The Ocean Club Resorts in Turks and Caicos are set to relaunch in time for the destination’s reopening for tourism.

The dual-resort portfolio on Grace Bay Beach will reopen July 22, Caribbean Journal has learned. 

That means both the Ocean Club and Ocean Club West properties, both of which are comprised entirely of suites. 

“Ocean Club Resorts has long held a commitment to maintaining a safe and healthy environment for our guests and staff,” said Ocean Club Resorts Managing Director, Wilbert Mason. “Our team has taken the necessary steps toward enhancing cleaning measures and implementing new protocols that adhere to social distancing without taking away from the overall guest experience. We look forward to our guests returning and have put in place new safety measures in order to offer a secure yet still unforgettable stay in a post-COVID-19 travel climate.”

The new health and safety protocols range from modifying all public spaces for social distancing to increased sanitization frequency of public spaces and the use of new anti-viral cleaning products, among others.
