Aman to enter safari segment

Aman has unveiled its first safari retreat in Africa with Aman Karingani, a resort and exclusive branded residences set within Mozambique’s 150,000-hectare Karingani Game Reserve.

Sharing an 84-kilometre border with the Kruger National Park, Karingani Game Reserve offers a secluded setting in southern Mozambique, with diverse ecosystems ranging from open savannahs to rolling woodlands and seasonal wetlands, creating an important refuge for a vast array of wildlife.

Situated in an elevated spot overlooking an expanse framed by distant mountains, Aman Karingani will comprise 30 standalone pavilions, ranging from one to two-bedroom, designed with Aman’s signature aesthetic to ensure comfort and privacy.

All pavilions open onto expansive covered decks with views across the horizon from their own private pools. In addition, a limited collection of three- to six-bedroom branded residences are also on offer.

At the heart of the resort, a central lodge houses a range of amenities including an outdoor swimming pool that overlooks the escarpment, an Aman Spa, and dining experiences that showcase a selection of Aman’s signature restaurant concepts as well as fireside dining.

“The introduction of Aman Karingani is a significant milestone for our brand as we bring Aman’ s ethos of timeless elegance, unparalleled service and profound privacy to Mozambique for the first time,” comments Chairman and CEO of Aman Group Vlad Doronin.

“Responding to the growing desire from our brand loyalists for an Aman safari retreat in Africa, the property reinforces the brand’s commitment to offering transformative experiences, connected to nature, and an ultra-luxury way of living in the world’s most exceptional destinations. Set within one of the continent’s most pristine and diverse reserves, I am delighted to bring Aman’s renowned lifestyle to Mozambique.'”

Aman’s arrival in Mozambique will mark its second location in Africa following in the footsteps of Amanjena, in Morocco’s UNESCO-city of Marrakech, and joins a robust pipeline of forthcoming Aman and Janu properties globally.
