Desert Rock Design

Desert Rock is one of the most dramatic desert landscapes in the world, with architecture that honors and respects its surroundings. The design is based on a philosophy to build with the land, not on it.

Sustainable considerations have been made throughout with the resort specifically engineered to reduce energy consumption and regenerate native flora leading to a more green, flourishing wadi.

By utilizing natural materials and integrating the resort into the rock, guests can connect physically with the landscape and experience Saudi Arabia’s stunning, natural beauty.
