Aman is known to have a reputation of turning anything and everything into an immersive experience drenched in luxury. Come 2027, the hotel brand is set to take that philosophy to the sea with Amangati, a 600-foot yacht.
The inaugural season will feature exclusively curated voyages ranging from five to eight days for the debut season, sailing through Dalmatian Coast, Croatia, to the French Riviera with stops in the two harbours and less-accessed port stops, including Beaulieu-sur-Mer.
Unlike traditional island-hopping itineraries, Amangati’s journeys are circled around experiences that are unhurried with schedules and routes that allow the guests to soak in the experience. Select journeys coincide with cultural events, including Cannes and the Monaco Grand Prix. The yacht also has secured access to a passage through the Grand Canal in Venice, offering breathtaking views of historical landmarks, including San Marco Square, before hitting the sea.
Each voyage comes with a plethora of cultural experiences, but for those who prefer activities that are bespoke, a concierge can help you plan your trip. Apart from this, a dedicated suite host ensures seamless day-to-day arrangements. The yacht also comes with two helipads and six tenders, making commute a breeze.
Spread across nine decks, Amangati features 47 suites ranging from 731 to 3,811 square feet, with interiors staying true to Aman’s signature minimalist aesthetic inspired from ryokans, or Japanese inns. Inside each suite, floor-to-ceiling windows ensure that there’s enough room to soak in the luxury.
On board, the yacht features four international dining venues, a jazz club, a youth lounge, a private cinema, alongside a full-scale Aman Spa.
Spanning 12,817 square feet and spread across two decks, the spa is the largest ever to be installed on a yacht, with facilities including eight ocean-facing treatment suites with private terraces and whirlpool baths, a banya (traditional Russian sauna), a hammam (Turkish bath), and a Japanese garden.
Beyond its indoor amenities, the yacht also has an expensive sundeck with direct sea access and a huge aft swimming pool. Built exclusively for slow travel, Amangati allows guests with an extended time near the sea.
