Zannier Hotels, renowned for its one-of-a-kind hospitality projects, has announced an exciting partnership with NEOM to develop a new luxury eco-resort, Zannier Zardun, in the stunning region of Zardun, part of the Magna destinations in Northwest Saudi Arabia. Nestled along the pristine Gulf of Aqaba, the resort will offer a unique blend of luxury and sustainability, creating an unparalleled retreat for discerning travellers.
A New Chapter in Luxury Hospitality
Zannier Zardun is set to become a hallmark of luxury eco-tourism, harmoniously integrated into the breathtaking landscape that stretches from mountainous terrain to low coastal hills. Known for its distinct approach to hospitality that emphasises harmony with the environment, Zannier Hotels is bringing its signature style to this tranquil sanctuary. The resort will feature 100 rooms and suites spread across three striking buildings, each designed to offer guests diverse and immersive experiences.
An Oasis of Tranquility and Exploration
Guests at Zannier Zardun will be greeted by a unique experience centre, accessed through an underground entrance that leads to a 360-degree observation deck. From this vantage point, visitors can fully appreciate the splendour of Zardun’s landscape, fostering a deep connection with nature. The resort will offer a wide range of activities, from trekking and mountain biking to stargazing, meditation, and yoga. Additionally, educational programs on nature conservation and rewilding will be available, aligning with the resort’s commitment to preserving and enhancing the local environment.
A Vision of Sustainability and Luxury
Zannier Zardun will play a vital role in NEOM’s broader vision of sustainability and environmental stewardship. The resort will feature lush oases designed to support diverse habitats, aiding in the reintroduction of native species of animals, trees, and plants. This commitment to conservation is a cornerstone of the partnership between Zannier Hotels and NEOM.
“We are thrilled to officialise our collaboration with NEOM,” said Arnaud Zannier, Founder and CEO of Zannier Hotels. “This partnership marks a significant milestone for us, solidifying our position among top-tier hospitality brands. It reflects our ambitious vision and commitment to excellence, and is a testament to our emergence as a formidable contender in the luxury hospitality market.”
A Unified Vision for the Future
Jeremy Lester, Executive Director of Magna, echoed the importance of the collaboration. “Zannier Zardun epitomises NEOM’s dedication to crafting unrivalled experiences that celebrate the precious environment and rich heritage of Magna. This partnership with Zannier Hotels reflects a unified vision where ultra-luxury and sustainability coexist in perfect harmony.”
Chris Newman, Executive Director of NEOM Hotel Division, added, “Our collaboration with Zannier Hotels, a brand that shares our commitment to authenticity, sustainable practices, and creating unique guest experiences rooted in nature, represents a powerful partnership for NEOM. Together, we will create a sanctuary that embraces the stunning natural beauty of the Gulf of Aqaba, pushing boundaries in progressive architecture with the aim to redefine how we travel, stay, and live.”
Zannier’s Signature Touch
Every project under the Zannier Hotels brand is guided by its “Simple Mastery” philosophy, which emphasises customization, immersion, sustainability, and authenticity. The Zannier Interior Design Studio will craft each element of Zannier Zardun, ensuring that the resort offers a uniquely masterful touch that aligns with the natural beauty of its surroundings.
With this new partnership, Zannier Hotels continues to expand its influence in the global luxury hospitality market, reaffirming its commitment to innovation, sustainability, and unforgettable guest experiences.
