Set within one of the world’s most ambitious luxury tourism developments amidst an archipelago of over 90 pristine islands, the hotel offers guests sweeping views of the ocean and a discreet barefoot luxury immersed in a natural experience.

Each of the resort’s 210 sea-facing rooms provides immediate beach access; allowing guests to step out on to the sands of the Red Sea from the terrace. Moreover, the resort features seven different gastronomic experiences, sprawling pools and recreational facilities, a spa, a health club and curated meetings and events spaces for leisure, business travellers and groups.
