Cairo, 8 November 2026: Madaar Developments has announced the launch of «Island Three» at the heart of Azha Ain Sokhna. The new phase introduces a residential concept centered on privacy and a direct connection to the water, comprising a private island with 59 standalone villas, each enjoying direct frontage on the crystal lagoon.
Island Three is designed to offer a distinctive living experience, with villas positioned along the island’s waterfront to give every home direct view of the crystal lagoon. This layout enhances residential privacy while providing access to the main beach and the full range of amenities and services at Azha Ain Sokhna, balancing the seclusion of island living with the advantages of an integrated coastal destination.
The launch of Island Three marks the continued development of Azha Ain Sokhna, which has established itself as an integrated coastal destination combining a diverse range of homes with comprehensive amenities and services. The new phase adds a distinctive dimension to the experience through a private island concept that brings together privacy and direct crystal lagoon frontage, complemented by access to Azha’s extensive facilities.
Construction of Island Three is scheduled to begin soon, with unit handovers set to commence within four years.
Commenting on the launch, Eng. Ahmed Ehab, CEO of Madaar Developments, said: “At Madaar, we believe that every destination and every phase of development should be guided by a clear concept and a defined vision that reflect its purpose and give it a distinct identity. Azha Ain Sokhna embodies our vision for integrated coastal destinations that go beyond seasonal stays to offer a complete lifestyle throughout the year. The launch of Island Three builds on this approach, introducing a distinctive residential concept that adds a new dimension to living at Azha and strengthens its position as one of Ain Sokhna’s leading integrated destinations.”
Ehab concluded: “The launch of Island Three is a significant addition to Azha Ain Sokhna and reflects Madaar’s commitment to introducing diverse residential concepts across its projects. Each phase has its own identity and caters to different customer aspirations, while maintaining the integration that defines the destination as a whole.”
Azha Ain Sokhna is located just 12 kilometres from the Ain Sokhna Toll Station, providing easy access from Greater Cairo and the New Administrative Capital via major roads and transport links.
Spanning a total area of 1.6 million square metres, equivalent to approximately 450 feddans, the development comprises 21 residential villages, with more than 1,600 units delivered to date. Its amenities include the Downtown retail and entertainment district, a clubhouse, green spaces, a social club and a hotel resort.
