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.
Ocean House
- All-inclusive estate rates include all gourmet meals, sommelier pairings, and seasonal outdoor estate activities.
- Book key culinary workshops, fly-fishing guides, and spa appointments when confirming your room reservation.
- Private airport transfers from regional airfields can be coordinated directly with the concierge desk.
