The Owners
Dan Raynes and Rahul Lakhani have been close friends for over three decades, with a special bond to Providenciales, Turks and Caicos Islands. Rahul has made the island his home for nearly a quarter-century, establishing himself as a notable figure. Known as the builder and founder of the island's sole Irish bar, Danny Buoy's, Rahul has significantly shaped its social landscape.
Their narrative intertwines with the enchantment of Grace Bay, where Dan's passion for running flourished amidst the pristine coastline. Through numerous adventures and shared experiences, their friendship flourished amidst the island's natural beauty.
Although Rahul relocated to Portugal in 2023, the allure of Providenciales remained strong for both. Recognizing their mutual love for the island, they decided to invest together in a property, envisioning it not only as their personal retreat but also as an opportunity for others to savor the island's allure through rentals. Their journey embodies a profound affection for Providenciales and a longing to share its splendors with the wider world.
