"Set on the Northwest Point Marine National Park, Amanyara’s airy Indonesian-wood gazebos float on a central reflecting pool with floor-to-ceiling glass walls leading to sunken dining areas; Ocean Villas offer private infinity-edge pools, private gardens, and dockside day beds. Cuisine at The Restaurant emphasizes simplicity and flame-grilled spiny Caribbean lobster, while The Bar is an enormous semi open-air lounge ideal for ending days with cushions and sea views; the resort also offers calm, swimmable beaches and an engaging kids’ Nature Discovery program with sailing, mountain biking, and kitesurfing lessons." - Lauren Burvill

"Launched a few years ago, Amanyara’s Legends Program in Turks & Caicos offers clinics hosted by sports icons throughout the year—the property’s next clinic will be led by pickleball legend Wes Burrows this November—and positions athlete-led training as a standalone transformative experience. I echo spa director Esmerelda Van Der Westhuizen’s point that training with world-class athletes adds an aspirational, emotional and motivational dimension that can be transformative and create indelible memories for both beginners and serious athletes." - Jillian Dara
