Laheq: The First Private Saudi Island to Obtain Light at Last

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is announcing a new change in housing and urban planning with the launch of the Laheq Island project, the nation’s first private residential island, in the Red Sea. This island is home to an archipelago of dozens of immaculate islands.

In addition to offering residential units, the project introduces a novel idea for residential communities—one in which sustainable infrastructure and privacy coexist and real estate investment and the objectives of national transformation are intertwined. Here are the specifics!

Laheq Island is a perfect destination for those who love the natural world and the marine environment. It is part of an archipelago of 92 pristine islands on the kingdom’s western coast, encircled by one of the world’s largest coral reefs, and is home to over 2,000 rare and unique fish species.

Nature-Inspired Design

The harmony of the land, sea, sky, and native vegetation inspires the residential buildings on Laheq Island. Building canopies and adorning balconies, gardens, and sophisticated outdoor courtyards with natural wood reflects the essence of the island and promotes environmental harmony.

The island provides a wide range of recreational amenities and exciting activities to meet the needs of both locals and tourists. The marina has training facilities for sailing and water sports and 115 berths. Besides that, the island has a fitness centre, sports courts, a tennis club, a charming 18-hole golf course, and a well-planned park for wildlife lovers.

Moreover, the Red Sea Development Company has a dedication to coral reef conservation and rehabilitation and related marine ecosystems of the Red Sea, planting 50 million mangrove trees and enhancing the quality of their habitats. The Red Sea Project will be the world’s largest destination when it gets done, with all of its resorts and facilities—including Laheq Island—being powered solely by renewable energy.

Anticipated Debut in 2028

The Red Sea Development Company’s CEO, John Pagano, affirmed that the opening of Laheq Island is a significant step towards realising Saudi Vision 2030. The company’s goal is to build private residential communities that support economic diversification, generate high-quality employment opportunities, and help establish the Kingdom as a world-class place to live, work, and travel.

When the island opens in 2028, it will be the first project in the area to concentrate on residential ownership, enhancing the experience with first-rate hospitality amenities and services that satisfy the most exacting requirements for privacy and luxury.

According to John Pagano, CEO of The Red Sea Development Company, Laheq Island will provide a posh lifestyle in a unique setting for residents who have decided to own homes there and tourists looking for a remarkable residential experience. The island will offer a thriving community that fortifies ties between people and a long-lasting sense of stability and belonging.

Pagano added that the business, which has made a name for itself as a developer of upscale and environmentally friendly travel destinations, is now expanding its scope as it becomes a fully integrated real estate developer and operator. He underlined that this strategy supports the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030 by creating private residential communities that strengthen the Kingdom’s standing as a top location for travel, employment, and living. It also increases economic diversification and provides citizens with high-calibre career opportunities.

In conclusion, Laheq Island provides a distinctive residential experience with the dedicated Celine Villas, Four Seasons Residences, Ritz-Carlton Reserve Residences, and Miraval Residences, offering a range of choices to accommodate various preferences.
