Good to Know
Amanyara
- The resort faces a protected marine reserve, not Grace Bay — it's quieter and more remote than most Providenciales hotels, which is either the appeal or the drawback depending on what you want.
- About 20 minutes from Providenciales International Airport.
- Snorkelling directly off the property's reef is genuinely good, not just a marketing claim — the reserve status protects it.
Angama Mara
- All-inclusive safari rates include twice-daily game drives, all gourmet meals, and premier cellar beverages.
- Pack neutral khaki, beige, and olive clothing for open-vehicle game drives and bush walks.
- Direct bush airstrip charter flights can be coordinated directly with the lodge hospitality team.
