Aman sails into luxury yacht cruising
Luxury resort operator Aman has unveiled Project Sama, a luxury motor yacht through a joint venture between Aman and Cruise Saudi.
The 183 metre vessel will feature 50 luxury suites, each with a private balcony.
Project Sama is set to launch in 2025.
Aman will oversee the entire development process of the project – from design and build to operations and management.
Designed in partnership with SINO T Yacht Architecture & Design, the vessel will incorporate Aman’s eastern heritage and design.
The vessel will have various dining options, including an informal all-day restaurant, plus international dining options and a club and lounge.
There will be an Aman Spa with a Japanese garden, two helipads, plus the Beach Club which will offer guests direct access to the water at the stern of the yacht.
The joint venture between Aman and Cruise Saudi was signed by Cruise Saudi’s Managing Director, Mr Fawaz Farooqui, and Chairman and CEO of Aman, Mr Vlad Doronin.
"The announcement of Project Sama marks an exciting moment in Aman’s growth and evolution, as we not only continue to diversify our geographical portfolio on land, but also at sea, creating sanctuaries in unfrequented locations," Doronin said.
