Early opening on the visionary Shura Island reinforces IHG’s pioneering luxury outlook
Previous
InterContinental, the world’s first and largest luxury hotel brand, is opening new doors to a world of fascination on The Red Sea. Advancing the brand’s pioneering outlook and reinforcing IHG Hotels & Resorts’ global commitment to growing a leading luxury and lifestyle portfolio, InterContinental The Red Sea Resort is among the first to open on Shura Island – a destination which, in line with Saudi Vision 2030 ambitions, is setting a new global benchmark in luxury tourism.
The 210-room resort, set within pristine waters, vibrant coral reefs, and protected marine ecosystems, combines unmatched natural beauty with visionary, sustainable development. Offering guests an immersive sense of exclusivity and escapism, bold coral inspired architecture, cultural authenticity and intuitive service combine on Saudi Arabia’s compelling coastline.
“The opening of InterContinental The Red Sea Resort marks the beginning of a new chapter for guests to explore the Red Sea’s extraordinary beauty,” said Francesco Pantalone, General Manager. Reflecting on the milestone, Pantalone stated that through its refined design, bespoke experiences, and enduring spirit of discovery, InterContinental The Red Sea Resort seeks to deliver extraordinary experiences and timeless memories for our guests.
Design Excellence and Sustainable Commitment
The resort’s LEED BD+C Platinum Certified design – conceived by Foster + Partners with interiors by Kristina Zanic Consultants – blends contemporary architecture with the island’s natural surroundings to demonstrate the highest global standard for sustainability. Curved facades, organic textures, and Saudi artworks fuse to create an atmosphere of quiet elegance that underscores the resort’s dedication to environmental stewardship from the ground up.
For the modern luxury traveller
InterContinental The Red Sea Resort is a testament to the global evolution of InterContinental, which is reimagining the luxury travel experience for today’s modern luxury traveler. Its aim is to strike a harmonious balance between freedom and familiarity.
Each one of the resort’s guest rooms and suites – ranging from 50 sqm King and Twin Rooms to the spacious Red Sea Three-Bedroom Suite – is designed to ensure every guest can find restoration and rest within rooms, but also rejuvenation and focus. Crafted in collaboration with neuroscience-based designer, Isabelle Sjövall, this new design direction for InterContinental recognizes key elements that influence the way we respond to environment, such as tones, textures, and lighting, as well as our connection to nature and biophilia.
Guests will also have complimentary access to the latest circadian science through the brand’s global partnership with Timeshifter – a NASA utilised app which provides guests with a personalised jet lag mitigation plan to reduce the physical and mental impacts of time zone changes. This means guests can arrive ready to experience all that InterContinental The Red Sea Resort has to offer.
Guests seeking an enhanced level of service can utilize Club InterContinental, which provides private check-in, and exclusive amenities. Whilst for younger guests, InterContinental’s signature children’s and teens club, Planet Trekkers, offers marine-inspired activities and supervised outdoor adventures such as a climbing wall, energetic workshop & multi-level fun and a splash park.
Meanwhile, The SPA InterContinental offers adults a haven of stillness where beneath open-air wellbeing domes the sun energizes, the sea calms and the sand bring balance. Here, soothing rituals, hydrotherapy treatments, tailored massages and mindful yoga are designed to respond to and restore the modern luxury travelle....
