I am awaiting an Aman safari resort, and not a half-year resort like Aman-i-khas. Preferrably in or near the Ngorongoro Crater, Tanzania. Possibly something near the Mahale Mountains in the west of the country, similar to Greystoke Mahale.

Also very disappointed in yet more European venues opening for Aman, that nobody will ever visit. Has anyone outside of Europe even heard of Portugal? Surely there must be better places in Europe to build, such as Venice, Rome, London, Prague, Barcelona, St Petersburg etc.

Joking aside: Portugal is a very beautiful country indeed - and not only the big community of European Amanjunkies is very happy looking forward to the opening of Portugese, Greece and hopefully even more European Amanresorts far from the worn-out tourist tracks!
Hmm, JB / Tioman - there are better options like the one at the stalled Penang Hill..
Looking forward to Amans in Portugal & Greece .. If anything , help their dire situation which bodes ?? for rest of the world.
BTW, many non- Europeans ( except those who generally don't venture out of their own country & think they are THE only worthwhile place to be at ) have decent sense of geography & the world
