Revealed at the World Travel Market in London, Shebara promises an unparalleled experience on Sheybarah Island, situated in the thriving Al Wajh Lagoon at The Red Sea destination.

John Pagano, Group CEO of RSG, said in the official press release, “It has long been our mission to extend our pioneering approach to regenerative tourism across a wider portfolio of brands and subsidiary companies, to create an ecosystem that will drive meaningful change in the global tourism industry. Shebara is a beacon for all that RSG stands for, showcasing the very best in Saudi hospitality while setting new standards in responsible development and sustainable operations.”

Shebara's Distinctive Features

Iconic Design: Developed by the renowned UAE-based architecture firm Killa Design, Shebara's design mirrors the natural environment. Stainless steel orbs, resembling a string of pearls, levitate above the water, reflecting the ocean's colors and the sky's intensity.

Location: Nestled on Sheybarah Island, Shebara boasts a spectacular 30 to 40-meter reef drop-off, providing an ideal spot for exploring ocean life. Guests can arrive via a scenic 45-minute boat ride or a quick 20-minute seaplane journey.

Accommodations: The resort comprises 73 keys, including overwater and beach villas. The southern approach reveals the stunning stainless steel villas, forming a pendant around a reception building carefully positioned within a natural break in the coral reef.

Exclusive Island Experience: For those seeking an exclusive retreat, Shebara offers the furthermost island with a dedicated jetty for private yacht mooring. It features a four-bedroom villa, three one-bedroom villas, a private beach, and a barbecue area.

Amenities: Shebara caters to diverse preferences with both family and adult-only pools, two specialty restaurants, a spa, and a fitness center nestled among the island's sand dunes.

Emphasizing sustainability, Shebara is fully powered by sunlight through its dedicated solar farm, boasting over 11,000 photovoltaic panels. RSG's commitment to renewable energy extends to five solar farms powering the first phase of The Red Sea destination.

Shebara's launch aligns with the remarkable growth of tourism in Saudi Arabia. With tourism's GDP share rising from 3% in 2019 to an impressive 7%, the kingdom has revised its 2030 target to host 150 million visitors. The Red Sea, already welcoming its first guests, anticipates completion in 2030, featuring 50 resorts and a host of amenities across 22 islands and six inland sites.

Shebara emerges as a beacon of luxury, seamlessly blending modern indulgence with a profound commitment to the environment. As part of RSG's portfolio, it stands poised to contribute to the flourishing tourism sector while setting new standards in regenerative tourism and unforgettable hospitality.
