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.
Maroma, A Belmond Hotel
About 30 minutes from Cancun Airport; about 20 minutes to Playa del Carmen; about 1 hour to Tulum.
Beach sits by the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, the world's second-largest coral system.
Event venues roughly 40-250; hotel buyouts possible.
Temazcal and Guerlain rituals differentiate versus generic Riviera spas.
