Shaden Resort Alula

Alula is one of the most famous and beautiful regions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. If you want to explore the region while getting back to nature then Shaden Resort is a charming place to stay.

As one of the oldest cities in the Arabian Peninsula and home to Hegra – a UNESCO World Heritage Site there’s loads to see. As well as the dramatic rock formations, dunes, valleys and stun-ning landscape there are preserved tombs, historic dwellings, monuments and more to explore – spanning 200,000 years of history. You can book on tours to see the surrounding area, and also soak in the beautiful surroundings from the resort.

Shaden Resort is made up of 121 deluxe rooms and villas – all of which have a private terrace or balcony. Looking for extra privacy? You can opt for a room with a private pool. If you’re travelling with the family there’s the six-bedroom Royal Suite, which also has four bath-rooms.

Peckish? There’s casual restaurant Shaden Restaurant that is open all year round and serves traditional cuisine, meanwhile in peak season there are three other restaurants to choose from too. Check out Fish Market – serving seafood with a Middle Eastern twist, Holi – Indian cuisine and Outback Steakhouse, which serves, as you’d expect, top-class steaks.

There’s an outdoor pool while the resort itself is set in stunning surroundings making it a unique place to stay.
