Aman, the luxury hotel brand, is set to build a new $260 million resort and residential development on the Exuma Islands in the Bahamas. The project, named Amancaya, was announced today by the Bahamas Ministry of Tourism, Investments & Aviation.
Amancaya will mark Aman’s first property in the Bahamas. The resort will be located on 400 acres of private land across two remote cays. It will feature a 36-pavilion resort, alongside a select number of Aman Residences. In addition, the development will include an Aman spa, a beach club, and several high-end dining options.
Local officials expect the project to generate more than 500 jobs. This includes 200 positions during construction and 300 permanent jobs once the development is complete.
The Ministry of Tourism also highlighted the project’s positive impact on the local community. It will support local businesses, create more training opportunities, and contribute to long-term economic growth in Exuma.
“Aman’s entry into The Bahamas reflects the strength of our tourism sector as a leading luxury destination and the growing demand for sustainable, eco-friendly development,” said Chester Cooper MP, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Tourism, Investments & Aviation.
He added, “Aman’s ultra-luxury brand is well-suited for Exuma. We are excited to see the groundbreaking of this investment, which will have a lasting positive impact on the area.”
Aman, known for its high-end resorts, hotels, and private residences, currently operates 36 properties in 20 countries, including locations in Tokyo, Kyoto, Venice, and New York.
