Thank you Distant dreamer, you're so very helpful. Have a great week! ;-) Cheers
Deae Putneypj,
I think at the end all will depend on your budget but if you looking to a unit to be resell easily I think I would go for El Andalous as distant dreamer said, Palm BEach Piazza which have resale units already as buyers from year ago have 100% profit , also Ocean Breeze, but if your budget is limited go for Paradise Garden its located direct behind the main road between the projects for Sahl and you cross the road to go to the public beach, but you are surrounded with Golf Courses.
May be you should come and see it your self, I think in sahl they organize free tours for projects so one day of your holiday if you come will save you alot
Regards
George
Having just returned form Paradise Gardens i can tell you it is a stunning location.
It is a little over 100m to the beach fromt he nearest point and pretty much every front faicng apartment on the second floor and above will have sea views.
In terms of quality and the security of your money - well the LTI Pyramisa Hotel , is built by the same company and is absolutley stunning - if you want pics of the interior of that building PM me with an emial address. And the developer is worth $750 million so not about to run off anywhere.
Veranda is too far back in my opinion and this bit about golf buggies taking you to the beach is a bit fanciful I feel - 600 + units - how many buggies is that going to need to service everyone?..and getting back after a long day at the beach?
Resale value almost always favours nearer the beach so I'd beware of going 500m back. Imagine dragging any kids back after a day sunbathing.
I chose Veranda on quality, the developer and architect is one of Egypt's most respected men in our game. He has built 5 star hotels, including Accor, Satrawood, Hilton, and Intercontinental...so rather than being a local developer done well, the developer of Veranda is a real 5 star luxury builder.
The studios are a steal, and the 60m2 rooftop terrace option with built in barbecue, sitting area and pergola are proving to be a real deal clincher with buyers seeeking exit strategy.
although further away from the beach than others, people who visit the site are always taken with the stunning view, as the plot is elevated 27m above sea level. Also the villas on Veranda are priced up to £500k, so if you are thinking of buying into a top end resort Veranda is one of the only ones this top end. Remenber the finish on the studios will be the same quality as the villas and the facilities are designed to compliment these high end luxury properties as well as the studios. We have only 12 studios on phase C, so again much better than being 1 in 12 than one in 600!
also living here in hurghada, a bit of advice! being in an apartment block near a hotel is not so nice..they play there music LOUD until well past two in the morning most nights...so the more exclusive golf areas are more desirable for the relaxing, spa holiday...
The golf buggies will run free all day to ferry people the short ride to the beach and back, considering the journey takes a couple of minutes, no one will have to wait too long to be picked up.
I think Veranda will rise to be the top choice..after all, it has been designed to be the most up market, and beautifully designed resort on Sahl..don't worry about it being snobby or anything..I promise you that everyone who has chosen Veranda so far are lovely relaxed people!

Thanks Ross for The info its goodyou joined us as you are the expert in this project and know it better than anyone
Thanks for the info Ross and as the information was asked for, can I just clarify that the Overseas Property For Sale link is located at the top of the page.
The master plan for sahl hasheesh is also on the veranda post in the property for sales section, as well as a full spec and run down of facilities.
currently there are plans for 46 hotels, plus new develepments of villas, and apartments and amenities coming on line all the time. The golf courses, are being designed by kurt rossknecht, a german course designer. There will be an entertainment area, with proposed casino and cinema. On the plot next to Veranda. There is extremely limited amount of beach front apartments, especially with sea views, as most beach front is given to hotels.
There are public beach areas, and all manner of watersports will be available
jet skis, water ski, diving, windsurf, parasailing etc...
The marina is called serrenia, please find and follow the serrenia thread on this site where i have just posted up some new press releases. The marina is scheduled for 2011, and is has been designed by Lord Norman Foster Associates. There will be a private airport and helipad, plus golf course and racing track for hi-performance cars. I have pictures of the design and it is 25th Century! A lot of UK buyers question if the market can afford Serrenia, however as a local now to Hurghada, I can tell you there is a big summer scene here for visiting gulf arabs, who come to Egypt to let their hair down and drink and party, pleasures they cannot enjoy back home. These visitors have oodles of $doodles.
The most important news so far of late is that a new boss has been elected to run ERC and Sahl Hasheesh. Owners might have noticed the new sign on arrival, the new green grass everywhere, the new trees, landscaping, and teams of workers, keeping the whole site clean and looking much more like the 5 star resort community it has set out to be.
The Hotels that are close to opening, and the Plaza are hoping to be open early this summer.
Hi Lyndsay, I'm not sure if you are still looking, but you might be interested to know that Dishdaba is just about to be launched at Sahl Hasheesh. This is on plot 102 just behind the Old Town. It is a development of Villas and Apartments, although most of the villas in phase 1 are now reserved. The properties are available in two designs - Tunisian and Moroccan, and look traditional with domes etc. Dishdaba includes its own Souk and has apartments available in the Souk that should be great for people who like to live right in the heart of the action. There are quieter apartments available as well, on the highest point of the development, which is approx 50m above sea level. As Dishdaba is a tiered resort, set out on the slopes leading up to the golf course, all properties should get superb views over the Sahl Hasheesh bay. Price for all properties are GBP1000 per sqm, but we have discounts available for a short time. The full price list will be released as soon as the final plans/licences have been approved.
I have received an e-mail from the Paradise Gardens developers stating they have changed the design of some of their apartments. A few of the three bedroom apartments have beed changed to two one bedroom apartments.
Hello everyone, is there anyone already bought in this new off- plan complex? Any kind of informations about the Azzurra Sahl Hasheesh project itself, location, Company structure, developer, building skedule,etc.etc.
Any feedback please anyone?
