During a signing ceremony in Umluj, Saudi Arabia, The Red Sea Development Company (TRSDC) and Mammoet have signed a contract for the Sheybarah Island Resort, a key part of the Red Sea Project in Saudi Arabia. Under the scope of the contract, Mammoet is commissioned to deliver 73 prefabricated villas from Grankraft’s yard to the site and install them onto their foundations: on the beach and over water.
Sheybarah hotel is a 73-key hyper luxury resort on Sheybarah island; located in the south east of the archipelago on the Red Sea. The island is home to a highly diverse environment with mangroves, white sand dune beaches and some of the most beautiful and pristine coral reefs in the world hosting many species of fish and other marine animals.
The resort, designed by Dubai-based architectural firm Killa Design, comprises uniquely shaped overwater and beach villas, arrival, front of house and F&B buildings and other facilities.
The approach to the façade design was to minimize visual impact of the architecture on the environment by employing a highly reflective polished stainless steel cladding that reflects the natural surroundings: the ocean, the sky, sand dunes and the reef below.
