Aman’s First Yacht, Amangati, Is Now Open for Bookings — And It’s Unlike Anything at Sea

Aman, Reimagined at Sea

For more than three decades, Aman has quietly set the standard for modern luxury travel. Its resorts are defined not by excess, but by restraint — architecture that dissolves into its surroundings, service that anticipates rather than interrupts, and a pace that encourages guests to linger rather than rush.

With Amangati, Aman is extending that philosophy beyond land, and into the world’s most storied coastlines.

Now officially open for bookings, Amangati represents Aman’s first purpose-built yacht — and a decisive statement about the future of ultra-luxury travel at sea. Rather than chasing the conventions of cruising, Aman has done what it always does best: removed friction, reduced scale, and designed an experience around stillness, space, and intentional movement.

For travelers who already understand Aman, this launch feels inevitable. For everyone else, it may quietly redefine what a luxury voyage can be.

What Is Amangati?

Amangati — a name inspired by the idea of peaceful motion — is Aman’s inaugural yacht, launching in Spring 2027. Designed by Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design, the vessel spans nine decks and accommodates just 47 suites, ensuring an atmosphere closer to a private residence than a traditional ship.

Every element of Amangati reflects Aman’s core principles:

• Low guest density
• High space-to-guest ratios
• Design-led calm
• Unscripted, flexible itineraries

Rather than overwhelming guests with activities or entertainment schedules, Amangati is built to let destinations — and moments — unfold naturally.

The Suites: Space, Light, and Quiet Precision

Accommodation on Amangati sets a new benchmark for yacht design.

Each suite features:

• Ceilings up to 2.5 meters (8.2 feet)
• Full-height windows
• Expansive private terraces
• Generous bathrooms and intuitive in-suite technology

The effect is deliberate: the boundary between interior space and sea nearly disappears. Light, horizon, and water become constant companions, whether you’re waking at anchor or sailing between ports.

Every suite is supported by a dedicated Suite Host, offering Aman’s hallmark style of service — attentive, discreet, and always unhurried.

Dining on Amangati: A Culinary Journey in Its Own Right

Dining aboard Amangati is not an afterthought. It’s a core pillar of the experience, shaped by place, seasonality, and ritual.

Across eight dining and lounge venues, guests can move effortlessly between casual, celebratory, and deeply immersive culinary moments.

Alira — All-Day Dining

Inspired by the Mediterranean itself, Alira is an open-air restaurant celebrating coastal cuisines from the Greek Islands to Provence. Menus evolve with each destination, emphasizing fresh ingredients, local traditions, and understated elegance.

Hiori — Japanese Teppanyaki

Hiori brings the quiet theatre of teppanyaki to sea. Precision, rhythm, and ceremony define each meal, from sushi and miso to wagyu prepared on the grill.

Akari — Japanese Omakase & Sake Bar

Akari honors the washoku tradition, where ingredients are chosen at their peak and presented with reverence. An intimate omakase counter and dedicated sake bar complete the experience.

Aman Grill

Rooted in the elemental art of cooking by fire, Aman Grill focuses on prime aged meats, whole fish, and seasonal vegetables. Tableside rituals and sommelier-led pairings elevate the experience, while The Bar at Aman Grill offers a refined setting for aperitifs and nightcaps.

Lounges & Bars

Evenings flow naturally across:

• The Jazz Club
• Cigar Lounge
• Sake Bar
• Pool Bar
• Gelato Bar

Each space has its own cadence, encouraging conversation, reflection, or quiet solitude — never obligation.

Selora Marina & Lounge: Life at the Water’s Edge

One of Amangati’s defining features is Selora Marina and Lounge, a space that opens directly to the sea.

From here, guests can:

• Swim or paddle directly from the yacht
• Access a curated fleet of water toys via floating platforms
• Relax in shaded waterside lounges designed for pause and reflection

This is where Aman’s philosophy becomes tangible: adventure and stillness in perfect balance.

Wellness at the Horizon

At the pinnacle of the yacht sits the Aman Spa, a horizon-facing sanctuary paired with an open-air garden offering uninterrupted views of sea and sky.

True to Aman’s wellness ethos, treatments and experiences are designed to align with the rhythm of the voyage — restorative, grounding, and deeply personal.

Inaugural Voyages: Mediterranean, Reimagined

In Spring 2027, Amangati embarks on its maiden season, tracing the Mediterranean’s most storied coastlines.

These inaugural voyages focus on:

• Secluded coves
• Timeless harbors
• Less-traveled stretches of coast

Current itineraries range from 5 to 8 nights, but can be combined to create longer journeys, allowing guests to travel at a pace rarely possible on land.

Rather than ticking ports off a list, each sailing emphasizes immersion — arriving early, departing late, and allowing destinations to reveal their quieter, lesser-told stories.

Private Charters & Bespoke Events

Beyond individual sailings, Amangati is also available for:

• Private charters
• Milestone celebrations
• Corporate retreats
• Intimate group voyages

Dedicated event hosts work from planning through execution, tailoring every detail — from routing to dining to onboard experiences — with Aman’s signature precision.

How Amangati Fits Into Today’s Luxury Travel Landscape

Amangati arrives at a moment when luxury travelers are increasingly choosing experience over accumulation and depth over volume.

We see this same shift driving interest in:

• Small-ship and expedition-style cruising
• Yacht-based journeys
• Curated, low-density travel experiences

It’s why many travelers are also exploring how to use points and perks strategically for high-value trips, whether through our favorite travel perks credit cards or guides like How to Use Amex Points Toward Bucket-List Cruises.

Amangati doesn’t compete with traditional cruise lines — it bypasses them entirely.

Who Amangati Is For

This yacht is built for travelers who:

• Already love Aman resorts
• Prefer privacy over spectacle
• Want movement without disruption
• Value time, space, and silence as much as service

If you typically book Aman, One&Only, or ultra-luxury expedition journeys — this will feel immediately familiar.

Final Thoughts

Amangati isn’t about seeing more places.

It’s about seeing places differently.

By bringing Aman’s philosophy to sea, this launch marks a meaningful evolution in luxury travel — one defined not by novelty, but by intention. For the right traveler, Amangati may feel less like a new option and more like the missing link between land and sea.
