Tourism Breaking News
Red Sea Global announced that Saudi Arabia’s newest luxury resort, Shebara, and the fourth to open its doors at The Red Sea destination will be welcoming guests from November 2024. Shebara, the first to open of RSG’s owned and operated resorts, is built to offer luxury, sustainability, and innovation converging to redefine how tourism is delivered. The resort provides direct access to an extraordinary marine environment where guests can enjoy diving in some of the most pristine, biodiverse waters in the world. Its unrivaled hospitality is rooted in the Saudi tradition of Hafawah – which encapsulates generosity, consideration, and kindness – offering guests unique, timeless, and extraordinary experiences.
“We are immensely proud to open Shebara to the world, yet another remarkable milestone for Red Sea Global and Saudi tourism. This luxury and truly one-of-a-kind resort embodies our commitment to innovative design and sustainable tourism. I am genuinely excited for our first guests to experience the unparalleled beauty and serenity of Shebara, where every detail has been crafted to create unforgettable memories,” said John Pagano, Group CEO of Red Sea Global.
The stunning Red Sea setting will ensure guests are provided with an experience far beyond the ordinary. Shebara’s 73 overwater and beachfront villas shimmer in the bright sunshine, appearing as if they were a string of pearls floating above the turquoise waters of the Red Sea.
Beyond the unparalleled natural beauty that surrounds the resort, Shebara invites guests to immerse themselves in luxury, from taking advantage of the premium amenities, including a state-of-the-art Fitness Center, to experiencing exceptional cuisine, delivered by world-class chefs, such as Michelin starred Marco Garfagnini. Guests can also enjoy an exceptional nature-inspired spa sanctuary with 5 luxurious treatment rooms, all while being able to relax and reset, surrounded by sun, sea, and glorious soft, white sand.
Through its leading approach to sustainability, Shebara seamlessly combines its unique architecture – take one-of a kind, stainless-steel orbs, which fade into the horizon as the surface refracts the light – with the island’s natural environment. Home to its own solar farm and an array of integrated utilities, the resort represents everything that Red Sea Global stands for as a responsible developer.
Shebara is a year-round destination with cool summer temperatures. Located 25 kilometres from the mainland, the resort can be reached by a 30 to 40-minute boat ride or a 30-minute seaplane flight from Red Sea International Airport (RSI). This relative isolation provides a sanctuary for those seeking an extraordinary escape into nature and wellness.
RSI is situated within three hours’ flying time of 250 million people and eight hours’ flying time for 8% of the world’s population, has been receiving a regular schedule of domestic flights since September 2023. International flights began in April 2024, with a twice-weekly route between The Red Sea and Dubai International.
Reservations are now open for stays at Shebara and to celebrate its grand opening, the resort has an exciting introductory offer. For a limited time only, with all bookings of two consecutive nights, a third night will be offered on a complimentary basis.
