Major Progress!






I went up to the hotel at sunset last night to see how its moved on since our last wave day up there. The progress has been huge compared to the rest of the year!
6 of the rooms (there is 24 total) are now fully tiled, bathroom floors and walls and the bedroom floors and edging. They are clearly working their way round the whole place to do this, there are loads of boxes of tiles all over the place waiting to be used.
In the main reception/ restaurant building they have dug out foundations and put cages in, to make the walls inside the shell that is already built.
Outside the buildings they have now laid concrete both sides of the bedrooms to create the pathways between rooms and the beach or reception, and there is a small wall built between the path and what will be the gardens down the middle of all the rooms. Out the front of the hotel they have flattened a lot of the land, and also between the back of the hotel and the beach they have flattened all the dunes which already makes access to the beach much better for us.
This movement has been rapid, and its the most people i have ever seen up there working on the hotel. They have now given us the date of completion as Feb 1st 2010. If they keep this level of improvement up it looks like it may finally come true!

Hello,
looks to be a great spot in Egypt. I live in Cairo and always looking for the best spot - of course, who not. :-)
Do you have a map with the location? I am always traveling with my car. Is the spot easy to find, special marks at the road?
Is the construction of the hotel finished? Nevertheless I will look at it this weekend.
Maybe you have some information for me.
Thank you very much in advance,
Michael
