The newest Relais & Chateaux resort in the Caribbean is in Turks and Caicos. 

The Meridian Club Pine Cay, long one of the region’s top private-island resorts, has officially joined the culinary-focused hotel collection. 

The 21-key hotel has 13 residences and eight villas on a private 800-acre island a short trip from Providenciales. 

The resort’s culinary program is led by Costa Rican Chef Andres Melendez.

There are now seven Relais & Chateaux resorts in the wider Caribbean, including properties in Dominica, Grenada, Anguilla, St Barth, The Bahamas, the Dominican Republic.

The most recent Relais & Chateaux Caribbean addition had been Tiamo, a resort on Andros Island in The Bahamas.

“A natural fit for the Relais & Châteaux family, The Meridian Club Pine Cay champion’s the brand’s core pillars of sustainability and biodiversity, through its own proactive ecological initiatives, including rainwater harvesting, electric transportation and the usage of solar panels,” the resort said in a statement.
