About us

InterContinental Hotels & Resorts has delighted luxury travellers since 1946, serving as a meeting place for heads of state, a setting for world‑changing speeches, and the impetus for some of the most famous love stories of all time.

The brand has become synonymous with bold exploration, travel, and cultural discovery. The InterContinental The Red Sea Resort exemplifies these attributes. Set within one of the world’s most ambitious luxury tourism developments amidst an archipelago of over 90 pristine islands, the hotel offers guests sweeping views of the ocean and a discreet barefoot luxury immersed in nature experience.

Each of the resort’s 210 sea‑facing rooms provides immediate beach access, allowing guests to step out onto the sands of the Red Sea from the terrace. Moreover, the resort features seven different gastronomic experiences, sprawling pools and recreational facilities, a spa, a health club and curated meetings and event spaces for leisure, business travellers and groups.

With the worldliness that travel brings, every stay will take your imagination to places you’d never expect!
