PB hotel design editorial

Coral formations shaped the rooflines. Sand dunes informed the earth-toned walls. At The Red Sea EDITION on Shura Island, Rockwell Group drew every design decision from the surrounding landscape — the canyons, the reefs, the wind-worked dunes — and translated that vocabulary into a low-rise resort of stone and timber pavilions that feel less like architecture imposed on a site than something the site gradually revealed. Custom rooftops across the complex mirror the branching geometry of coral, while exterior terracing steps down through planted gardens toward the water in a rhythm that carries the eye rather than stopping it. The 240 guest rooms and 53 suites maintain that same material discipline indoors. Coral stone floors, earth plaster walls, and natural oak millwork — visible in the slatted room dividers and platform beds — keep the palette grounded and warm without tipping into monotony. The outdoor bar pavilion is the boldest gesture: a vast circular canopy of woven thatching held by timber columns, its interior lit by constellations of pendant lights that give the space the atmosphere of an open-air ceremonial hall. Against that drama, the guestrooms offer considered restraint — linen throws, curved oak stools, sliding shutters framing palm canopies and an improbably blue sea. It is a resort that understands contrast as a form of generosity.

"A fabulous and exotic retreat in the Red Sea, Shura Island. As I conclude my stay at the Edition resort, I am filled with thoughts of the prophet Moses and God's remarkable miracle of opening the Red Sea. I loved my stay, and I can confidently say it's a must-visit destination. The restaurant, Jiwa provided exquisite dinners,extraordinary entertainment and music overlooking the beautiful Red Sea. A destination worth traveling from the United States after visiting the beautiful city of Riyadh, Saudia Arabia."

"My stay at The Red Sea Edition Resort was truly exceptional, offering a perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and outstanding service. The resort itself is beautifully designed and creates a relaxing, high-end atmosphere from the moment you arrive. What made the experience especially memorable was the hospitality. A sincere thank you to Mr. Essam Nugali, the Night Manager, whose genuine care and professionalism truly stood out. He went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, but what made it unique was the personal connection he created. I actually found myself coming to the reception at night just to spend some time chatting with him, sharing stories, and enjoying the moment. He made me feel less like a guest and more like a friend. On the day of my check-out, I was lucky enough that he was there. He was kind enough to take a picture with me, allowing me to keep a special memory from this experience. His warmth, authenticity, and attention to detail elevated the entire stay and made it truly unforgettable. I highly recommend this resort and look forward to returning again."

"A Truly Special Stay – Exceptional in Every Way My recent ten‑night stay at The Red Sea EDITION was absolutely wonderful and genuinely memorable from start to finish. From the moment I arrived, the team made me feel warmly welcomed and beautifully looked after. The service throughout my stay was consistently kind, attentive, and thoughtful—always professional, yet very personal. It’s clear that great pride is taken in creating a relaxed and refined guest experience. The setting is simply stunning, with the hotel seamlessly blending understated luxury, comfort, and tranquility. The rooms were immaculate and beautifully designed, offering the perfect place to unwind after each day. Every detail felt considered and effortless. Dining was another highlight, with excellent food quality and a calm, elegant atmosphere throughout the resort. Whether enjoying a quiet breakfast or a relaxed evening meal, the experience was always enjoyable and unhurried. What truly made this stay so special, however, was the people. Every interaction — from front desk to housekeeping and management — was warm, genuine, and caring. It made a long stay feel like a home away from home. I left feeling refreshed, well looked after, and already hoping to return. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Red Sea EDITION to anyone looking for a truly exceptional and peaceful escape. Thank you to the entire team for such a fantastic experience."

"Without any doubt, this is the best hotel we have ever stayed in. What truly made our experience exceptional was the outstanding attention to detail and genuine care from the team. We would especially like to recognize Sampati Kumar from housekeeping. The way our room was prepared every day was simply remarkable. We always travel with our own neck pillows and usually use hotel pillow covers for them. Sampati Kumar surprised us in the most thoughtful way by arranging custom-made pillow covers specifically for our neck pillows – even embroidered with our initials. Our pillows have been with us in many of the world’s top hotels, but we have never experienced such a personal and attentive gesture. This level of service is truly unique and unforgettable. We would also like to highlight Frances from the beach service. He took exceptional care of us, was incredibly friendly, attentive, and seemed to anticipate our wishes before we even expressed them. As for the hotel itself, it is beautifully embedded within the dunes, offering a very spacious layout and a high level of privacy. We also visited other hotels currently under construction on Shura Island, and in our opinion, The EDITION stands out as truly unique in terms of its location, design, surrounding dunes, and the length and beauty of its beach. The food was excellent and absolutely worth the price. However, as European guests, we would have appreciated a slightly stronger presence of traditional Saudi or Arabic cuisine. We will definitely return."
