First I said Cape Verde and you didn't like it. I said Croatia you said that I shouldn't be saying that and now on Morocco you have said that you have invested there already. Egypt is good for you then. No need to criticise anybody's advice.

Good luck!

Not critiscism, discussion. We cant all be right and pat one another on the back. A mature discussion should enable participants to tease out which investments are best - they cant all be good, thats non sensical.

Croatia is not warm enough in winter and as far as I know has no mega resorts with eberything on one site to extend the season.
Many many Spannish resorts are deserted off season.

I'm looking for similar to that I already invested in Morocco, but in another country.

The Saidia Morocco development is the type I'm looking for elsewher so should have ON - SITE (not, 'close to', but on site) these sorts of season extending facilities;

Multiple gyms (not 1 gym)
At least 2 golf courses (again on site)
A beach (on site not down the road)
Marina
Spas and treatment centres
Several hotels (not just 1) to feed the site with potential future clients
Shops
Mutiple restaurants (not just 2 or 3)
4 or 5* service and facilities
Close to UK
Warm in winter

Why don't you think about TURKEY???For example Didim, Altinkum.
For Investment
Property values are rising by approximately 15 - 20% each year. A 15% growth each year for the next 5 years would see your investment value double.

With rental prices expected at about £500 per week means that just 12 weeks of rental will go along way to covering your running costs and showing a profit.

For it's Climate

Didim has a fantastic climate, with no humidity and 7 months of non stop sunshine. There is no winter in Didim, it is more like autumn in the UK.

Long season

With nearly 8 months of the year, Didim has a long season. This starts in the middle of April and slows down in October. This is an ideal opportunity for those interested in rentals or for people wishing to live in Didim.

Send me a private message to learn the details about it
thanks

I think you should look at somewhere that has good weather year round,Tenerife,Turkey,Cyprus, all provide good investments as well as others like Morocco,Egypt,Cape Verde Islands.

I bought in El Gouna which is a privately owned town 30 minutes north of Hurghada airport. I have lived here for five years now. We have year round sunshine with about ten minutes of rain per year. I chose El Gouna because I wanted to live somewhere that felt completely different to Europe. I bought a Nubian style apartment with domed and vaulted ceilings and arches and with a roof terrace with 360 degree view of the lagoons, sea and mountains and the whole town. I also wanted somewhere I could walk to shops, bars and restaurants without having to fight with a taxi driver over prices every time I go out. As owners here we can use all the facilities of the hotels at a small charge. We have many different beaches and most properties overlook the lagoons or sea. We have a school and hospital and many new off-plan developments together with resales of existing developments. El Gouna is around 15 years old now and owned by Mr Samih Sawiris of Orascom. El Gouna is a big attraction for both scuba divers and kite surfers and the rental market is big for both long term and short term. Flights from Gatwick on Easy Jet to Hurghada.

Not sure if I can post the link to El Gouna's website? elgouna dot com

Sahl Hasheesh is also very beautiful. Each development is owned by a different company. It will take a few more years to take off as it is still like a ghost town without any shops.

I hope this information helps and good luck with wherever you choose to purchase.

You dismiss Croatia too quickly,no mega resorts?
Look at Dubrovnik,is a small city with gorgeous old town,marina,s & beaches,it is busy most of the year,some peeps are boasting 80% occupancy rates per year,just over 2hr flight,£80 return fare if booked in advance.
Golf courses,marina's,5* hotels,beaches can be replicated anywhere in the world,real charm,history & character cannot.
Tourists after 'your itinerary' will simply move on to the next sterile development as & when it becomes available & is cheaper for them to do so.
Otherwise,usual choices,Egypt,Canary isles,Cape Verde,Cyprus,etc.
Your right to focus on rental yields rather than the fickle nature of capital growth
Best of luck whatever u decide.
