El Mamsha, Hurghada: The Newer Development Area Guide
El Mamsha is where much of Hurghada’s newer development is concentrated. It is the part of the city many people mean when they say they want somewhere modern and close to the sea.
What to expect
Newer streets and buildings, and a setting built more recently than the old town of El Dahar. Because the area is still developing, the mix of buildings, roads and services can change from one stretch to another.
Who it suits
It suits buyers and visitors who want a modern setting and are comfortable with an area that is still growing. It may not suit someone who wants an established neighbourhood with a long-settled community.
What to check before choosing it
Walk the area, do not only look at brochures. Check what is finished and what is still under construction nearby. Ask about access roads, parking and the walking distance to the sea. Ask the developer what the building includes and who manages it after handover.
Compare before you decide
Look at more than one district. Our districts guide shows how the main areas compare.
Common questions
Is El Mamsha finished?
Newer development is concentrated there, so parts may still be changing. Visit in person.
Life along the Mamsha
The Mamsha is known as a place to walk and to be near the sea. It is where newer development is concentrated, so you will see recently built streets and buildings. Beaches such as Dream Beach in the Mamsha area charge an entrance fee that covers loungers and facilities. See our beach guide for how public and day-use beaches work.
Because the area is growing
Ask what is finished and what is still under construction nearby, and how that affects noise and views. Ask who manages the building, how parking works and how long it takes to reach the airport.
How Abtal helps you find the right information
We are a construction and development company. We own the land, develop and build our projects, and sell directly to you, so the person you speak with can answer about the building itself. Before you visit, we can search out the facts that matter to you, such as the drive time to the beach or the airport, what the building includes and what is available today. If we do not know something, we say so and check it, instead of guessing.
When you visit, we walk you through the project and its surroundings, so you see the area rather than a brochure. After the sale, our customer service team stays your point of contact. Start from our contact page and tell us what you are looking for.
Talk to the people who build
We are a construction and development company, so you can ask us about our own projects directly. Tell us what matters to you, such as budget, the distance to the beach or airport, or whether you want to live there or visit, and we will point you to the right person. You can reach us from our contact page, or see all Abtal projects.
