Amanpuri

The very first Aman, opened in 1988 on a headland above Pansea Beach.

Amanpuri is where Aman began. Opened in 1988 on a coconut palm headland above Pansea Beach, it set the template for a new kind of resort: few rooms, no fuss, and an almost total absence of anything you did not ask for.

Guests stay in Thai style pavilions or in private villas with their own staff. The resort reopened in September 2026 after a programme of enhancements, and the beach is as quiet as ever.
