retreat that embodies sustainability, culture, and modern adventure. Set among the otherworldly landscapes of AlUla — one of the Kingdom’s most breathtaking heritage destinations — the resort redefines the meaning of connection, blending immersive design with natural beauty. Each villa is harmoniously integrated into the desert terrain, offering panoramic views of sandstone cliffs, star-filled skies, and endless silence that invites introspection.


Opened in 2021, this property is part of the acclaimed Habitas Collection, known for crafting soulful stays rooted in community and sustainability. Guests can explore the ancient Nabatean tombs of Hegra, wander through desert art installations, or join cultural workshops before returning to the resort’s serene pool and open-air lounge for golden-hour cocktails. Every moment at Our Habitas AlUla feels cinematic — sunrise yoga surrounded by cliffs, dinner under the stars, and spa rituals inspired by Arabian wellness traditions.


This isn’t just a hotel stay — it’s an immersive journey through AlUla’s natural and cultural heritage, designed for those seeking connection, creativity, and calm in one of the world’s most awe-inspiring landscapes.
