Capella Hotels & Resorts announces new resort in NEOM

Capella Hotels and Resorts has announced its first coastal destination against the backdrop of desert mountains and the Gulf of Aqaba coastline in Saudi Arabia. Set within NEOM at Elanan, the resort features 80 rooms and suites. The resort will also have an exclusive wellness retreat driven by Capella Wellness.

Paying homage to the region, it incorporates interlocking geometric shapes that evoke a modern aesthetic reminiscent of Nature. Guests can explore expansive plazas, unwind amidst the gardens or marvel at the views from the observation tower's summit.

The resort, influenced by its coastal region, indulges guests in a variety of unique flavours crafted by an international line-up of chefs helming the kitchen. Private dining options are also available with bespoke experiences extended for special occasions.

Cristiano Rinaldi, President, Capella Hotel Group, said, “We are thrilled to collaborate with NEOM in unveiling our second property in the Middle East. Combining Saudi Arabia's breathtaking natural landscapes with NEOM's innovative technology, we are poised to provide guests with an unparalleled wellness experience that promises delight and discovery.”

"The partnership with Capella Hotels and Resorts seamlessly combines their esteemed luxury, wellness, and exceptional culinary experiences with NEOM's dedication to regenerative tourism, ensuring guests an innovative and revitalising escape on the stunning shores of the Red Sea," shared Chris Newman, Executive Director, NEOM Hotel Division.
