It will be a large agglomerate of many small buildings separated by spacious courtyards. An important feature of the hotel will be its luxurious interior, made from stylish furniture and decorated with works of art created by local craftsmen.

The new hotel in the Al-Ula area will surely attract the attention of travelers who dream of hiding away from the noisy metropolises. Here nothing can disturb their peace, since the hotel is surrounded by many kilometers of the desert stretches.

Despite such a specific location, the fashionable hotel will be distinguished by a full range of amenities and huge set of additional services. It will house restaurants and bars of various specializations; it is planned to equip a garden with swimming pools in the adjacent territory of the hotel. Every day, guests will be offered fascinating excursions in the desert, during which you can admire the most beautiful sand dunes, and also visit the Bedouin settlements.

It is planned to build here a resort system with several hotels, many restaurants and shops, sports and entertainment centers. The resort system name is "Red Sea" and it will cover several natural landscapes. Travelers will have the opportunity to choose their place to stay either on the island, or in a beautiful mountainous region, or in the desert.
