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.
The Sagamore Resort
- Private transfers (via private vehicle, helicopter, or boat) coordinate directly with resort operations.
- Bespoke guided cultural excursions, private tastings, and nature tours can be pre-arranged with the concierge.
- Pack comfortable luxury travel attire and appropriate footwear for local exploration.
