The Ins and Outs of The Veranda’s Design

When visiting the Caribbean paradise of Providenciales, one may be surprised to find intriguing architecture and styles reminiscent of the northeast United States. This unusual and stunning beauty sets The Veranda Resort & Residences apart.

The property's architecture firm envisioned both the architecture and interior décor for the 5-star property. They sought to create something traditional and sophisticated with modern and Caribbean design aesthetic. Their inspirations ran the gamut from a rich, antique Haitian table to the broad side of a stunning yacht moored at a local port.

The result is the distinctively delightful architecture of The Veranda, which stands far apart from the common resort styles seen across the Caribbean.

The beauty of the property is not just façade deep, though. Included in the unit prices, which range from $400,000 to $3.9 million, are turnkey furnishing packages. Main color themes revolve around modern Caribbean color schemes like warm, bright tones intertwined with breezy hues. Guests will also discover hand-made throw pillows reflecting the natural elements of the nearby azure sea.

In addition to the tailored furnishings, the rooms are adorned with ornate pieces of local artwork. Enter the sleek bathrooms, and you will find modern Kohler fixtures along with spacious, contemporary showers. This creates a genuine Turks and Caicos experience in a modern, well-appointed setting.

Other custom furnishing options available to owners include flat screen TVs, fine linens, the convenience of Wi-Fi, solid granite countertops, sleek stainless steel appliances and more. In addition to these amenities, Grace Bay Resorts, the management company behind world-renowned Grace Bay Club, will cater to the resident’s and guests’ every whim.

Faez Limited, a Turks and Caicos-registered company that acquired the partially completed Veranda Resort and Residences on Grace Bay, is pleased to announce that the 10-acre site is on schedule to open Thanksgiving 2009.

The group upgraded every element of the resort’s interiors, furnishings, common areas and landscaping. It has also prioritized the design and construction of a unique Asian-themed spa and the 200-seat signature beachfront restaurant, bar and grill that will be the centerpiece of the property. These amenities will blend in with The Veranda’s New-England-seaside-village architectural style, unique to the Caribbean.

The project is being built under a construction management contract with local TCI firm Fountainhead Construction whose extensive expertise includes building Donna Karen’s home on Parrott Cay.
