Amaala‘s first guests are expected next year

Saudi Arabian developer Red Sea Global has made significant progress on its Amaala wellness project, with contracts worth more than $6 billion awarded to date.

Red Sea Global is the developer behind Amaala and The Red Sea. The former is a luxury wellness destination on the Red Sea coast of Saudi Arabia.

“We have achieved remarkable progress across every aspect of Amaala, from our signature resorts and immersive experiences to essential utilities and infrastructure,” said John Pagano, group CEO of Red Sea Global.

“Our unwavering focus is on infusing sustainability and regenerative principles into every facet of the development. Once complete, Amaala will present an extraordinary collection of assets and experiences that will elevate wellness, lifestyle, and human connection.”

To date, Red Sea Global has awarded more than 600 contracts on Amaala worth nearly SAR 23bn ($6.13bn).

Nearing completion at Amaala are the marina, village and yacht club at Triple Bay, the destination’s first phase.

Work on the wellness core is also progressing. Here, guests will find world-leading wellness resorts like Jayasom and Clinique La Prairie.

Additionally, steel and façade works at Amaala’s marine life institute, called Corallium, are well advanced. The reef-inspired building is now visibly taking shape.

Amaala resorts to open in 2025

Infrastructure works are heading towards completion, and Red Sea Global expects to plant three million plants and trees before the end of this year.

Work is progressing in Triple Bay’s central area, where the Rosewood, Six Senses and Four Seasons properties are set to open in 2025.

Once complete, Amaala will feature nearly 4,000 hotel rooms across 30 hotels, in addition to 1,200 luxury villas, apartments and homes. There will be retail, dining and wellness facilities, and Amaala will be powered entirely by solar energy.
