Hilton projected a 2030 opening for Waldorf Astoria Turks and Caicos Dellis Cay, a project first announced in April 2025 with a 2028 target. The company also projected a 2030 opening for AMARIS Grace Bay Turks and Caicos, LXR Hotels & Resorts.
Why it matters
The update shows the timeline for two major luxury hotel projects in the Turks and Caicos Islands has moved to 2030. Hilton's Caribbean portfolio now exceeds 100 open and planned hotels, underscoring the company's expanding footprint in the region.
The Dellis Cay hotel component will have 62 rooms and suites, including 10 beachfront bungalows with private terraces and plunge pools, across more than three miles of beachfront. Hilton's update does not explain the shift from the earlier 2028 target.
