The renowned hospitality brand has begun construction on Aman at Sea
If you’re a discerning modern traveller, with a penchant for vacation stays that rejuvenate both body and mind, you’ll have undoubtedly heard of Aman Resorts. The lifestyle and hospitality brand has continuously flexed their pedigree in diverse locales and cultures—offering top-of-the-line and culturally-rooted properties that provide the highest echelons of privacy and exclusivity.
Those who’ve had the pleasure of staying at one of the group’s resorts can (and often will) attest to the impeccable service and breathtaking surroundings that is synonymous with the Aman brand. Not only that, a number of them have become self-professed “aman-junkies”—a fitting sobriquet for the brand’s ardent fans who strive to experience most, if not all, of the Aman resorts around the world.
These fans can now look forward to yet another Aman property to dive into—this time, perhaps, in a more literal sense. Set to welcome visitors in 2027, Aman at Sea, the brand’s first foray into the world of ultra-luxury aquatic voyaging, has commenced construction at the T.Mariotti shipyard in San Giorgio di Nogaro.
“This represents a significant milestone for the brand as we continue to diversify our geographical portfolio on land…and bring the renowned spirit and architectural distinction of Aman to the world’s oceans for the first time,” says Vlad Doronin, chairman and chief executive officer of Aman Group.
The 183-metre vessel, a collaborative effort with Cruise Saudi, will house 50 opulent suites, each equipped with spacious, private balconies. The brand promises an array of dining options and amenities on board, including an informal all-day restaurant and international dining spaces, a relaxed club and lounge, the serene and signature Aman Spa, and a spacious beach club which will offer guests direct access to the water at the stern of the yacht.
Additionally, Aman at Sea reassures that the vessel will be powered by a dual-fuel engine designed to run using marine diesel oil and methanol, cutting down on the private yacht’s environmental impact.
