BETHESDA, Md., March 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Luxury Collection, part of Marriott Bonvoy's portfolio of over 30 extraordinary hotel brands, today announces the grand opening of Salterra, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Turks & Caicos, the brand's first property in the Turks and Caicos Islands. Situated on the idyllic shores of South Caicos Island, this luxurious haven invites guests to immerse themselves in the natural beauty, world-class watersports, exquisite dining, and cultural experiences that define the destination.
"The Luxury Collection embodies the art of curation, bringing together an exceptional portfolio of unique hotels in some of the world's most captivating and unexpected destinations," says Bruce Rohr, Vice President and Global Brand Leader, The Luxury Collection.

With its nature-inspired design, elevated culinary experiences, and world-class eco-adventures, this resort epitomizes the brand's destination-first philosophy, where every property reflects the soul of its locale and acts as a portal to authentic cultural discovery."
A Sanctuary Shaped by the ElementsDesigned by the acclaimed Edge of Architecture firm, led by 2020 Gold Key Awards Designer of the Year Malcolm Berg, the resort's architecture reflects the essence of South Caicos' natural landscapes. The resort's sophisticated design is inspired by the island's famed salt flats and tropical allure with cerulean, white, and rusty hues. The resort boasts 100 well-appointed guest rooms and suites crafted with regionally sourced materials, such as native wood, coral stone, and sisal, to create a sense of tranquility while enhancing the connection to the natural surroundings. The airiness of the accommodations is underscored by floor-to-ceiling windows and expansive balconies, which bring in abundant natural light and breathtaking seascape views, resulting in a harmonious design that integrates seamlessly with the island's environment.
Wellness in Harmony with NatureAt the heart of the resort lies The Spa at Salterra, a sanctuary dedicated to enhancing well-being and rejuvenation. With eight luxurious treatment rooms, including two couple suites, and a carefully curated selection of world-class treatments designed to restore balance, the spa offers a tropical refuge where guests can revitalize both their body and mind. Inspired by the resort's oceanic setting, the spa features a multisensory aqua thermal circuit with a salt sauna, steam room, aloe bar, and a rejuvenating hammam, harnessing the healing effects of water to wash away stress and fatigue. Whether guests choose to unwind in the outdoor lounge, soak in the hot tub, or enjoy the social pool, the spa offers an oasis for guests to immerse themselves in the present moment.
Epicurean JourneysEvery meal at Salterra, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Turks & Caicos is an exploration of flavor, culture, and local ingredients. The resort offers six distinctive dining experiences, each showcasing the island's rich culinary heritage. At the chic lobby bar Sisal, guests will discover the bounty of the region with ever-changing menus, featuring bites and cocktails made with fresh, seasonal local ingredients. After a day of exploring the island, guests can unwind with Latin-inspired cuisine and expert mixology set against the stunning backdrop of the resort's private beach at Cobo Bar & Grill, the resort's waterfront dining destination. The resort's signature restaurant, Brine, offers an exquisite chef's tasting menu, expertly paired with an extensive wine selection. The restaurant also offers a signature upon request Epicurean Moment, that consists of a 7-course menu that evolves with the seasons, inspired by a prized ingredient deeply rooted in the region's history: salt, often referred to as "white gold." Regatta offers a laidback coastal ambiance where guests can enjoy British Caribbean fusion cuisine with golden hour views from the second-story terrace. For casual fare, Flamingo Café offers homemade gelato, local fruit smoothies, and crafted espresso, while Jack & Jenny's, the resort's food truck, serves a rotating menu of street food dishes infused with local influences.
World-Class Eco-ExperiencesThe resort sits by an expansive stretch of untouched white-sand beaches and the protected Admiral Cockburn Land & Sea National Park, offering a diverse array of adventures in unadulterated nature for every type of traveler. From watersports like kayaking and bone fishing to seasonal whale watching, guests can discover the natural wonders of South Caicos. The crystalline, calm waters of South Caicos provide the optimal conditions for diving and snorkeling, offering opportunities for close encounters with indigenous marine life in their aquatic sanctuary. Guests can join guided tours to explore local wildlife, uninhabited islands, and natural salt ponds, offering a rich immersive experience that sparks curiosity for travelers of all ages. The resort also presents a Salt Discovery Experience, part of the brand's signature Destination Discovery offerings, where guests can journey through the storied salinas and learn about the salt trade heritage, while encountering unique wildlife that thrives in this ecosystem. To foster a deeper connection with the surrounding environment, the resort also offers coral reef restoration workshops in partnership with the South Caicos Coral Reef Consortium, offering guests an opportunity to leave the destination even better than they found it.
"Salterra, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Turks & Caicos is more than just a resort; it's a destination where elegance and the spirit of South Caicos intertwine," Brian King, President of Marriott International's Caribbean and Latin America (CALA) region, said. "We are committed to offering guests a journey that celebrates the island's natural beauty and cultural heritage while offering the unmatched luxury and service synonymous with The Luxury Collection."
Commitment to SustainabilityThe resort's commitment to sustainability goes beyond eco-friendly amenities — it's a core part of the resort's philosophy. The resort harnesses the abundant sunlight of South Caicos to power its operations, driving efforts to meet over half of the resort's energy needs through renewable sources. The industrial composting system at Salterra, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Turks & Caicos processes food waste, plants, and paper, enriching the surrounding soil and promoting sustainable nutrient reuse. Recognizing the island's water limitations, the resort collects and desalinates seawater for drinking and harvests rainwater for irrigation. In addition, the resort has eliminated the use of single-use plastic bottles in all guest rooms, providing filtered water dispensers to encourage responsible hydration. The resort is committed to marine preservation through the Coral Reef Adoption Program. This initiative, developed in partnership with the School for Field Studies (SFS), the Turks & Caicos Reef Fund, and the Reef Institute, invites guests to sponsor segments of the reef, directly contributing to the preservation of vital ecosystems. These sustainable programs are built to aid in restoration efforts for local coral reefs, birds, and bonefish populations, as well as to develop forward-thinking solutions to sustainability challenges and preserve the destination's natural beauty for future generations.
"This resort is a destination where luxury and sustainability come together in an extraordinary setting," said Michael Tibbets, Managing Director of Salterra, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Turks & Caicos. "South Caicos, with its untouched beaches and rich cultural heritage, offers a rare opportunity to reconnect with nature while indulging in the finest experiences the Caribbean has to offer."

Osprey Packs's Newest Bike Collection Creates Carry Solutions for Every Rider
New Syncro, Raptor / Raven LT and Berm models join the category for spring 2026 CORTEZ, Colo., Aug. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Osprey Packs, a leader in creating top-quality, high-performance innovative carry solutions, is equipping more riders with their ideal pack system. The brand's spring 2026 collection offers something for every genre biker, from feature-rich powerhouses that prioritize technical performance to straightforward, reliable packs that cater to first-ride adventures. SyncroFor advanced riders who push the distance and brave the elements, Osprey's reimagined Syncro meets the demands of those who rely on feature-rich, technical carry solutions. The unisex series uses AirSpeed™ suspension with a tensioned mesh backpanel for ultimate airflow, while an adjustable torso length with five inches of adjustment enables a more custom fit. Bikers can rely on a stable, balanced ride with the Syncro, as the pack's winged shoulder straps, bike-specific yoke and updated hipbelt work together to optimize in-motion carry. Additionally, the stowable raincover and PFAS-free DWR treatment offer dependable weather protection, so it's always the right "riding conditions." The Syncro series includes the Syncro 5 (MSRP $160), Syncro 12 (MSRP $180) and Syncro 20 (MSRP $195). Raptor I Raven LTThe all-new Raptor | Raven LT (MSRP $140) is built for rowdy, technical rides over rough terrain. Ideal for bikers who prioritize stability and want to carry the essentials without added bulk, Raptor | Raven LT delivers technical, yet efficient performance. While this new series maintains the same harness system as the fully featured Raptor | Raven family, streamlined updates include a hipbelt with ventilated wings and simplified pocket organization to create an overall lighter and minimalistic offering. The men's-specific Raptor LT and women's-specific Raven LT are both available in a 12-liter volume, and made with bluesign® approved, 100% recycled materials. BermAn easy entry into Osprey bike hydration, the all-new Berm is a fun and approachable offering for newer riders. Designed with a unisex fit and simplified feature set, Berm delivers a streamlined, ergonomic construction that keeps hydration close, essentials secure and comfort at an all-time high. Berm is designed with Osprey's signature AirScape™ backpanel to enhance ventilation, as well as a separate compartment with an easy-access zipper that stores an included Hydraulics reservoir. Additional features include a magnet bite valve attachment, zippered pockets for small essentials, blinking light attachment (blinking light not included) and built-in reflectivity. Available in four muted colorways inspired by the trails, the Berm series includes the Berm 2 (MSRP $75), Berm 4 (MSRP $85), Berm 8 (MSRP $95) and Berm 12 (MSRP $115). Seral I SavuRounding out Osprey's 2026 bike collection, the updated Seral | Savu offers an off-back option for mountain bike minimalists. Ideal for shorter trips or those who ride with lighter loads, the lumbar hydration packs provide just enough carry for a few essentials and water. Osprey's bike-specific, angled hipbelt and compression straps make the Seral | Savu a stable and comfortable option for those who prefer the simplicity and freedom of a lumbar pack instead of an over-the-shoulder model. The Seral 4 (MSRP $95) and Seral 7 (MSRP $115) include a Hydraulics LS 1.5 L lumbar reservoir, while the Savu 2 (MSRP $60), Savu 5 (MSRP $70) and Savu 5 EF (MSRP $70) offer balanced single or double bottle carry that can be compressed without water for shorter rides. Osprey's spring 2026 collection, including the new bike models, will be available in February 2026 at and at specialty retailers in over 60 countries worldwide.
