Egyptian real estate developer IL Czar has launched its new project, Safia Ras El Hekma, on the North Coast.

Company chairman and CEO Nader Khozam told Zawya Projects that the 30 billion Egyptian pounds ($636 million) development, spread over an area of 180 acres, will offer hotel apartments and residences.

“Safia will be built on terraces starting from 3 metres to 40 metres with all units enjoying sea views,” said Khozam, adding that it is designed by Raef Fahmy Architects.
