The Hacienda del Alamo Project

The Project

The whole development will occupy some 600 hectares. When finished the entire complex will consist of two 18 hole Championship Golf courses which have been designed by Dave Thomás. There will also be a village with all the necessary commercial areas; a Spanish Pueblo, an hotel of some 150 rooms, with all the latest facilities; also tennis courts, a driving range golf academy, horse riding facilities and football pitches for off season training practice which will ensure a complete range of services and activities.

The Development

Resort Development Associates have been able to create an American style resort with the majority of housing development located on island areas within the Golf course, creating plenty of front line villa plots. The development will be managed in stages so that each "phase" is completed before moving on to the next island or locale to avoid any noise or disturbance to existing occupiers. The completed development will consist of some 1,800 homes.

The creative philosophy behind Hacienda del Alamo ensures a complete range of accommodation for sale ranging from condominiums, bungalows, semi-detached and individual houses at discounted prices, designed to fit all requirements. All the plots have a particular house type assigned to it. When choosing a plot the purchaser will see the house type and floor plan allocated to that individual location.

History

The site was purchase by ARMILAR a major development company based in Barcelona who have combined with La Caixa Catalunia one of Spain's largest savings banks to create a management company combining the highest level of development skills with the complete financial solvency required to ensure a secure future for potential residents and investors.

RDA and staff have a wealth of experience acquired in other similar ventures and will look after investors every requirements whilst ensuring standards are maintained throughout to the highest degree.

Future

In the summer of 2002 work commenced on site, after the appropriate planning consents and guarantees were in place. Pre-launch sales were such that phase 1B was advanced in order to fulfil the extraordinary demand from investors who heard of and visited the site whilst in the area. Show houses are currently under construction as the implementation of the site infrastructure is developed and continues so that by December 2002 the road work throughout the entire initial development area will be completed.

The first 18 hole golf course has a guaranteed completion date in April 2004 though the planning and development stage would suggest December 2003. House construction commences in October 2002 and for Phase 1 should be completed by the end of 2003. The expertise and management skills on site are of the highest level so that along with the speed and efficiency, quality controls and design standards remain the highest priority.
