Miraval The Red Sea introduces a completely new concept of luxury hospitality, where wellbeing is not an added feature but the very foundation of the entire experience.

It is not simply a place to stay, but a destination designed to inspire reflection, balance, and meaningful change.
As the first full-scale international resort from the renowned Miraval brand, the property brings decades of wellness expertise to a spectacular new setting. Located on Shura Island, the heart of The Red Sea destination, the resort stretches across more than three million square feet of pristine coastline. Surrounded by lagoons, coral reefs, and desert landscapes, it offers a rare sense of space and serenity that immediately sets the tone for a deeply personal journey.

At the core of Miraval lies a simple yet powerful idea: life is better when it is lived in balance. Since its founding in 1995, the brand has focused on helping individuals reconnect with themselves by aligning physical, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing. This philosophy is not presented as a rigid program but as an open invitation. Every guest is encouraged to explore what balance means to them personally.
At Miraval The Red Sea, this philosophy becomes tangible in every detail. Guests are gently guided to disconnect from distractions and reconnect with their inner world. Mindfulness is not limited to meditation sessions or wellness classes; it is embedded into the rhythm of the entire stay. From the calm pace of the environment to the intentional design of spaces, everything supports presence and awareness.
The resort emphasizes choice rather than structure. Unlike traditional wellness retreats that follow strict schedules, Miraval allows guests to create their own path. This freedom ensures that each journey feels authentic and deeply personal.
The location of Miraval The Red Sea is one of its most defining features. Shura Island sits within an archipelago of more than 90 untouched islands along Saudi Arabia's west coast. The surrounding environment is remarkably diverse, with coral reefs, calm lagoons, desert dunes, and distant mountain landscapes creating a constantly shifting natural backdrop.
The climate further enhances the experience. With over 360 days of sunshine each year and gentle sea breezes, conditions are ideal for outdoor activities and relaxation in every season. The warm waters of the Red Sea, which remain inviting throughout the year, add another dimension to the sense of escape and wellbeing.
Despite its secluded atmosphere, the resort is surprisingly accessible. Guests arrive via Red Sea International Airport, followed by a short transfer across one of the longest overwater bridges in the region. This seamless journey ensures that the transition from everyday life into a world of tranquility feels effortless.
The design of Miraval The Red Sea reflects a deep respect for its surroundings. Created by the acclaimed architecture firm Foster + Partners, the resort takes inspiration from the natural forms of the Red Sea region. The concept of a "Coral Bloom" shapes the layout, echoing the organic patterns of coral reefs and native flora.
Buildings appear to flow naturally from the landscape, with soft lines and open spaces that encourage movement and reflection. Interiors, designed by the Rockwell Group, continue this connection to nature through textures, colors, and materials that mirror the environment outside.
The result is an atmosphere that feels both luxurious and understated. Instead of overwhelming the senses, the design creates calm and clarity. Guests are not distracted by excess but supported by a setting that enhances mindfulness and relaxation.
The resort offers 180 guestrooms, suites, and villas, each designed as a personal sanctuary. Every space is carefully crafted to encourage rest, reflection, and comfort. Natural materials, soft lighting, and open layouts create a sense of calm that immediately invites guests to slow down.
Rooms are equipped with thoughtful elements that support mindfulness, including meditation cushions, singing bowls, and dedicated content for relaxation. Even small rituals, such as enjoying a quiet cup of tea in the morning, become meaningful moments of connection.
For those seeking additional privacy, the villas provide an elevated experience. Ranging from one to four bedrooms, these residences combine spacious living areas with beachfront settings and private outdoor terraces. They are ideal for small groups, retreats, or guests who simply want a deeper level of seclusion.
Experiences at Miraval The Red Sea are designed to support growth, discovery, and renewal. Guests can choose from a wide range of activities that span physical movement, creative expression, and inner exploration.
Wellness practices such as yoga, meditation, and breathwork form the foundation of the program. These are complemented by more unique offerings, including stargazing experiences, Bedouin storytelling, and cultural rituals inspired by the region. Outdoor adventures such as kayaking allow guests to connect with the natural environment in an active way.
Creative and culinary experiences add another dimension. Guests can participate in cooking classes, learn about nutrition, or explore artistic expression through hands-on workshops. Each activity is guided by expert specialists who tailor their approach to the individual needs of each guest.
This variety ensures that no two stays are the same. Whether someone is seeking relaxation, inspiration, or personal transformation, the resort provides the tools and environment to support that journey.
At the center of the resort lies the Life in Balance Spa, a space dedicated entirely to healing and renewal. Covering nearly 3,700 square meters, the spa offers an extensive range of treatments and facilities designed to restore balance on every level.
The treatment menu includes everything from traditional therapies such as massage and Ayurveda to advanced bodywork and holistic wellness programs. Many treatments are inspired by the local culture and environment, creating a connection between global expertise and regional heritage.
The spa itself is an experience. Guests move through relaxation lounges, salt rooms, hydrotherapy pools, and serene courtyards that encourage a gradual transition into deeper states of calm. Indoor and outdoor treatment spaces allow the surrounding landscape to become part of the healing process.
This holistic approach ensures that wellbeing is not limited to a single treatment but becomes an ongoing journey throughout the stay.
Dining at Miraval The Red Sea reflects the same philosophy of balance and mindfulness. Meals are designed to nourish both body and mind, using fresh, seasonal ingredients and creative culinary techniques.
The main restaurant offers a variety of healthy dishes throughout the day, while the café provides lighter options such as smoothies, snacks, and specialty beverages. Guests can also participate in interactive cooking sessions, learning how to prepare nutritious meals that they can incorporate into their daily lives.
The focus is not on restriction but on awareness. Guests are encouraged to explore flavors, textures, and ingredients in a way that feels enjoyable and sustainable. This approach transforms dining into an integral part of the overall wellness experience.
Miraval The Red Sea operates on an all-inclusive model that removes many of the typical concerns associated with luxury travel. Accommodation, meals, selected group activities, and access to facilities form the inclusive package, allowing guests to fully focus on their personal journey.
The resort also follows a no-tipping policy, creating a more relaxed and seamless atmosphere. Fee-based treatments, premium experiences, and other exclusions should be checked against the booked package.
This simplicity aligns perfectly with the overall philosophy of mindfulness. By removing distractions, the resort allows guests to be fully present in each moment.
While the resort is ideal for individual retreats, it is also designed for shared experiences. Corporate groups, couples, and families with adult children can all benefit from the environment of connection and reflection.
Group activities encourage communication and collaboration, making the resort an excellent setting for leadership development or team building. At the same time, social groups and couples can deepen their relationships through shared experiences and meaningful conversations.
Even within a group setting, the emphasis on individuality remains. Each guest is free to explore their own path while still being part of a larger shared journey.
Miraval The Red Sea is part of a larger vision to create a sustainable luxury destination along the Red Sea coast. The surrounding region is one of the most biologically diverse marine environments in the world, and protecting this ecosystem is a central priority.
The resort integrates sustainable practices into its operations, from design and construction to daily guest experiences. This commitment ensures that the natural beauty of the region can be preserved for future generations while still offering a world-class luxury experience.
Miraval The Red Sea is more than a resort. It is a place where luxury meets purpose, where every detail is designed to support personal growth and wellbeing. From its breathtaking natural setting to its thoughtful design and immersive experiences, it offers a unique opportunity to step away from the demands of everyday life and reconnect with what truly matters.
Guests leave not only feeling rested but also inspired, with new perspectives and tools that can be integrated into their daily lives. In this way, the impact of a stay at Miraval extends far beyond the time spent at the resort itself. It is a destination that does not just promise relaxation, but transformation.
Shura Island's mangroves and coastal lagoons bring a nature-focused setting to the retreat, with kayaking offering an active way to explore.
Arabic calligraphy and perfume-blending experiences connect creative time with the Saudi setting, offering a regional dimension beyond exercise and spa treatments.
The private Majlis Spa Suite combines a hammam with multiple treatment rooms, allowing friends to organise a shared spa experience separately.
