What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
Here, on a long stretch of beach for which the word ‘idyllic’ seems somehow inadequate, is a vanishingly small luxury resort: just a dozen rooms and suites tucked in between the impossible turquoise waters and 800 acres of wild nature.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
On an 800-acre private island, reached by boat twenty minutes north of Providenciales.
The rooms
Screened decks open straight onto the sand, and each room has two outdoor showers and a dedicated beach palapa.
Pool and spa
Bring a swimsuit.
Beachfront cottages open onto private plunge pools, and Sand Dollar Spa treatments include open-air massages right on the beach.
At the table
The open-air Clubhouse serves daily changing menus, and Saturday nights bring Jump Up barbecues with bonfires on the beach.
Simple, beach-chic rooms with blonde wood finishes and screened-in porches keep Caribbean blues always in view, while each unit comes with its own private beach tiki—no loungers to fight over here.
How it began
Austrian explorer Count Ferdinand Czernin scouted the island in the 1950s, and resident families opened The Meridian Club here in 1970.
