Siranna: a NEOM Luxurious Oasis Championing Conservation

NEOM, the ambitious mega development project in Saudi Arabia, fundamentally prioritizes these guiding principles in all of its key concepts: nature, liveability, sustainability, community, and technology. Its Board of Directors continues to unveil visionary projects, with Siranna standing out as an exclusive tourism escape along the Gulf of Aqaba coastline.

A Harmony with Nature

As per the announced specifications and plans for this bold project, Siranna's design philosophy is based on emphasizing minimal intervention in nature, ensuring a balanced coexistence with the surrounding landscape. The architecture, characterized by distinctive hexagonal pillars, is set to seamlessly integrate into the neighboring mountains and valleys, paying homage to the region's heritage. Upon arriving at Siranna via waterborne transportation, guests are meant to be greeted by the sight of towering stone columns seemingly carved into the mountainside, blurring the line between the natural terrain and the man-made environment.

An Oasis of Relaxation and Community

It was highlighted that at Siranna, relaxation and community will be paramount. The destination is set to offer uninterrupted views of the Red Sea, with a cascading design offering various viewpoints for guests. Signature amenities will include a beach club, spas, and state-of-the-art wellness facilities, inviting visitors to unwind and rejuvenate in an effortlessly chic setting. For nature enthusiasts, winding discovery trails will offer opportunities to explore the convergence of sea, mountain, and wadi landscapes, either on foot or horseback.

From sophisticated dining options to engaging entertainment venues, guests are immersed in a world of luxury and refinement. The destination is set to foster a community of like-minded individuals, providing a sanctuary for those seeking an escape from the noise and disruptions of everyday life.

Design by Woods Bagot

The architectural masterpiece of Siranna was crafted by Woods Bagot, a global architecture studio renowned for its innovative designs and multi-authorship approach. The team drew inspiration from forgotten civilizations, envisioning Siranna as a luxurious retreat that blends seamlessly with its surroundings, as if it were an ancient wonder reclaimed by nature and man.

“We imagined that, thousands of years ago, an old civilization built this incredible masterpiece and, through time, nature took over – then we found it and created a luxury hotel.” - Paolo Testolini, Principal, Woods Bagot

Sustainability and Conservation

It was confirmed that this project is set out to be in alignment with NEOM's commitment to conservation as Siranna is designed to complement its coastal location and be developed sustainably. Thoughtful and deliberate techniques are employed to preserve the surrounding landscape, ensuring that Siranna remains a model for sustainable future living. This commitment to sustainability is evident in every aspect of the development, from its architecture and design, to its amenities.

A Vision Meant to Stand the Test of Time

As part of the larger mega project, Siranna embodies NEOM's dedication to creating spaces that support sustainable future living while offering the ultimate luxury hospitality experience.
