Feasibility Study: Development of Medical Resorts for the Elderly
Feasibility Study: Development of Medical Resorts for the Elderly
The project aims to develop integrated medical resorts specifically designed for the elderly, combining luxurious accommodation, specialized healthcare, and social and recreational activities in a safe and serene natural environment. The target audience includes individuals over 60 years of age, both domestic and international health tourists, who seek stable, healthy living with advanced care services.
The resorts will be located in areas known for mild weather and attractive natural landscapes—such as Asir, Taif, or the outskirts of Riyadh—with future potential for expansion into other health tourism destinations across the Kingdom.

Market and Demand Analysis
Market and Demand Analysis
1. Growing Elderly Demographic
Statistics show a steady rise in the elderly population in Saudi Arabia and the wider Middle East due to longer life expectancy and better healthcare. This demographic is expected to double within the next decade, increasing demand for tailored care services.
2. Market Gap in Specialized Medical Resorts
While there are basic care facilities, high-end medical resorts offering integrated therapeutic and hospitality experiences remain rare in the region, presenting a significant market gap.
3. Rising Demand for Medical Tourism
Families in neighboring GCC countries (Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain) increasingly seek long-term care facilities for elderly family members in comfort-driven environments. Saudi Arabia, with its advanced medical infrastructure, is an ideal destination for this niche.
