From the developers of the highly successful Zafarana Resort further up the Red Sea Riviera comes the Marsa Alam Beach Resort, an exciting new development in the fast up-and-coming Marsa Alam area, world famous through its unspoiled beaches and incredible diving opportunities.

The Marsa Alam Beach Resort is set in over a quarter of a million square meters with half a kilometre of private beach frontage. The resort comprises 1434 units in total and an extremely low building density of just 18%, meaning that the resort encompasses 205,000 square meters of manicured gardens, lawns, pools and communal areas. This ensures that investors and guests alike can take full advantage of the tranquil gardens and surroundings within the resort.

The resort features everything that a guest could possibly need for the perfect break away from the stresses of day-to-day life, with a health centre, sports courts, ten swimming pools, children's play areas, a variety of bars and restaurants - and, of course, the fabulous beachfront itself.

With prices starting from just GBP23,600 / EUR29,500, investors are getting in at the start of what promises to be a world class resort with massive growth potential. Investors opting to purchase two-bedroom units at the development can also opt in to the resort's Guaranteed Rental Programme offering an annual return of 10% for five years. Those investing in the other sizes of units can opt into the rental pool, which also offers the potential for excellent returns, although revenue is not guaranteed.

So whether you are looking for your own private bolthole in the sun, fast capital appreciation in this rapidly developing area, or a good regular income, Marsa Alam Beach Resort is an excellent choice.
