Where to Invest<br />
Each island in the <strong>Turks</strong> & <strong>Caicos</strong> has an individual<br />
charm, appealing to those who want the comfort and<br />
convenience of a more cosmopolitan setting, to others<br />
who envision their island getaway as remote and pristine.<br />
All share the bountiful sunny days, turquoise seascapes<br />
and cooling tradewinds that make living in the <strong>Islands</strong> so<br />
enjoyable.<br />
Providenciales is by far the most developed of the<br />
<strong>Islands</strong> and, as such, has been the focus of most real estate<br />
activity. Available is a wide variety of property, including<br />
residential villas and homes, resort condominiums, townhomes,<br />
apartments, commercial businesses and vacant<br />
land.<br />
Providenciales can be loosely divided into various<br />
“neighborhoods.” Leeward is a community on the<br />
northeast tip bordered by the Leeward-Going-Through<br />
Channel connecting the north and south sides of<br />
Providenciales. Leeward property includes a mix of villas,<br />
homes, condominiums and waterfront estates in such<br />
developments as Blue Cay <strong>Estate</strong>s, Blue Haven Resort &<br />
Marina, Provo Golf Course, and Atrium Resort.<br />
Grace Bay, often termed the “Gold Coast,” boasts<br />
what international travel magazine surveys consistently<br />
rate among the world’s best beaches. It is home to the<br />
majority of the resort hotels and condominiums. While<br />
the first decade of the millennium saw a boom in construction<br />
of beachfront condominiums here, with a tremendous<br />
pre-sales and after-sales market, development is evolving<br />
with the addition of “back from the beach” properties,<br />
retail/office plazas, new restaurants, and casinos.<br />
With completion of The Shore Club on Long Bay<br />
luxury condo and villa resort community, development<br />
has sky-rocketed in the area, anchored by the new South<br />
Bank project and the most costly beachfront villas on the<br />
island. Located on Provo’s southeast shore, the residential<br />
subdivision of Long Bay Hills offers some of the most<br />
affordable prices and among the best southern island<br />
views.<br />
Located between Grace Bay and Turtle Cove, The<br />
Bight is home to the sprawling Beaches <strong>Turks</strong> & <strong>Caicos</strong><br />
Resort & Spa and other beachfront hotels. Several condominium<br />
developments line the beautiful beach that is an<br />
extension of Grace Bay, including Wymara Resort <strong>Turks</strong><br />
+ <strong>Caicos</strong>, West Bay Club, and Windsong.<br />
Turtle Cove was the site of Provo’s first hotel and<br />
many of its first homes. The beach is prime, with excellent<br />
snorkeling, and the area boasts close proximity to restaurants,<br />
watersports and Turtle Cove Marina. Beachfront<br />
villa and condominium and townhome projects are now<br />
here, including The Enclave luxury villas, the Yacht Club,<br />
La Vista Azul, Queen Angel, and Seaflowers.<br />
Located in the center of Provo’s south shore,<br />
Discovery Bay is the entrance to a 2.5 mile, man-made<br />
canal system. This peaceful residential area offers access<br />
to the ocean at a reasonable price.<br />
Turtle Tail is a 3.5 mile peninsula on the south-central<br />
shore, bounded on the north by Juba Salina and on<br />
the south by the open sea. Turtle Tail provides dramatic<br />
views of the <strong>Caicos</strong> Banks and Five Cays, small coves with<br />
private beaches and fabulous hilltop properties.<br />
Located on Provo’s southwest shore, Cooper Jack is<br />
quite popular due to the prevailing breezes, privacy and<br />
magnificent sunsets. Waterfront is primarily ironshore,<br />
with some sandy swimming areas. The Strand luxury residential<br />
resort community is under construction here.<br />
The highest point on Provo, the exclusive Blue<br />
Mountain settlement, comprises an elevated area between<br />
Turtle Cove and Thompson Cove. Nearby Thompson<br />
Cove is a 130-acre planned community — quiet, secluded<br />
and entirely composed of fine homes and estates. There<br />
is dock space within a private, protected canal and beach<br />
access.<br />
On the southwest tip of Provo, a long peninsula separates<br />
Chalk Sound, a shallow inland waterway, and the<br />
Atlantic Ocean. The ocean side at Sapodilla Bay, Taylor<br />
Bay and Silly Creek offers unparalleled sunsets, while<br />
Chalk Sound displays incandescent blue waters dotted<br />
with hundreds of tiny cays. The area is strictly residential<br />
and boasts the upscale developments of Harbour Gates,<br />
Ocean Point, Sunset Bay, and Silly Creek <strong>Estate</strong>s. Homes<br />
tend to be luxury estates. Homes and lots are also being<br />
sold to the southwest.<br />
The far northwest tip of Providenciales is currently<br />
home to the North West Point Resort and the exclusive<br />
Amanyara. As well, the area is beginning to evolve from<br />
homesites along Millennium Highway to beachfront land<br />
sales along the north shore.<br />
There is a variety of commercial properties for sale,<br />
including existing businesses and revenue properties. They<br />
are scattered across the island, with prime sites including<br />
along Leeward Highway, in Grace Bay and within the<br />
Industrial Park.<br />
Spread out like jewels connecting Providenciales and<br />
North <strong>Caicos</strong> are the <strong>Caicos</strong> Cays—Pine Cay, Dellis Cay,<br />
and Parrot Cay. Pine Cay boasts private homes that were<br />
among the country’s first, some are now on the resale market,<br />
along with a select number of lots. Parrot Cay is a<br />
getaway for the rich and famous, and the multi-million<br />
dollar villas in this island paradise exude sophisticated<br />
simplicity.<br />
While Providenciales is all about tourism and development,<br />
the country’s other islands reflect the fascinating<br />
history that shaped them. The <strong>Turks</strong> <strong>Islands</strong>—Grand<br />
Turk and Salt Cay—have a heritage dating back to the<br />
salt trade and its Bermudian influence is strongly felt. The<br />
<strong>Caicos</strong> <strong>Islands</strong> were shaped by the Loyalist cotton plan-<br />
