Tests are also available to non-guests for a $50 per person fee, with appointments required. All three Hartling Group properties are “working in collaboration” with Flamingo Pharmacy, which oversees testing operations, said officials in a statement.
“The Hartling Group has worked closely with the government of the Turks and Caicos Islands and other private sector partners to ensure a smooth roll out,” said company officials in a statement. The Turks and Caicos “has well above the capacity to meet the current testing load for visitors and residents alike,” officials added.
Turks and Caicos requires travelers to provide proof of a negative COVID-19 PCR test results within five days of arrival under its TCI Assured travel program. The Turks and Caicos government also requires visitors to obtain travel insurance covering COVID-19 related medical treatment, quarantine costs and medical evacuation costs.
