Idyllic Amanyara is located on the quiet side of Providenciales in the Turks and Caicos Islands in the Caribbean. In the language of the Arawak Amerindians, 'Amanyara' translates into 'Peaceful Place', an apt name for a resort with uninterrupted views of the stunning turquoise waters and swathes of white sand. The beach is 800 metres long and open to the elements, perfect for guests who want to revel in the surrounding aquatic beauty, beachcombing, sunbathing and swimming. Fortunate guests can witness the annual migration of humpback whales from February to April, a truly magnificent sight to behold. The hotel features forty timber-shingled guest Pavilions, and a number of Aman Villas with different views. The Villas strive to combine outdoor and indoor living, each with a black-edged infinity pool.

Since the resort's inception in 2006, Amanyara has been dedicated to protecting the island's indigenous creatures and restoring the coral reefs. This eco-friendly attitude is inclusive for guests, who can embark upon a beach walk or an eco-hike through the dry tropical forest, or learn from a nature-themed presentation from the resort's onsite naturalist. Amanyara works alongside Sustainable Oceans International, an Australian company committed to the restoration and enhancement of marine habitats, which guests can explore while diving or snorkelling.

There is an emphasis on dining à-la-carte; the open setting of the restaurant allows guests to enjoy the surrounding lush greenery and ocean vistas. The menu is based on freshly-caught seafood accompanied with organic produce from the resort's aquaponic vegetable garden. A meticulously-prepared degustation menu is refreshed daily, with exotic dishes such as grilled Caribbean lobster and conch salad. For a more intimate sojourn, enjoy a starlit dinner in a secluded cove, with a discreet butler on hand to cater to your every whim.

Set around a tranquil pond, the Amanyara Spa is in a location designed to inspire. Experience a wealth of benefits, physiological and mental alike, following a spa treatment. Intuitive therapists will anticipate any problem areas; skin can be revitalised with a sun salutation treatment, using indigenous ingredients such as local coconut oil and sea salt. If you would like something more interactive, bask in profound restoration during a guided yoga and guided breathing session, or a tailored holistic Pilates session.
