Andaz Turks & Caicos at Grace Bay Opens May 2026 — Hyatt’s First Caribbean Andaz Resort

Hyatt Hotels Corporation is set to make Caribbean history this spring with the highly anticipated opening of Andaz Turks & Caicos at Grace Bay, scheduled for May 2026. The launch will mark the Andaz brand’s first entry into the Caribbean region, and one of the most closely watched luxury hotel debuts of the year.

Located directly on Grace Bay Beach — consistently ranked among the world’s finest stretches of sand — the property will offer 59 guest rooms and suites alongside 74 branded residences. The residential component reflects a growing trend in Caribbean luxury development, where branded hotel-residences have become an increasingly sought-after product by high-net-worth buyers and investors alike.

Andaz is Hyatt’s lifestyle-luxury brand, known globally for properties that prioritize local design, curated cultural experiences, and an editorial approach to hospitality. At Turks & Caicos, that ethos translates into interiors inspired by the island’s natural palette of turquoise water, white sand, and native flora. Architecture and design are intended to feel like extensions of the landscape rather than impositions upon it.

The resort’s wellness offering is a centerpiece of the guest experience. Andaz Turks & Caicos will feature a spa with an innovative indoor-outdoor concept, designed to blur the boundary between treatment rooms and the island environment. A garden yoga studio will offer morning sessions framed by sea views, while the broader wellness programming is expected to draw health-focused travelers from North America and Europe.

Dining will be locally rooted and globally informed. Multiple restaurants and lounges are planned, with menus that draw on the culinary traditions of the Turks & Caicos Islands alongside broader Caribbean and international influences. Oceanfront dining will be a key element, with alfresco settings taking advantage of the resort’s prized beachfront position.

The Andaz opening at Grace Bay arrives in the context of an extraordinary hotel development boom across Turks & Caicos. The destination is simultaneously welcoming Kimpton Turks & Caicos, Hotel Indigo Grace Bay, a major expansion at Beaches Turks & Caicos, and the $150-million Treasure Beach Village. Industry analysts describe the island’s current investment momentum as unprecedented.

Tourism officials in the Turks & Caicos Islands have long positioned Grace Bay as a premium destination capable of competing with Maldivian and Tahitian luxury. The arrival of globally recognized brands such as Andaz lends credibility and market reach to that positioning, connecting the island to travelers who might previously have chosen other Hyatt-flagged international resort destinations.

Bookings for Andaz Turks & Caicos at Grace Bay are expected to open in the coming weeks. The resort will be part of World of Hyatt, making it bookable using points and eligible for elite-level member benefits. Rates for the 2026 opening season are anticipated to begin at the upper end of the luxury Caribbean market, consistent with the destination’s premium positioning and the Andaz brand’s global pricing tier.

For travelers planning their 2026 Caribbean itineraries, the Andaz Grace Bay represents a compelling new option: a world-class lifestyle resort on one of the hemisphere’s most celebrated beaches, backed by the service infrastructure of one of hospitality’s leading global brands.
