AMANYARA, USA

AMANGIRI, USA
Ochre in the morning light, apricot by midday, dazzling pink at dusk, the geology of the Grand Staircase-Escalante couldn’t be more dramatic. Residing in 600 hectares of the Colorado Plateau, Amangiri blends into countless untouched square miles of red rock country. In the last remnant of the truly wild west, this ‘mountain of peace’ is cradled by the greatest concentration of national parks in the United States – a staggering landscape of canyons, mesas, mountains, gorges, rapids and desert, with traces of human life dating back more than 10,000 years.
Housed in two accommodation wings leading from Amangiri’s Central Pavilion into the desert, most of Amangiri’s suites offer their own private plunge pools and rooftop terraces. All claim panoramic desert or mesa views through floor-to-ceiling glass doors and have a clean-lined aesthetic reflecting the luminous qualities of the desert.
The most spectacular of all is the modernist Amangiri Suite, which features a large private lap pool with floating steps, an expansive sun deck with outdoor dining areas, a fire pit around which to gather at night, and a private sky terrace with a large day bed, ideal for relaxing in the sun or stargazing. Magnificent desert views are framed from just about everywhere in this 348 square-metres (3,472 square-feet) oasis.
AMAN TOKYO, JAPAN
A sanctuary at the top of the Otemachi Tower, Aman Tokyo’s sleek design is rooted in ritual – a perfect balance of urban dynamism and cultural sensibility. Ikebana displays and engawa platforms blur the boundary between indoors and out; expansive rooms and an Aman Spa are among the city’s largest. The sense of space and breadth of venues is unmatched in the metropolis, allowing Aman Tokyo to identify both as a social hub and serene escape.
Aman Tokyo’s rooms and suites are lofty sanctuaries drawing design inspiration from traditional Japanese residences. Blending wood, washi paper and stone with modern technology and luxurious fabrics, they offer magnificent views encompassing the Imperial Palace Gardens, Tokyo’s Sky Tree and on clear days, Mount Fuji on the horizon.
Positioned in the northwest corner of the Otemachi Tower, the Aman Suites are the largest at 157 square-metres (1,689 square-feet). Each offers an entrance hall with a guest powder room, a spacious bedroom with a king-size bed, and a separate living room with a dining area and open-plan kitchen pantry. The bedroom, free-standing furo bathtub and living room all claim gaze-worthy views through floor-to-ceiling glass windows, while traditional washi-paper sliding doors open to reveal the en suite bathroom.
Claiming a breathtaking stretch of the East Balinese coastline overlooking the Lombok Strait, Amankila resides on a lush hillside beneath sacred Mount Agung. Architect Ed Tuttle was inspired by Ujung Water Palace and the property’s graceful buildings are connected by frangipani-lined walkways through the treetops. Stilted suites rest high on the hillside with spectacular sea views, a three-tier infinity pool cascades at the property’s heart, and down on the shore, the Beach Club leads to a private sandy beach.
Amankila’s free-standing suites all feature thatched roofs and are designed as beach houses with a twist. Each has a large bedroom with picture windows, a spacious ensuite bathroom with a deep soaking marble bathtub, and an expansive wraparound terrace.
The most breathtaking suites of all are the three Infinity Pool Suites, all slightly different in layout, each set high on the hillside overlooking the Lombok Straight.

AMANZOE, GREECE
Amanzoe offers access to a wilder Greece – a place of pure nature, where time stands still.

Situated on the hillside, every one of Amanzoe’s free-standing guest pavilions features its own private swimming pool and exquisite views.

Aman was founded in 1988 with the vision of building a collection of intimate retreats with the unassuming, warm hospitality of a gracious private home. The first, Amanpuri (place of peace), in Phuket, Thailand, introduced the concept and, since then, Aman has grown to encompass 34 exquisitely serene hotels and resorts in 20 destinations across the world, with a further nine projects in the pipeline. In such spectacular settings, Aman has honed its offering with its transformative influence on mind, body and spirit through harmoniously designed environments transporting guests out of their everyday lives. Twelve properties also offer private branded Residences: sanctuaries that go beyond commonplace notions of luxury allowing a select few to make the Aman way of life a permanent reality.
In recent years, Aman has grown to offer its coveted lifestyle beyond the parameters of its havens. In 2018, the introduction of Aman Skincare continued the brand’s holistic influence, offering beautiful, scented formulas using powerful all-natural ingredients and inspired by Aman Spas. The introduction of Sva – a range of supplements designed to help maintain optimum health – and Aman Fine Fragrance in 2020 continued this journey, bringing Aman into the comfort of home. This sentiment was echoed in 2021, with the arrival of a new retail collection, The Essentials by Aman, comprising timeless ready-to-wear pieces that answer the needs of every Aman guest.
With innovation a cornerstone of the brand’s philosophy, in 2020 Aman welcomed a new hotel brand, Janu – meaning ‘soul’ in Sanskrit. Janu offers a unique take on hospitality where genuine human interaction, playful expression and social wellness are at the core of the experience. Janu aims to bring balance to the head and heart and rekindle the soul. Three forthcoming Janu hotels are already under construction: Tokyo; AlUla in Saudi Arabia and Montenegro.
Providing a contemplative place to unwind and rejuvenate Aman’s finest suites are destinations unto themselves, utterly in tune with their milieu and the perfect foil to daily life.
Framing mesmerising views, those close to nature offer private pools, gardens and capacious living and dining areas flowing seamlessly outdoors, while those in cities provide unparalleled access to and refuge from the urban whirl. Impeccably curated with the finest furniture and artwork, combining modern comfort and thoughtful Aman touches to make guests feel completely at home, Aman’s suites are serviced by personal butlers and private chefs, making leaving to explore the resort and world outside entirely optional.
AMAN NEW YORK, USA
Situated in the historic Crown Building on the corner of 57th Street and Fifth Avenue, Aman New York is the result of an impressive transformation of the iconic building, that saw the property restored to its former glory with interiors meticulously designed by Jean-Michel Gathy. The all-suite hotel has amongst the largest and most generously appointed in the city, each one incorporating organic materials. With warm and muted tones used throughout - oak, walnut and aromatic cinnamon woods are featured complementing the metallic architectural elements of bronze, brass, and stainless and blackened steel.
In a nod to Aman’s eastern roots, walls are dressed in natural fabrics and daily replenished flower arrangements are inspired by Japan’s Ikebana artform, seamlessly delivering the outside-in.
In recognition of the building’s rich artistic heritage, as the former and first home of the Museum of Modern Art (1929 to 1932), each suite includes a large-scale art mural inspired by the 15th-century masterpiece Pine Trees (Shōrin-zu byōbu) by Hasegawa Tōhaku. One of Japan’s most celebrated works, Pine Trees, owned by the Tokyo National Museum, was designated as a National Treasure in 1952 and is internationally acclaimed.
