Where time extends and each destination reveals a lesser-told story.
Setting sail from Spring 2027, Amangati, the inaugural vessel from Aman Resorts’s new maritime chapter, promises to translate the brand’s revered philosophy of peace, privacy and architectural purity to the open sea.
For more than 35 years, Aman has crafted tranquil sanctuaries defined by intuitive service, transformative design and a profound sense of place. With Aman at Sea, that ethos evolves into motion. Designed by Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design, Amangati charts a refined course through the world’s most storied coastlines, offering a yachting experience that is at once intimate and expansive.
Spanning 9 decks and accommodating just 47 suites, Amangati is less a cruise ship and more a floating Aman sanctuary: private in scale, immersive in spirit, and meticulous in every detail.
Accommodations: Ocean as Canvas
With only 47 suites, space is not merely generous, it is intentional. Each suite is conceived as a serene retreat, drawing from Aman’s signature minimalist aesthetic: natural materials, clean lines and a muted palette that frames, rather than competes with, the surrounding seascape.
Floor-to-ceiling windows dissolve the boundary between interior and horizon, while expansive private terraces offer uninterrupted ocean views. Thoughtfully designed living areas, spa-like bathrooms and bespoke furnishings create an atmosphere of residential elegance. For those seeking the pinnacle of privacy, select signature suites offer enhanced proportions and dedicated hosting spaces, ideal for extended journeys.
The emphasis is not on opulence for its own sake, but on calm, an unhurried luxury that invites guests to move in rhythm with the sea.
Dining: Four Venues, One Philosophy
Amangati’s four dining venues reflect Aman’s long-standing culinary philosophy: refined simplicity rooted in place.
Menus are expected to evolve with each itinerary, drawing inspiration from the coastal regions visited. From Mediterranean flavors to Asian influences, each dish celebrates seasonal ingredients and local traditions, interpreted through a contemporary lens.
An all-day dining venue anchors the culinary offering with elegant, light-filled interiors, while a specialty restaurant elevates regional cuisine into a more immersive gastronomic experience. A relaxed terrace setting allows for alfresco meals framed by sea and sky, and an intimate lounge provides a refined backdrop for sunset cocktails and curated tastings.
Here, dining is not scheduled around the ship’s timetable. It unfolds organically, mirroring Aman’s resort ethos of freedom and personalization.
Wellness: The Horizon-Facing Aman Spa
At the pinnacle of the vessel lies perhaps its most poetic space: a horizon-facing Aman Spa and open-air garden. Elevated above the sea, this sanctuary offers uninterrupted views and an atmosphere of profound stillness—an embodiment of the “peaceful motion” that gives Amangati its name.
The spa is anticipated to feature a holistic menu of treatments drawing on Aman’s global wellness expertise, from bodywork and hydrotherapy to mindfulness and movement practices. Indoor treatment suites open toward the ocean, while outdoor spaces invite meditation at sunrise and restorative rituals beneath the stars.
Complementing the spa are fitness and movement areas designed to maintain equilibrium at sea, where wellness becomes not an activity, but a state of being.
Experiences: Story-Led Voyages
True to Aman’s DNA, Amangati’s itineraries will focus on depth over breadth. Rather than rushing between ports, voyages will linger, allowing guests to explore lesser-known harbors, hidden coves and culturally resonant destinations.
Shore experiences are expected to be highly curated and small in scale, guided by local experts and storytellers who reveal the nuance behind each place. From private access to heritage sites to immersive culinary encounters and nature-led expeditions, the emphasis will be on connection, both to destination and to self.
A New Chapter for Aman
With Amangati, Aman does not simply enter the world of luxury cruising, it redefines it. By limiting capacity, prioritizing design integrity and embedding wellness and cultural immersion at its core, Aman at Sea introduces a new archetype: the maritime sanctuary.
As Spring 2027 approaches, anticipation builds for a vessel that promises not spectacle, but serenity. In true Aman fashion, Amangati is less about arrival and more about the space in between, where time extends, horizons widen and each destination reveals a lesser-told story.
