Gansevoort Turks & Caicos is Open and Ready to Rock
While deals for the Gansevoort South in Miami continue to roll out and NYC's original Gansevoort wages war with The Standard, down in the Turks & Caicos, everything is sunny and shiny. This last weekend, the newest Gansevoort debuted on the island of Providenciales, bringing with it an Exhale Spa and the NY restaurant Bagatelle.
For once, we did not have to deal with construction delays and the usual hotel drama that comes with adapting a New York property, as the Gansevoort Turks & Caicos said they'd be opening in March 2009, and stuck to their word. Of course, it's not a ginormous property to deal with; the G-Vort circles its 91 rooms around the 7,000 square-foot, infinity-edged central pool and its "lounging islands." Although they boast of this pool, fear not for they will have the requisite beach access as well. As the resort sits on Grace Bay, you'll have the choice of a dip in the pool or a frolick at "Bagatelle Beach."
During this soft-opening period, and also since the Caribbean's winter high season is over, standard "junior suites" with kitchenettes and an included breakfast are going for $400, although expect that to shoot back up to $450-500 after grand opening, and rocket to $600 or more during next winter. We can't wait for some reviews to stream in on this property; we're dying to hear more about the pool scene and whether or not Gansevoort fans think it's Gansevoort-y enough; attracting some New Jersey party animals should take care of both.
