Shams Soma Red Sea by Marakez Developments
Marakez Real Estate Development Company is entering the Red Sea market with the Shams Soma project, a new expansion aimed at providing a coastal community that combines high-quality design with integrated services. This is being done in partnership with Somabay, one of the most prominent tourist destinations on the Red Sea.
The launch of the project aligns with Marakez's strategy of developing integrated projects that not only provide residential units but also offer a complete lifestyle within a unique coastal environment. Shams Soma, in turn, leverages the tourism and service infrastructure of the Somabay area to offer a distinctive experience for those seeking a coastal home that can be enjoyed year-round.
This collaboration between Marakez and Somabay represents a significant step towards developing a destination that blends real estate expertise with the Red Sea's tourism identity. The focus is on providing an atmosphere that combines relaxation, privacy, and diverse activities in one of Egypt's most prestigious coastal destinations.
Shams Soma project represents a new step in Marakez's expansion plan in the coastal development sector. It is the company's second project in this field after Ramla, and simultaneously marks its first presence in the Red Sea region.
The project's launch reflects Marakez's strategy to broaden its operations and reach new destinations beyond its previous markets, particularly areas with promising growth opportunities in the tourism and real estate sectors. Soma Bay is a suitable choice for this strategy, given its coastal location and the potential it offers for integrated projects aimed at year-round residential and investment opportunities.
What does Somabay offer for the Shams Soma project?

Shams Soma benefits from its location within one of the Red Sea's integrated coastal destinations, Somabay, which boasts a sophisticated tourism and service infrastructure developed over many years. This gives the project an added advantage in terms of the variety of facilities and activities available in the surrounding area.
Somabay spans approximately 10 million square meters and is distinguished by its unique coastal setting, surrounded by the sea on three sides. It also enjoys easy access, with a journey time of only about 20 minutes by car from Hurghada International Airport.
The destination's appeal extends beyond beaches and natural beauty. It includes a collection of upscale hotels and resorts, along with more than 20 residential and commercial communities, as well as a beachfront stretching approximately 11 kilometers, providing a wide range of accommodation and entertainment options.
The Soma Bay lifestyle is further enhanced by a marina, world-class golf courses designed by renowned golfer Gary Player, and a range of sports, wellness, and leisure facilities catering to the needs of both residents and visitors.
The significance of these features for Shams Soma lies in the fact that the project doesn't start from a location lacking services and amenities. Instead, it's situated within an existing destination boasting a comprehensive infrastructure of hotels, residential communities, and recreational and sporting facilities. This elevates the residents' experience, allowing them to benefit from the surrounding destination's potential in addition to the project's own services.
Shams Soma Area and Unit Variety

The Shams Soma project spans approximately 340,000 square meters, featuring a low-density urban plan designed to provide residents with greater tranquility and privacy. The project is planned to include over 600 residential units along a 700-meter beachfront.
The project offers a diverse range of residential options, not limited to a single unit style. It combines detached villas, semi-detached apartments, chalets, and loft units, along with a hotel and a range of amenities and services that complement the project's coastal character.
The units are designed to align with a seaside lifestyle, emphasizing outdoor spaces for relaxation and enjoying the open air. Each unit also benefits from views of the Red Sea, depending on its location within the project.
The plan extends beyond residential units, incorporating easily accessible public spaces and open areas. This allows residents to enjoy a variety of activities and spend their time in an environment that blends nature, privacy, and the essence of coastal living.
