The Red Sea
The Red Sea
Overview
The Red Sea is open for business with its first three resorts, Six Senses Southern Dunes, The Red Sea; St Regis Red Sea Resort; and Nujuma, A Ritz-Carlton Reserve already welcoming guests.
These world-class properties are part of phase one of The Red Sea, a pioneering regenerative tourism destination on the west coast of Saudi Arabia.
Phase one includes an international airport and 16 iconic resorts across three islands and two inland sites. Together, they will offer around 3,000 keys and be operated by globally renowned brands. The resorts will open gradually throughout 2024 and 2025.
On completion in 2030, the destination will include 50 hotels with 8,000 rooms and more than 1,000 residential properties across 22 islands and six inland sites. Development has been limited to accommodate no more than 1 million visitors a year to preserve the ecosystem at The Red Sea.
Master Plan
At The Red Sea, we are forging a new model of development, with responsibility at its core. In partnership with Wimberly Allison Tong & Goo and Buro Happold, our masterplan for the destination has been developed to not only protect the environment but enrich it for future generations to enjoy. The plan was informed by a series of wide-ranging environmental studies, and the largest marine spatial planning simulation ever undertaken, in partnership with King Abdullah University of Science and Technology, to assess the environmental impact of the development and operation of the destination. As a result of these findings, less than one percent of the total site area is being developed, with 75 percent of the destination’s islands being preserved for conservation. We also aim to achieve a 30 percent net positive conservation benefit by 2040, achieved by enhancing key habitats that help biodiversity to flourish.
