About Ras Soma Residences
Ras Soma Residences is a luxury beachfront community on Egypt’s Red Sea coast, offering a rare combination of private beach living, dramatic natural surroundings and world-class resort amenities. It is developed by Travco Properties, the real estate arm of Travco Group – one of Egypt’s largest tourism and hospitality groups and the developer of Makadina and Almaza Bay.
The project stretches along 1.6 km of private beachfront, with sandy lagoons, outdoor swimming pools, artificial lakes and landscaped waterfront areas. Residents will enjoy a clubhouse, gym, spa and wellness centre, restaurants and a beach club, padel, tennis, football and volleyball courts, a sports club, a children’s playground, a medical centre, a commercial strip and mall, Wadi Park, marina access and a five-star Steigenberger hotel.
Homes include beachfront villas, shore villas and apartments with sea or pool views, and private gardens on selected units – all offered from just 5% down with 7 years to pay.
Who is behind the project?
Ras Soma Residences is developed by Travco Properties. Our team checks the contract and delivery terms with you before you commit.
Life at Ras Soma Residences
Life at Ras Soma Residences is defined by the sea and the mountains. Walk straight from your villa onto the private beach, swim in the sandy lagoons, sail or dive from the marina, and end the day at the beach club or the Steigenberger hotel. Sports courts, a wellness centre and Wadi Park keep everyone active.
Soma Bay’s golf course and luxury resorts are close by, Safaga is a short drive, and Hurghada International Airport is around 40–50 minutes away.
Holiday home, rental or both
Many buyers at Ras Soma Residences use their apartment for a few weeks a year and rent it out the rest of the time. Studios and one-bedroom units are popular with couples and short-stay visitors, while larger apartments attract families who come for longer holidays. Professional management partners can handle guests, cleaning and maintenance while you are away, so you can earn from your property without being in Hurghada.
Why Soma Bay?
Soma Bay is a private peninsula about 45 km south of Hurghada, surrounded by the Red Sea on three sides. It is one of Egypt’s most exclusive resort destinations, with five-star hotels, the Cascades championship golf course, a thalasso spa, a marina, world-class kitesurfing and some of the best diving on the coast.
Because the peninsula is privately managed and land is limited, Soma Bay attracts buyers looking for premium holiday homes, quiet luxury and long-term value. Hurghada International Airport is around 45 minutes away, and the nearby Ras Soma and Safaga coast are adding new beachfront communities.
What to check before you buy
When choosing a unit at Ras Soma Residences, compare floors and orientations, as views and sunlight vary between buildings. Ask about the maintenance deposit and yearly service charges, the exact finishing specification and the delivery terms in the contract. Our team explains each payment option clearly, confirms the details in writing and follows progress for you until handover.
Buying safely with Rook
Whether you are buying your first holiday home or adding to a portfolio, the process at Ras Soma Residences is straightforward with the right support. We start by understanding your budget and goals, then send you the latest price list, floor plans and available units, and compare them honestly with similar projects nearby.
Before you pay anything, our team reviews the developer’s track record, the project’s progress and the sales contract, and explains every important clause in plain language – delivery dates, maintenance, resale and rental rules. Payments always go directly to the developer’s official bank account against a receipt, and we keep copies of every document for you.
After the purchase, we stay in touch with updates until handover, and our partners can help with furnishing, rental management and maintenance, so your apartment is ready to enjoy or earn from as soon as it is delivered.
Living in Soma Bay all year
Many buyers choose Ras Soma Residences not only as a holiday home but as a place to live for part or all of the year. Supermarkets, pharmacies, clinics, international schools, gyms, banks and a wide choice of restaurants and cafés are all within easy reach. Winters are mild and sunny, which is why many European owners spend several months here between October and April.
Beaches, diving centres and boat trips to the islands are close by, so weekends can be spent snorkelling, sailing or simply relaxing by the sea, while the resort’s own facilities make everyday life comfortable.
