Introducing Saudi Arabia's Newest Luxury Resort: The Oberoi Sukoonvilas, Wadi Safar

The mesmerising desert landscape of Wadi Safar is cherished as the birthplace of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Once traversed by merchants travelling myriad trade routes, the region is defined by sweeping valleys, dramatic mountains and enduring traditions.

The Oberoi Sukoonvilas, Wadi Safar is just 45 minutes’ drive from King Khalid International Airport, Riyadh.

Unfurling gracefully and in harmony with nature, The Oberoi Sukoonvilas, Wadi Safar - draws inspiration from traditional Najdi design. Interiors are crafted from natural materials - in relaxing, earthy palettes and feature architectural lines that mirror the contours of the surrounding valleys. Through the heart of the resort runs a grand waterbody. This magnificent focal point nourishes lush gardens planted with indigenous species, creating a tranquil sanctuary deeply connected to the spirit of the landscape.
