#TurksandCaicos, February 11, 2023 – “TCI is sprouting luxury like daffodils in Spring,” says Fodor’s Travel, an online travel magazine with hotly anticipated vacation guides, as it presents the Turks and Caicos as a destination to watch going forward.

Freelance Writer Sheryl Nance-Nash who has written for the BBC, New York Times and more says “while the masses were running to Jamaica and the Dominican Republic, TCI was quietly handling its business.”

In a comprehensive article that focuses not only on the TCIs beaches but the people and its experiences as well, Nash dives into the island, scenery and upgrades over the past several years warning travellers that if they haven’t touched its shores in a while, they are in for a luxurious surprise.

Some of the places she listed as doing their part to sharpen the island’s competitive edge are:

• The all-new Rock House Hotel
• MRVL Spa, (you may remember this company, asked the government for permission to bring in their special scorpions for their top-secret beauty recipes)
• The Terrace on Grace Bay
• Noah’s Ark
• The Ritz Carlton
• Onda Water Sports
• Ocean Club Resorts
• Ambergris Cay
• BLT Steak and;
• Beach Enclave, Grace Bay

Seemingly written from the perspective of a lover of the TCI, the article is detailed and full of excitement for the country, and even for projects that haven’t begun yet, including the new South Bank Residences and Resort, Nash ended with:

“The spotlight is on Turks and Caicos.  It’s distinguishing itself from other Caribbean islands, not only for its lack of crowds but as the go-to locale for luxury, privacy (if you want), and plenty of places to parade around.”
