After years of meticulous planning and development, Six Senses Southern Dunes has unveiled itself as a true paradise at Saudi Arabia’s sprawling Red Sea Global mega tourism project.
Nestled between the towns of Umluj and Al Wajh, the resort sits majestically amidst the beautiful Hijaz Mountains, surrounded by volcanic rocks, imposing mountain ranges, vast golden sand dunes and incredible views of the Red Sea coastline.
Located just one hour’s drive from the Kingdom’s new international airport, Six Senses Southern Dunes is one of the first luxury hotels to open its doors at the huge Red Sea Development.
Designed by renowned architectural firm Foster + Partners, the resort features clusters of luxurious suites and villas with tent-inspired structures echoing the region’s desert flowers. Featuring 40 suites, guests can relax in open-plan bedrooms, spacious living areas and private outdoor terraces with panoramic Red Sea views. In addition the villas will offer options of one to four bedrooms.
At the heart of the resort is the lush Oasis, a social hub housing a lobby lounge, boutiques, prayer rooms and meeting spaces ideal for events. An Artisan Village hosts cultural experiences showcasing regional arts, crafts, music and dance. The all-day restaurant offers global cuisine alongside a chef’s table, juice bar and craft beverage programs.
Sustainability remains a core pillar – Southern Dunes is the first hotel in the kingdom powered entirely by solar energy. An on-site plant produces still and sparkling water. Plastic-free practices minimise environmental impact while guests dine on fresh, local produce.
