Shear Resort, Saudi Arabia

Opened at the end of 2024, Shebara has swiftly made a name as one of the best and most exclusive beach resorts in the world.

With just 73 villas (spread between overwater and beach) it stands out with a very unique and futuristic design. If you’ve seen photos of Shebara resort before, you most likely must have believed that it was AI generated.

The UFO-shaped villas are spacious and super comfortable with large private pools and the most amazing bed we’ve ever stayed at.

The property itself feels brand new, and while the vegetation still needs a few more years to grow nicely, everything there feels super luxurious and exclusive.

Service is extremely personnalised and the spa is one of the best in the world, with, without a doubt, the most comfortable massage bed we’ve tried in our life.

As it is located on the Saudi Arabia coast of the Red Sea, it also gives you access to some untouched reefs for snorkeling. We only had the chance to snorkel for 45 minutes, but we are already looking forward to going back and do way more snorkeling and diving, given how beautiful the reef was.

If you are looking for the best and most exclusive resorts in the world, Shebara SHOULD be on your list! Learn more in our detailed review of Shebara Resort.
