New Turks and Caicos Resort Readies for Fall Debut 

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - July 27, 2024 - 10:08 am

Turks and Caicos’ most-anticipated opening of 2024 is set for this fall: the debut of The Strand, Providenciales’ newest residential resort. 

The boutique property has already tapped a new general manager and hospitality manager — a husband-and-wife team. 

The Strand has named Frits Hannenberg its new general manager, with Jenny Hannenberg-Feig serving as hospitality manager. 

Hannenberg was most recently the managing director of The Abaco Club in South Abaco. His previous stops have included stints in Mustique, The Shore Club Turk sand Caicos and a resort in Mauritius. 

“We’re thrilled to welcome Frits and Jenny to The Strand’s opening team,” said John Fair, managing director of The Strand. “Not only are they a powerful hospitality duo and husband and wife team with unmatched expertise in ultra-luxury resorts on the island and throughout the region, but they bring a keen dedication to fostering a welcoming and personalized community for our guests and homeowners, which will further set The Strand apart upon opening this fall.”

The property has not yet announced a specific opening date. It’s part of what should be an exciting next few quarters for Turks and Caicos, with the early 2025 debut set for South Caicos’ new Salterra resort.
