

A TWO BILLION dollar luxury development – featuring two hotels, 35 villas and plush condos – is heading for North Caicos.

The Greenwich Beach Resort & Spa is the latest in a string of forthcoming projects recently announced, sparking hopes that TCI is on the cusp of a financial comeback.Proposals for a European style-resort in Grace Bay, a new hotel in Grand Turk, and the revival of the long shelved West Caicos project are also causing a stir.And they’re all hot on the heels of a healthy surge in tourist numbers.

From home theatres to wine cellars, interior water features to a full service spa, Greenwich Beach bosses hope to attract an abundance of well-heeled clientele to North Caicos.The scheme will be spread out over 50 gated acres on the north coast of the isle, accessible only by golf cart.Developers plan to maintain the ‘garden island’s’ pristine beauty with a host of eco-friendly initiatives including limiting boats into the lighted lagoon to electric-powered vessels only.Up to 35 custom estate homes, all with either beach or lagoon frontage, will be created along with high-end condos, two five-star hotels, three restaurants and a marina.

With Provo’s new longer runway now complete, paving the way for direct transatlantic flights, plans for a 250-300 room European-style hotel in Providenciales are also on the table.

Complete with conference facilities, it is destined for a spot near the Seven Stars resort in Grace Bay and has already attracted backing from advisory council members.
A government spokesman said: “It would mark a diversification of the tourist sector from a condominium based model and into another distinct area that could attract a new market.”TCInvest is to lead negotiations with the developers, in consultation with the Governor’s office.

Earlier this month, Grand Turk pastor Chad Archbold briefed the consultative forum about a blueprint for a large hotel under discussion for the capital island.

Meanwhile, plans to restart work on West Caicos are gathering momentum. Governor Ric Todd was due to present a consultation document with details of the scheme to the advisory council this week. It will then be released to the public for further input.The Molasses Reef project has been on ice since September 2008 following the collapse of Lehman Brothers.The luxury 125-room hotel and 30 condominiums were 75 per cent complete with most of the condos already sold, when the US investment bank filed for bankruptcy listing debts of $613bn, the biggest in American history.Work on the exclusive Ritz Carlton-branded scheme, one the largest projects the TCI has ever seen, had been underway for two years.

The previously uninhabited 11-square mile island features some of the region’s finest beaches while the surrounding reef is said to be the final resting place of Columbus’ Pinta.
It is hoped the scheme’s resurgence, along with the other developments in the pipeline, will kickstart TCI’s listless construction industry and spawn a plethora of new jobs.
This month Tourist Board figures revealed TCI had seen an 18 per cent rise in visitor numbers for the first half of the year, compared to the same period last year.

Between January and June, the country welcomed in 222,596 visitors. A campaign to lure more visitors to the sister islands too is now underway via eye-catching billboards and media advertisements.

Government is awaiting a consultation document from someone who has been described as ‘a serious investor’ interested in the unfinished West Caicos resort project, which it said should aimed at highlighting the benefits for the economy and the people of the TCI.
Governor Damian Roderick ‘Ric’ Todd, who made the disclosure at a post Advisory Council press briefing at the office of the Department of Disaster Management and Emergency on Providenciales Wednesday, October 19, said also that a package to encourage the development is also being worked on.

“There is a proposal by a serious investor to take over and complete the West Caicos development, and what I have decided is that, there will be two things will happen. First, the developer will produce a consultation document setting out what it is they plan to do on the island and the benefits they feel will come to the people and the economy of these islands. And that will then be discussed among everyone.“Second, we are negotiating with the developer a suitable package which will encourage that development to take place, subject to the consultation being favourable and subject to us agreeing the right terms and conditions, I would like to see that development go forward,” Governor Todd said.
Governor Todd told the media that he took a trip to West Caicos last week to see first hand the calibre of structure that is laid their and was impressed with the architecture and the nature reserve, saying that it has a great deal of potential of income generation.
The Governor, however, could not give a timeline as to when the go ahead would issued for the development to continue saying it is based on the paperwork to be and the package being worked on.

“We are waiting on the developers to present us with their consultation document. I was hoping to have it in time for the meeting today (Wednesday), but they have not yet completed it. So, I think we would move as fast as the developers are able to move,” Governor Todd said.

Recently The SUN reported that a number of overseas investors have expressed their interest in resuming the stalled Molasses Reef Ritz Carlton development on West Caicos, and based on interest expressed, the project could soon come back on stream.

At the time of its development the property was being marketed as:
•    A 125 sea-swept suites and 75 private, Ritz-Carlton branded Island Villas;
•    Three restaurants created by renowned Chef Gray Kunz;
•    A full-service spa, offering indigenous treatments;
•    Ocean-front guest suites with private terraces, overlooking more than a half mile of pristine Caribbean beach;
•    A natural wildlife sanctuary, two national parks; and
•    An array of archaeological and cultural sites

Globally, things may change, but the Turks and Caicos Islands remain a destination where people want to be. “Whilst the Turks and Caicos Islands have definitely experienced a slowdown in the last three years, this does not mean that the islands are at a standstill. In fact, far from it.” says Katherine Baryluk and Robert Greenwood of Regency International Estates and exclusive Brokers for the Babalua Beach Residences.

 “There is a gap in the market – these beautiful, beachfront residences are designed without compromise and to fill this void”.

The historic 6 acre beachfront property, now the site for the Babalua Beach Residences, is centrally located on the most popular North shore of Providenciales. It has been completely designed with the ocean and elements in mind, or as we like to call it “Caribbean Curb appeal”. Originally the location of one of the first homes in the area, known as “Mother’s House”, the site offers stunning elevated vistas of the Atlantic, with spectacular island views. All steps away from over 650 linear feet of one of Turks and Caicos Islands’ most famous, and historic beaches, Babalua Beach.

The initial development plan is to build an exclusive private residential enclave that would offer a selection of high end, luxury properties ranging from Majestic Estate Villas, to Luxury Estate Homes and Cool Beachfront Cottages, all with gracious homeowner amenities and services. Each property has been designed by the renowned architect Ron Shaw, with contemporary Caribbean styling and a sleek modernism that has fast become the new Caribbean, a must-have for those who not only want value and today’s modern standards in construction and style, but also maximizing the efficiency, comfort and ease of their residence.

The developers of the Babalua Beach Residences place a priority on developing properties with the highest standards of quality, distinguished by the finest architectural details with the utmost attention to the right combination of style and luxury. To top it off, they’ve engaged the landscaping services of Tuckers Hill.

As a result, the they believe that this site would be the perfect location for an exclusive Private Residence Luxury Enclave of homes, which would be a unique, "one of a kind" property for you and the Turks and Caicos Islands. The goal is to deliver an island experience that cannot be otherwise experienced in the Turks and Caicos.
