On their price list it gives a total price, which clearly states including "side areas". It doesn't seem very fair if you are expected to pay extra to the price you have originally been quoted and as you say makes it a very expensive project. For this sort of price you'd definitely be better considering Sahl Hasheesh or even El Gouna, where you can see what you are getting for your money!
I am still awaiting confirmation with regards to extra potential costs relating to the community area.

One thing investors don't like are surprises.
