A unique opportunity to own a luxurious home in one of the most beautiful and breathtaking locations in the world.

Nestled on a hilltop with astounding views of the Red Sea, lies the magnificent Sunset Pearl Beach & Golf Apartments in the exclusive resort of Sahl Hasheesh. Set amidst glistening dunes, palm trees, golf courses and clear waters this prestigious development is composed of 450 apartments offering top quality design and construction.

Known as the Green Valley, Sahl Hasheesh is a development inspired by Egypt’s rich architecture and cultural heritage. Covering an area of 59,000 m2 this community is a stone´s throw away from the spectacular development of SERRENIA, the world´s most spectacular and innovative resort to date.

Easily accessible, this oasis is less than 5 hours from the UK, situated 20 kilometers south of Hurghada International Airport, between Hurghada and Safaga; Luxor and the Valley of the Kings are just 200 kilometers away by road or short flight.

Land of Kings
Egypt is a land of ancient civilizations and monumental historical sites. Its history spanning 7000 years makes it one of the oldest vacation spots in the world. Early Greeks and Romans journeyed here for leisure and to marvel at the wonders of mankind’s earliest triumphs.
A mystical land bustling with life, sound and visual beauty, Egypt is not just the place for visiting pyramids, monuments and temples, but also a country that offers the perfect climate with brilliant sunshine all year round. The ancient Egyptians established a magnificent and enduring civilization whose achievements have captured the imagination of the world ever since.

Egypt cannot forget its glorious past, which contrasts perfectly with all that modern Egypt has to offer - scuba diving in the Red Sea, fine sandy beaches, exclusive nightspots, romantic Nile cruises, 5-star accommodation and a varied and exotic cuisine - making this country such a unique and fascinating place to visit.
