Rating8.7The Murjana Waterpark is the anchor activity—11 slides and multiple pool types across 42,000 sqm, included for all guests. Beyond the waterpark, the activities program is broad: structured fitness classes, water sports, kids and teens clubs (both running 10 AM–9 PM), and nightly live entertainment. The 111-meter main pool doubles as a serious lap swimming option. Most activities are walk-in; the waterpark, fitness classes, and sports courts should not need advance booking.
111 meters long—genuinely the longest in the Middle East and functional for actual lap swimming, not just lounging. The scale means it rarely feels overcrowded even at peak times. All guests, no age restrictions.
Fully enclosed outdoor pool for female guests. The seclusion is genuine—not just a rope divider. Allows swimming without conservative swimwear requirements. Quiet during peak children's hours.
A calmer alternative to the main pool and waterpark facilities. The adults-only designation is enforced. Best for morning swims before the rest of the resort fully activates.
Wave simulation pool inside the waterpark. The waves are programmed on intervals—check the schedule posted at the entrance. Popular with teenagers and adults, though families with small children should use the Splash Zone instead.
Lazy river circuit within the waterpark. Gentle current, good for extended floating. Lower intensity than the slides, making it accessible for guests of all ages.
Dedicated children's area with shallow water, spray features, and interactive elements. Designed for under-8s. Supervised and enclosed, allowing parents to relax nearby.
600-meter Red Sea beach. The Red Sea water here is warm, clear, and calm—genuinely good for swimming. Modest swimwear is permitted and expected. Sun umbrellas provided. Snorkeling equipment available from the beach. The beach quality is a legitimate draw; not every Saudi resort has this length of private sand.
Completely enclosed beach section exclusively for female guests, running parallel to the main beach. Allows full freedom of swimwear choice. This is a major facility for Saudi female guests.
Exclusive beach access for Overwater Villa Privé and Villa Privé guests. Higher service level, more privacy. If you're paying for the premium villa categories, this is part of what justifies the rate.
42,000 sqm integrated waterpark with 11 slides including Nash's Wild Rapids, Golden Wing Vortex, and Emerald Drop, plus a Wave Pool Lagoon and Murjana River Adventure Pool. Included for all guests. This is Saudi Arabia's first hotel-integrated waterpark of this scale—the main reason families choose this property over other Red Sea resorts.
Red Sea snorkeling directly off the private beach with resort-provided equipment. The Red Sea is genuinely good for snorkeling—clear visibility and reef fish. Included in the all-inclusive rate.
Floodlit courts for evening play. Walk-in access, included. Equipment may need to be requested from sports desk.
Outdoor court, walk-in, included. Useful pickup game venue in the evenings when temperatures drop.
Beach and court volleyball organized by the entertainment team. Good way to meet other guests. Included.
On-site paintball area. Verify whether equipment is included in the all-inclusive rate or carries an extra charge at the sports desk.
Dedicated squash court. Walk-in access, included. Good for guests who want a fast-paced workout indoors.
Separate men's and women's fitness centers with full equipment. Both included in the rate. The separation reflects Saudi norms rather than a quality difference.

Scheduled group Pilates. Core-focused sessions, all levels. Included.
