Course Description
Where just a few years ago uncultivated land dominated the landscape, lies today an oasis of greenery in the midst of the desert and one of the most impressive Golf Resorts in the Middle East and North Africa. With the pioneering vision to turn the desert sand into lush green rolling hills, Katameya Heights Golf and Tennis Resort became the first commercial venture to combine golf and real estate in Egypt. With a beautifully designed golf course, its marvelous clubhouse and luxurious villas; Katameya Heights has influenced the corporate landscape of Cairo. Initially perceived as a risky venture to undertake, the long-term vision of the owners is today being vindicated and Katameya Heights has proved an overwhelming success. With the popularity of golf on the rise in Egypt, the number of golfers and golf resorts has kept increasing since Katameya Heights set the trend in 1997, when it first opened its doors. Its real estate development has also raised quality expectancy to a new level in the Egyptian market and has provided Egyptians and expatriates alike with a much-needed alternative suburban lifestyle. The Katameya Heights estate including golf course, club house and residential plots of land covers an area of 1.5 million square meters.
