After Sunset at The Red Sea EDITION

An Island Stay Structured Around Ramadan Evenings

Ramadan alters the pace of travel.

Days recede. Evenings expand. Movement begins after sunset and continues deep into the night. The Red Sea EDITION’s Ramadan 2026 programme, titled After Sunset, aligns with this rhythm through a stay experience structured entirely around the evening cycle.

Located on Shura Island and connected to the mainland by bridge, the property remains accessible while preserving separation from urban pace. Arrival introduces a different cadence immediately. Light shifts across the water. Sound carries further. Time reorganises itself around sunset rather than schedule.

The programme begins where Ramadan evenings traditionally gather momentum: the table.

At Central, the resort’s main dining space, iftar unfolds within an environment designed to accommodate extended presence rather than quick service. The room draws its structure from the open-plan logic of a plaza, allowing circulation between tables and encouraging continuity across the evening.

The culinary programme alternates between two formats. Weekends introduce a full buffet that brings together regional dishes and international preparations, allowing guests to move freely between stations. Weekdays follow a set-menu structure that supports a slower, more contained progression.

Service continues beyond the meal itself. Conversation extends across seating areas. Movement remains fluid. The transition from iftar to late evening occurs gradually. Suhoor relocates this rhythm to the shoreline. At Jiwa Beach Majlis, seating arrangements face the water, where the presence of the Red Sea establishes the setting’s tone. The open-air configuration allows the environment to shape the experience. Sound becomes minimal. Light settles across the surface of the water. Food appears in measured intervals, supporting sustained conversation rather than structured dining.

The setting encourages duration. Guests remain longer. Time becomes less defined by the clock and more by atmosphere. Accommodation follows the same principle. Rooms are positioned to maintain visual continuity with the surrounding landscape. Interiors prioritise proportion and material clarity, allowing external elements to remain present within the space.

The Red Sea EDITION’s Ramadan programme reflects a broader shift in how hospitality operates during the month. Travel aligns itself with evening activity. Properties adapt their structure accordingly. Programming begins after sunset and extends toward early morning.

The offer remains available for stays between February 17 and March 18, 2026, positioning it within the full span of the Ramadan calendar. Rates begin at SAR 2,700 per room, establishing access to an experience designed around the specific rhythm of the season.

On Shura Island, Ramadan hospitality expands outward, shaped by landscape, water, and the continuity of evening.
