A LUXURIOUS PROPERTY CLOSE TO THE MYSTICAL MONASTERY
In a secluded coconut grove just above a private, crescent-shaped beach, Aman鈥檚 first ever resort is nothing short of a tranquil, tropical oasis. First opened in 1988, the Amanpuri – Sanskrit for 鈥榩eaceful place鈥 – has stone steps leading down to the soft sands of Pansea Beach, where kayaks, paddleboards and the mesmerising Andaman Sea await. Its Thai-style pavilions and luxurious villas are dispersed among the coconut palms, their tall triangular roofs peeping through the swaying canopy. Some have infinity plunge pools, while others come with spacious salas for capturing the magical sunsets. The Ayutthaya-inspired architecture is redolent of ancient Thailand.
Apart from a gorgeous private beach, Amanpuri spoils its guests with floodlit tennis courts, plentiful water sports and a spa that specialises in individual wellness immersion programmes. Its exceptional restaurants offer cuisines ranging from South American to Japanese, and no less than five beautiful golf courses are within easy reach.
