Wyndham Hotels and Resorts
is to expand its Caribbean portfolio into the Turks and Caicos Islands with the development of a luxury 251-unit
oceanfront resort at Pirate's Bay on the west coast of Grand Turk Island.
The Wyndham Cacique Royale Beach Resort is being developed in two phases by Prestigious Properties,
one of the largest real estate brokerage firms in the Turks and Caicos, and will be managed by Wyndham Hotel Management Inc.
Cacique Royale is the Lucayan Indian term for Royal King, chosen for the hotel’s name as a tribute to the island’s natives. The resort’s individual
buildings also will receive Lucayan names including Baqua Cottages, which translates as Sea Cottages, and Nanichi Spa, which means My Heart
Spa.
Construction is under way on both Phase I and Phase II of the project. Phase I is expected to be available for occupancy during the first quarter
of next year.
The resort will feature oceanfront beach cottages and suites located in 14 low-rise buildings situated throughout the resort’s Caribbean
landscaping.
Deluxe studio and one bedroom suites will be offered. Amenities will include two swimming pools; tennis courts; spa and fitness center;
boutique; minimarket; and a full-service restaurant and bar. Guests also will be able to book diving and water sports activities through the resort.
The resort is expected to attract diving enthusiasts eager to explore Grand Turk’s barrier reef system, the third largest in the world, as well as
history buffs interested in the Turks and Caicos Islands.
“The Wyndham Cacique Royale Beach Resort will enhance the Wyndham brand’s strong position in the Caribbean, promote tourism and
introduce thousands of travelers to this wonderful, unspoiled island,” said Peter Strebel, Wyndham Hotels and Resorts president. “Grand Turk
excels in providing beautiful beaches, a historic Caribbean lifestyle and exciting recreational activities including some of the top-rated dive
destinations in the world.”
The Wyndham Cacique Royale Beach Resort will become the Wyndham brand’s 25th facility in the Caribbean and Mexico.
The Turks and Caicos Islands, an increasingly popular Carribbean destination, are located just south of the Bahamas and about 500 miles south
of Miami.
