Aman at Sea: Inside Amangati, the World’s Most Anticipated Ultra-Luxury Yacht
The ultra-luxury travel world is about to experience something entirely new. In Spring 2027, Aman will debut Amangati, its first purpose-built luxury yacht. The vessel brings the brand’s legendary sense of tranquility, privacy, and architectural elegance from land to sea.
For travelers who already love Aman properties like Amanpuri, Amangiri, or Aman Venice, this experience will feel instantly familiar. Instead of a resort set in a remote landscape, Amangati will be a floating Aman sanctuary exploring the Mediterranean’s most iconic coastlines.
For discerning travelers seeking the ultimate combination of privacy, design, and effortless travel, this yacht will redefine luxury cruising.
What Makes Amangati Different From Any Other Cruise
Most cruise ships measure luxury by scale. Aman takes the opposite approach.
Amangati is designed to feel closer to a private superyacht or floating boutique hotel than a traditional cruise ship.
Key highlights include
• Just 47 suites for a maximum of 94 guests
• A stunning 600-foot yacht spanning nine decks
• One of the highest space-to-guest ratios at sea
• Every suite with private terraces and floor-to-ceiling ocean views
• Interiors inspired by Japanese ryokan minimalism and Aman’s signature calm design
The result is a ship that feels remarkably residential. It is intimate, quiet, and intentionally understated.
Instead of crowds, guests experience space, stillness, and deeply personalized service.
Suites That Feel Like Private Residences
Each suite aboard Amangati is designed as a serene retreat overlooking the sea.
Features include:
• Spacious layouts ranging roughly 68 to 354 square meters
• Private outdoor terraces
• Natural materials and warm wood tones
• Full-height windows for uninterrupted views
• Spa-style bathrooms
• Dedicated personal host service
At the top of the ship sits the Aman Suite, an extraordinary multi-room residence spanning nearly 4,000 square feet complete with its own whirlpool terrace and private elevator.
This is not a cabin. It is a luxury apartment at sea.
Dining and Social Spaces
Dining aboard Amangati reflects the same culinary philosophy found across Aman resorts worldwide.
Guests will enjoy four distinctive dining venues including
• Mediterranean coastal cuisine
• Japanese washoku and teppanyaki
• Aman’s signature Japanese restaurant concepts
• Elegant all-day dining spaces
Beyond restaurants, the yacht will feature
• A sophisticated Jazz Club for evening entertainment
• A Beach Club and marina with direct water access
• A 16-meter swimming pool overlooking the sea
• Lounge spaces designed for sunset cocktails and relaxed conversation
Everything is designed around a single principle. Refined simplicity without excess.
One of the Largest Spas at Sea
Wellness has always been central to the Aman philosophy. Amangati takes that focus to an entirely new level.
The Aman Spa spans two decks and offers
• Ocean-facing treatment suites
• Open-air whirlpool baths
• Hammam and banya
• Japanese garden serenity areas
• Fitness studio and wellness programming
• Yoga and meditation sessions at sea
This will likely become one of the most extensive spa experiences ever offered on a yacht.
Mediterranean Voyages Designed for Exploration
Amangati’s inaugural season focuses on five to eight night journeys across the Mediterranean. Voyages can also be combined into longer itineraries.
Destinations include
• The French Riviera
• The Italian Riviera and Sardinia
• The Dalmatian Coast
• Croatia and Albania
• The Greek Isles
• Spain’s Mediterranean coastline
The maiden voyage departs May 7, 2027 (my birthday), sailing from Palma de Mallorca to Nice and visiting ports like Barcelona, Marseille, and Saint-Tropez along the way.
Because the yacht is smaller than traditional cruise ships, it can access smaller marinas and hidden anchorages that larger vessels simply cannot reach.
Ultra-Luxury Pricing and What Makes It Special
Amangati is positioned at the absolute pinnacle of luxury cruising.
Early sailings are expected to start around $38,500 for a five night voyage, with premium suites reaching well over $100,000 per week depending on the suite category and itinerary.
That pricing reflects the scale of the experience
• Extremely low guest capacity
• Exceptional suite sizes
• Aman level service
• A yacht designed specifically for this concept
This is not simply a cruise. It is an Aman resort that moves with you across the sea.
