Two New Towers Planned for Saudi Arabia’s NEOM as Kingdom’s Building Boom Continues with Epicon

Two new towers aimed at attracting tourists to the Gulf of Aqaba in Saudi Arabia are set to be built in the special economic zone of NEOM as part of a new development launched last week called Epicon.

The towers – 225 metres and 275 metres in height respectively – will form part of the luxury coastal tourism destination Epicon, which joins Sindalah Island, Trojena, and the recently-launched Leyja.

The project is being billed as a “shimmering sanctuary that elegantly stands out from the coastal plain at the northern limits…Here, people will be able to enjoy unequalled service amid a transcendental landscape. A place for free-thinkers and free-spirits, the starting point of great adventures,” NEOM said in a release on the project.

They will house a 41-key hotel and luxury residences comprising 14 suites and apartments close to the Epicon resort, which will offer 120 rooms and 45 residential beach villas.

Hong Kong-based architecture firm 10 Design has designed the towers.

Epicon’s guests and residents “can expect a truly immersive and life-affirming experience. The luxurious residences and beach villas aim to deliver new levels of livability through cutting-edge innovations, world-class services and first-class experiences, positioning the resort as a benchmark for iconic living,” NEOM says.

Leyja, which was the most recent announcement, is being developed within a natural Wadi, with 120 rooms split between three properties sitting between 400m-high mountains.
