Luxury hotel group Aman has announced plans for its second urban US property, to be located in the Faena District of Miami’s South Beach.
The two building development will be situated on the site of the former Versailles Hotel, and will offer a hotel and branded residences.
No details have been released regarding room count or facilities – the project is scheduled to be completed in 2023.
Ahead of this Aman is set to open its first urban US hotel and residences within the Crown Building in New York’s Manhattan towards the end of next year.
The group also operates resort properties in Jackson Hole (Wyoming) and Canyon Point (Utah).
The Aman brand was founded in 1988, with the first property (Amanpuri) opening on the Thai island of Phuket. The group now has 39 hotels and resorts in 22 destinations, and recently opened Aman Tokyo at the foothills of the Hidari Daimonji Hill in the northern part of the city.
Other forthcoming destinations include Mexico, Saudi Arabia and Bangkok.
Commenting on the news Vladislav Doronin, Chairman and CEO of Aman said:
“My strategy for Aman places continued focus on developing further urban destinations for the brand following the success of similar projects such as Aman Tokyo.
“Aman Miami will give our guests the opportunity to connect with Aman in a culturally rich urban environment, whilst also serving as a gateway to Amanera in the Dominican Republic and Amanyara in the Turks and Caicos.”
