This weekend, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is due to raise the curtain on its eagerly awaited inaugural luxury destination – Sindalah Island.
Located on the coast of the Kingdom’s new NEOM region, Sindalah Island is set to revolutionise high-end tourism in Saudi Arabia, establishing itself as a premier destination for travel enthusiasts. In the process, it is expected to become a pivotal part of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, which aims to redefine the nation’s tourism landscape.
This breathtaking oasis in the Red Sea will also have an influence on the international yachting calendar, offering a new season for superyacht owners and charterers enticed by the crystal clear waters of the Red Sea and the scope for adventure in this part of the world, now substantially more accessible – and more luxurious – than it was previously.
In recent weeks, some of the world’s most glamorous superyachts have flocked to the island, jostling for a position ahead of Red Sea Week and the grand opening of the island.
Among them is the magnificent motor-yacht Sunrays, an 85-metre marvel designed by renowned naval architect Oceanco. Available for charter in the Red Sea region this winter with world-leading yacht brokerage Edmiston, Sunrays redefines luxury on the water.
She accommodates 12 guests and features a master suite on the upper deck, complete with a private terrace and hot tub – an ideal retreat after a day spent exploring the wonders of Sindalah Island. The adjacent VIP suite enhances the living experience with its fold-down balcony.
The interior of Sunrays, crafted by Terence Disdale, epitomises luxury and sophistication. Accommodations include two additional VIP cabins, two doubles, and two twins, ensuring guests enjoy ample comfort.
Beyond her lavish interiors, Sunrays boasts remarkable exterior spaces and potential for all-day activities. An alfresco dining area seats 22, complemented by multiple hot tubs and a spacious pool, perfect for sunny days at sea. As an approved RYA water sports centre, the yacht boasts an impressive array of water toys, including waverunners, SeaBobs, an E-foil and jetskis.
With a long-standing and experienced charter crew of 29, every aspect of service is carefully considered, allowing for a truly indulgent experience.
For those inspired by this weekend’s coverage of Sindalah’s unveiling, Sunrays is ready to deliver unforgettable experiences in the Red Sea. She is available for charter in the region this winter, as well as across the Mediterranean next summer. Her weekly rate starts at €1,150,000.
