The newest residential hotel in Turks and Caicos has just released another sneak peek.

Rock House, the first cliffside property in development on Providenciales’ north shore, just released renderings of a new collection of homes with the property: the Hilltop Condos.

The project is the latest for Grace Bay Resorts.

The new condos will overlook the main resort and be set among lush vegetation, with ancient trees that date back hundreds of years.

The Hilltop Condos will feature three two-story buildings with a mix of one- and two-bedroom units on the first level and full floor penthouses with views of the sea directly above. 

The focal point of the Hilltop Condos will be a quarry pool that will be carved directly out of the limestone cliffs.

They feature spa-like outdoor shower gardens and feature walls made of local limestone as well as 13-foot vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass windows and doors and private pools. 

Amenities will include The Beach Club, with 100-foot infinity fool that will appear to reach the water; a private beach sandwiched between crystal-clear waters and limestone cliff and a signature restaurant. 

Rock House is set to break ground later this year with the property officially opening to guests in 2020.
