This Turks and Caicos Resort Just Reopened With a New Spa and a “Sundowner Menu”

By: Caitlin Sullivan - October 12, 2024

Grace Bay. It’s one of those signature Caribbean beaches: the wide, white sand, the satin turquoise water. It’s also home to an enviable collection of resorts, from favorites like The Sands and The Palms to the Regent Grand

You may not have heard of The Somerset on Grace Bay, a 53-unit resort that just reopened for the season. 

The property, set right on Grace Bay, just relaunched with a major new addition: a “reimagined” spa.

The wellness center has been transformed by Spa Tropique, with new interiors and, more importantly, a new menu of treatments. That includes a new “on the rocks” massage featuring the use of hot stones and traditional Swedish massage; and 

If you’re looking to relax in a different way, The Somerset has also debuted another new amenity:  a “sundowner menu,” with special beachfront seating and a “champagne cart.” (There’s sunset yoga, too, if you don’t feel like a cocktail).

Somerset owner Joseph Haviv says the idea is for guests to “walk away from their time with us refreshed.”

“After all,” he says. “That is what vacation is all about.”

So how much will your stay cost?

Right now, a current sale means you can get a one-bedroom townhome for $525 per night, according to the resort’s website. 

For a two-bedroom villa overlooking the resort’s pools, that price goes up to $1,050.
