Also, Abu Soma plans to pump investments of 500 million pounds in Soma Bay this year, he earlier announced, adding that these investments will be driven by delivering 170 units in the project and developing 500,000 square metres there.
“We seek to complete the resort within the next ten years,” El-Missiri referred. Soma Bay is set to include 200 units including villas and apartments as well as chalets with spaces ranging between 100 and 400 square metres.
