An island resort by Four Seasons

Four Seasons are set to open an island resort on Sindalah in NEOM

The new Four Seasons resort will be located on Sindalah Island and will feature 225 guest rooms and suites with terraces overlooking the beaches of the Red Sea, as well as 52 villas with one to four-bedroom configurations with plunge pools and beach views, and with the Presidential and Royal Villas offering private swimming pools, gyms and access to private yacht docks.

The resort architecture is being led by LUCA DINI Design & Architecture, with interiors for guest rooms and public areas by RBTA and LW Design respectively.

NEOM is a visionary project that aims to create a new model for sustainable living, working and prospering. Located in the northwest of Saudi Arabia, NEOM covers an area of 26,500 sq km and comprises land within the Egyptian and Jordanian borders. NEOM is made up of 16 economic sectors and seven regions, each with its own distinctive character and appeal.

Sindalah is one of NEOM’s seven regions and is one of a group of islands in the Red Sea that will be developed in NEOM, each according to its unique vision and design. Sindalah will be the first of NEOM’s assets to be unveiled, introducing the world to how the project envisages the future of civilization. Offering its inhabitants an idyllic luxury lifestyle, Sindalah will be home to a luxury marina and yacht club, 9-hole golf course with 18 pin experiences, and several dining destinations. It will also host sophisticated cultural events, grand sporting spectacles and glamorous social celebrations throughout the year.

“Four Seasons upcoming resort in NEOM will be a one-of-a-kind project, blending the natural wonders of the Red Sea with the future-forward technologies on which this new, exciting destination is being built,” says Bart Carnahan, President, Global Business Development and Portfolio Management, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts. “We are proud to be part of the ambitious vision that our partners at NEOM have for transforming the future of hospitality in the region and look forward to welcoming guests to discover a new part of the Kingdom.”

While visiting the resort, guests can choose from four unique culinary experiences, as well as several lounges, in addition to the other dining options on Sindalah. Four Seasons will also offer an expansive spa experience with varying treatment rooms, relaxation lounges, a hammam and vitality pool. For those looking for an active getaway, guests will have access to a fitness centre, multiple indoor and outdoor pools, and a variety of water activities such as water skiing, kite surfing, windsurfing and more. An onsite diving centre will allow guests to explore one of the world’s most sought-after diving destinations and discover the abundant marine life and ecosystems that exist within the Red Sea.

“Sindalah follows NEOM’s vision and purpose of mitigating the impact of unchecked urban development, while protecting and regenerating the rich natural capital of the region. In terms of hospitality, our goal is to shape a new frontier for the industry, and Four Seasons is the perfect partner to work alongside towards this,” says Chris Newman, Executive Director, Hotel Development at NEOM. “While NEOM will have something for every kind of traveller, the resort on Sindalah will be perfect for those looking to rest, relax and explore in the beautiful setting of the Red Sea, while enjoying the service that Four Seasons has built an incredible global reputation on.”

Opening in 2024, Four Seasons Resort Sindalah Island will be an exclusive destination that will cater to discerning travellers who seek bespoke experiences that blend luxury, nature and culture in a stunning setting. Four Seasons Resort Sindalah Island will join Four Seasons Hotel Riyadh at Kingdom Centre as one of the brand’s properties in Saudi Arabia.
