Properties in Port Ghalib or Marsa Alam

[Shimmsie]

Hi,

I am looking at investing in a property in either Port Ghalib (preferred) or Marsa Alam. There doesn't seem to be much on the internet for either of these two places. My budget will be around £30,000 and I would really like something as close to the sea as possible.

Can anyone help?

Thanks very much.

Not been to either yet, but will be looking in Marsa Alam in Sept for a plot of land for my 2nd development project. Will let you know if anything worthwhile.

Hi Dave,

Thanks for that. Any information would be gratefully received. We stayed in Port Ghalib where the diving was wonderful....totally unspoilt (at the moment!) Fingers crossed you find something.

Have you had any luck finding anything yet? Myself and a group of other investors are considering developing a small complex designed specifically for the norther European market; good size balconies, bathrooms and wet rooms, modern furnishings, ducted air con, plasma teles with satellite in living room. We will be looking for a suitable site in January and hope to launch the project late Spring with completion Summer of 2009. We would be interested in hearing from anyone interested in getting involved. Please PM me for more details.

I have heard some fantastic reports regarding Marsa Alam which is laways the case for a new development area.
I have also been told an airport is already in place,as far as i'm aware building has started on certain projects,however I do not at this moment have any further information available.Once I have something concrete I will post it onto this thread.

[hi there yes we have bought into oasis resort but could be interested in buying other property if everything was right. You will have to keep in touch and let us know how you are getting on.

We have been to Marsa Alam this January, It has it's own airport which only opens when the plains are due to come in.

Hi what did you think to Marsa Alam, what are the pluses and minuses if any?..

Who flies direct to Marsa Alam and where from? Is it as difficult and expensive to get to as Hurghada or are there more or less flights? How much are fares typically?
