Red Sea Global’s Amaala, the wellness haven and luxe yachting destination, has partnered with Equinox to establish the Equinox Resort Amaala hotel on the west coast of Saudi Arabia. British studio Foster + Partners have been roped in to shape the newest address of luxury, and they, as creatures of habit, don’t disappoint. Heavily inspired by the pristine and preserved natural environments in Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea, the resort features a circular “floating” canopy and will be a part of the exclusive Amaala Marina Village.


The Equinox Resort Amaala Hotel guests will be gripped with a luxurious take on sports, fitness, and lifestyle. The property will feature 128 keys, including two luxury penthouses. The world of wellness is incomplete without a touch of gourmet to feed the soul. Equinox Resort Amaala will be home to several world-class culinary concepts from the best in the business. Luxe amenities include a magnesium salt rooftop pool, spa, Beach Club, and a signature Equinox Fitness Club.
