Set to open its doors in November 2024, this hyper-luxury resort represents a significant milestone in the Red Sea regenerative tourism project. The first destination is independently owned and operated by Red Sea Global.
Architectural Mastery Meets Natural Beauty
The visionary design of Shebara, created by Killa Design, reflects an architectural philosophy that celebrates the natural landscape. Comprising 73 beachfront and overwater villas, the resort’s aesthetic draws inspiration from the surrounding environment. The striking stainless-steel orbs of the overwater villas mirror the shifting hues of the ocean and sky, creating a visual narrative that is both futuristic and in tune with nature. Each accommodation, inspired by luxury yachts, promises a sophisticated yet inviting atmosphere, inviting guests to immerse themselves in unparalleled comfort while basking in the breathtaking views.
An Oasis of Wellness and Rejuvenation
At the heart of Shebara’s offering lies an extensive wellness program designed to rejuvenate the body and soul. The resort’s spa, featuring treatments from esteemed brands Amra Skincare and Dr Burgener Switzerland, will offer a variety of luxurious experiences across five treatment rooms, including a dedicated couples’ suite. Outdoor vitality pools, Jacuzzis, and saunas complement the spa facilities, while separate men’s and women’s wellness areas provide a sanctuary for relaxation. Guests will also benefit from a state-of-the-art fitness centre, yoga pavilion, and a variety of outdoor activities, ensuring that health and well-being remain at the forefront of their stay.
