Egyptian developer Ajna Developments is planning to start the construction of its 3 billion pounds ($192 million) hospitality project Carnelia, located in Galala Ain Sokhna City, by the end of 2021, the company's chief commercial officer said.

Sherif Saleh told Zawya Projects that enabling, and infrastructure works for the 100-acre development have started and the main construction is scheduled to begin by end-2021.

He said the project, which includes 1,200 villas and chalets, and a 50-key boutique hotel, would be completed by end-2026.
