Caribbean Resort Rebrands to Wymara Resort and Villas
A contemporary Caribbean resort debuts a new independent brand! Gansevoort Turks and Caicos has officially gone by the wayside, and the luxury beachfront resort has re-branded to Wymara Resort and Villas. The resort and villas remain fully owned and managed by the original developers of the resort, Wymara Ltd., and guests will enjoy a continuation of the warm hospitality, attentive service and amenities the resort is known for.
Rumors had been swirling for some time that the owners were not happy with the management contract and dwindling reputation of the Gansevoort brand and looking to start fresh. This announcement may come as come as surprise for many, but with the brand updates, the resort assures it will continue to deliver world-class hospitality.
“As we enter 2019 with the new Villas and the 10th anniversary of the resort, we took the opportunity to create a fresh, comprehensive new independent identity,” said Rob Ayer and Bruce Maclaren, co-developers and owners, Wymara Ltd. “We are committed to elevating the guest experience with contemporary elegance in all design aspects, quality and service; which will redefine Caribbean Luxury.”
The resort’s ideal location on the world-renowned Grace Bay Beach, recognized as “Best Beach” by Condé Nast Traveler magazine and “Best Beach in the World” by TripAdvisor, invites guests to enjoy the crystal-clear turquoise waters and pristine white sand beaches of Providenciales. 
“Our tenured executive team of hospitality experts truly care about curating the most enjoyable and memorable stays for each individual guest,” says Grant Friedman, CEO and managing director of Wymara Ltd., who has been managing the property since its opening 10 years ago. “We look forward to welcoming guests to experience our new brand that celebrates our award-winning resort, Villas and team.”
