Aman and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia have partnered on a 50-suite yacht coming in 2027
In 2021, the company unveiled plans to enter the cruise segment with the upcoming launch of Aman at Sea, a joint venture with Cruise Saudi, an entity owned by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Currently under development, Aman at Sea is on track to debut in 2027 with a 50-suite luxury vessel, which Aman said will differentiate itself by offering "an experience more akin to a private super yacht."
"We see it as an opportunity to connect a number of our resorts, and we also want to look at doing it slightly differently in the way that we'll be scheduling it and the ability to have flexibility of arrival and departure dates rather than set cruise dates," said Nash, adding that Aman expects to make itinerary details available by the first quarter of next year.
In addition to multiple dining venues, the vessel will feature amenities like an Aman Spa, a Japanese garden and two helipads.
"We're really wanting to understand what are the maritime must-dos, and where can we really be creative and put that Aman inflection on it?"
