Summer Highlights from Aman Resorts in the Mediterranean
April 21, 2015
Each property is distinctive and unique in its identity, drawing inspiration from its location and local culture, whilst remaining true to the Aman ethos of intimacy, elegance, and serenity. Cultural, relaxing, active and inspiring experiences are a key element of the Aman offering as it awakens for the summer 2015 season.
Amanzoe
(pictured above)
A hilltop haven in the heart of the Greek Riviera Amanzoe, perched on a hilltop on the east coast of the Peloponnese, is surrounded by undulating olive groves and overlooks the picturesque island of Spetses and the Agean Sea. Amanzoe, drawing its name from the Sanskrit-derived word for ‘peace' and zoe, the Greek word for ‘life', not only provides a peaceful haven in which to relax, but is perfectly situated adjacent to a wealth of archaeological sites in the area for guests who want to explore the rich heritage and history of the ancient Greek culture. The Spring/Summer 2015 season for Amanzoe will introduce a range of experiences for guests and families including a photography retreat running between 24th to 28th April, a Movement and Flow Retreat designed to aid guests with fluidity of their movement and help with posture and stress management between 8th to 17th May, as well as brand new children's facilities. In addition, four new overnight luxury beach cabanas will launch in June, each designed with the same elegant and clean aesthetic of the Amanzoe pavilions and each with their own private garden and swimming pool with uninterrupted sea views.
Aman Canal Grande Venice
Venice's romantic artisan sanctuary
To celebrate Venice's international art exhibition, the Biennale, Aman Canal Grande Venice will be hosting an exclusive exhibition in its Palazzo in partnership with iconic auction house, Christies, from 5th to 8th May. Pieces will include contemporary work by Venetian artists and will be placed throughout the public spaces of the hotel, allowing guests to immerse themselves in art before the festival commences. During the Biennale, Aman Canal Grande Venice, the only hotel to have a room with a ceiling fresco painted by Tiepolo, will offer a series of exclusive tours that will guide art enthusiasts around Venice, allowing them to explore the historical sites of the city through the eyes of an art expert. With its views of the Grand Canal, arguably the city's most revered feature, the hotel fuses the romance and history of Venice with the hospitality and impeccable service for which Aman is renowned.
Aman Sveti Stefan
Montenegro's hidden gem
Formerly a fishing village, the UNESCO protected historic island of Sveti Stefan, where Aman Sveti Stefan resides, is located in the centre of Montenegro's Adriatic coastline and incorporates two kilometres of picturesque beaches earning it the reputation as the Mediterranean's hidden gem. Aman Sveti Stefan will reopen on 1st May for the 2015 season. It is home to the stand alone 21,000 sq ft Aman Spa, which is nestled amongst cedar and pine woods and overlooking the sea providing a serene escape. Treatments incorporate local herbs, mint, lavender and rosemary all of which are grown on the hotel's grounds. Trekking along the meandering stone lanes of over 800 olive trees and herbs on the island, day trips to the beautiful walled town of Kotor, cycle tours of the nearby villages to explore Baroque architecture and ancient monasteries, and visiting family-run wineries which grow Montenegrin wine are just a few of the activities that guests can take part in to discover Budva.
Amanruya
The refined resort in a sleepy village
Set on the northern coast off Turkey's Bodrum Peninsula and offering the utmost in privacy, seclusion, and relaxation, Amanruya is Aman's tranquil resort, ascending through a series of levels offering pebbled courtyards and terraces with magnificent views of the fabled coastline. From April 2015, British Airways will be operating direct flights from Gatwick to Bodrum, making it even more accessible to visit this Aegean region of Turkey with its pine forests and scalloped bays for either a weekend of sunshine or a longer restful break. Guests of the 36 cottage resort will have access to tailor-made excursions including a ‘Blue Voyage' in a gulet, a traditional Turkish wooden sailing vessel, along the Bodrum peninsula and the relaxed Beach Club which overlooks the jetty and offshore swimming pontoon provides a soothing environment to unwind with a book from the three-storey Library Tower.
Amanjena
An Eden-like oasis of tranquility, calm and intimacy Amanjena's Moorish design blends seamlessly into Aman's minimalist and modern aesthetic, and is set on the edge of the Palmeraie, an extensive oasis of palm and olive trees. With its colonnaded walkways and marble fountains, all of which are lit at night by the glow of 1000's of candles, it has an enveloping ambience of peace and serenity, making it the idyllic option for relaxation after a day of taking in the colourful and vibrant sights and sounds of Marrakech. The imposing Atlas Mountains are located within an hour from the resort, and guests can explore the foothills, ancient mosques, and crumbling kasbahs at their leisure followed by a high altitude picnic serving delicate Moroccan cuisine. The Aman Spa provides an atmosphere of calm where guests can relax with traditional ancient Moroccan treatments and unwind in the whirlpool with its own terracotta courtyard. Central to the spa is the hotel's very own hammam, a two chamber room of Moresque arches meeting in a vaulted ceiling.
