The Red Sea EDITION Opens as the First Hotel on Shura Island, in Saudi Arabia

Set along the white sand shores of Shura Island on Saudi Arabia’s western coastline, EDITION reveals its second gem in the country with the opening of The Red Sea EDITION, following its category-defining debut in Jeddah last year.

Synonymous with redefining the codes of traditional luxury, the newest EDITION unlocks the wonders of The Red Sea as the premiere hotel to launch on the pristine island and embodies the country’s visionary roadmap.

The Red Sea EDITION is nestled along a kilometre of private beachfront with sweeping, uninterpreted views across The Red Sea’s turquoise waters and the lush greenery of Shura Links, Saudi Arabia’s first 18-hole island golf course designed by world-renowned golf architect Brian Curley.

Once complete, Shura Island will be home to a collection of world-class resorts, marinas, entertainment, dining and leisure facilities, aligning with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 to position the country as a global hub for luxury tourism and regenerative development. This extraordinary location is part of an archipelago of 90 untouched islands, fringed by the world’s fourth-largest barrier reef and home to flourishing coral gardens, crystalline lagoons, and thriving marine life.

The Red Sea EDITION represents an exceptional collaboration between Marriott International, EDITION Hotels and Red Sea Global (RSG), the pioneering developer committed to shaping the future of travel through a regenerative approach balancing ecological protection and enhancement with world-class guest experiences. RSG’s vision underpins every detail of the resort, from its 100 percent solar-powered infrastructure to its integration within one of the world’s most ecologically ambitious hospitality projects.

Upon arrival at the Red Sea International Airport, guests are whisked away on a scenic desert drive leading to Saudi Arabia’s longest internal bridge that links the mainland to Shura Island. At the end of a palm-lined driveway, the hotel unfolds as a series of low stone and wooden pavilions perched on white sand beachfront. The property is deeply rooted in the EDITION brand’s strong sense of refined simplicity and style. The property showcases 240 elegantly designed guest rooms, including 53 one- and two-bedroom suites, outdoor pools, a spa and gym, as well as lounges, sea- and pool-front dining, and signature restaurants.
