Will hurghada have oversupply of beds ?

[awahee123]

I think demand is there now,I was talking to a friend of mine who is a manager in the red sea hotel chain,he assured me there's no rooms available at christmas as the dutch usualy book them up.
I didn't really discuss any other parts of the year but I think Hurghada and the surrounding developments will become very popular throughout the year.

Yes ...the demand for rooms is a problem at the moment.
My sister came out on the Tuesday Thomas cook flight last week and when she was flying back we couldn't understand the times on the ticket.
When we called into the office here we were told that because of lack of rooms they were combining flights...her flight flew to gatwick..dropped off then flew on to manchester

Personally I do not think that the new apartments being built will produce an over supply of beds, at least not in the short term. What is needed is a more organised agency for bringing the availability of rooms together, maybe in a dedicated Egypt rentals site, and matching this to the demand.

Maybe we could start one on this site,any thoughts anybody???

Here's a new rental agency that seems relatively efficient in my first dealings with them:

Red Sea Rentals ~ Self catering sea view properties and more ~

I have been looking at rental prices recently and prices are higher than I had expected. I need to rent a two bed apartment near the centre in the New Year and I would be interested to get feedback on what I need to pay. Apartment must be furnished and with ADSL connection.
