Did you know that Sharm El Sheikh is going through a huge development by
beeing soon the place with the world’s lagest lagoon and a new Down Town in
world class? This project will really boost the real estate market and attract
more tourisits from all over the world!
Egypt will turn to water, and
massive amounts of it, in a bid to attract more visitors and real estate
investors to its shores.
During the coming years, the
city of Sharm El Sheikh will unveil a $5.5 billion real estate development,
featuring 12 giant lagoons, the largest of which measures a staggering 8.8
hectares in size.
Created by Crystal Lagoons,
the same team behind the eight-hectare behemoth in Chile’s San Alfonso
del Mar Resort (which incidentally holds
the current Guinness record of largest pool in the world), the project
nicknamed City of Stars will feature 30,000 luxury residences, a string of
five-star hotels, golf courses, even a museum and shopping mall. These will be
arranged around the 12 lagoons that dot the landscape.
According to a spokesperson
from Crystal Lagoons, the water source for the pool will likely come from the
Red Sea, which is a mere three kilometers away. Using Crystal Lagoons’ patented
water filtering technology, the pools only need to be filled once, after which
the water will be constantly circulated, filtered and disinfected.
City of Stars in Sharm el
Sheikh is the first of four similar mega-projects that Crystal Lagoons is
developing with local Egyptian partners, Pyramids Plaza and Citystars Holding.
Other projects in the pipeline include a $12 billion
dollar project in Soma Bay with 18 lagoons, 10 hotels and 50,000 residences,
two 18-hole golf courses, shopping districts and a water theme park.
