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.
China World Summit Wing
- Compare the flexible direct member rate with an eligible luxury-advisor booking for breakfast, credit, and upgrade consideration.
- Confirm current room configurations, seasonal closures, and transfer requirements directly with the property.
- The best category is usually determined by outlook, privacy, and location rather than square metres alone.
