Discovery Path — No. 02
First Time Aman
Which address suits a first stay — and why.
Aman is less a hotel brand than a disposition: few rooms, generous space, little conversation. Anyone experiencing it for the first time should choose the right property — they differ from one another more than in any other group.
This path moves through three very different Aman retreats and ends with the question of when to travel.
The stages
How this path unfolds
01
Start with character
City property, desert or island — the decision is not made on facilities but on what you want to do with your days. Our piece on this is the best place to begin.
02
The gentle introduction: Aman Venice
Twenty-four rooms in a palazzo with its own garden. For those who like cities but do not wish to be consumed by them, this is the mildest way in.
03
The emphatic introduction: Amangiri
Desert, distance, almost no distraction. Amangiri divides opinion more than any other retreat in the group and stays with you longest. Three or four nights are enough.
04
Aman in the city
Tokyo and New York show how that quiet feels above a metropolis. Both work as the beginning or end of a longer journey rather than as the sole destination.
We are glad to adjust this path to your dates and your pace.
