The much delayed Andaz Turks & Caicos is getting closer to opening. The hotel has now moved forward the date as of which it’s accepting reservations, and we’ve also learned more details about the on-property amenities. Let’s cover all the details, as we’re potentially under five months from the opening…
Andaz Turks & Caicos at Grace Bay details
The Andaz Turks & Caicos at Grace Bay is accepting reservations for stays as of April 1, 2027. This will mark Hyatt’s first hotel in Turks & Caicos, and the first Andaz property in the Caribbean. For that matter, it’s one of the only Andaz properties that’s currently in the pipeline outside of Asia, as the brand has really lost steam.
The 5.5-acre resort will offer four restaurants and bars, three outdoor pools, a spa, a kids club, a fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, and more. The Andaz will be comprised of 59 rooms and 73 branded residences, so at least the hotel portion of the property will be boutique. It’ll be located directly on Grace Bay, known for offering one of the most beautiful stretches of beach in the Caribbean.
As far as the culinary concepts go, the Andaz Turks & Caicos will feature the following:
- Tamarà will be the all-day dining restaurant, described as blending global bistro classics with Caribbean influence, and it’s also going to be an indoor-outdoor oceanfront concept
- Baie will be the poolside restaurant, bar, and lounge, set across two levels, with a casual vibe
- Palmette will be the coffee shop, serving coffee, non-alcoholic drinks, and snacks, throughout the day
- The lobby bar will feature cocktails and light bites, and will be open for most of the day
Runa Spa & Wellness, the spa at the Andaz, will be around 7,000 square feet. It will have five treatment rooms, along with a sauna, cold plunge, relaxation area, and more.
The opening of this resort has been majorly delayed. It was initially announced in 2018 with a 2021 opening, but the timeline slipped by six years, presumably due to a combination of the pandemic, plus… well, how hotel construction projects often work out. Hopefully there are no additional delays beyond the current planned spring 2027 opening.
Andaz Turks & Caicos rates & points requirements
With the Andaz Turks & Caicos at Grace Bay bookable, what are rates like? For those redeeming points, this is a Category 8 World of Hyatt property, meaning a free night redemption in a standard room costs 35,000-75,000 points per night.
World of Hyatt’s new award chart sure makes top end redemptions expensive, unfortunately! As of now the hotel is primarily bookable between April and November of 2027, so this doesn’t really cover peak season. For most dates, I currently see rates of either 35,000 points, 45,000 points, or 55,000 points per night. So value here is highly dependent on which of those rates you can find.
When it comes to cash rates, those currently start at around $900-1,300 per night, and that depends on when you’re staying. That’s inclusive of the service charge, but exclusive of the taxes.
If you are looking to book a cash stay here, I’d recommend doing so through the Hyatt Privé program, which offers extra perks like room upgrades, complimentary breakfast, and a hotel credit. Ford and his team are happy to help with these requests, and can be reached at [email protected].
I suppose good options on Grace Bay are limited, and this hotel is boutique. But at these rates, they better offer something significantly better than the typical Andaz experience, in my opinion.
I’m looking forward to this new Turks & Caicos property!
Turks & Caicos is absolutely beautiful, and it’s an easy getaway from the United States, given how close it is to Florida. Historically, the country hasn’t had that many points hotels, though that’s slowly starting to change.
Several years back, we saw the opening of the Ritz-Carlton Turks & Caicos. It has an amazing location on Grace Bay and the grounds of the property are beautiful, but it otherwise doesn’t feel very luxurious, and lacks personality.
So it’ll be nice to have another points property, and I look forward to learning more about the Andaz. Maybe I’m overly optimistic, but I think the Andaz might just end up offering a better experience than the Ritz-Carlton, at least based on the design renderings, and also the more boutique scale of the property. Andaz really is quite an inconsistent brand.
I of course should acknowledge that many people are understandably frustrated by the way that Grace Bay has developed over the years, given all the huge concrete towers that have taken shape along the beach. It has definitely lost its charm a bit, though the beach is still gorgeous.
Even beyond Grace Bay, we’re seeing some other great new options in Turks & Caicos. In 2025, we saw the opening of Salterra Turks & Caicos, a Marriott Luxury Collection property. This is great for those who want a bit more secluded of a trip, since South Caicos Island is a bit less crowded than the area around Providenciales. This is also where Sailrock Resort is located, which is an independent hotel affiliated with Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH).
There’s also a Waldorf Astoria Turks & Caicos planned for a 2028 opening, located on Dellis Cay, a nearby island that’s not as developed, which can be reached by a 25-minute boat transfer from Providenciales. That should also be a great option, especially with how the Waldorf Astoria portfolio is developing. However, don’t count on that timeline sticking either.
Bottom line
The Andaz Turks & Caicos is accepting reservations for stays as of April 2027, and it will be located on the famous Grace Bay. The property will have just 59 hotel rooms, in addition to residences, so I like how it’s on a smaller scale than some other properties.
This should be a very nice addition to the Caribbean points hotel market. Hopefully we don’t see any additional delays with the opening…
