Parrot Cay Resort & Shambhala Retreat

A private island resort, based northeast of the main island of Providenciales, Parrot Cay Resort has a total of 55 rooms/suites and private beach houses. Parrot Cay is a retreat for those who seek total relaxation and rejuvenation of body and soul. White Sandy beaches, clear turquoise waters and kaleidoscopic marine life make Parrot Cay the ideal place to unwind. The tranquil setting is further enhanced by the understated elegance of the resort's design. The holistic spa "Shambhala" introduces body treatments, massages, yoga, and walks in a unique and spectacular setting. Available are Balinese, Thai, Tu'ina, Aromatherapy, Swedish, and Indian head massages.

The accommodations at Parrot Cay Resort include standalone villas on the beach, within 100 ft of the sea, and hotel-style rooms on slightly raised ground (a two- to five-minute walk to the sand). Parrot Cay houses both garden view and ocean facing rooms, one bedroom suites and one bedroom beach houses with individual plunge pools.

Parrot Cay Estate is a collection of villas located beyond Rocky Point, affording guests a private beach that's both empty and secure. The homes are designed for the most discerning traveler who seeks the villa experience with hotel services attached. The three-bedroom homes feature large bedrooms with ocean-view sitting areas, living room, dining area, kitchen and outdoor dining area, private swimming pool, direct access to the beach and private butler service. Privacy is ensured as the villas are a 5-7 minute buggy ride from the main resort.

Some guests find their own stretch of beach; others prefer to relax around the resort’s main swimming pool – cobalt, melting into the bright horizon. There is a watersports centre and two floodlit tennis courts, a fully equipped gym, a 5000 sq ft infinity pool, as well as trails snaking through the undeveloped back country. The library features a formidable book collection, as well as pool tables, internet terminals, a satellite television and Playstation consoles. A hotel boutique sells a carefully edited selection of gifts as well as holiday necessities like hats and sun lotion.

Parrot Cay Resort offers distinctive cuisine, whether you choose to dine in the Lotus or Terrace restaurants, from one of the comprehensive room service menus or the healthful COMO Shambhala options.

Experience the COMO Shambhala retreat during dedicated retreat weeks with the world’s leading yoga teachers, Asian-inspired holistic therapies, and health-giving cuisine. This is a place to achieve balance and a complete return to real well being - of mind, body and spirit.
