More on the new hotel from the press release:

[The hotel] will feature Bagatelle Bistrot and Beach Club as well as a beachfront Exhale Spa at its new Turks & Caicos location. Bagatelle Bistrot by The ONE Group will serve as the property's gourmet dining destination along with Bagatelle Beach Club, a day and night beach bar concept. Exhale Spa will bring unique spa treatments, its trademark Core Fusion(TM) classes and innovative training methods to the resort. Fusing Caribbean and contemporary styles, the resort will feature a 7,000 square foot infinity edge pool that includes "lounging islands" which appear to float on the water. By day, these islands can be used for sunning and relaxing and by night, will serve as intimate, candle-lit dining areas.

Since the new Gansevoort Turks & Caicos will obviously not be an all-inclusive island resort, we'd guess that tacking on an extra $200-300 per day for eating at their restaurant and drinking at their bar is not unreasonable. When rates dip in the summer to something more affordable, say $150 a night, we imagine they may even have Midwestern families floating in that swanky infinity pool; it's difficult to stay hip year-round, you know.
