Desert Rock Resort | Red Sea Project, Saudi Arabia | Virgin Atlantic Holidays

Red Sea Project, Saudi Arabia

5 stars

Tucked away in Saudi Arabia’s wild Hejaz Mountains, Desert Rock Resort is where futuristic design meets ancient landscape, and yes, it’s every bit as jaw-dropping as it sounds. Think villas carved into cliffs, floating pools with views for days, and desert adventures that’ll have your camera roll working overtime. This isn’t just another luxury escape it’s a one-of-a-kind eco-luxe experience where five-star meets five-billion-star (hello, desert stargazing). From spa sessions in cave suites to dining under the stars, it’s the ultimate switch-off spot. And the best bit? It’s all just a short hop from the Red Sea coast.

“Exceptional service and hospitality at Desert Rock”

Oct 23, 2025laurakboscacci

Our stay at Desert Rock was made truly unforgettable thanks to the exceptional presence of Fitra, our private concierge. From the moment we arrived, she embodied the very best of Desert Rock hospitality : elegant, attentive, and effortlessly efficient. Always warm and genuinely kind, she anticipated every need before we even voiced it, ensuring that every aspect of our stay unfolded with perfect harmony. Fitra didn’t just organize; she orchestrated our entire experience with care and precision, always paying attention to the smallest details and understanding exactly what would make each moment special. She introduced us to the resort’s many activities and services with remarkable knowledge and passion, adding depth and meaning to everything we discovered. Beyond her professionalism, it was her warmth and personal touch that made the difference, she turned a magical stay into a truly memorable experience. Overall, the service at Desert Rock is outstanding, attentive, discreet, and deeply genuine . We are very grateful
