This resort is part of The Red Sea Project, which intends to establish a regenerative tourism destination on Saudi Arabia’s west coast. It was designed by famous architect Kengo Kuma. Here are some important facts regarding this interesting venture:
1. Location: The Ummahat Al Shayk Island Resort is located inside The Red Sea Project’s enormous 28,000 km2 territory.

There are also broad sand dunes, rocky mountain valleys, dormant volcanoes, and old cultural and heritage sites1.
