The St. Regis Red Sea Resort

What the classifiers highlight

Saudi Arabia's first private island resort, reached only by speedboat or seaplane, was designed by architect Kengo Kuma to integrate the coastline's natural forms into 90 private-pool villas. Forbes highlights the Coral Villas, raised over the water on elevated walkways with bedside blinds that reveal the sea view, plus kayaks and glass-bottom boats from the beach club.
