World-renowned football icon Cristiano Ronaldo and his fiancée, Georgina Rodriguez, have purchased residential units at Nujuma, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve located within the Red Sea International destination in Saudi Arabia.
The homes are part of the Red Sea Residences, a collection of exclusive properties spread across private islands stretching over 26 kilometers. Access to the area is limited to boats or seaplanes, ensuring complete privacy and exclusivity for residents.
Nujuma features 19 fully autonomous luxury villas designed to offer a rare blend of privacy, individuality, and a close connection to nature. Ronaldo and Rodriguez have acquired two villas — one with three bedrooms and another with two bedrooms — allowing the family to enjoy a serene and secluded retreat at any time.
Speaking about the decision, Ronaldo said that both he and Georgina felt an immediate connection to the destination during their first visit.
“From our very first moment here, we felt a deep connection with the island and its extraordinary natural beauty,” he said. “It is truly a remarkable place — one where we find peace and tranquility.”
The Red Sea Residences are part of Saudi Arabia’s ambitious Red Sea Global project, a flagship luxury tourism development along the Kingdom’s western coast. The initiative aims to establish world-class resorts and destinations while transforming the region into a unique global leisure hub.
The project places strong emphasis on environmental sustainability. Designed to achieve a net positive environmental impact of 30 percent by 2040, it includes conservation and restoration efforts for coral reefs, mangroves, seagrass beds, and local ecosystems.
The CEO of Red Sea International said Ronaldo and Rodriguez’s decision reflects the project’s unique appeal.
“We are delighted to welcome Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez to the Red Sea Residences community,” he said. “This destination represents the perfect balance of luxury, nature, privacy, and adventure.”
Enhancing its global accessibility, Red Sea International Airport now offers direct connections to Riyadh, Jeddah, Dubai, Doha, and Milan. The destination can be reached within three hours by approximately 250 million people, and within eight hours by 85 percent of the world’s population.
The Red Sea project continues to gain international attention under Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, attracting high-profile guests and global investors seeking exclusive, environmentally conscious luxury living.
