The 50 Best Hotel Openings of 2025

The Red Sea EDITION, Shura Island, Saudi Arabia

Keys: 240
Design: Rockwell Group
Why we love it: Built with rammed earth, coral stone floors, and natural oak, the resort mirrors the canyons, reefs, and wind-sculpted dunes of Saudi Arabia. Its commitment to place runs deep, not just in its materials but in its systems, too: the entire property is powered by renewable solar energy.
Owner: Red Sea Global | Operator: Marriott International
