Along the Northwest Point on Provindenciales in the Turks and Caicos Islands resides the Amanyara Resort – a popular yet private getaway spot that shines above the majority of Caribbean vacation villas with its extravagant design, serene environment, and hospitable plus professional staff.
Its name Amanyara is derived from the following two terms, namely: “Aman”, which is Sanskrit for “peace”, and “yara”, an Arawak Amerindians term for “place”. Considering its location, which is far from the developed areas at the eastern parts of the island, it’s not difficult to imagine how peaceful and private the place truly is.
Upon arrival, guests will make their way into the resort through a large and beautifully designed reception pavilion, which features a grand formal pool surrounded by trees. On one side of the pool is the restaurant and bar, while on the other side is the library and boutique.
The pleasant experience of having a few drinks and eating scrumptious food at the bar and restaurant is further enhanced with an open view of the vast, seemingly endless, body of ocean water. Moreover, sunlight light reflecting upon the adjacent pool coupled with the sounds from the sea further enhances the serenity of the surrounding environment.
Unlike other business establishments and Caribbean vacation villas within the Turks and Caicos Islands, the Amanyara Resort features two types of pavilions – in total, there are forty of these charming little buildings. First and foremost, we have the ocean pavilions, which are elevated at around seventeen feet above the waterline. Additionally, it features a rock pathway leading out the seafront, allowing guests to swim whenever desired.
The other type is the pond pavilion – as its name indicates, it’s located on the edge of the ponds within the resort. Each structure features a timber sundeck that extends over the pond, allowing visitors to catch better glimpses of the water below.
A notable fact about this resort is the ongoing construction of villas. Every bedroom pavilion bears strong resemblance to the other pavilions within Amanyara, but also has a few distinguishing features which sets it apart from its counterparts and even other Caribbean vacation villas on the Turks and Caicos Islands.
First off, the bedroom pavilions have slightly larger bathrooms plus dressing areas. In addition to this, there’s a fully-equipped kitchen as well, and even the inclusion of private staff ready to do their jobs and obey commands given by the guests.
Lastly, there are a variety of watersports vacationists may participate in, tennis courts for friendly competition amongst vacationers, and a variety of other amenities to keep everyone entertained.
