Habitas Five Star Hotel in Saudi Arabia

 

Sustainability is a key consideration: The entire resort will be free of single-use plastics and much of the power will be supplied by solar panels. There will also be a wellness center — for yoga sessions and spa treatments — and a pool, plus a restaurant featuring “Middle Eastern cuisine,” Habitas says. But key to the whole experience is the unique Habitas model, which centers the hotel around shared “rituals,” like sunset ceremonies, a “sound sensorama,” and bracelet gifting. As the brand’s poetic manifesto reads: “We believe that beauty, love, and sharing combined with elevated, mind-blowing experiences are needed now more than ever. We believe that the world needs new spaces, places, homes, and temples, where like-minded souls can connect and grow, and dance until 4 a.m.”
