Located in the stylish epicenter of Tamuda Bay on the country's northwestern coast, the hotel is slated to open in mid-2020. The property will be part of La Bahia Blanca, a landmark lifestyle resort development being built by Eagle Hills, an Abu Dhabi-based private real estate investment and development company.
The new resort will exude Moroccan charm and pay tribute to the Andalusian cultural legacy through elevated design, exceptional service, and unique food and beverage offerings.

The hotel will include 100 luxuriously-appointed guestrooms and suites with unobstructed sea views and will feature hallmarks of the renowned brand, including the signature St. Regis Butler Service.
The resort's sophisticated culinary offerings will include a specialty restaurant, an all-day dining restaurant featuring a wide range of gourmet selections, and an iconic St. Regis Bar inspired by the King Cole Bar at the brand's flagship in New York, where the world-renowned Bloody Mary cocktail was born in 1934.
Leisure facilities will include a spa, pool, and state-of-the-art fitness center. The St. Regis Tamuda Bay will also offer unrivaled event and meeting spaces, an ideal setting for small and large-scale events.
