About InterContinental The Red Sea Resort

History

InterContinental The Red Sea Resort is a purpose-built luxury resort on Shura Island, the main hub of Saudi Arabia's vast Red Sea regenerative-tourism destination developed by Red Sea Global, an affiliate of the Kingdom's Public Investment Fund. IHG signed the management agreement in 2021, and after a phased development that saw Shura Island open its first three resorts in September 2025, the InterContinental welcomed its very first guests on 1 December 2025.

Set against the turquoise waters and coral reefs of the Red Sea, the resort was conceived around principles of regenerative hospitality and forms part of a marquee cluster of ultra-luxury flags on Shura Island. It carries the InterContinental banner — the world's first and largest luxury hotel brand — as one of the destination's flagship openings.
