As spring graces Southeast Asia with its most luminous light, Aman Resorts invites travellers to embrace a Season of Renewal — a celebration of reflection, purification, and reconnection. Over three decades, Aman has perfected the art of harmonising cultural tradition with modern serenity, and this year’s spring programming unfolds across five remarkable sanctuaries in Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, Vietnam, and the Philippines.
Amantaka, Laos – Spirit of Pi Mai Lao
In the sacred heart of Luang Prabang, Amantaka welcomes guests to honour Pi Mai Lao, the Lao New Year, from 13 to 16 April 2026. Each morning begins with the tranquil Sai Bat alms offering, followed by water blessings and the symbolic Baci ceremony, where threads tied around the wrist bestow harmony and prosperity. Festivities fill the UNESCO‑listed town with the Elephant Procession, market fairs, and traditional merit‑making rituals. Come nightfall, guests gather poolside for a soulful dinner of Laotian flavours, while dusk cruises along the Mekong inspire quiet contemplation.
Amansara, Cambodia – Khmer New Year Reverence
A short journey from the majestic Angkor temples, Amansara celebrates Khmer New Year with mindful gatherings and cultural authenticity. Between 14 and 16 April, guests enjoy jasmine blessings, Buddha cleansing ceremonies, and a joyful New Year brunch on the lawn. Families connect through traditional Khmer games and lotus‑folding lessons, while evenings reveal a five‑course Apsara Dinner with classical dance. Workshops in wellness and mixology complete the perfect balance of celebration and creativity.
Aman Nai Lert Bangkok, Thailand – Songkran in the City
Urban serenity during Songkran. From 13 to 15 April, guests can join floral blessing ceremonies, participate in alms offerings, and craft jasmine garlands at the Garden Tea Atelier. Thai dance workshops, Muay Thai sessions, and candle‑lit dinners at Arva offer both cultural immersion and rejuvenation. Families seeking privacy can retreat to the breathtaking 18th‑floor Aman Suite with skyline views across the capital’s green expanse.
Amanpuri, Phuket – An Icon of Peace
Perched on its own private peninsula overlooking the Andaman Sea, Amanpuri, the original Aman, continues to define tropical luxury. Its Songkran festivities feature alms offerings, sand‑pagoda building, and the Rod Nam Dam Hua water‑blessing ritual — symbolic gestures of respect and renewal. Days are lively with beachside games and eco‑crafts for children, culminating each night in parades, Thai music, and a culinary showcase of local seasonal flavours. The resort’s multi‑bedroom villas, complete with private pools and resident chefs, offer the ultimate family sanctuary.
Amanoi, Vietnam – Coastal Harmony
Nestled within Nui Chua National Park, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, Amanoi crafts a serene Easter celebration from 28 March to 5 April. Guests are invited to morning yoga sessions, afternoon teas, and open‑air jazz nights overlooking Vinh Hy Bay. Creative souls can sail the coastline by catamaran or paint the surrounding landscape before indulging in a Japanese feast or Vietnamese market‑style dinner. The new Family Residence Escape adds the allure of infinity pools, private butlers, and personalised wellness experiences.
Amanpulo, Philippines – Island Serenity
Fringed by the powder‑soft sands of the Cuyo Archipelago, Amanpulo captures the joy of Easter island‑style. Freediving workshops led by Azul Freediving founder Faye Bautista reveal the beauty of nearby reefs, while visiting therapist Anastasia Gluschuk offers fascia‑focused Rebalancing sessions for ultimate relaxation. Traditional Easter egg hunts, family picnics, and Sunday Mass at the Island Grotto embody the spirit of community and renewal.
This season, Aman’s Season of Renewal invites discerning travellers to rediscover simplicity, connection, and the rich rhythms of local celebration. From mountain sanctuaries to oceanfront serenity, Aman’s Southeast Asian resorts offer the rare promise of meaningful travel — where every ritual becomes a moment of peace.
