Welcome to DASSARIS, your premier luxury business blog. Today, we are thrilled to unveil an extraordinary addition to the world of luxury travel: Nujuma, the third resort by The Red Sea, a Ritz Carlton Reserve. Inspired by the Arabic word "Nujum," meaning "stars," Nujuma invites discerning travelers to embark on an uncharted journey to one of the world's most secluded and protected archipelagos. This pristine paradise promises a celestial escape that redefines opulence and exclusivity.
Architectural Brilliance by Foster and Partners
Nujuma’s architectural marvel is the brainchild of the renowned design firm, Foster and Partners. The resort’s sweeping shell-inspired architecture and elegant interiors showcase their mastery in creating spaces that blend contemporary luxury with cultural homage. Crafted with natural materials, the design exudes calming sea and sand tones, complemented by geometric patterns reminiscent of the region’s traditional motifs. This harmonious fusion of modern elegance and cultural reverence sets Nujuma apart as a beacon of sophistication and timeless beauty.
A Celebration of Local Craftsmanship and Culture
The interiors of Nujuma are a celebration of the rich cultural heritage of the Arabian Peninsula. Arabic artifacts, traditional ceramics, woven Saudi patterned rugs, and intricate wall hangings adorn the canopied interiors, creating an ambiance that is both luxurious and deeply rooted in local traditions. This meticulous attention to detail ensures that every corner of the resort tells a story, offering guests an immersive cultural experience.
Lush landscaping featuring indigenous plants further enhances the resort’s allure. These plants elegantly frame the pathways between the pavilioned spaces and villas, providing a serene and verdant backdrop. This thoughtful integration of native flora not only beautifies the environment but also promotes biodiversity, aligning with Nujuma’s commitment to regenerative tourism.
A Sanctuary of Natural Wonders
Nujuma is a sanctuary for diverse ecosystems, making it a paradise for nature enthusiasts. The island’s shores are fringed by rich mangroves, known as one of the most productive ecosystems in the world. Within this lush habitat, visitors can spot a variety of sea birds, marine invertebrates, and the elusive halavi guitarfish. This rich biodiversity offers a unique and enriching experience for eco-conscious travelers.
Luxurious Accommodations: Overwater and Beach Villas
Accessed by chartered boat or seaplane, Nujuma features 63 exquisite overwater and beach villas. These luxurious accommodations range from one to three bedrooms, each offering spacious living areas and private pools that overlook the serene sea. The overwater villas, perched above the cerulean-blue waters, provide panoramic views and direct access to the sea, while the beach villas, nestled on undisturbed soft white sand, are flooded with natural light and refreshing sea breezes.
Each villa is designed to offer an unparalleled sense of privacy and exclusivity. Guests can marvel at the limitless starry night skies from the comfort of their villa, thanks to telescopes positioned on each deck. This unique feature underscores Nujuma’s namesake and allows guests to connect with the celestial beauty that inspired the resort’s creation.

Leading the Way in Regenerative Tourism
The Red Sea, and by extension Nujuma, is at the forefront of the global transition towards regenerative tourism. This innovative approach goes beyond sustainability, aiming to have a positive impact on the environment, society, and the economy.

In addition to its sustainable energy solutions, Nujuma has made significant strides in environmental conservation.

The resort is also part of an ambitious initiative to plant 50 million mangrove seedlings nationally by 2030, contributing to the preservation and expansion of these vital ecosystems.
