Nujuma, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve | Red Sea Project, Saudi Arabia | Virgin Atlantic Holidays

Red Sea Project, Saudi Arabia

5 stars

Welcome to Nujuma, Saudi Arabia’s first overwater Ritz-Carlton Reserve - where barefoot luxury meets desert island drama. Think private villas floating above the Red Sea, your own butler on speed dial, and stargazing mocktails under skies that go on forever. This is five-star travel with a Saudi twist - sustainably powered, impossibly private, and unapologetically indulgent. Want action? The coral’s calling. Snorkel or dive straight into one of the world’s most untouched reef systems. Feeling zen? The Neyrah Spa blends ancient healing rituals with just the right amount of smugness. Kids in tow? They’ll be off hunting treasure and learning local lore while you toast to a few precious moments of quiet. This is Nujuma. And it’s extraordinary.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Extraordinary Family Experience — Unmatched Luxury and Heartfelt Hospitality at Nujuma, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve”

Oct 11, 2025Elye P

Our family stay at Nujuma was absolutely unforgettable. From the moment we arrived by boat, we were greeted with genuine warmth and care that set the tone for an incredible experience. The resort is breathtaking — surrounded by crystal-clear waters, stunning architecture, and a deep sense of peace and privacy. The staff were truly outstanding. A special thank you to Ikbal from the kids’ club, who greeted us upon arrival with thoughtful gifts and a beautiful birthday surprise for our youngest son — including a cake and heartfelt celebration. When she learned my wife was expecting our third baby boy, she went above and beyond to write a handwritten card with three blue stars, a gesture we will never forget. Her kindness and sincerity made our stay deeply personal and meaningful. We would also like to thank Malitha, our personal helper, who was absolutely amazing — attentive, kind, and incredibly efficient. He ensured that every detail of our stay was perfectly arranged and made the entire experience seamless. Ekaterina was also very kind and welcoming, adding to the resort’s warm and caring atmosphere. We had an amazing family time, from peaceful mornings to unforgettable sunsets in the pool. Every moment at Nujuma reflected true luxury combined with genuine human connection. It is a place where beauty, comfort, and heartfelt service come together perfectly. We left feeling deeply grateful — and already dreaming of our next visit to this remarkable resort.

“Best resort in my life”

Our stay at this Red Sea resort was truly exceptional — the best hotel experience we’ve ever had. The service was flawless, the views were breathtaking, and both the resort facilities and the rooms were immaculately maintained. We stayed for four nights, and every single day we found ourselves in awe of how beautiful and peaceful everything was. Having stayed at many luxury resorts in the Maldives, I can confidently say that the sea here is even more stunning — truly beyond comparison. I highly and wholeheartedly recommend this resort to anyone looking for an unforgettable stay. Special thanks to Malitha Sasanka, our butler, who made every moment effortless and delivered truly world-class service throughout our stay. We are deeply grateful for his professionalism and warmth.

“Redefining Luxury in Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

Oct 01, 2025Del A

From the moment you arrive at the Red Sea Airport, you know this is going to be different. No baggage carousels here, your bags are whisked away and you’re escorted into a sleek electric car in exotic colors, then onward to your private boat transfer. By the time you step foot on the island, check-in is already done. No lines, no waiting, you’re taken directly to your villa to begin your vacation instantly. The villas are expansive, beautifully designed, and filled with smart-tech touches. But what makes Nujuma, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve truly unforgettable is the people. The staff makes you feel at home, with every detail seamlessly handled by your personal butler so you never have to lift a finger. The spa, voted Best in the Middle East, lives up to the title. Separate male and female areas with jacuzzi, sauna, and steam, plus a co-ed outdoor vitality pool and cold plunge. Pure bliss. Dining is 5-star across the board, but the standout gem is Sita, where Chef Ralph brings Levantine flavors to life in ways that feel personal and entirely customized. Breakfast and lunch here were some of the best I’ve ever had. Days are filled with world-class diving, water activities, and even stargazing. Every moment feels curated, personal, and unforgettable. Saudi’s Red Sea has officially arrived, and Nujuma rivals even the very best of the Maldives. I’m already excited to return. Special thanks to Suneil, Hatim, Mushari, Tousif, Daya, Vanessar, Camelle, Dennis, Stephan, and of course Chef Ralph, you made our stay truly unforgettable!
