Tangier, Morocco; June 21, 2008: Emaar Morocco, the country-subsidiary of Emaar Properties PJSC, has completed a dedicated sales centre for Tinja, a 300 hectare (3 million sq m) resort community near Tangiers. The sales centre will host the sale of Aldea apartments in Tinja offering spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean or natural indigenous forests.
Tinja is developed as part of the MAD43.5 billion (AED19.6 billion; US$5.34 billion) Memorandum of Understanding that Emaar Morocco has signed with the Moroccan government. Emaar had launched Aldea, the first phase of villas and town homes in Tinja, to strong investor response through sales in Morocco and Dubai.
Mr Yves Delmar, Chief Executive Officer, Emaar Morocco, said: “Tinja is setting a new benchmark in developing integrated lifestyle communities with its focus on luxury residences, community amenities and hospitality components. The project complements Moroccan government’s Vision 2010 to strengthen the tourism sector and position the country as a preferred destination for investments.”
He added: “With the opening of the new dedicated sales centre, customers will have a better overview of the entire project and its masterplan. Apart from models of the villas, town homes and apartments within the master-planned community, the sales centre will also highlight the various amenities on offer including a vibrant village centre, leisure clubs, forest clubs and other amenities.”
The sales centre is located in Route de la forêt diplomatique CT 8006 and can be easily accessed from the city centre. Customers can call (+212) 61040612 or (+212) 61040627 for more details on Tinja and its various components.
Emaar Morocco will launch apartments in a mix of Californian and Andalusian architectural styles, shortly. Offering sea and forest views, the apartment complexes will feature clubhouses, swimming pools, children’s play areas and landscaped areas. A commercial village with restaurants, retail outlets and boutique office space will add to the convenience of residents.
Emaar is also developing Saphira and Oukaimeden – two mixed-use communities with an emphasis on tourism as part of its MoU with the government. The company has also entered into a joint venture with Onapar, part of the ONA Group, to develop Bahia Bay and Amelkis II & III - projects of development value MAD12.4 billion (AED5.6 billion; US$1.527 billion).
