| Parrot Cay Resort |
| Providenciales |
This is an island of 1000 lush acres, 50 of which comprise the Parrot Cay resort. The quality of its beaches is unparalleled anywhere, and the thick mangroves on the northern side of the island provide protection and nesting for a wide variety of sea life. Parrot Cay, believed to have originally been named "Pirate Cay”, was in earlier times, frequented by plundering pirates; but is now home to one of the most exclusive and most beautiful five star resorts in the world.
Parrot Cay is a luxury hideaway set on a 1,000-acre island in the Turks and Caicos, British West Indies. Everything at the resort radiates calm serenity - its peaceful setting on the beach, guestrooms furnished with simplicity, full-service spa and relaxing activities such as yoga. With its own three-mile stretch of white sandy beaches, Parrot Cay will satisfy even the most demanding beach lover.
The resort is surrounded by white sand beaches, azure water and coral reefs. The island is rich with marine life and vegetation, including 175 species of birds, cactus groves, mangroves and wetlands. When you walk peacefully around the island, expect to see colorful flamingos and hummingbirds. Vacation activities include tennis, swimming in the 5,500-square-foot infinity edge pool, scuba diving and fishing.
