The review

A pool built into a red rock mesa in the desert — the American entry on my list of the world's most jaw-dropping hotel pools.

Amangiri holds the #3 spot on my ranking of the world's most jaw-dropping hotel pools, and it's the only American property that cracked the top five. The reason is simple: the main pool isn't next to the landscape, it's built into it — wrapped around a red rock mesa that rises straight out of the water.

This is the kind of property I book for clients marking something: a milestone birthday, an anniversary, a trip that needs to feel unlike anything else on the calendar. The desert setting does half the work, and Aman's style of quiet, anticipatory service does the rest.

As a preferred partner of Aman, booking through me means the rate is identical to booking direct — but the amenities, upgrade priority, and my direct line to the property come with it.

What stood out

The details that made the list

01
The pool is the postcard. Built into a red rock mesa in the desert — the image that put it at #3 on my pools list, and it's even better in person by every account my clients give me.
02
Desert seclusion, Aman polish. Canyon Point is genuinely remote, which is exactly the point — this is the trip you take to disappear well.
03
A short list of peers. On my pools ranking it sits alongside Le Sirenuse and Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc — that's the company it keeps.
Know before you book

The Fine Print, From Your Advisor

01
This is a splurge, full stop. Aman pricing is Aman pricing. My clients book it for occasions, not long stays — and no one has regretted it.
02
Getting there takes planning. The remoteness is the product. Build the travel day into the itinerary and let me sequence it properly.
03
Book well ahead. A small property with global demand — the best rooms and dates go early.
