A complete overview of Alam Al Roum by Qatari Diar
Alam Al Roum North Coast project is one of the major real estate and touristic developments in the North Coast during 2026, developed by Qatari Diar around a vision of an integrated coastal city operating year-round rather than a seasonal summer destination. It extends over nearly 4,902 acres, equivalent to more than 20.5 million square meters.
Alam Al Roum features a direct beachfront stretching 7.2 kilometers along the Mediterranean coast, alongside a network of lagoons extending nearly 22 kilometers inside the city, making water the essential element of the urban design.
Alam Al Roum delivers an integrated residential and touristic experience combining luxury, nature and modern infrastructure, with a wide range of units including chalets, townhouses, twin houses and standalone villas with varied views over the sea or the crystal lagoons.
In the first phase the project is divided into two main districts: Sandside Lagoons, overlooking the lagoons and the inner sandy beaches, and Sealine Estates, an exclusive collection of villas with direct sea views, giving buyers options suited to summer use, year-round living or long-term investment.
Alam Al Roum North Coast enjoys a strategic location among its most prominent advantages, in the heart of the western North Coast region, one of Egypt’s fastest growing areas for touristic and real estate investment.
Qatari Diar selected the location carefully to be close to the main transport axes and major development projects, ensuring easy access from different governorates and enhancing its long-term investment value.
This places the project at the heart of an area witnessing unprecedented development, especially with the mega projects along the North Coast, giving Alam Al Roum a strong chance to become one of Egypt’s most prominent integrated coastal destinations — for living, holidays or investment — benefiting from modern infrastructure and a location combining tranquility with easy access to key destinations and services.

In developing Alam Al Roum North Coast, Qatari Diar adopted a modern urban vision aiming to create an integrated coastal city that combines living, tourism and investment in one environment.
The design achieves the highest levels of comfort and privacy, benefiting from the beachfront extending 7.2 kilometers, alongside crystal lagoons running through the city’s districts and giving a large share of units direct water views. The master plan relies on a balanced distribution of areas:
Construction ratios in Alam Al Roum
The project was designed according to a balanced urban plan, with the following allocation:
60% of the project area for residential construction.
25%for green spaces, landscaping and open areas.
15%for services, commercial and entertainment areas.
This division aims to create a comfortable residential environment while preserving open spaces and nature inside the project.
The engineering firm behind the project planning
Qatari Diar engaged one of the world’s largest urban design and planning firms, Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM), to develop the master plan of Alam Al Roum. SOM is known for decades of experience designing iconic cities and buildings worldwide.
The firm set an integrated urban vision merging natural elements with modern infrastructure. Its role shows clearly in the distribution of residential districts, their connection to the road network and services, and the orientation of as many units as possible toward the sea or the crystal lagoons.
It also designed vibrant urban centers with commercial and entertainment activities, achieving the concept of a sustainable coastal city operating throughout the year.
Design of Alam Al Roum North Coast
Phases of Alam Al Roum North Coast
Alam Al Roum North Coast is developed over successive phases, each executed to a studied plan ensuring infrastructure and services are delivered in parallel with the release of residential units.
First phase: Sandside Lagoons
The first phase is the official launch of the project, divided into two main districts, each with its own architectural character and features:
Sandside Lagoons
Sandside Lagoons is the first residential district, distinguished by direct views over the crystal lagoons and the inner sandy beaches. It includes a diverse range of units:
Chalets.
Townhouses.
Twin houses.
Standalone villas.
The district was designed to suit those seeking a quiet life amid nature, with easy access to services and entertainment areas.
Sealine Estates phase in Alam Al Roum
Sealine Estates is the most luxurious district within the first phase, an exclusive collection of premium villas extending from the sixth row up to the first row on the Mediterranean, with direct or panoramic sea views depending on each villa’s position.
It is characterized by low density, generous areas and high privacy, meeting the needs of clients seeking an upscale living experience in one of the finest locations inside the project.
In the upcoming phases, Qatari Diar plans to add new residential districts, international hotels, business areas, and entertainment and commercial facilities, so Alam Al Roum becomes an integrated coastal city accommodating residents and visitors year-round, not only in summer.
Phases of Alam Al Roum North Coast
Alam Al Roum North Coast master plan explained
The master plan reflects a vision different from traditional coastal developments, as Qatari Diar designed an integrated city combining living, tourism, business and entertainment within one urban plan.
It was prepared by SOM (Skidmore, Owings & Merrill) to balance nature with modern urban structure and ensure maximum benefit from the beachfront and inner lagoons.
First: a beachfront extending along the city
The project features 7.2 kilometers of direct Mediterranean frontage, with residential areas distributed so the largest possible share of units enjoys sea or water views, while keeping easy beach access from all parts of the project instead of concentrating premium units in the first rows only.
Second: a lagoon network running through the entire project
Among the most prominent elements is the lagoon network extending nearly 22 kilometers inside the city, branching from more than one point to reach most residential districts. It provides water views for a large number of units and creates a milder environment and open spaces resembling international resorts.
Third: a vibrant commercial and entertainment heart
At the center lies an urban hub with a wide commercial and entertainment area designed as the main meeting point inside the city, including retail streets, restaurants and cafes, walking spaces and areas dedicated to events, ensuring continuous movement throughout the year, not only in summer.
Fourth: an international marina on the Mediterranean
The master plan allocates a full beachfront area for an international marina accommodating yachts and boats, with surrounding marine, commercial and hospitality services, becoming one of the project’s landmarks and strengthening its position as a touristic and investment destination on the Mediterranean.
Fifth: a balanced distribution of residential districts
Instead of grouping units in one area, the residential districts were divided into independent communities separated by green spaces, lagoons and main roads, allowing variety in living patterns between chalets, townhouses, twin houses and villas, with different views over the sea, the lagoons and the open spaces.
Sixth: a road network connecting all areas
The plan shows main and ring roads connecting all residential districts with the commercial areas, the marina and the beaches, with several project entrances to ease movement and reduce travel time between areas.

The project targets those seeking long-term investment, especially with the western North Coast heading toward becoming an international destination for living and tourism rather than a summer season only.
Key investment advantages in Alam Al Roum North Coast:
A project developed by the international Qatari Diar:
the name Qatari Diar gives strong investment confidence, being an international developer with wide experience in mega projects and a huge portfolio across global markets.
A strategic location in the heart of the western North Coast:
the project is close to the most important axes and vital areas such as Ras El Hekma, Dabaa Road, the International Coastal Road and Marsa Matrouh International Airport, enhancing accessibility and raising its future investment value.
One of the largest North Coast projects in area and planning:
the project extends over about 4,902 acres with a beachfront of 7.2 kilometers, giving it the components of an integrated coastal city rather than a touristic village with limited services.
Investing in a coastal city that operates year-round:
the project relies on a new concept for the North Coast by providing integrated residential, commercial, service and entertainment areas, increasing the chances of operating and benefiting from the unit year-round rather than during the summer months only.
An international design raising the future value of the project:

International services supporting resale and rental:
a yacht marina, golf course, commercial areas, event centers, sports clubs and educational and medical services make the project more attractive to residents and visitors, increasing the chances of higher unit values.
Benefiting from the growth of Ras El Hekma and the western North Coast:
the western North Coast is witnessing major development with many national and investment projects, making owning a unit in a strong project like Alam Al Roum an opportunity to benefit from rising land and property values in the area.
Buying in the early phases gives a greater investment advantage:
the first phases of mega projects usually have competitive launch prices compared to later phases, and with construction progress and the expected demand, units may see a gradual growth in their market value.
Is buying a unit in Alam Al Roum North Coast a profitable investment?
Investment opportunities inside Alam Al Roum increase with buying in the first phase of the project, as opening prices of early phases are usually lower compared to later phases, and once parts of the project are completed, services start operating and demand rises, the market value of the units may increase.
However, the final investment decision depends on choosing the unit type and its location inside the project, and studying the payment plan and the expected return in line with the buyer’s goals, whether for living or investment.
