The Ritz-Carlton is set to open in AMAALA
The Ritz-Carlton, AMAALA will be the fourth property operated by Marriott International in the Red Sea Global portfolio…
The Ritz-Carlton is headed to AMAALA. Set within a landscape of natural sand dunes on the northernmost point of Triple Bay, the 391-key property will bring The Ritz-Carlton’s legendary service and distinctive design to the destination.
With spectacular views of the Red Sea, Marina Village, and the Hijaz mountains, the resort’s design will integrate seamlessly with its natural surroundings, with 80 per cent of the guestrooms slated to offer water-facing views.
The dunes will also serve as a native canopy, offering guests both internal and external shaded spaces.
Designed by Foster + Partners, The Ritz-Carlton, AMAALA is expected to reflect the local architecture of Al Wajh, the nearby seaside town on the Red Sea. Expect a sophisticated aesthetic that will embody timeless elegance and thoughtfully blend traditional influences, architecture, interior design, and craftsmanship.
A sanctuary for relaxation and rejuvenation, guests can look forward to the hotel’s many facilities and culinary venues, including sunset restaurants overlooking the Red Sea. The luxury property will also feature lavish fitness and recreational centres, a world-class spa, an adult pool, a family pool, and a rock pool.
Plus, with direct access to the beachfront and a swimmable coastline, the resort will also offer extensive fitness, sports, and wellness facilities, including outdoor sporting activities.
Planning an event at The Ritz-Carlton, AMAALA? It will have a state-of-the-art ballroom, meeting spaces, and expansive event space that could accommodate up to 1,500 guests, which is ideal for weddings, conferences, and corporate banquets.
Set to open in 2025 as part of the gigaproject’s Phase One, The Ritz-Carlton, AMAALA will be the largest property at the world’s first global integrated wellness destination.
Once complete, AMAALA will be home to more than 4,000 hotel rooms across 30 hotels and approximately 1,200 luxury residential villas, apartments, and estate homes, supporting high-end retail, fine dining, wellness and recreational facilities.
