6 days agoAman Bolsters its US Presence With a Texas Hotel
Aman is expanding its luxury hospitality presence with a new project in Texas's Hill Country, featuring a hotel and residences.
Branded residences have become the luxury hotel industry's favorite revenue strategy, characterized by recognizable names and a 30% premium for the brand badge, often resulting in real estate that borrows a brand's reputation without its design philosophy.
Enter the latest ship we're obsessed with - Amangati, Aman's first ocean-going motor yacht. While the 600-foot, nine-deck yacht is still under construction, the vessel's first itineraries were announced on Wednesday 21 January, with a debut season of five- to eight-night Mediterranean journeys launching in spring 2027. Amangati's adventures begin on Friday 7 May 2027 with a six-night sailing calling at seven ports, beginning at Palma de Mallorca and finishing at Nice - ports of call include Barcelona, Palamós and Marseille.
