Four Seasons And Red Sea is set in the heart of the Red Sea masterplan development. This planned development is a new resort area designed to become Saudi Arabia’s Luxury Lifestyle destination and the region’s foremost luxury beachside destination.
Location
The Red Sea will comprise of the idyllic natural islands and lagoons across 200 kilometers (124 miles) of coastline along the western coast of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, between the cities of Umluj and Al Wajh. The new Four Seasons Resort will be located on Shura Island, the hub of the development and home to a yacht marina, leisure and lifestyle facilities, retail offerings, an 18-hole golf course, and more.
“As we continue to expand Four Seasons presence in the region, our new project in the Red Sea will be one of our first resorts in the Kingdom, blending the best of beachside travel with the natural and cultural wonders of Saudi Arabia,” says Bart Carnahan, President, Global Business Development and Portfolio Management. “We are incredibly proud to be part of this impressive and visionary development by RSG and look forward to inviting guests to explore our new Resort within such a beautiful and storied destination.”
The Red Sea destination is being built with sustainable practices and tourism at its core. The masterplan is informed by an impressive marine spatial planning simulation to model the environmental impact of development and operations to minimize over-tourism while providing guests with an exceptional travel and lifestyle experience. The destination will also rely on renewable energy and will only develop a small portion of the islands with expansive dedicated conservation zones.
“This new destination provides the next generation of travelers with an incredible opportunity to discover what Saudi Arabia has to offer, building on its historic and cultural significance while highlighting the exceptional natural beauty of the region,” says John Pagano, Group CEO, Red Sea Global. “We are thrilled to have Four Seasons as a partner on this project, bringing their world-renowned service expertise to the beautiful Red Sea.”
Style & Character
What do we know about the Upcoming Four Seasons Resort at The Red Sea, Saudi Arabia? The new Four Seasons Resort, designed by Foster + Partners, will offer approximately 149 rooms and suites with uninterrupted views over white sand beaches and crystal clear waters.
The Red Sea will be the ideal destination for those looking to uncover the wonders of the ancient Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, including the close proximity to the ruins at Mada’in Saleh, as well as the natural attractions such as the environmentally protected coral reefs and mangroves, dormant volcanoes, local wildlife, and much more.
Rooms
We don’t have pictures of the interiors of the rooms here yet but expect them to offer the usual Four Seasons level of fabulousness, just like the rest of the resort which can be seen in the imagery above.
Service & Facilities
The property will also feature meeting and events spaces, a marine discovery center, Kids For All Seasons space, and more. Whether looking for rest and relaxation or sports and water activities, there will be something for everyone, including a full-service spa with a hammam, tennis courts, three outdoor pools with cabanas, and two separate beaches for families and adults perfect for soaking in the sun or diving down to explore the coral reefs.

Conclusion
A cornerstone of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 ambition to diversify its economy, RSG is playing a key role in transforming the nation by creating exciting opportunities for young Saudi talent and the private sector as it develops built assets and destinations across multiple sectors that make a positive impact for people and planet.
The concept is certainly attractive, and we approve of this resort’s green credentials. Currently, holders of US, UK, or Schengen Business or Tourist Visas can apply for a Visa upon arrival in Saudi Arabia. Tis Visa requirement is likely to put off tourists that otherwise might be attracted to the region because of the extra paperwork required.
