September 2nd, 2024 – Creator of one-of-a-kind hospitality projects, Zannier Hotels, has announced a partnership with NEOM to develop a new luxury eco-resort in Zardun, one of Magna's destinations located in the Northwest of Saudi Arabia on the coast of the Gulf of Aqaba. Overlooking crystalline waters, Zannier Zardun nestles into the exquisite landscape stretching from the mountains to the low hills, across the coastal plain to the sea.

Known for its distinct hotels and resorts that harmonize with their environments, Zannier Hotels is partnering with NEOM to develop Zannier Zardun, a tranquil retreat for discerning guests seeking authentic experiences amidst a breathtaking natural setting.

The resort, situated within the four square kilometers of Zardun in a carefully restored semi-desertic landscape thriving with native fauna and flora, will feature a total of 100 rooms and suites, spread over three striking signature buildings, each themed to offer diverse and breathtaking experiences.

A distinctively unique experience centre welcomes guests through an underground entrance, leading to a 360-degree observation deck that reveals the splendor of Zardun, providing a setting for the most intimate connection between humans and nature.

Guests will enjoy transformative experiences, educational programs on nature conservation and rewilding, and various sports and leisure activities including trekking, mountain biking, rock climbing, stargazing, meditation, and yoga.

"We are thrilled to officialize our collaboration with NEOM" commented Arnaud Zannier, Founder and CEO of Zannier Hotels, highlighting that "this partnership marks a significant milestone, solidifying our position among top-tier hospitality brands. It highlights our ambitious vision and commitment to excellence, serving as both a cornerstone for our brand's evolution and a testament to our emergence as a formidable contender in the luxury hospitality market.

As part of NEOM and Zannier Hotels' dedication to preserving and enhancing the natural environment, the resort will feature a series of lush oases designed to support diverse habitats, aiding the reintroduction of native animal, tree, and plant species.

Zannier Zardun epitomizes NEOM's dedication to crafting unrivaled experiences that celebrate the precious environment and rich heritage of Magna. Together we will carefully and diligently cultivate and conserve the vibrant ecosystem along the coast for future generations” said Jeremy Lester, Executive Director, Magna. “This partnership with Zannier Hotels reflects a unified vision where ultra-luxury and sustainability coexist in perfect harmony. Zannier Zardun charters new horizons, merging our grand ambitions and shared values to create lasting memories for our guests and visitors to cherish.

This project represents another major achievement for Zannier Hotels continuing to make its mark as an ambitious and creative global hospitality brand and a leader in new-generation luxury.

" Zannier Hotels' dedication to authentic experience makes them the ideal partner for Magna. 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."
