I spent a two-week vacation in Saudi Arabia earlier this year. My experience is that SA can be quite affordable or as expensive as you want it to be depending on the level of comfort, service and your taste.
The visa on arrival is 480 SAR (135 $). A night in a budget accomodation in Jeddah 50 to 100 $ or less. A night at the Marriot, Hilton, Mövenpick or Ritz Carlton in Jeddah 250 to 300 $. A luxury resort in Al Ula 300 to 500 $.
A short cab ride in Jeddah is 7 to 10 $ and a cab from the airport to the citycenter in Riyadh about 35 $.
