Discover iconic simplicity. 

Arc onsite event on May 2, 2023 gave all a taste of what Living South Bank truly is

South Bank and Windward put together an intimate and exclusive event to give all a chance to see the progression of South Bank as well as a preview of Arc, the latest addition to South Bank. The anticipated event, which took place on the 2nd of May was very well attended by our local community. 

The iconic Arc, designed by Piero Lissoni, will take a prominent position at the gateway to South Bank, rising from the resort beach and extending the landscape towards the sky. Having attracted the attention of the community since it’s first launch, this was the first time, real estate agents, brokers, government leaders, influencers, key members in the community and others have had the chance to see first-hand and experience what is going to be such a significant architectural piece on Long Bay Beach.  

Hosted in the newly completed Shoal Villa 8, the event gave the attendees a taste and feel of what “Living South Bank” really is. Guests were transported from the villa in small group to have one-on-one sessions with the developers. Both Ivor Stanbrook and Ingo Reckhorn highlighted the notable work that has been implemented in South Bank and look forward to the significant engineering work ahead that will change the coast line. 

“Arc is not just a revolutionary project” Kyle Smith said. The Arc, which comprises of 17 exceptional Arc Sky Villas, triumphantly brings great architecture together with the wonder of nature, creating an exceptional experience on every level. This is truly special. Revolutionary and daring, the team at the Turks & Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty is proud to be working with such vision-driven partners like Windward and South Bank who are transforming the real estate industry in the Turks and Caicos Islands.

Joe Zahm, President and Broker of the Turks & Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty highlighted his devotion and excitement to the project from the very beginning. Turks & Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty, being a key player in the sales of South Bank is proud to have such a great relationship with Windward. With already three reservations on Arc, the Turks & Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty continues to be fully committed to this substantial new development.

HON. E. Jay Saunders, Deputy Premier and Hon Josephine Connolly, Minister of Tourism thanked and recognized the unparalleled work South Bank is doing for the economy of the country.

The evening continued with live music from Janardo Laporte, ourdeuvres and drinks from Grace Bay Club. As the sun set, the attendees had the perfect backdrop behind them.

It was an ideal evening and a true taste to luxurious living. Adding to the South Bank facilities and amenities, Arc will feature a restaurant and bar, gym, two pools, jacuzzi, Arc owner’s lounge, board room, garden and lounging areas, and a boardwalk leading to serviced cabanas on the beach pier.

The Strand Turks & Caicos Construction Update – December 2022

The Strand continues to make great progress not only with their construction milestones but also with sales to date. The Luxury Residences 1, 2, 3 & 7 have really taken a foothold pictured below with full structures in place, Residence 8 is reserved leaving only Residence 9 remaining available.

The Luxury Residences 1, 2, 3 & 7


The Villas – Building A – 5 Villas and Building B – 8 Villas

The Villas Building A is well under way with walls coming out of the ground and swimming pool structures set in place and Building B with foundations complete are not far behind. Those looking for new construction will be pleased at this progress as well as the fact that The Strand amenities will be fully functional at virtually the same time as the villas and residences are completed. All Villas are oceanfront with prices starting at $2,495,000 for a 2-bedroom + Rooftop Terrace and $3,000,000 for a 3-bedroom.

Residences at The Strand are offered “turnkey,” with an optional furniture package, or you are welcome to customize your residence as you wish. All the amenities and operational facilities at The Strand are organized as a private club called The Strand Owners’ Club. Unlike owning a residence at a branded resort, the amenities and services at The Strand are focused on the homeowners, who are Club members, and their families and guests.

True Caribbean oceanfront lifestyle with the added benefit of Owners’ Club amenities and services unlike any other resort in Turks & Caicos Islands. We welcome you to explore more on the link below or contact a listing agent if you have specific questions.

The Strand Turks & Caicos Construction Update – September 2022

The Luxury Residences are steadily changing the landscape of Cooper Jack Bay as the video provided below shows all of the exciting work that has been accomplished thus far.

Luxury R3 has all windows and doors installed, as well as all plumbing and electrical above ceilings, while Luxury R2’s ground floor slab is poured and walls are forming. Meanwhile, Luxury R7’s main pool base and walls are poured, and the main house ground floor slab will be poured this week. Luxury R1 has its retaining wall in place and work has begun to prefabricate the main house columns.

As for The Villas, Villa ‘A’ Building retaining walls are forming. The pools have been excavated and they will be prepping to pour the ground floor. At the same time, they are building out The Strand kitchen and restaurant area. The first of its kind in Provo, the kitchen will have a living green roof that will blend in with the native vegetation above. But they didn’t stop there—the dining experience at The Strand will also be a first-of-its-kind, with the dining tables on the iron shore edge overlooking a sugar sand beach and the Caicos Banks beyond.

Villa ‘B’ Building is set to start, at which time construction of the Main Pool area will begin. A combination of Old World-inspired stone walls, lush greenery, and your own loungers tucked into the limestone will give you the feeling that you have found your own Caribbean sanctuary.

With three of the custom lots reserved for Grand Residences they are beginning to extend utilities to the East of the development in preparation for these unique properties. The Main Parking retaining walls along Cooper Jack Road are up, and the retaining walls around the Clubhouse entry are being formed.
