The four Seasons Private Residences is nearing completion in Jeddah, transforming the port city’s skyline with its architecturally striking towers that are linked by the largest suspended bridges in the Middle East.

Construction has been completed on these bridges, which are set to earn a spot in the Guiness World Records.   Spanning a staggering 60 m in length and perched 130 m above sea level, each bridge boasts eight floors and weighs a hefty 2,500 tons. This innovative design is expected to secure a place in the Guinness World Records upon completion.

Beyond the record-breaking bridges, the Four Seasons Private Residences – which has been designed by renowned architecture firm SOM – offers a haven of luxury living. The development comprises 249 luxurious guest rooms and suites catering to discerning travellers. Additionally, 21 serviced apartments cater to both short- and long-term stays, while 76 private residences, including exclusive penthouses, provide opulent homes.

The interiors of these residences are designed to impress, featuring a tasteful blend of luxurious finishes and expansive living spaces. Residents can expect spa-inspired bathrooms, marble-clad interiors, and expansive outdoor terraces showcasing breathtaking vistas of the Red Sea.

“This project marks a turning point in architectural excellence and luxury living for Jeddah,” says Rasha Al Othaim, Head of Marketing and PR at Riyadh-based Midad Real Estate Investment & Development Company, the developer of the project. “It embodies Saudi Arabia’s vision for the future to create high-end mega-developments that redefine living environments.”

Al Othaim further highlights the project’s significance for Jeddah’s burgeoning tourism industry. “As Jeddah strengthens its position as a leading tourist destination and a gateway to the Holy Mosques, this development not only complements its role as a dynamic commercial hub but also adds a unique cultural tapestry that will attract visitors from around the world,” she adds.

The Four Seasons Private Residences Jeddah project represents a significant expansion for Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts in Saudi Arabia, according to Bart Carnahan, President, Global Business Development and Portfolio Management for the hospitality group. “This project will be a perfect addition to our existing and future hotels in this important destination,”  he adds.
