Aman, known for its exclusive resorts and hotels on land, is venturing onto the water. The luxury hotel brand has now unveiled the name of its first yacht liner: "Amangati". The name, which means "peaceful movement" in Sanskrit, reflects the company's philosophy.
"Amangati" was created by Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design designed. With only 47 luxury suites, it offers significantly fewer cabins than comparable ships of this size. Each suite has a private balcony and is one of the most spacious at sea. On board, guests can enjoy four international dining concepts, a jazz club and a spacious spa area with a Japanese garden. A spacious beach club at the stern provides direct access to the water.
Aman places particular emphasis on the environmental friendliness of the "Amangati". The yacht will be equipped with innovative technologies, including the use of large battery banks for more sustainable operation. This emphasises the company's commitment to reducing its ecological footprint.
The announcement to build the yacht liner from Aman at Sea was made back in 2021 and the project is now taking shape. The keel of the "Amangati" was laid last summer at the T.Mariotti shipyard in Genoa - a shipyard with a lot of experience in building superyachts.
Vlad Doronin, President and CEO of the Aman Group, emphasises the special nature of the project: "The ship will embody the essence of our brand DNA and offer exceptional privacy, first-class amenities and unparalleled service that has never been seen before on the water." He promises a ship that not only represents the highest standards in technology and design, but also reflects the tranquillity of Aman destinations on land.
"Amangati" will not only be available for regular cruises. Aman is also planning to offer the yacht for private charter. This will allow guests to experience some of the world's most fascinating destinations in complete privacy. Further details on booking options will be announced by the company at a later date.
Aman was founded in 1988 with the vision of creating a selection of intimate retreats with the discreet and warm hospitality of a spacious private home. The first "Amanpuri" (place of peace) in Phuket, Thailand, introduced the concept. Since then, Aman has grown to 35 exceptionally tranquil hotels, resorts and residences, from urban to remote, in 20 destinations worldwide. Aman has an exciting range of future projects currently under construction.
