Aiming at flourishing tourism in the Western Desert, Travco Hotels & Resorts (formerly know as Egyptotel) sets a new plot in the Siwa oasis to build the first world-class resort of the area.

 

Siwa oasis, 300 km south Marsa Matrouh and famous for its fascinating scenery, has been recognized by European tourists as one of Egypt’s most attractive medical tourist destinations famous for its hot springs known for their therapeutic nature.

 

Furthermore it has become mostly attractive to visitors seeking relaxation and meditation. For the active ones, possibilities are endless with the safari excursions on offer including desert sand skiing around the oasis, and visiting the mud-brick town of Shali overlooking the oasis; in addition to the ancient monuments like the remains of Amun’s ancient temple with many interesting tombs from the Greek-Roman period.

 

The new two-storey hotel planned is to encompass 120 luxurious rooms, spacious bungalows to be built on stilts over one of Siwa’s natural lakes, a swimming pool with its state of-art pool bar. The property will further include utility area and will be surrounded by a beautiful landscape.
